It didn’t help that the red button up top and short black skirt left nothing to the imagination, as the customers hugged each of the girls tightly. Rosalie was happy she didn’t have to deal with the customers. She saw some of the younger men doing what they could to see under their skirts.

Their body type were both model skinny.The building was all brick with ‘Mama Chika Cafe' In big black letters. The brick work was a mix of red, rustic red and cream.

He came to the conclusion it was after she bumped into him, but he had bumped into so many people before. Especially women, but this was different.The beautiful spring morning gently hit him, as he stepped out of the airport. Many colored taxi cabs were lined up, anxiously waiting for passengers. Or the ‘poor bastards' as he would put it. He spotted a black Mercedes and knew that was going to be his ride. He didn’t care much for anything that wasn’t of luxury. He had become accustom to the luxuries of this world and refused nothing but the best. All because he had started at the bottom and worked hard to get where he was. He had to, he had no one to fall back on.“Welcome, Sir,” the short Indian man said. He was very well dressed in a blue button up that was safely set

Didn’t help they had to find it in the back on there shipment. Rosalie smiled as she raced over and began checking it.“This is perfect.” Rosalie happily said as she grabbed the top box and raced it over to the strainer she already had in the sink. She began to clean the strawberries.“Boy, need that fry vat filled.” Ryan hollered after he head the water going. That boy would do anything to stay in the baking nock and he knew it. He purposely didn’t fill the vat so he had something for him to do. With that, once he was done, Ryan would see it and get him going on the next endeavor.Rosalie smiled as she carefully cleaned and prepped the fruit for the pies.

Frustration built up as he slammed the door. Not only did he miss Rosalie but he frightened Rachelle so bad she was shaking. Mama Chika wasn’t afraid of him and demanded that he apologies. Asrar did though he didn’t think it was right but he knew he must have over stepped his strength. It happens time to time due to how much power was behind this human skin. He bought a whole pie in Hope’s to make up for what he did and also he wanted to have more for later.Not only did that frustrate him but his cab took 45 minutes to get to him. To boot the driver had no idea where the hotel was so he took Asrar on a wild goose chase all over town. He played the cab fare but made sure to remember the cab number so he could complain to the company. Avalon watched him from the lobby of the hotel as she quickly rose from the couch. She stepped over pulling her small luggage behind her. She didn’t know how long he wanted her here so she packed a few things just in case.“Sir.” She gently

The day was perfect nothing was going to take it away from her.Carefully cleaning her plate she left it in the rack to dry as she raced for her shoes and jacket.

“I cant believe you have to be up at 2 in the morning to get to work. I cant even get up at 8 to start my shift for 9.” Avalon gasped as they walked up the staff stairs. Rosalie asked permission before bringing her there but Mama Chika was more then happy.“But I love to bake. It’s been a passion me and my Grandma use to share.” Rosalie smiled happily.“And your amazing at it. My brother bought a whole pie of yours yesterday and I got a piece of it. You can really tell you love baking just from the taste of that pie. Oh and the croissant the morning. I have never tasted anything so perfect.” Avalon boasted causing poor Rosalie to blush.“Thank you.”“Alright so here it is.
