{ Trouble again }
“You’re gonna pay for my medical bills or I call the cops and if you wanna report about the broken glasses, I’ll tell them I wasn’t in my right mind since you hit my head with a stick!”Gia said.
“Let’s just go Gia, I’m sorry ma’am”Ji-hoon tried talking her away.
“No! I’m calling the cops right now!”she brought out her phone but the lady drew some money on her.
“I’m not begging for it lady, it’s my right to take it so give it properly!”she shouted and the lady picked the money, handing it to her.
“There’s still free food, get one free when you come!”she said and walked away while the others followed.
Natalie who’s among the crowd followed them.

FOOD VILLA
Counting the people who are eating is a waste of them since they’re close to one hundred.
Ji-hoon already took care of Gia’s injury so they’re both cooking.
“Over here!!”
That’s how they kept shouting while Izzy, Allyson and Stefan attended to them.
“I’m gonna faint soon”Allyson muttered as she served the last table.
“Imagine Ji-hoon, if this is what we get daily, it’s gonna be a dream come through!”Gia said as she looked at the people who are busy chatting and eating at same time.
“All thanks to you!”he said.
“I’m gonna use the money I got from the silly lady to get nice dress and body cream”she smiled, wiggling the money on her palm.
“You and modelling”he shaked his head.
“Don’t worry, very soon you’ll brag about me when I become a model”Gia said and he smiled.
“Can’t wait so you’d at least stop bragging”he said and they continued talking.
“Are they that close?”Stefan asked as he watched them. He’s with Izzy and Allyson.
“Best friends”Izzy said.
“Just that?”he asked.
“Yeah”
“You like her?”Allyson asked.
“She’s beautiful”he smiled.
“I’m beautiful too”she said and he looked at her in a funny way.
“What!”
“You’re not my spec”he walked away.
“Did he just downgrade me, he doesn’t even know me!”
“Don’t worry Allyson, you’re beautiful”Izzy said.
“I wanna hear it from a guy!”she said.
“Oh, i hope you hear it soon”Izzy walked away. “She needs medical attention”Izzy muffled as she walked away.

Minutes later, just few people are remaining. Natalie was still there. She didn’t even order anything to get a free one.
“Should I go to her?”Gia asked. She’s with the others.
“I don’t think so, maybe she only came to cool her mind”Stefan said.
“Hold on”Allyson said and closed her eyes, they stared at her not knowing what she’s up to.
“She said she can see the future”Izzy muttered.
“You’re right, I’m a sharma”Allyson opened her mouth and they jumped in fright.
“Like a witch?”Ji-hoon asked.
“Yes, my grandma is one also, just that I’m not fully one yet but I desperately wanna be one”she said.
“Different people in Korea”Gia muttered.
“You should talk to her”Ji-hoon said.
“Will I get an extra payment?”she smiled.
“Oh wow, I’m not the only one who loves money!”Gia laughed.
“I’ll talk to her instead”Ji-hoon said and walked away.
“You should do the dishes”Stefan faced Izzy and Allyson.
“There’s no rules in which guys don’t do dishes”Izzy said.
“There is, we’re men, we provide for the family not getting into kitchen”he said.
“Wow!”Allyson said.
“Exactly wow, who did you get married to in here?”Izzy scoffed.
“Yeah, from what I can remember, this is a restaurant not your house”Allyson said.
“I’m a server”he said.
“But there isn’t someone to do it and moreover I’ve worked a lot”Izzy said.
“You’re abandoning me already, thought we’re on same line”Allyson said.
“You both do the dishes, I’m the senior here”Izzy said and walked away. Gia could only laugh as she watched them.
“Wow! Just wow!”Stefan shouted.
“I can’t believe it Izzy!”Allyson shouted.
“Senior Izzy!”Izzy smirked.
“That girl”Stefan muttered.

“Hey”Ji-hoon said as he got to the table Natalie is.
“Hi”she smiled.
“I’m Ji-hoon the owner of this restaurant, I notice you didn’t order anything”he sat down.
“Oh, I’m sorry if it’s….”
“It’s okay, if you need a job, you can give me a call”he dropped his restaurant card.
“Th…. thanks”she shuttered.
“And please take this along”Gia dropped a package food.
“For me?”
“Yes, food villa always do wonders”Gia said.
“Thanks”she bowed lightly as they walked away.
Her life is just not straight. Wanting to be a singer but her mom wants her to work in a big company where she might get a husband but now, here’s an offer from this restaurant. Not even a popular one.
She took the food and card before walking out.

NEXT DAY * FOOD VILLA
Immediately Izzy pushed open the windows, the morning sunshine hit in the restaurant as expected. She closed her eyes, spreading out her hands.
“Indeed”Stefan scoffed and she opened her eyes.
“Good morning junior”she smirked and he scoffed.
“Good morning everyone!”Gia rushed in with the happy smile she do have on.
“How was your night?”Stefan ran behind her and Izzy scoffed walking to start cleaning.
“Splendid”she smiled.
“Seeing your face is just amazing”he said.
“You should go do your work Stefan and stop flirting around”Ji-hoon said behind him and he jumped up.
“Good morning boss!”he said awkwardly.
“Get to work”Ji-hoon snapped.
“I heard it’s sweet”he dropped a cookie on the kitchen stand before rushing off.
“He’s just too cute”Gia smiled, putting the cookie in her chef apron pocket.
“Cute?”Ji-hoon scoffed.
“Come on, his acting skills are amazing”she said.
“Wh@tëver!”he scoffed.
“You’re getting jealous”she laughed.
“That’s not the right word”he scoffed.
“You skipped the part, you slept well?”she said, standing behind him.
“Cause someone already asked you and I heard your reply”he said.
“Ah, you’re really jealous, we should just date, my sister would draw out all your money”she said and he faced her.
“Don’t worry best friend, I’m all yours”she winked and went back to her business.
“I opened an account on insta…..”he was still talking when she walked to him and took his phone. His password is her birthday date while hers is his.
“No follower yet”he said and she brought out her phone, following him immediately.
“I just did”she smiled.
“We should take photos of the foods will make today”he said.
“Yes, and photos of us”she smiled and they hit hands together.
“Is boss in?”Allyson asked as she opened the door of the restaurant slightly.
“The door is a door glass and it is transparent, he can see you”Izzy said and she walked in.
“I should deduct your payment”Ji-hoon said and she knelt down instantly.
“I will never be late again”she said and they laughed.
“You’re just too funny”
“Get to work Sharma”Ji-hoon said and she stood up.
They all faced their respective work but no one walked in.
It’s noon already.
“This isn’t what we thought”Gia said. They’re busy waiting for at least a person who would come in.
“Let’s just take the photo”Ji-hoon said and they stood up. Taking position while Ji-hoon placed a camera.
He stood beside Gia while Stefan was by her left, followed by Allyson then Izzy.
“Hana….dul….se…..!”they screamed with two fingers out as the camera took the photo.
“Perfect!”
The door to the restaurant was pushed open and the lady of last night walked in with cops.
“There she is!!!”she shouted.
“What’s going on here?!”Ji-hoon asked.
“You think you can get away with it!”the lady shouted.
“What?! You hit my head!!”Gia shouted.
“And I payed for it!!”the lady shouted.
“And I broke your glass cause I wasn’t thinking straight due to the fact you hit my head and I was bleeding nonstop!”Gia shouted back.
“You need to go with us…..”one of the officer was still talking when Gia pulled off one of her shoe and threw it at him but he dodged quickly but too bad, cause the shoe hit Natalie who was just walking in and she fell down straight on her face.
“So weak”
