It was my second day, Marry started to teach my how to scan and key in the amount of money that customer gave. She even let me do it by myself as she standing by my side and help me to pack things. I makes some of the mistakes and it make me realize that she didn't really have a nice temper. I laugh awkwardly as I getting scold by her.

Time passed and it almost closing time and there's time where the market doesn't have so many customer, I was standing and leaning on the counter with Marry as she started this conversation.

While waiting for us to finished, Mornica started to talk about a guy who when to counter 7 which is opposite with counter 6, and ready to close the counter just like Mornica.
