Never underestimate the power of communication (6th of April)

Again,Nan forgot his got something's on

he only knew that he had a group meeting right after he finished installing the MS

No time to help me look for the activator

he left

and promised that he would come back tomorrow

Photos sorting out

files saving

plus heaps of things I planned to do much earlier

was all done

but work, no productivity at all

Tonight, I felt the power from the relationship amongst people

that is when I went to this restaurant with mum to celebrate our Easter together

At first, the whole restaurant was all crowded

a long queue that you wouldn't normally see from any of the restaurants in this suburb

we could hear the kids' giggling, parents' yelling

the bad parenting making me sick...

Mum and I were in the line of waiting

while this woman came to us, asking if we could be seated at the same table

since there seemed to be zero seats

but the food there was really tempted

we agreed with her, waiting for our turn to be called by the waiter

..............

Next, we were finally invited to get in and sit at a corner where we hardly could be seen by the waiters...
Mum was being a bit fussy about the seats being dirty
then again, not liking the food I ordered..
as the wraps were pretty troublesome when eating them...
I was thinking that's why I didn't want to take her there
because she ruined the fun sometimes by picking on little things
letting us both not happy..

I then was forced to ask the waitress whether that wraps were the right food I order from the menu..
The waitress gave me this 'duh' look saying "it is what you ordered, no.42"
I kindly asked if I could have the menu to check what no.42 is
she went all grumpy and despised as if I owed her something
For the god sake, I was rooted with this super bad impression on her because of that
Plus...mum saw the one she disliked who also went to this same restaurant
and sitting just right 2 tables away from us
Everything was just so negative
from people, food, and the minor argument I had with her
....

Until at the very end of the dinner
the lady who was sitting with us at the same table said
if we couldn't finish the food
just get take-away
since I ordered the wrong thing and caused us order a little bit more than we could actually eat
her words were really comforting

Then this waitress who gave me this dirty face much earlier smiled at us all in a sudden as she walked past
Maybe she has heard us talking about how rude she was before that
and I never had realised she might understand
because when I go cranky
I say what I want
as her and my mum's eyes met
they smiled at each other
mum firstly initiated the conversation by asking if she felt tired
she nodded with a big smile on her face
the next thing is
she came to our table quite often
helping us to clean this and that
and getting us a take away box with a tiny box of sauce
nice enough
with a completely different attitude that she had much earlier
which both the parties had compromised
I, as a customer felt her kindness, and having all her respect back
she, as a waitress, would have been so warmth when received caring from an customer
that power grew between the customer and waitress in the use of communication
is what it should be seen as the most important
same applies to any relation we have in life
we might lack of understanding the ones working their asses off
miscommunication could be the catalyst of hatred and disagreement
to work that out and be friendly with others like we used to be
start with some little things and caring to make them feel loved
the hardest step is only dependent on your choice to go across or not
and we all have learned
to accept, to forgive, to love, and hoping all these coming back to us..
