213 Serving The Food!

After a few minutes of taking off, Alexander was ready to take orders to prepare the food. After all, this is why he was here.

He walked to the closest seat and with a notebook and pencil in his hands. "I believe that you have made your choice from the menu in front of you, so...can I take your order?" Alexander said.

The girl looked at Ace and spoke "Yeah...I will take the steak, but I must ask...Is the steak big?" She asked.

Alexander tilted his head "Big?"

"Yes, is it...big." the girl made a wide gap between her hands while speaking.

"Ah, yeah, yeah, it is big...just like your forehead!" Alexander said "Next!"

He walked to the next seat not giving enough time to the girl to speak back "What would you like to order?"

This time, it was a man "Ah yes. I will take the Pasta." He said.

""I will take the Pasta" Which one? There is like a 100 of them." Alexander spoke.

"Aren't they all the same?" The man shrugged his shoulders. Alexander looked at him with a deadpan expression.

"I wish Takumi was here...he would have broken at least 3 of the 10 commandments on you." Alexander shook his head and went to the next person.

It was a young girl with a short black hair "I want the chicken." She said.

Alexander notes that, alright not that specific but okay "Roger that..."

"Uh, excuse me?" Before Alexander could leave, the girl stopped him "Yeah?"

"Is the chicken free ranch?" She spoke.

Alexander froze in his place hearing what she said "Free ranch? What do you think this is? T1 flight? Get out of here will ya! you get what you paid for."

Alexander spent a total of half an hour just taking orders and getting annoyed by stupid questions, after finally completing his first task, Alexander returned to his small kitchen to start cooking for the whole plane as everyone has submitted their order. And while he was waiting for the food to finish cooking, Alexander got busy playing a game on his phone, and as always...He was losing.

"How is the cooking going, chef?" Walter, The Pilot came to Alexander with a smile on his face.

"Yeah, pretty good, no problems, although the space is a little of a problem here," Alexander responded.

"Well, they just made last-minute adjustments, it can be improved with time." Walter took a sip of his drink "Hang in there, working in T5 is not good for the mentality, haha!"

Alexander sighed "What are you doing here, this plane isn't supposed to fly itself." Alexander wanted to get rid of Walter fast, he is already taking enough space in the kitchen.

"Oh! Marlon is flying it...on Autopilot that is! hahaha!!" Walter laughed, he loves to leave the plane on auto-pilot while giving Marlon the impression that he is flying the plane.

"I am going to serve the food now, so~" Walter took a moment for himself before he realized "Oh, of course, of course, i am going to leave you there." Walter left the kitchen and returned to control the plane.

Alexander took the small cart and stuffed as much food as h can on it, he walked between the people and handed each one his food as they were ordered. The good and sweet aroma of the dishes started to spread into the airplane covering it in a wholesome atmosphere making the food more enjoyable. Especially with the joyful expressions of the customers.

Alexander took a step back and observed his work with a smile on his face 'This is more like it!' he thought.

By this time, the passengers calmed down after a good meal, food can change people's moods after all. Alexander walked between them to check on them as part of his attendant job.

"Excuse me, young man." An older man with his wife called Alexander.

"Can i help you?" Alexander leaned forward to them and spoke.

"Yes..." The man smiled "This is actually our first time traveling to Spain, we want to see some of the entertainment if you have any advice on that, we would appreciate it."

"Oh, Spain, huh? well, they do have the bullfighting going there in Madrid, and Also the Guns Parade in Barcelona? That is some of--" Alexander closed his mouth shut fast 'Crap, that's the underworld shit!!' He thought, seeing the shocked expression on their faces.

"Ehm! I mean, you can see the Flamenco dancing show and you can watch some Football in the stadiums."

"Oh, The Flamenco Dancing, I Forgot about that." The elder lady said with a smile to her husband before looking at Alexander "Thank you, young man." She said.

"Pleasure!" Alexander smiled and turned to leave, just to see a girl leaning close with a notebook in her hand, writing what Alexander was saying earlier.

"What? you too are a tourist?" Alexander asked.

The girl blushed "Y*Yes, actually...I do have a plan but i wanted to add anything possible." She said.

"Plan? like what?"

"Um...I want to go to Barcelona first and see around the city, then hitchhike to Montseny Natural Park and walk up to the mountain."

Alexander frowned "Hitchhike? why? they don't have buses in Barcelona?" He asked.

"No, I--I just want to add some spice to my journey." The girl tried to defend her case.

Alexander sighed "You know, take the bus, rent a car or anything, don't Hitchhike, this is why American women die outside of their home, you're gonna get yourself killed." He said.

The girl was surprised "B-But..."

"No buts, take the damned bus or rent a car." Alexander objected to that idea, it's disturbing how some women are brave outside of their own society not realizing that sometimes they have been targeted since the moment they walked off the airport.

"Well, that's not fair..." Another person spoke to Alexander, he was a man with glasses on "I have been to Barcelona before and it is absolutely safe, and i even hitchhiked there, you can't just tell her to not do what she desires. Spain is amazing!"

Alexander looked at him with a ridiculous expression "'Oh! Spain is amazing!' how do you know? you have been there once and now you act like you lived there!"

"Excuse you, i have been there more than once." The man did not feel like taking it, so he responded.

"What? twice? you have been there twice, get the hell out of here! ey..." Alexander looked at the girl "If this guy walks up to you at the airport and asked to join you in your journey, call the cops."

And so, the journey went on like that, Alexander got bust with talking with customers and sometimes some of them begging for more food of his. He wanted to refuse to serve another, but the whole plane demanded so...All he could do is serve some more, just a little.

Alexander's final test is coming to an end soon, the past several days has been hard and weird, especially the day he walked on a man getting blown and forced to work in a plane. But that will be no more soon...
