Dino invites me to movies, baseball games, and concerts, but the diner’s got a policy against co-workers dating, so I never say yes. I hate turning him down. He seems like a great guy. Funny. Smart. Motivated. The other waitresses tell me I should go for it. Live a little for once.
On breaks, Dino and I sit out on the back stoop, discussing the future. Dino tells me he’s going to night school, says he doesn’t want to spend the rest of his life making omelets and French toast.
What’s in my future?
Who knows?
Maybe Dino.

Sweet read! Loved the theme of looking towards the future, for Dino career-wise and for the main character romance-wise
