It turns out that what Alex imagined was wrong, there are also many people who are interested in trying his steak tester. Indeed he shouldn't judge all rich people based on those annoying rich people he met before. But come to think of it, he used to only work in 3-star hotel restaurants so surely the rich pretentious guests he met there were not comparable to the guests here.
"What a nice steak this is, I did hear a lot of quiet Black Grill, but only this time I tasted it. Looks like I want to enjoy more than just a tester. " Send him an empty little plate on Alex and already intend to enter the restaurant.
" I'm sorry, sir, today is the first opening day and only invited guests are allowed to enter, " obviously Alex smiled kindly with a little empathetic tone. Just in case if for example the interlocutor feels upset because he is refused entry to the restaurant.
"That's it, what a pity. Well, I'll come tomorrow then."
"Thank you sir, have a great day and see you again tomorrow. We are looking forward to your arrival." The intonation of his voice was getting higher because the one he spoke to had walked away. Alex is then a young couple who walk with a cute boy to offer him his tester.
He did not expect that he would enjoy this task, which was previously something he hated very much.
In the past when he was in college Alex had taken part-time work at a cosmetics store in a mall near his home, because he did not want to burden his parents and brother with his tuition fees. Every day he had to hand over promo brochures and offer make-up products to everyone who passed by,and he felt uncomfortable because the way his boss taught seemed to be a bit forcing people to visit their store.Maybe that's what caused him not to run this task.
"What do you want to try too?" Alex half crouched down so that the little boy could see the contents of the tray he was carrying, but the offered even shuffled frantically hugging his father's legs.
"He couldn't eat meat of this size because he used to choke and had to be rushed to the hospital, and until now traumatized," she explained.
Realizing what he was doing had stirred up the trauma of a little boy Alex quickly stood up and slightly retreated so that the boy would no longer see the steak cut in his hand.
' BRUUUKKK!!!.'
Though only a little bitiiiiiit his back collided with who knows, now the tray and its contents scattered below. It must be because the rush away from the boy the balance is a little shabby, so a little bump results in this fatal.
" I'm sorry my Master was unintentional, I was completely unintentional." Immediately he turned around to make sure nothing happened to the person he hit. Right now in front of him stood a well-established, handsome, tall man who was looking at the meat of the steak strewn below. Well I say well established because he looks much older than me, but too young too if I compare him to my father. Handsome and dignified face, broad shoulders, tall body. He even looked so alluring even though he just stood looking down expressionlessly. Awakening from his daydream Alex again ensures that the man in front of him is not injured or stained with the food he dropped.
"Can I get you a glass of water, sir?. Sorry, I must have surprised you."
"I'm here to try the tester, it's a pity that it all fell. Ah, maybe this means I should go in and enjoy a serving of my favorite steak." He did not answer Alex.
"Sorry sir today is a special day for invited guests only, I hope you will come back another time," I don't know how many times Alex has repeated these words to people who have tried the tester.
"But shouldn't you be responsible for bumping into me?."
What!?!??. Yes I did hit you, but it was just a little bit, not even shifting from where he stood, who should have got the responsibility it was me. Obviously my tray is falling off, and look at you, there's not a bit of stain on you while I can feel the stickiness of the steak sauce on my feet. Now even demanding accountability. What responsibility?. You want me to marry you. Alex's mind is upset. Unfortunately, he could not allow his teeth to be ejected through his mouth. Where else the family was, could not help explain that I was avoiding the awakening of their child's trauma.
"Sorry Master this is beyond my authority, but I will ask my superiors." How many times have I said an apology. "Perhaps if there's an empty table you can be allowed to enter sir."
" I can enjoy my steak at the bar though, no problem."
" Sorry sir, we can serve the drinks you ordered from the Bar at your dining table but not vice versa Sir, we can not serve the main meal at the Bar." Again I have to say sorry Alex was upset.
"Why are so many of your rules not in my favor?.
" I'm really sorry Mr. , the rules are set for the convenience of your visitors. I'm sorry if it's not pleasing to you" Alex replied patiently and kept a low profile. "If you'd like, I can ask your manager's request."
"Don't let me ask you myself, just clean up what's scattered, not nice to see" he said as he passed away to the entrance.
"Okay sir, thank you." Alex waved a small to the back of the man who had already managed to make his bad mood.
Aah what if she pits the no-no against Madeline's mom so she can be accepted without an invitation. Die me. Why did I thank him for trying.
Concern enveloped Alex's mind as long as he cleaned up all the contents of the tray scattered everywhere. Hoping to be anxious and put his ears carefully if later his name will be called.
Until he finished cleaning up the mess in front of the restaurant he did not see the man come out, what that means is he was accepted as a guest. Now the problem is whether the man made trouble for her in front of Madeline.
Alex walked as slowly as possible standing at the end of the corridor squinting his eyes looking around looking for the male figure he had hit earlier. He seemed to be chatting in the bar with his boss, once in a while they smiled and laughed. How'this?. Whether that means his position as a staff here is safe, or indeed my problem will not be widespread until the man leaves this place.
Alex decided to wait in the pantry that was also used for staff breaks, even though his working hours were finished.
"Lho Alex why is he still here, instead of being done?" madeline asked in shock to find one of her men who should have gone home an hour ago.
"Oh yes Ma'am, this is I want to go home, was willing to rest awhile, rather than the edge in the middle of the road eh even keasan hehe." Alex reasoned.
"Yes, don't go back too, mending his rest at home. Thanks for today, yeah." Madeline out the pantry with a glass of orange juice.
Well, I'm sorry, sir, whatever your name is, I was wrong about you. Thank you for keeping my good name. Alex smiles happily punching the air, then runs into the women's locker to pick up his belongings and go home.
Inside the carriage back he remembered the incident that had happened to him earlier. The shadow of the man flashed once more. Why did he say the words that made him panic and fear that in the end he did not complain to Madeline. Is it possible because he is fascinated by the beauty of his superiors huh?, so he undoes his intention to make trouble on my behalf earlier. Terka Alex original.
without invitation. Aaah at most the same case, he was fascinated by the man's good looks and aura of manliness earlier. Alex is starting to become a detective.
But who would have thought that the meeting was just the beginning of the ups and downs of new life experiences that Alex had never experienced in his lifetime. Could it be that after 23 years Alex finally felt the thump of strange feelings for men.
