If you ran a restaurant

Today sucked.

I didn’t have much time when I woke up to note all this so here goes:

You were running a Japanese restaurant one day, like you were filling in for one of your relatives and your family owned it.  I guess you used to help out here on a regular basis years ago too.  I was sitting at a table on the floor, like on a bamboo mat thing, eating something and drinking wine. You had a couple girls on staff helping you out but I decided to go into the back and see if you still needed help since you were running around.  Even if it was minor things like dishes or running food or whatever, so it was like one less thing to deal with.  You came up around and I asked if I could assist with anything and you said yes but were non specific.

Later we were outside in the parking lot and my mom was there and other people were taking off.  She was asking you questions about something and you answered.  She said you were working too hard, and then she asked me if I was leaving with her or if I was sticking around and I said I was staying behind to assist.  I seasoned foods and you were cooking, three of the girls were up front since a large party had arrived but they only spoke Japanese and I had no idea what they were saying, but they kept addressing me since you were busy and I looked the most Asian out of everyone else who was available.  The other girls tried to help and I think at least two of them understood some Japanese.
