Jacqueline came to get them. “Hey, you two come on an eat. I whipped up something that will knock your socks off.”
Emma Jean moved from near him to walk over to Jaqueline. She had a glint of anger in her eyes upon seeing the older woman. Jaqueline wasn’t understanding why the little madam looked at her that way. Kenji followed behind at a leisurely pace. He assumed Emma wanted to talk with the lady, as she hadn’t seen her in a long time. Emma jean spoke in hushed tones, “Why is he here?”
Jaqueline tilted her head to the side not sure what she was talking about. “I’m sorry? But who are you talking about?”
“That damn captain. Why is Johnny here?”
“I’m still not following. Who is this Johnny you said is the captain?”
Emma Jean sighed. If this old meddlesome woman didn’t know who she was talking about maybe it was just a coincidence. That man better not come near this vessel again. She decided to look into who was all hired at the company, just to

Kenji leaned back from the table after he finished swallowing his first bite. His eyes were closed. The first taste he could tell the food was made perfectly. He opened his eyes to see Emma looking at him. “What?”“Nothing, just wondering if that’s the way you look when something is delicious?”“Yeah, maybe so.” He straightened himself up to continue eating. “So, Little princess, tell me the story about that guy.”She sighed, even though she agreed to talk about him she really didn’t want to discuss it. “Yeah, I did make a promise, right?”“You did indeed.”She stabbed at her mashed potatoes, then stirred them around. “So, you know his name is Johnny. He was actually my very first boyfriend. God, I think I was about fifteen maybe sixteen. I was completely innocent.”“I can’t picture you as this young innocent girl.”&ldquo

She tilted her head to the right. Wondering what he meant by his statement. She wrinkled her eyebrows while moving her head back. “I feel like you’re plotting something.”His eyes widen. She couldn’t have figured out his plans for revenge. He decided to tread lightly. He wanted to know what she could possibly be thinking. “What do you mean, I’m plotting something?”“It’s just a hunch but I think you’re going to use that food truck to see me as much as you can.”Kenji let out a slow breath. She didn’t suspect him of anything other than trying to be around her. This time his thoughts translated to words without even thinking about it. “What a conceited woman you are. You make it seem as if I’m madly in love with you?”She frowned at him but there was a slight change in her color, barely noticeable if you weren’t looking. “I-I don’t know what you&rsquo

The two of them ate in silence, only it wasn’t uncomfortable this time. Every so often the blissful sounds of indulgent, soft moans could be heard. It wasn’t long before they finished every bite of their slice. Emma jean looked up to see Kenji was also looking at her. The pair of them looked from each other to the cake then back at each other. A hearty laugh erupted from Kenji. Emma Jean covered her mouth to stifle the giggle coming from her. Jacqueline came back into the dining room to see what the laughter was all about.Her hands were on her hips in a motherly position. “I hear laughter. It was so quiet in here just a few minutes ago and now the two of you can’t keep from laughing. Were plotting to steal my cheesecake?”That caused them to laugh even harder. Kenji leaned back laughing while Emma jean doubled over clutching at her stomachs. Jacqueline narrowed her eyes at them before taking her cheesecake off the table. she huffed at the

She looked from Kenji to Johnny laying on the ground. “What do you mean? What happened?” Kenji pulled her away from the scene to keep her away from Johnny. Emma Jean couldn’t help but to be curious about what had happened. She didn’t think Kenji was in the wrong, it was most likely that creep Johnny. She allowed him to pull her. When the two of them were farther away from where the altercation took place, she pulled her arm out of his grasp to dust the bottom of her feet off and place her shoes back on. She leaned against him for balance as she slipped into them. “Will you tell me what happened? Did he come to the docks to start trouble with you? If he is employed with the company, I’ll fire him immediately.” Kenji placed his finger over her moving lips hoping that would silence her long enough for him to speak. He didn’t want her to know the truth that he went seeking Johnny out in the hopes to find out some dirt on Emma. “No, that wasn’t the case. I actuall

The pair of them headed back to the yacht. It was quiet on the second have of their walk. Jacqueline reached them just outside on the docks. There were two cloth bags filled with her food. “Now, make sure you eat up or share it with family. But don’t neither one of you ask for my cheesecake recipe. I’m not sharing it. It’ll go to the grave with me.”Emma Jean frowned at her, “You have to pass it along to someone. It would do the world a disservice if you didn’t.”“Yeah, I agree. I may not be appropriate to have it but you should pass it along to your children or someone in your family.”“You two kids make great points but I’ll think about it. Now where are you going next?” She looked down at her own watch. “It’s a little after ten. There’s still time to do something else. Just not THAT something else.”Emma Jean blanched at what she implied. Her mouth dro

Kenji turned away from her, he didn’t like the fact that she was teasing him. He huffed and puffed out his chest. “You tease me when I’m older than you. What are you a kid?”She scooted closer to him, draping her arm around his shoulder. She spoke in a sing-song voice. “The big man, don’t like when the wittle brat teases him? Ah poor baby. Should I stroke your ego?” She moved her hand closest to him to the top of his head. “is this where the baby wants his ego stroked?”Kenji grabbed her hand pulling her into his lap. The two of them were now sitting there facing each other. “If you want to tease me, remember I can do the same thing too.”He moved the hand of hers he was holding closer to his lips. She could feel his warm breath against her skin. It caused her to shiver. Her eyes locked with his. Those grey eyes drew her in, stealing her breath away.

The rest of his weekend seemed to drag on, his mother walked around with her shoulders slumped. While his father tried everything, he could to console her. Seeing the way, his parents were acting made him want to do something special for them. He thought about leaving the house so they could enjoy alone time but that wasn’t enough. Kenji searched the recesses of his mind to find the perfect desert to make for them. The one that stood out the most was the delectable Opera Cake. Layers of almond sponge cake soaked in coffee syrup with ganache, coffee French buttercream and covered in a chocolate glaze. Yes, that’s the perfect one for them.Kenji worked hard through out the day to make the cake. When it was completed, he placed it on the counter then left the house with a note. “Gone to see Kimmie, enjoy.”He reached his sisters house within the hour. The twins were eyeing him with suspicion. It had been a few weeks since they had met their uncle.

For the first couple of hours, families passed by him intrigued by his sign and boldness. Little kids kept begging for deep fried mac and cheese. Their parents refused, constantly saying the same thing “If you want food, I can get you some at the park.” Kimmie and Kenji mostly sat around, waiting for someone to take a chance.Kimmie rested her hand against her chin looking out at the highest roller coaster in Kari-Hope. “Can’t we just go in and ride the rides? Or at the very least drum up business?”Kenji who was cleaning the stove top for the umpteenth time looked at her. “If we do that one, we could get in trouble and cause problems for Kemari. Two if someone does come by and we’re inside they will walk away. Let’s give it another couple of hours.”She sighed loud and bored. “Fiiine, we’ll do it your way. But someone better come to the truck soon. There’s nothing to do.”Kenji
