Today, Tang Lisa had an interview; she was applying for the pastry chef position at a new restaurant that opened recently.
She carried the fresh fruit she just purchased back to her apartment. Her roommate, Fu Jisoo, had just gotten out of bed.

In regards to Fu Jisoo, they have known each other since first-grade elementary school. At that time, Tang Lisa and Fu Jisoo would walk hand-in-hand to school every single day. Although they were neighbors who lived right next to each other, because the two of them were so similar in every single way, they had never been taught by their families the concept of 'what is the neighbor's child like?'


The two of them were each other's angel for over ten years. Even though they had graduated college and begun working, they had crossed a river in the same boat and squeezed into a small, run-down apartment.

It was worth mentioning that Fu Jisoo's gender was female.
If Fu Jisoo's parents were asked why they gave their daughter such a masculine name, they would reply to you with an expression saying 'of course' , 'because the father's surname was Fu, and the mother's surname was Ji. '

Luckily, Fu Jisoo's mind was broad. When she was teased by her classmates for having a guy's name, she would always retort, "Fortunately, I'm a girl. A male being called 'Fu Jisoo' would never be able to find a girlfriend their entire life. "3
This fact was later proven, as even though she was a girl, she also couldn't find a boyfriend.

Since she was a child, each and every boy she liked--she didn't snag a single one of them. As Tang Lisa would say, she had perfected the '100% Rejected-when-Confessing' skill.
...Growing up was always painful.

Tang Lisa placed the strawberries in a salt-water solution to soak. She was beginning to make the cake required for the interview later today. Fu Jisoo washed her face and rinsed her mouth in the bathroom before walking to the kitchen to help Tang Lisa by cheering her on.

"Xiao Lisa ! Succeed or die trying! You know rent day is coming up!"
Tang Mi viciously glared at her. "As I have said for seven years, whoever calls me Xiao Lisa, I will bite to death!"
"I believe this line has already passed its expiration date. " Fu Jisoo easily snatched a strawberry and slipped the berry in her mouth. Her eyes closed in satisfaction, creasing in delight. "Sure enough, seasonal fruit is the tastiest!"
Tang Lisa grabbed the ready-made flour dough and preheated the oven. She slapped Fu Jisoo's hand when she had reached out to grab another strawberry.

"Didn't we have to hand in rent? Why aren't you quickly going to work?"
Fu Jisoo picked up the plate of sliced bread Tang Lisa had prepared from the table and walked over to sit down on the sofa. "Our magazine publisher's base salary is extremely low. I'm not very passionate about my work. If the pay doesn't increase, I plan on quitting. "

Tang Lisa's eyes widened. If she truly resigned, this house would have two unemployed people! "You absolutely must not be impulsive. As Father Alfred has said, 'Work like you do not need money at all!'"

Fu Jisoo deftly rolled her eyes. "He also said, 'Love like you're still a virgin. '"
Tang Lisa : "..."
He had never said it like that!

Tang Lisa decided to ignore Fu Jisoo and wholeheartedly threw herself into baking the cake.
10:30AM. She arrived on time and sat in the interview room.

The Human Resources director of the company perused her CV while the restaurant manager examined her cake.
"Very beautiful exterior. " The restaurant manager's brows lightly rose, her eyes displaying slight surprise. "The color arrangements complement each other, and the strawberries are also very plump. I like your peppermint leaf decorations on top. "

Tang Lisa breathed a slight sigh of relief. This restaurant manager, who had a picky temperament concerning beauty, was very satisfied with the appearance. There shouldn't be any big problems, right?
