"Hey Robin! Where are you?!" Derek came shouting and opened the door with a loud bang. Robin was sitting on bed his with his laptop recording the profits and losses for the year, he is the owner of the most popular restaurant in the town, and is always busy with his work. "What the fuck are you doing Derek?, you are gonna break the door," Derek grabbed Robin by his arm and pulled him out of the bed, "What's wrong with you? Where are you taking me Derek?" "We need to go right now or you will miss your opportunity to meet your idol James Bell".

James Bell, Britain's most popular singer. Handsome, charming, kind. He donates clothes and money to the charity every year on his birthday, he is admired and idolised by millions of people. James became popular at the age of eighteen,

He is Robin's idol, his Spotify playlist is filled with James' songs. He has always dreamed off becoming a singer since he was little, but his family was financially weak, they didn't have the money hire a music teacher or send him to a good music school, he studied at a public school, specially made for the children who came from financially weak families. His parents passed away when he was in the final year of highschool, His whole world turned upside down, he cried himself to sleep every night, he couldn't eat or sleep properly for days, James' songs were the only thing that could comfort him. His life became really tough, he had to work as a waiter at a restaurant inorder to pay for his tution, managing both work and study was really tough for the poor little kid. The owner of the restaurant, Oliver, a man in his late fifties, he really liked Robin because of his sweet and caring nature and his punctuality, Oliver used to give him days off during his exams so that he could study properly, Once Oliver caught a really high fever and Robin stayed at his place all night taking care of him. Next morning, when Oliver recovered, Robin made him breakfast so that he(Oliver) can rest a little more, Oliver was heavily impressed by his cooking skills and touched by his kindness, that he(Oliver) made him(Robin) the resturant's lead chef, they both grew  really close, with each passing day. As Oliver grew old and struggled with his health, Robin  helped Oliver to run the restaurant and before Oliver passed away he made him(Robin) the owner of the restaurant.

"Wait, James Bell is at my restaurant?!" Robin screamed with surprise, "Let's go see him". Both arrived near the restaurant, there was a huge crowd infront of the restaurant screaming with joy and taking pictures and the security was trying to calm them. Robin gathered all his strength and finally managed to enter the crowd, everyone was pushing eachother like crazy inorder to get a sight of the handsome singer, due to all the pushing Robin couldn't stand properly, as he was about to fall, someone caught him in their arms. As Robin lifted up his face and his eyes met another beautiful pair of hazelnut eyes, it was James his idol, the man of his dreams!! He stared deeply into James' eyes, he thought how beautiful James looked, his hazelnut eyes, fair skin, brown hair and red lips looked so magical, he couldn't stop staring at his face, how can a man be so beautiful?. "Are you ok Mister?" Robin's reverie was broken by these words, "my arms hurt, how long are you going to stay in there?" James teased. "I'm so sorry Mr. Bell" Robin quickly got up on his feet, his face was all red and his heart was beating faster, he wished to disappear in thin air from the scene."So aren't you gonna let me in your restaurant mister, I came here all the way to eat lunch specially from this place" said James, "Yes Mr. Bell you are welcome to my restaurant 'The Oliver's kitchen', come in". "Who's Oliver?" Asked James, "He was the previous owner of this restaurant, he was like a father figure to me, before he died he made me the owner of this place", "How lovely!!" exclaimed James. James walked inside the restaurant, and the crowd was driven away by the bodyguards.

"Sir what would you like to order?", "Hmm serve me the most expensive dish along with the most expensive dessert on your menu", "The most expensive dish on our menu is the Lobster Frittata for £500 and the Mauboussin Mega Sundae for £480", "That's all you got Mister? They are so cheap, bring it on let me have a taste". As Robin was about to walk away from the table to make arrangements for the order, James grabbed his arm, "Uh huh, u can't order the chefs to prepare the dish, I wanna eat your cooking, prepare it by yourself" , "But sir!", "No buts Mister, I wanna taste your cooking" said James, "Ok sir I will try my best!", "Good boy" James patted Robin. Robin blushed and left the table.

After 20 minutes he came back with the order and placed it on the table, "Sir presenting you our special and most expensive menu, Lobster Frittata and Mauboussin Mega Sundae, hope you enjoy!!. As James started eating, Robin's heart rate kept increasing. James suddenly stopped eating and looked up at Robin. "Uh sir?? Did you not like it?" Robin asked nervously, James stood up and walked towards Robin, they are now standing really close to eachother, Robin could feel James' breath on his face "Uh sir?? did I do something wrong? I'm really sorry" apologized Robin, "Excellent!!", "What?" there was a look of confusion on Robin's face, "I said excellent!!, Mister Robin, you are an excellent cook, I would like to hire you as my personal chef", Robin's jaw dropped as he heard those words, "huhhhh!!!! What????", "Mr. Robin come be my personal chef, I love your cooking!!", "But what about my restaurant sir? Who will run it?" there was a look of worry on Robin's face, "Don't worry, your restaurant is now my duty I will take care of it, just leave it to me!, pack your bags!!" "What why?", "Mr. Robin you are gonna live with me, from now on, you are my personal chef afterall, bodyguards go with him to his house and help him pack his bags".
