"Okay everybody move move move! We've got a busy night tonight!" I said to the staff in a hurried manner.

"Yes Chef!" The staff said to me

This month has been way more busier than usual since many people found out about my restaurant. It's been here for a while now, 1 year and 2 months to be exact and I have been getting customers like crazy.

I wouldn't say my restaurant is prestige but it sure is pretty unique. "Sacre Francais" is my restaurant, it's unique because of the various famous people that come to eat here more than regular people.

It just seems to be a hotspot for celebrities, many artists have come and personally thanked me for the good food as they said it's so different and not common in America, and they sure were right. I specialised in Mozambican food because I'm from there. My name's Adelaiye, Adelaiye Tunika pronounced A-de-lie-eh Two-nee-ka. I came to America for fresh start and to expand my business.

I've had diners like Barack Obama, Usher, Pharrel, Rihanna, Angelina Jolie, Stan Lee, Frank Ocean, Zendaya, Kobe Bryant, Naomi Osaka and more. My biggest goal would be to get Sade or Beyonce or TWICE to eat here one day.

Today was a pretty busy night, I was in the back with the cooking stuff and making sure everything's in order. I saw through the glass that Frank was here, he sat at a table with a new person I haven't seen before. Frank always brings important people here so I've got to make a good impression, so I made their meals myself.

One of my waiters collected their orders and I got to work. I worked and thought about Frank and his friend, the man that sat across him was a tall, dark, pretty man. He wore black jeans, a flower covered Hawaiian shirt, a green cap on, a pretty flower necklace and simple drawn on green vans, he looked really good he must be Frank's new boyfriend.

I finished the dish and decided to deliver it myself to the couple.

"A plate of California rolls with a side of wasabi, soy sauce and Mozambican king prawns" I said to the couple and the man put his hand up

"Mine" he said to me with a smile and also looking down at his phone

"Here you go sir" I put the plate down

"And for you crab legs and fries" I said to Frank and placed the dish in front of him

"Thank you Lai Lai" he said to me with a cheeky smile

"I told you to stop calling me that" I said while crossing my arms

"Why? It's cute"

"To you! anyway enjoy your food and also you two make a very lovely couple" I smiled then winked at Frank

The man Frank was with lifted his head up fast and looked at me in shock.

"Couple? Frank what are you telling people?" The man said who was slowly starting to look familiar

"Nothing just eat your food" Frank said while chuckling

"Well uhm enjoy your meals" I said to the two then bent down to Frank's ear and whispered

"He's feisty, he's so perfect for you and your calm aura and he's cute well done"

"He's not usually bitchy but he is cute" Frank said then chuckled making me chuckle too leaving his 'friend' confused

I winked again at Frank then walked off back to the kitchen to make sure everything was in order.

Frank's Pov

"You better get off that phone! I didn't bring you all the way here to my friends restaurant just for you to be on your phone" I said with a little irritation.
