Second Chance (Lupinranger vs patranger)

chapter 2

Megumi p.o.v

Now we are back in the present. I stopped whisking heavy cream after looking the cream became light and fluffy. I filled an icing bag with the cream and started to decorate the cake. I hummed as I piped the icing bag, making flowers on the top of the cake.

For the final touch..Sprinkles.

I remembered that Mrs Fujio's kid loves sprinkles. Especially the colorful ones. Today is her birthday and Mrs Fujio asked me to bake a birthday cake for her daughter. She will pay for the cake so I do not have any problem with that. Besides, I do need some money to pay bills.

I carefully put the cake inside a box. The celebration will start at 5 o'clock and I still have...3 more hours. What should I do?

Suddenly...my stomach growled.

Maybe getting brunch is a good idea.

I checked the fridge and I ran out of eggs. No omelets I guess. Maybe I just cooked some instant noodles but it is unhealthy since I already ate plenty this week. Conclusion, I made some onigiris and enjoy my food.

Two hours later.

Okay! Time to go to that restaurant. I grabbed the box, locking the door and left.

Hopefully, I get it right this time.

( During episode 7)

"Mrs Fujio ! Sorry for waiting." I greet Mrs Fujio as soon I saw her waiting outside the restaurant.

"Ara, Megumi chan. No, we just arrived. Ai and my husband are already inside. We are just waiting for the cake." She took the box and gestured me to go inside with her. I quickly shooked my head, politely to decline. 

"No, I'm good Mrs Fujio. I don't want to disturb your family time. It is not everyday that Ai chan turned ten years old. " 

"Nonsense! You are apart of this family too ! Your mother always help me with the shop and you are like a daughter to me. Besides, my son was supposed to be here but he suddenly have work to do. "

In the end, I joined Fujio's family for the celebration. I was not feeling awkward with them, probably because I knew them ever since I was a kid. As we were waiting for our food. Mr Fujio was about to pull out the cake from the box, and..

A chef was screaming, following by the people in the restaurant.  I turned my head after seeing Mr Fujio shocked expression. 

"A gangler?"

The gangler pulled a boy as a ransom, saying that he wanted some tasty food. A chef shakingly gave the nearest meal, wanting the gangler to let go of the boy.

the gangler pushed the poor boy. It seems that the gangler has some other kind of meal that he wanted.

"Something else on the menu. Got it chef?"

"We will cook another meal for you ! Please don't hurt us !"yelled another chef.

"Well, I am more prefer of human taste."

Just like that he opened his mouth as big as he can and a whip tongue captured the nearest chef. He swallowed the chef and that was the beginning of the rest of us to run away from the gangler. 

"Hurry, we can make it to the back door!"Mr Fujio pulled both of his wife's and daughter's arm, following them to the back door. As the tongue was about to approached them, I threw a chair blocking his target.  As if I want the gangler to ruin Ai chan's birthday. 

"Megumi chan!" 

"Run!" I screamed at them, not noticing that the tongue caught me by my left foot. As he try to pull me into his mouth, I tried to entangled the tongue to escape but, it is no use.
