Love is Second
26. Clara's Attitude.
"Do you know where this place is?" asked Allen coldly.
"Pamphlets are scattered everywhere, Allen. How could we not know." Clqra turned to her friends for approval.
"I don't think you guys like places like this. So, please just go from here!" Without further ado Allen drove away those beautiful women.
Hearing Allen's sharp words, Clara complained with a smile. "You're talking really spicy Allen."
Seeing the tension between Allen, Clara and her friends, Norra decided to leave the store. It just so happened that one of their neighbors had just come to help, after seeing the crowd.
"Hi, Norra!" greet Clara enthusiastically. The woman looked at Norra from head to toe. "Are you okay?" tanta mnya later.
Norra nodded. He raised his index finger and asked them not to discuss the incident the other day.
"Oh, okay." Clara acted as if she was beating her own mouth.
As a good store owner, Norra also offers them to stop by the store. The girl tried to give as courteous service as possible, though she knew, one of them was the one who had pushed herself the other day.
Allen relented. He let the women into the store, after some customers came out.
"Is this really good?" said one of Clara's friends while staring at various kinds of cakes arranged in the storefront. While others were busy staring at dozens of photos displayed on the wall. Not to forget, they also look into the open kitchen.
After mentioning their order, Norra immediately prepared it. He did choose to prepare his own order for them, so that the mother does not need to interact with the women much.
There was no meaningful expression from the four women, as they ate the cakes. "So, how much is it, Norra?" ask Clara as soon as they're done eating the cake.
"Because today is opening day, so it's free for all customers." Answer Norra kindly. A faint smile was imprinted on his face.
"Ahh, so." Clara and her three friends stood up from their seats and said goodbye.
Seeing the beautiful women saying goodbye, Rose immediately came over while carrying four small bags of cookies.
Clara laughed and just nodded.
Rose then handed the cake to them and thanked them, for coming all the way to this place.
Clara and the women awkwardly accepted it. They also immediately leave from there.
...**********...
Norra exclaimed happily knowing all the cakes had been finished. At first, he thought today would be a bad day like yesterday, but it wasn't. Even some customers have to swallow the disappointment of not getting the ration of the cake. They promised to come back tomorrow.
Norra let the mother rest first, as she tidied up and closed the shop with Allen. His son, Willy, returns home with Ben and Sebastian.
"Thank you for your help today, Mr. Allen," Norra said in a formal tone.
"For a beautiful girl like you, I will always help out with pleasure," Allen replied in the same tone. The two threw laughter at each other, then embraced.
After closing the shop, Allen went home. Norra insisted on driving Allen to the front of the alley. Allen relented. After all, she still missed her lover.
"Be careful on the road" Norra said.
Allen nodded. The man touched Norra's lips before leaving with his car.
As Allen's car left, he suddenly saw four bags of cake from his shop.
Haunted by curiosity, Norra decided to approach the bags and examine them.
How surprised the girl, when she found the cakes in there were still intact. The pain suddenly seeped into Norra's heart, for he knew the bags were the cake Rose had given Clara and her friends.
