Maggie was the most attentive waitress in a busy restaurant\u2014especially when young adult couples came in on dates.<\/p>\n
She could spot a first date before they even ordered: he\u2019d pretend to understand the wine list, and she\u2019d pretend she wasn\u2019t checking the prices.<\/p>\n
One Friday evening, a handsome young man arrived with his date and requested the most secluded booth.<\/p>\n
\u201cOf course,\u201d Maggie said. \u201cSomewhere romantic, or somewhere your credit card can cry in private?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cRomantic,\u201d he replied confidently.<\/p>\n
Throughout dinner, Maggie kept their glasses full, dimmed the little table lamp, and somehow appeared every time they needed anything.<\/p>\n
Finally, the young man leaned across the table and whispered to his date, \u201cYou know, I\u2019m very generous, I have incredible stamina, and I always make sure a woman is completely satisfied.\u201d<\/p>\n
Maggie appeared beside him.<\/p>\n
\u201cWonderful! Would you like to prove that tonight?\u201d<\/p>\n
His date blushed. He straightened his collar.<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat did you have in mind?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cThe bill, three flights of stairs to our rooftop terrace, and the dessert menu.\u201d<\/p>\n
The woman burst out laughing.<\/p>\n
After dessert, the man discreetly asked Maggie, \u201cHow do you always know the exact moment to come over?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cTwenty years of experience, sweetheart.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cSo you can tell when a couple has chemistry?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cOh, absolutely.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cAnd when things are about to get serious?\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cEven easier.\u201d<\/p>\n
\u201cHow?\u201d<\/p>\n
Maggie glanced at his date, then handed him<\/strong> the bill.<\/p>\n \u201cShe\u2019s stopped laughing at your jokes and started asking whether you own your house.\u201d<\/strong>\ud83d\ude02<\/span><\/span>\ud83e\udd23<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Maggie was the most attentive waitress in a busy restaurant\u2014especially when young adult couples came in on dates.
