"Adeline just arrange the display case and add more muffins" I said as I rushed back into the kitchen to continue making the next recipe while the chef worked on making the cupcakes.
The smile was etched on to my skin refusing to leave anytime soon as poured in the milk and mixed the mixture till it was smooth as silk. I lifted the bowl allowing the scent of malva pudding to engulf me. I try various recipes; therefore, I was determined to make this prune malva pudding a success .The first time I made it, it was a disaster, the second time was bearable let's hope the third time is a success after all three is a lucky number. Besides it's my own recipe so it's going to take some time before it's mouth-watering.
I sent the mixture down and covered it with plastic to allow it settle and for all the ingredients to interact and understand each other. I grabbed the dishcloth and began drying off all the water when Madison popped her head and said joyfully "Freya, there is someone asking for you" she announced.
It must be Derek.
I left him all alone in the morning in fact I did not feel like going to work but a girl's got to do what a girl's got to neither did I want to wake him up, so I just left him...asleep like a baby.
I left whatever I was doing and walked to the front of the restaurant, excitedly, but as I looked around, I could not see Derek anywhere. At first, I thought my eyes were deceiving me so glided my them around intently and I still could not see him. Just as I was about to go inside and finish my task a very familiar looking man walked up to me with a charming smile on his face. He may seem familiar, but I just could not point out where I saw him.
"The names Hale, Peter Hale" he introduced himself as he held out his hand for a handshake.
"Freya Sparks" I shook his hand dubiously as I could not help but ask "Sorry do I know you"
He let out a deep chuckle "No unfortunately we haven't but we have some important things to talk about so do mind having a cup of coffee with me"
"Erhhh" I don't even know this guy he could be dangerous so I used the best excuse I could come up with "I am kind of busy maybe next time" I said as politely as possible.
"I don't think you caught on dear I am Peter hale, Derek's uncle" that is why he looked so familiar. He looks so much like Derek.Damn I am such a fool.
I immediately untied my apron and came out of the till section as I made the offer "Well in that case let's go" to which he nodded. I quickly told Adeline to handle everything and head out. Peter does look really young to be Dereks uncle.
"What is the age gap between Derek and you."
"Not much" he answered as he led me into a black Mercedes and began driving.
"Well that is a very vague answer. Where are we going ?"
"A place to drink coffee"
Well that was also very vague.
"So, Freya tell me more about yourself" he asked once again with a charming smile that has got a lot of girls falling for him and his figure is also great, he was bulky but good kind of bulky he gave me a Klaus Michaelson vibe.
"There's not much" I said nervously as I tucked a hair behind my ear and continued to speak I am a baker and I really enjoy creating new things
"How is Derek? he came into town and he didn't even tell me where he is going" he said casually yet almost frustrated at Derek.
"He came in like couple weeks back not long though"
He turned into a cute looking house as he said "Welcome home we're going to wait here until Derek comes"
This doesn't seem right but his Derek's uncle so he should not be any danger. I took deep breaths just have faith, trust and a little bit of pixie dust.
He opened the car door for me leaving me a bit stunned by his behaviour. At least he has manners.
"Care for some cheesecake with some coffee" he asked me which bubbled up the happiness in me as I then nodded with a smile as he continued to speak like he knew everything but in like a cute way.
As we entered his house, I could not help but noticed he didn't have much furniture just the simple and basic stuff, however, he did have some high-quality gadgets since the office door was open I could everything he had were Apple products. Increasing my trust in him.
"You know Peter I have high respect for people who use Apple products". It was true if you want to know a persons true taste in life just ask what phone they have or what phone they want to have. He turned around looking at me stunned before he held his hand in the air and looked up into this roof as If it was the sky and announced "Finally god someone with taste" he then looked at me with a genuine smile "We are going to be best friends" he said making me laugh. Well I guess I won over one family member.
We spent couple of hours chatting chirpily while we had our cheesecake when a pounding on the door demanded our attention.
"Please excuse me" Peter said politely to which I nodded with a smile as he left to answer the door.
