Chef beamed when he saw me walk in and made a huge fuss about my outfit.
“You’ve moved up in the world, Cheri!” He exclaimed, and I smiled at the dear man. He wasn’t French at all, but Eli’s father sent the man to France for some cooking courses and now Chef imagined himself to be French! I softly explained what happened upstairs and he gasped. “But Cheri! They should have told me you were here for lunch! I would have prepared your favourite meal!” He exclaimed, and I could see Eli trying to look the other way as if it wasn’t his fault.
