6 Vol 1 : Faye Plan ⭐ (R)

"You want to hire me?" asked Denis to make sure.

Faye nodded, "You know I'm opening my new restaurant on the other side of this building."

"That's your restaurant!?"

Faye nodded again, "Is it weird?"

"No, I thought you wanted to make me work as a Chef at your place," said Denis.

Now it's Faye's turn to be surprised. Chef? "Can you cook?"

"I'm the ideal man of all men," said Denis teasingly, "I'm good at cooking Fay, that's why a lot of women like me~" He winked seductively.

Faye didn't know that Denis is good at cooking. On their date yesterday, Denis did not mention this matter, he also didn't make breakfast this morning, "Then I want to ask for my money back."

"Eh? Why!?"

"Because you didn't make breakfast for me," Faye said.

"You said my contract was over, so I didn't show you my skills," said Denis approaching, "I'll show you tonight or tomorrow if you want, Fay~?" He whispered seductively.

Faye coughed, forgetting that if you hired Denis, he would definitely want to stay at the hotel; since Denis had broken her heart, there is no way she would let that happen. She also had another plan too, "Sure."

"Really!?" Denis did not believe that his efforts would be accepted by Faye that easily, meanwhile yesterday, it didn't work at all. 

Faye nodded, "Come to the opening of my restaurant, Denis."

"Of course I will come if I can spend my time with you again, honey~" teased Denis again. 

Faye grinned faintly at Denis's enthusiasm. He must have thought about adult things he could do with her.

"Then I have to go back now, my sister is waiting for me," said Denis.

"Yes," Faye answered, after that Denis left Faye while waving his hand.

Somehow Faye felt like Denis dumped her, which is very strange because she had never felt like that before.

Faye face palmed. 

'Don't think of something that makes no sense, Faye, Mia is waiting for an explanation.'

***

Faye returned to Mia's place, she was so confused about what just happened, their drinks has started to melt.

Faye explained every detail of the date yesterday, how they went bowling, how they went shopping and how they ended up caught Denis's friend hang out with a middle aged man which made them ended up in a hotel. She didn't tell Mia about the sex, because that was her privacy, she jumped to  the morning part when Claudia, her mom, called and that became the root of all these problems. Claudia saw a ring lingered in Faye's finger and the naughty Denis who didn't listen to her, waved his hand to Claudia. 

"Wow, your life has changed drastically because of one date," Mia said her opinion out loud after being quiet while listening. 

Faye exhaled, "I know right? My life is a mess, and Denis doesn't want to take responsibility! He doesn't want to!"

"He doesn't?"

"He didn't want to fix the misunderstanding, and he asked me to take care of it alone, you know? That's why I want him to feel what I will feel tonight," said Faye sharply.

"Tonight?"

"You know, on the opening of my restaurant," said Faye calmly, "I asked him to come as my Sugar Baby."

"What's your plan, say it Fay," said Mia, feeling interested. 

Faye smiled widely, "You'll find out tonight." She was more than happy to see people would be surprised by her idea.

Mia understands, "I hope your idea goes well."

Faye hoped for the same, she didn't know what will happen if the plan fails.

***

After talking to Mia, they went back to work, Faye felt a little guilty because she had 'kidnapped' Mia, who was a Chef at her new restaurant, so Mia left the kitchen staff in trouble.

Mia said that it is okay so Faye can spend time doing her job, checking if everything is ready, there should be no problems. 

To be honest, this opening was not something big, Faye would just cut the ribbon, but the misunderstanding of her married status made Claudia invite colleagues to come to announce this fake status.

When she met Claudia, she asked Faye to bring Denis and introduced him to her family, which Faye calmly agreed to.

The clock kept ticking and time passed, finally the opening event was just an hour away, Faye who was checking the kitchen's condition got very surprised when she glanced out of the window. She saw lot of reporters gathered at the gate. 

"Who invited them?" Faye asked feeling amazed since she didn't invite any reporters to come to this simple opening event, and it seemed like they broadcasted the event live. 

"I think your Mama has something to do with it, Fay," Mia said worriedly.

"Of course," how could Faye forget that? She went out of the kitchen and headed upstairs where Claudia was. "Mama, why are there reporters in front of the restaurant?"

"Oh, that's because I allowed them to broadcast your new restaurant, Fay," Claudia replied casually.

Faye understands now why Claudia's co-workers go home and come back in their formal atties like they want to go to a party, "Mama! It's just a ribbon-cutting event, not a presidential event!"

"Oh, Fay. You are the only child. Obviously your marriage announcement should be known by lot of people. You are Faye Grace," Claudia explained casually again without caring at how panicked Faye was, "is Denis here?"

"Fu—" Faye was too focused on her event until she forgot to check whether Denis has arrived or not, "Mama, stay here okay? Don't go anywhere," she warned her mom not to create anymore trouble as she rushed downstairs and went outside to look for Denis among the reporters and the crowd. 

It was so crowded. That was the effect of the reporters's presence. They caught the attention of the people around the restaurant. The people thought that there might be an artist or something there.

Faye focused her gaze to find Denis in the crowd, ignoring the questions from the reporters and shortly telling them to wait for the opening. Finally, after her struggling of passing the crowd, her eyes caught the sight of Denis standing at the very back with confusion all over his face, and what was Denis wearing? A white shirt and black pants? "What are you wearing?"

He looked confused as he checked the clothes he was wearing, "Huh? You told me to attend your restaurant's opening, so yeah, I am wearing my best clothes. You didn't tell me it would be this hectic! What is this, Fay?" He explained still with a confused face.

"Mama."

"Your mother!?" Denis repeated what Faye said before chuckling, "You are Mama's girl huh? Yes, honey~"

"Ugh, just follow me, you will understand later." 

"Eh? Aren't I supposed to just watch?" asked Denis, confused. 

Faye rolled her eyes, not wanting to waste any more time, she pulled Denis's hand passing through the crowd that was getting even more crowded.
