‘Can you cook Creole?’
I looked at the woman and gave her a lie as soft
as melting butter.
‘Yes, of course. That’s all I know how to cook.
The Creole Café had a cardboard sign in the
window which said: Cook wanted. Seventy-five
dollars a week. As soon as I saw it I knew I could
cook Creole, whatever that was.
Desperation to find help must have blinded the
woman to my age or perhaps it was the fact that
I was nearly six feet and had an attitude which
belied my seventeen years. She didn’t question
me about recipes and menus, but doubt hung on
the edge of her questions.
‘Can you start on Monday?’
‘I’ll be glad to.’
‘You know it’s six days a week. We’re closed on
Sunday.’
‘That’s fine with me. I like to go to church on
Sunday.’
It’s awful to think that the devil gave me that lie,
but it came unexpectedly and worked like dollar
bills. Suspicion and doubt raced from her face,
and she smiled.
‘Well, I know we’re going to get along. You’re a
good Christian. I like that. Yes, ma’am, I sure
do.’
My need for a job caught and held the denial.
‘What time on Monday?’
‘You get here at five.’
Five in the morning!
‘All right, I’ll be here at five, Monday morning.’
Mrs Dupree was a short plump woman of about
fifty. Her hair was naturally straight and heavy.
‘And what’s your name?’
‘Rita.’ Marguerita was too solemn, and Maya
too rich-sounding. ‘Rita’ sounded like dark
flashing eyes, hot peppers and Creole evenings
with strummed guitars.
‘Rita Johnson.?
‘That’s a right nice name.’ Then, like some
people do to show their sense of familiarity, she
immediately narrowed the name down.
‘I’ll call you Reet. Okay?’
Okay, of course. I had a job. Seventy-five dollars
a week. So I was Reet. All Reet. Now all I had to
do was learn to cook.
