Chapter 4.16 – The Zombie Restaurant
https://i.imgur.com/rqW8v8V.png
The Cranberries - Zombie
Another head hangs lowly
Child is slowly taken
And the violence caused such silence
Who are we mistaken?
But you see, it's not me, it's not my family
In your head, in your head they are fighting
With their tanks, and their bombs, and their bombs, and their guns
In your head, in your head they are crying
In your head, in your head
Zombie, zombie, zombie
What's in your head? In your head?
Zombie, zombie, zombie
...
An excerpt from Inguns private journal:
There's a war in my head
And I don't know who's on the winning side
They are fighting, they are fighting..
They are tearing me apart
And its like I don't know myself anymore
Did I ever?
Now that I have learned that Ingun, Natalies sister, actually also works at the same restaurant, I want to follow them for a shift! Natalie and Ingun must talk when they are at work, maybe.. I suppose it would be weird if they didn't!

The restaurant employees on the way to work.
Ramona Velle-Bentsen – Boss/Head chef
Anne-Kristin Myren-Tarniceriu – Assistant chef/First chef
Natalie Goth-Asli – Line chef
Inger Lindvik-Asheim – Line chef
Ingun Goth-Asli – Ingredients taster
Atle Nomeland – Vegetable cutter
https://i.imgur.com/D5JkbGF.jpg
Ingun and Natalie are the first ones to enter the kitchen.
https://i.imgur.com/SD1eWNR.jpg
First chef and line chef immediately starts preparing food. Atle the vegetable cutter flirts with Ingun. Ramona the boss is busy with her cellphone...
https://i.imgur.com/usd3pm2.jpg
"Darn it, these kids!" thinks the only two workers actually doing something... and wait, how are you carrying that bowl there? :P
https://i.imgur.com/XpqROL7.jpg
Ramona tries to tell Atle to get to work, but he really must be the flirt of the kitchen, because he responds by flirting with Ramona, his boss even!
https://i.imgur.com/7oIWjAe.jpg
"Quit it and get to work!" says Ramona, before turning to Ingun. "Just ignore him, he's acting a fool."
https://i.imgur.com/cMQDvAS.jpg
Ingun compliments Ramona for being smart. Hmm, this kitchen is pretty cramped, I don't think there would be much room here for Natalie and Ingun to discuss more private matters (if they should be interested in doing so.)
https://i.imgur.com/GoBqdoL.jpg
Customers are arriving at the restaurant and ordering food, so Natalie also has to step up.
https://i.imgur.com/p4TKR3G.jpg
Ingun has now moved on to discuss gardening with Ramona. Atle still isn't working very hard..
https://i.imgur.com/61maLA3.jpg
Well, I'm probably not figuring out what I want here, but it's pretty obvious who are the most ambitious workers of the kitchen, and who is probably getting the pay rises and promotions...
https://i.imgur.com/hb3iYVz.jpg
"I'll bring this pie out to the restaurant!" says Atle. Oh, good, he's doing something. But Ingun and Ramona is still just talking...
https://i.imgur.com/ZIQgrYQ.jpg
"Hamburgers are ready!" says Anne-Kristin, and the others are just busy talking and pulling pranks.. and I don't even know where Natalie went...
https://i.imgur.com/S2AeyV3.jpg
She just was just visiting the bathroom, and Inger in the back is mad at Atle for goofing about and pulling pranks..
https://i.imgur.com/mnFAizm.jpg
Natalie gets a scolding from Inger for the very same reason. Don't pull pranks on Inger, she doesn't like it.
https://i.imgur.com/eehIknZ.jpg
Ingun thinks about Inger and makes a mean face...
https://i.imgur.com/MWy7CP8.jpg
And then she curses at Atle as well. Ramona gives her a look..surely this behavior must have some consequences... Natalie pretends not to hear what her sister is saying... Maybe you should talk to her, Natalie...
https://i.imgur.com/R9QjA5Y.jpg
Your thoughts, Natalie, tell me that you hear every word your sister is saying, so there is no use in pretending...
https://i.imgur.com/zaYJYSY.jpg
"I think I'm gonna need to have a talk with Ingun" Ramona thinks as Ingun tries to umm.. strangle herself...
https://i.imgur.com/okI9nR7.jpg
Ramona: Ingun... I think we need to talk. Please come with me to my office upstairs!
https://i.imgur.com/MDXj7ja.jpg
Natalie must be very worried about her sister now.
"Ok, I'll follow you there" says Ingun. Natalie however, is super concerned..
https://i.imgur.com/6SMfDFT.jpg
Ramona: I assume that you understand why I had to call you to come up here, Ingun..
Ramona wasn't really angry, she was mostly concerned.
Ramona: First things first, of course.. Atles flirting is inappropriate, and I will talk to him about that later, but those words you shouted at Atle just now.. Ingun, that is way out of line, and I'm going to tell you not to repeat that again in my kitchen.
https://i.imgur.com/l1QjZth.jpg
Ingun: Hmm..!
Ingun's eyes were wide open as if what Ramona told her wasn't making any sense.
Ramona: Ingun.. do you understand what I am saying?
https://i.imgur.com/g2vJb47.jpg
Ramona: You can't talk to your colleagues like that.. I don't want to hear that again...
Ingun looks away and doesn't answer.
https://i.imgur.com/eTHJLKW.jpg
Ramona: Ingun.. I'm trying to talk to you... are you ok?
https://i.imgur.com/GbDNFI2.jpg
Ramona: Can you tell me.. what was it that happened down there?
https://i.imgur.com/17T7p6I.jpg
Ingun: I .. I don't know, I guess I lost it a little bit.. I won't say those words again...
Ramona: That's good Ingun, but... it's not just that.. I don't know, this isn't easy to say, but me and some of your other colleagues have observed some.. things....
(Some parts of the rest of this chapter have been censored, because we're plunging off into the deep end again..)
Ramona: Ingun... are you... are you self harming?
Ingun: I, uhhh....
https://i.imgur.com/bAjte13.jpg
Ramona: There is no denying Ingun. I'm afraid.. we have all seen it.. (...) how are you, Ingun? Is everything ok with you?
Ramona has always been very ambitious and driven, perhaps a result of growing up in the poor part of town... so she worked hard, and advanced quickly...and later, shortly before Bob Zombie passed away, he handed the restaurant over to her..
Ramona was also a kind soul with a big heart. So his wasn't easy for her. First it was Natalie and her struggles that came as a shock to everyone. She had been so well functioning in the workplace, nobody had really noticed anything. But with Ingun it was a little different. She was so timid in the beginning when she first started working there, back when old Bob Zombie still ran the restaurant.
Ramona didn't think much of that at first, she just considered her to be very shy. Though Ingun warmed up and opened up a little eventually, she always seemed very nervous and jumpy. Such as panicking and freaking out if someone accidentally dropped a pan on the floor or if someone closed a cupboard a little too hard.
Now, the alarm bells started ringing for real in Ramonas head after one shift where she stayed behind in the restaurant after closing to do some paper work when she found (....) in the employee women's bathroom...
..and when Ingun in the following days showed up wearing longsleeves at work, even though that was not part of their standard uniform, and temperatures outside were soaring during the height of summer.. and in the kitchen, the temperatures were even worse...
That's when Ramona began suspecting that Ingun had some trouble...
https://i.imgur.com/fpB8By2.jpg
Ingun: I'm.. I uh.. I am... I'm fine...
https://i.imgur.com/9hl9ae8.jpg
Meanwhile outside the door, Natalie was there listening intently to every word that was being said, even though she knew she shouldn't be doing that.. but the person sitting in there with Ramona right now, was her sister... and Natalie, in her clear moments, feared for her sister, like she had done ever since the night she ran away.. and especially when it was learned that she was actually harming herself...
Ramona: Look, Ingun.. I can see it from here.. that is not fine, Ingun.. I'm sorry.. but.. I think you should.. talk to your doctor about this, they can help you!
Ingun: I, uh...
https://i.imgur.com/BgQrtgh.jpg
Ramona: Please, Ingun. Please, go see a doctor. The shift for tonight is over now, anyway, so.. in the meantime, go home and get some rest. And promise me, you will get an appointment with your doctor. Do we have a deal, Ingun?
Ingun: I uh... sure, sure, I'll go.. se my doctor.. tomorrow..
Ramona: Thank you, Ingun! Go home and get some rest now, and I'll see you again tomorrow.
Ramona was relieved.. well, atleast a little. She didn't want to dismiss Ingun, she wanted to help her and to keep her there, and it wasn't only because the restaurant needed workers. To be honest, Ingun was probably very easily replacable, so that wasn't it... Ramonas heart was just much to big to let anyone go like that...
https://i.imgur.com/aO0XHQs.jpg
After their shift was over Natalie waited outside, because she wanted to talk to Ingun.. She called for her, but she just rushed by to head home without saying a word...
Some pictures of the town I took that I thought looked nice.
