Chapter 35: Past Mistakes of an Officer
Joe just got off a bus and started walking along the street. It was the morning after they discussed going to the east end.
They couldn’t drive a vehicle into St Vaal street, as it was an old street that wasn't designed to have vehicles driven on it. So, he left his vehicle at home today and opted to take a bus to Benny’s today, with the intention of walking to St Vaal street from there.
He continued to walk along the street until he stood in front of the familiar diner. He could already smell tea being brewed and greasy bacon being cooked. It whetted his appetite. He loved the food here and how cheap it was. He suggested meeting here so he could get a good meal before heading off to the east end.
He pushed open the eatery's front door, ringing a bell, informing the waitress of his presence. A familiar cat girl mutant turned her head towards Joe with a smile and greeted him.
Jenny: “Hello Joe. Your friend is already here at your usual table,” she said.
Joe: “Oh, Mikey is here already?”
Jenny: “No, it’s your other friend. The new guy,” she said, while pointing to Joe’s regular table.
Joe turned his head and sitting at a table was Dan, waving his hand at him. He nodded to Jenny and then walked over to the table and took a seat beside Dan.
Joe: “I see you're up and early.”
