Normal POV

It was Meldy's first time handling the bar ON HER OWN since Meliodas was out buying ingredients. Basically, the two switched places for one day to see who gets the tougher job. Meldy complained once how its tough always walking back and forth buying stuff for the bar. This is what drove Meliodas to switch places. And he quoted,

"If you can handle the bar for one day, then I admit that you have the tougher job.....I mean....IF you can handle it." Out came the 'bet grin'. Hawk stayed put with Meldy so nothing bad would happen, he thought.


*****With Meldy*****


"This is easy" Meldy said to herself. She sees everyone happy and getting along,having a good time. They were drinking booze till they went tipsy. Meldy hopes that nothing bad happens. She can't handle bar fights.

"Hey kid... I wanna order this meatloaf." Meldy's smile faltered. This is a big problem. She has zero experience in cooking.

"uh..sorry Sir but the chef is out today so we're not selling any-----." Meldy then remembered Meliodas' words. She stopped talking and bit her lip. His words echoing in Meldy's mind made her fired up. "on second thought....of course Sir! It'll be done as soon as possible." Meldy told the customer. It sounded like she told that to herself.


Meanwhile...

With Meliodas.....

"This is what Meldy called tough? Grocery shopping is the easiest job." Meliodas said to himself. Right now, he was carrying a basket load of ingredients, fruits, vegetables and types of meat. "I guess I win this battle." Meliodas does feel a little worried for Meldy. He wonders what's happening at the bar right now.

He knows Meldy can clean, can take orders, can serve and can also be a bartender. But there's this gut feeling that he's forgetting something. Something very important. While passing one of the meat shops he bought from earlier, an old man was advertising his bread to the streets.

That's when the thought came back to Meliodas' senses. "Oh no...." he now knows what he forgot. Meliodas dashed through the town. Quickly running straight to where he had parked the bar. The smell of roast beef filled the air. He saw a group of men running his way. They were all screaming and shouting. The chaos has started.

When he got to the bar, the place was covered in chunks of meat and bread. Hawk was busy eating the gross food splattered on the floor.

"This was a bad idea." Meliodas scanned the whole room.his eyes landed on Meldy covered in chunks of meat.

"Papa...gomene..." Meldy held out a tray that looked like it got burnt in the oven.

'Note to self, Meldy has no experience in cooking.' Meliodas said to himself.

Well the bad news is that they had to no customers for today. The good news was that, he won the bet.
