"Okay! Okay! Im awake! Gosh" slamming my hands on my alarm clock.
"Seriously who invented you? You annoyed me every damn morning! Why did I even bought you?"
Are you looking at me? Why do a girl going crazy on the alarm clock
Okay. Let me fill you up.
I'm Jasmine Anderson a college graduate. And now working as a waiter/Co-worker/one of the owner of a homely cafe named "Love Cafe" sounds romantic right? But no, its a family cafe well most couple prefer this as a dating Cafe for its name. I'm 18 years old. Young right? I'm wise and witty they all say that's why I graduate earlier then expected.
I lived right above the cafe with my co-worker Ryan Charles and one of the owner of the Love Cafe. Ryan is now 19 and an orphan like me so we get along just fine. His been there by my side for the past 6 years and we re-built this Cafe when I was 16 and Ryan was 17.
We stumble upon to this old building and ask for a shelter the old couple open up their arms for us and welcome us. The ground floor was a restaurant and the first floor was kind of an apartment.
Many asked how could some teenagers can build a cafe.
~Flashback~
I'm 16 and Ryan is 17 that time.
One year have passed we all get along. The old couple don't have any spouse so they took us in as their own. We all was getting along just fine. But one night a tragic accident happen. They were going for a vacation and just gave us the whole building making me and Ryan the new owner to the building.
In the morning a cop went up to us
And ask, "Do you know the Hilbert couple?"
"Yes we know they're our foster parents." Ryan answered.
The cop took of his cap and said, "I'm sorry for your lost."
"What happen to them? They were going for a vacation."
"They were miss but they were in a hit and run accident. The truck that hit them have run away. When the Hilbert couple was rush to the hospital they were announce death on arrival to the hospital."
"No. No this can't be happening mama will be back! Papa will make us cocoa cupcakes! No!" I went hysterical from the news. Ryan hugs me calming me down.
"Thanks officer"
He pulls me back inside of the cafe.
"No this is not real Ryan mama and papa will be back right?" I faced Ryan to know but he never answered he just look at me with watery eyes and hugs me again.
"Don't worry my little sister I will be here with you. I will never leave your side." he said
"Promise?"
"Yes my little sister I promise."
After the funeral
We went home. On that day and forward we promise to our foster parent to make this old restaurant to a cafe and be successful.
And that is what we do. We have clean the restaurant and arrange a few this.
When we open up we make sure that we have a complete all the requirements.
The past few months was a blast we have earned a lot we even hired 3 persons to help in the kitchen and serve the costumers.
We never stop there we were now happy of what we have and glad that we rise up completing our promise to our foster parents.
~Back to the present~
"Hey sis we are about to open up! Take a shower and get some breakfast before you go down the cafe" that is my brother Ryan not by blood but by heart.
"Okay! Okay! I'll be there in a minute!" I shouted back.
This is our second year opening the cafe. We did a great job of accomplishment to the cafe.
"I'll give you 30 minutes to finish up! You'll be late again!" he interrupt me from my daydream.
"Gosh Ryan okay I know It's not like your paying my job" I laugh
"Actually I'm paying the internet so--" oh my god did he just.
"Ryan! You can't just derived me from my baby! Nooo.!" Okay I'm addicted to the internet its kind of my life.
"Okay sis just get down here immediately." he said sounding far from my door.
I rush out after taking a shower and putting my cute waiter dress. I went to our kitchen and drink the orange juice on the table and eat some waffles that was left for me.
I run down to the cafe and put the sign open and opening the door welcoming the costumers and taking their orders.
I went to the cashier to give the orders to Mila. Then she order Clifford on the small window behind her to make the orders while Jason is waiting to give the orders to the table.
"Hey Mila here's the order on table 07 and table 14. Hi Jason." I put the paper in front of her then faced Jason
"Hey girly, thanks I'll give it to Clifford."
"Hello boss." Jason said walking up to me after giving the costumers their orders.
"Don't say that I'm just a waiter for now." I laugh at him. "You should now clean the tables Jason." now looking at the people walking to the front desk to pay.
"Yes Boss!" he said while saluting. I just laugh from his silliness.
"Hey girly Boss is asking for you." Mila said while putting the cash inside the cashier.
"Where is he?"
"I saw him in the kitchen talking to Clifford."
"Okay I'm going. Please tell Jason to maintain the cleanliness Mila"
"Yes boss" she the salute like Jason did
I just laugh again "Not you too." don't but I feel like to be happy all time today.
"What? Its kind of cute when you laugh, right Jason." she said looking behind me.
"Hahaha funny." I went to the kitchen. "What brother?"
"Taste this my little bunny." he said putting a spoon in front of me.
I take it. Then my eyes widen from the flavors bursting to my mouth.
"What do you say?" Clifford ask waiting for my reaction. "Is there something wrong? I don't lack on the flavors right?" he then start to blabber his words.
I cringe making a disgusted face. Then I saw Clifford's face fell. I started to laugh "This is the best flavor I have ever tasted."
His face suddenly lighten up then he smile widely. "Really?" he asked. Then my brother sigh in relief.
"Yes the bitterness of the coffee contrast the sweetness of the strawberry while the feeling is the tongue is so soft when you mix the two substance making it as an ice cream. Good job Clifford. Serve it on tomorrow as dessert and let see what our loyal costumers say."
"Thanks boss I really appreciate it." he said bowing in fornt of me
"Hey I'm your boss too." my brother cried. Then Clifford just laugh "Don't go favoritism on me young man". Ryan pointing a finger at Clifford.
"Oh please brother its not like you can do any better" I said.
"Then go say goodbye to your in--" he start shouting
"Nooo" I then hug him look straight at his eyes and said "I love you brother." giving him my puppy eyes that I know he cannot, I mean cannot in a million time say no to it.
"Uhh" he hesitated "Okay fine"
"Yay love you brother" I said hugging him tightly.
"Now go back to work!" pointing to the door.
"You know that is the toilet room" Clifford said while laughing.
"Argh I still mixed them up. Can you put on a sign please Clifford?" he said walking to our office door.
"Sure thing boss."
"Welp I better get going and help the other its looks like a lot of customers are waiting" I said walking out of the real kitchen door.
"Lets finish this!" walking up to Mila and Jason.
"Yes boss!" they said all together.
And that went on for a few hours. Till then its closing time. Jason closed then doors while me and Mila clean the tables. Clifford went out from the kitchen pushing a cart with red wine and food on top of the cart and with glass wine and plates on the second tray of the tray.
"Great job guys another successful opening lets celebrate our second year opening!" my brother said.
"A toast to our success!" I lift a glass wine in the followed by the others bumping the glasses together.
"Cheers!" we all said then gulping down the red wine then Clifford refill the glass wines and Mila passing more bite size food.
We talk and drink till the end of the party then we clean up and went to our rooms to sleep.
