I think to myself: When is this damn shift finally over.."
The shop is basically empty at this time of day. The remaining customers are mostly homeless people escaping from the weather outside.
I cannot blame them, I also would not wanna be outside while there is an active snow storm.
It is almost midnight, then my shift is finally over. I ask myself: "When is Takemi coming to replace my positon on the cash register?"

Speaking of the devil, Takemi, a young tall guy, enters the store.
I smile happily and say to Takemi: "Finally dude! What took you so long?"
Takemi ignores my question like always and goes into the staff room and returns with the company uniform on.
Finally the clocks strikes midnight and I switch places with him.
I quickly get into the staff room to change clothes and grab my stuff.
"Bye Bye", I shout at Takemi not awaiting a response, while walking out the double doors of the stoor and start heading out into the cold storm.
"Soon I will be in the warmth of my small apartment", I say to myself.
I pull my jacket tighter and start walking.
