The second part of Iris's diary was bigger than the first one.

I bought it with me to the cafe today. It's Monday afternoon so there wasn't much crowd.

"Theo, I've baked the last batch of cupcakes. Get started with the icing." I call out to my employee, Theo from the baker's room.

"Yes boss!" He came in and shot me a millitary salute

"Theo." I shook my head and laughed. "I'll go see the counter."

"Hana's already there"

Hana is a part timer at my cafe while side by side working on her novel.

"Hana?" I glance at the clock on the wall and walk out of the kitchen.

I saw Hana standing behind the counter. I rushed to her and  placed  my hand on her forehead. "Hana, are you really okay? You aren't sick right?

"What? No, I'm totally fine. Why do you ask?" She replied with a hint of amusement on her high pitched voice.

"You came 5 min before your shift!" I gasped dramatically.

"Bosss!" Hana whined and Theo started laughing from the baker's room.

Theo and Hana are my best employees. Theo started working for me 2 years ago when my cafe started gaining popularity, and Hana joined 8-10 months ago as a part timer. She is like a younger sister to me.

I am an only child so I've always wondered how would it have felt if I had a sibling to take care of.

I sat on the couch on the small room behind the kitchen, and took out the second part from my bag.
