Lovely cake (Romantic Love Story)

HAPPY READING 🙏🙏🙏🙏

Oh my..!! Meisya woke up bad luck! This is his first day at work. Meisya hurriedly left for her workplace. It's almost an hour late. With an unkempt appearance, Meisya ran into a cake shop. Above the door of the cake shop was attached a board that read 'LOVELY CAKE'.

Meisya dreams of working in this cake shop. But after he successfully passed the test, he actually arrived late on his first day of work. With overwhelming panic, Meisya entered the 'LOVELY CAKE'. Just before the door, a strong-bodied person stood up to him with his hands folded in his chest.

'You're the employee who just got accepted yesterday?' ask the young man to Meisya.

'I-iya.' Meisya was shocked to death. He observed the face of the person in front of him who was very unfriendly. Don't-don't he…

'I went out of town a few days ago, so I don't know about you. Although yesterday my assistant, Chef Vina has already received you, but not necessarily I accept you too!' the man spoke again with a stern tone and a serious face. Meisya just gawked like seeing a foreign creature in front of her. The man's face remained handsome despite putting on a pretentious expression of judes.

'Look again! Do you know who I am?'

Meisya just shook her head.

'I'm Enrico, owner of LOVELY CAKE. Call me Chef Rico! Chef Vina told me about you. Um... Whose name are you? I forgot…'

'Ooo. My name is Meisya, Chef, ' Meisya surprised and happy. He just found out Chef Rico, his boss is this cool. He reached out his hand to shake his hand, but Chef Rico put his hand in his pants pocket. Meisya's getting clumsy.

'Meisya, do you know what time it is?'

'Hour 8, Chef..'

'You've been told, don't you know what time your work starts?'

'Yes.at 7, Chef…'

'Why is it coming now? It's an hour late!'

'Sorry, Chef…'

'Come on, get in the kitchen! Help Chef Vina and Chef Adit. I'm sorry for your reason! Instead of wasting any more time, mending you straight to the kitchen. But inget, I haven't received you completely here!' after 'welcoming' Meisya, Chef Rico immediately went towards his room.

Glek. His heart is still beating. The first day was a very bad job. Nothing yet, already scolded big boss. But there's something strange about Meisya's feelings. Although annoyed at being scolded, but he was amazed at the assertiveness of Chef Rico.

After Chef Rico leaves, Chef Vina and Chef Adit approach Meisya. Chef Vina comforts Meisya, 'Udah, don't think about it. Chef Rico is very strong. But he's actually good! You should be able to take her heart'.

The fat and friendly Chef Adit is also lousy, I guess, there are those who are fascinated by the aura of Chef Rico! Ciee.. Cieee.. Hehe…'

'Hhmm, seriously! I almost got a shock therapy reception from the big boss. Duh, how is it? Chef Rico was angry at me.' Meisya panicked.

'Come on, let's see what Chef Rico's next reaction will be. Now you help us yuk in the kitchen, Chef Vina invites Adit and Meisya to start working.

***

A few days working at 'LOVELY CAKE', there was a mistake made by Meisya. Aside from being careless, Meisya's concentration is split due to her feelings for Chef Rico. Every time the boss passed by in the kitchen, Meisya's heart skipped a beat and her nervousness grew. Of the many mistakes Meisya, finally there is one mistake that disturbs the calmness of Chef Rico. The big boss found Meisya in the kitchen.

The…!!!! Meisya dropped an empty pan. He took the pan under the kitchen table. As he stood up, he saw Chef Rico already before him. Meisya began to hang.

'Eh, Chef Rico! What's up, Chef?' meisya asked trying as calmly as possible.

'Yesterday a customer complained. Her name is Imelda's mother. He ordered strawberry cake, apparently until the house got a cheese cake. From what I heard, you wrapped the cake?' ask Chef Rico full of probes.

'I-iya, Chef. Sorry yesterday I wrapped the cake wrong.' Meisya trembling.

'Not just that! How many times have you made other mistakes? Can you work?' chef Rico Benthak.

'Sorry, Chef. I promise to work well. I want to work here, Chef, Meisya begs.

'Come to my room!' chef Rico's orders. Meisya followed her boss with a pounding heart.

In the Chef Rico room…

'But, Chef, please give me another chance. I promise I won't be careless again, Meisya almost cried. Her dream is to become a good cake maker. Especially after being accepted to work here, Meisya felt amazed at Chef Rico. Although this feeling makes him more nervous, misbehavior, to make many mistakes. But every day meeting Chef Rico gets him excited.

'I gave you one more test. If in this test you fail, you should stop working here!' Chef Rico explained, You have to make one of my favorite cakes!'

Meisya replied enthusiastically, 'Okay, Chef! I'll make that cake! What is Chef Rico's favorite flavor?'

'That's it. You have to find out for yourself, what kind of cake I like!' Chef Rico put on a mysterious face, 'I give you 3 days. You have to give me that cake!'

***

Meisya dizzy seven circumference. How do you know Chef Rico's favorite cake? He had already asked Chef Vina and Chef Adit, but they were forbidden to answer by Chef Rico. Who else should I ask? Meisya racked her brain. Oh right, there's one more waiter at the 'LOVELY CAKE' cake shop'. Name's Lola. When Meisya asked, Lola replied that she did not know. Meisya was almost desperate.

The next day…

Today was not as usual, Mesya came early in the morning to 'LOVELY CAKE'. Who knew there was a clue? Meisya goes into the kitchen. He saw Lola just finished cleaning up.

'Hi, May.. Tumben came early in the morning? Definitely investigating again. Hahaha.' greeting Lola at once melted.

Meisya's smile was forced. He simply fell silent watching Lola making a drink in a cup. He went up to the cup and tasted a little drink in it.

'Eh, uhhh…!! That's a drink for Chef Rico..!!! How to drink anyway?!! Oh..!!!' Lola scolded Meisya.

'Oh, make the boss? Sorry, I don't know. Does the boss drink this every day?'

'Yes! Just now, don't disturb my work!' Lola drove Meisya away. But Meisya had already found one thing. Chef Rico likes to drink this every day. A capuccino!

***

Finally. Finish also one heart-shaped cappuccino flavor cake. What a lovely cake! Meishya was satisfied with his work. Chef Rico's favorite flavor is cappuccino. But Meisya was still doubtful. Hhmm, stop! Just look at it later. Meisya brought the cake to Chef Rico's room. Tok.. tok. Moments later, the boss opened the door.

'Meisya.. Please come in.'

'This Chef cake.' Meisya was a little nervous dealing with his boss. But he gave up whatever was going to happen. He put the cake on the table. Chef Rico looked at the cake with an unpredictable expression.

'So what do you think my cake tastes like?'

'Chef try it straight away…'

'Oo. Replace you who make me curious, ' with a knife and fork, Chef Rico took a piece of Meisya cake. He tasted the cake. Chew a few seconds. Then he smiled too.

''Capuccino cake... Where do you know?' Chef Rico spoke with a satisfied expression. The smile that Meisya almost never saw was finally visible.

'Does Chef really like cappuccinos? Fortunately, I arrived early in the morning, Chef. I know how Chef Rico used to drink cappuccino every morning, Meisya explained. He could not hide his happiness.

'That's what you have to do! Come early in the morning, good and hard work! The results are good, right? I know you're talented, but get rid of your bad habits. Only then can you succeed!' Chef Rico exhorted excitedly.

'I really admire Chef Rico. My dream is to be a great chef like Chef Rico. I want to study here. Let me work at LOVELY CAKE, ' Meisya spoke with a restraint. Feel relieved.

'I'll help you make your dream come true. You work hard here, Chef Rico smiled. This is the most beautiful view at LOVELY CAKE for Meisya.

'Please enjoy Chef's cake, ' Meisya sumringah. I made this cake with all my heart. Special to Chef Rico.

'I feel like I got cake from a girlfriend, ' Chef Rico teased Meisya, ' but remember, I'm still your boss…'

'Yes, yes Chef.. Thank you Chef Rico..' Meisya was happy to see Chef Rico enjoying his homemade capuccino cake voraciously. Meisya sure can take Chef Rico's heart. I love you Chef…
