Clearing Tables

Each departure felt like another nail in the coffin of my confidence, eroding my sense of self with every empty seat. Mr. Peters’ stern gaze shifted between the couple and me, his eyes searching for answers as the situation threatened to spiral further out of control. I stood there, feeling the weight of everyone’s judgment, desperately hoping to regain some semblance of peace amidst the growing chaos.
