About Her
Overview... a waitress at a New York City restaurant. Alas, life has passed her by somewhat. Weary of the world, she lives with the anxiety of just existing: “I'm afraid. I'm afraid to be alone, I'm afraid not to be alone. I'm afraid of what I am, what I'm not, what I might become, what I might never become.”
Personality... sweet, nervous, and perhaps a little depressed. When she meets the new short-order cook who has just left prison, Johnny, she might have met her match. Johnny is struggling with his own self-worth as well, and the two might be able to bring each other out of their funks.
