My Love Is Stupid's

Chapter 33

The first weeks of working at Antonio's restaurant, Fara was not used to it. His eating and sleeping schedule changed. Fara had to eat before the restaurant opened, which was before lunchtime, while her dinner shifted to lunchtime. At first all it makes him languish, especially as a first-year servant Fara has to work every day. He only sleeps for five to six hours every day. But over time, he got used to it. His spare time before he goes to restaurants he utilizes to cook Italian food at home. Fara often notices Antonio cooking in the kitchen, then practices it at home. Sometimes other chefs help Fara by giving tips on cooking Italian food in between their breaks.

During nearly four months of working there, Fara learned a lot about the art of cooking Italian food. After saving enough money later, Fara decided to learn to become a pasta chef.

There are hundreds of pasta dishes you can try. He can even try new variations and create new dishes.

On the bed, Fara smiled with satisfaction at the thought of it.

In the morning, Fara met Mama in the dining room.

"Morning, mother," she said.

Mom kissed her daughter. "Morning, dear."

Fara took the rice and vegetables that have been cooked mama.

"Mama's asem is the best," Fara said, tasting again.

Mama laughed. "Thank you, baby. "More than your restaurant's cooking?"

Fara smiled knot. "Yes, of course."

"Mama can't believe it" said Mama jokingly.

***************************************

There is a huge difference between a customer and a waiter. A customer looks at the menu and orders food, whereas a waiter must memorize the menu and record the order.

Every customer has their own nature. If you get a customer who is not fussy, the waiter is lucky. But if it gets the opposite, the servant must be able to hold back his emotions.

Today is not Fara's lucky day. The day started with a very chatty customer. It takes about ten minutes for the customer to finish ordering. Then when Fara brought her order, the customer was dissatisfied and shouted at Fara. "I told you not to be spicy, why are you still giving me spicy spaghetti?"

Fara just swallowed. "Sorry, I'll replace the new one." He could not reply to scold because however the customer was king.

Fara enters the kitchen to ask Antonio to make a new spaghetti. His boss glared in annoyance. "What's? Create new? Why can't you record the order correctly?"

"I've recorded it correctly" said Fara trying to give an explanation. His feet stepped onto the order table and showed Antonio the writing of his order. The order is written not spicy.

"How could I possibly see such a small piece of writing?" yelled his boss again at Fara.

Fara gulps. "I beg you, signor(lord) Antonio. Please make a new spaghetti. Which is not spicy." (And next time, I'll write with a large capital letter if there is a special order from the customer).

"It's the first warning for you, Fara" said Antonio in annoyance.

Fara can't fight. Because after all the boss is always right. He also realized something that day. A cranky customer and temperamental boss are a deadly combination.

"Patience, yes" said someone, touching his shoulder.

Fara turned and saw Maya smiling motherly. Maya is the only person who can make Fara calm again. Fara smiled as she nodded. But Fara's anger at Antonio ends when her boss serves new dishes on her tray. Antonio's spaghetti always fascinated him.
