Francesca
Ok ma'am. I will send the cake on right time
William's Assistant
Thanks
William
Did you place the order properly?
William's Assistant
Of course I did, Sir. But I thought you wanted to go to the shop. Then why didn't you
William
Uh.. I suddenly remembered that I have an important work that's why
William's Assistant
Oh.
* in her mind*
*but he is just reading a magazine*
Fiona
Hey sis! how was your day?
Francesca
Just like other days
Fiona
So, nothing interesting happened?
Francesca
What interesting thing do you want to happen?
Fiona
Nah.. nothing... I thought the area where your cake shop is located to is an interesting place
Francesca
Fiona, I don't wanna talk about that. I have received a huge order. I need to think about that now
Fiona
Oh really! That's a great news. Let's have a party tonight.
Francesca
I think I told you that I need to think. Also how can two people have a party?
At Richard's Office party
William
Hey dude. Come with me
Richard
William, I told you call me Mr.Arlert at the office. What do you want?
William
Well ok.. Mr. Arlert, kindly come and cut the cake. We should start the party already.
Richard
Why are you in hurry today. You seem very excited about something.
William
We are getting late. Just cut the cake.
Richard
What's wrong with you today? Ok ok fine.
Richard cuts the cake
Everyone clapping
William takes a piece of cake and put the cake in Richard's mouth
Richard
*Was annoyed for a moment*
It is really good
Richard
Where is the cake shop William? Is this shop popular here?
William
Yeah... It's so popular that everyone except you knows about this
Richard
How come I don't know about this
Richard
Gimme the location I wanna go
William
Here is the location
Chapter 3(Why?)
Francesca was about to close the shop. Suddenly the door of the shop opened
Francesca
Good evening S.. sir
Richard
*shocked* I would like to have a black forest cake
Francesca
*in her mind* what is he doing here? Didn't he recognise me?
Richard sits on a table which is at the corner of the shop
Francesca
Here is your cake Sir
Richard
Thanks. No need to be formal with me Francesca.
Francesca
* Smiles forcefully*
Richard
How are you? How is your life going?
Francesca
Just like how a normal life goes. What about you?
Richard
Just like how a busy life goes.
* After a few moments of silence*
The cake is very tasty. You made this right?
Francesca
Yeah... It's my shop after all.
Richard
Your shop is very well decorated as well. Good job.
Francesca
*Just smiles and says nothing*
Richard
Ok.. I need to go now. Here is the bill
Francesca
*Takes the money.*
Richard
My office is near your shop. If you ever need something don't hesitate to come. Here is my card.
Francesca sits down on a table. Her whole body is shaking
Francesca
Why? Why did he come here? why does this always happens. After all these years... this happened again. He has come back again in my life.
Richard
William! William!! Where are you?!
William
Oh dude! Richard! What happened? Why are you screaming??
Richard
You knew everything!! *screaming* Why did you send me to that shop???
William
I asked you if you are sure about going there... calm down bro
Richard
Don't try to be smart! *still screaming* You knew it's her shop... still you didn't tell me!! what are you plotting? You bought the cake from that shop intentionally!!
William
Listen Listen... I didn't know at first that it was her shop... I didn't bought the cake intentionally. I promise.
Richard
Then when did you know?
William
When I was about to enter in the shop. I saw her. She was talking to a customer. I didn't even went inside. I sent my assistant
William
I couldn't tell you that day.... I wanted to tell you but I somehow didn't feel like telling you..
Richard
Didn't feel like telling me, huh?
Richard
Are you kidding me? She was the last person I wanted to meet....
William
Really?For how long are you gonna run away Richard?
Richard
Get out of my room William!
William
We are at the living room
Richard
Then get out of my house
Francesca
* Remembers all the past incidents* What happened 11 years ago....
It was just like any other day... Francesca was talking with her friends at school
