“Your order is ready sir.” I called for the person who ordered it
That person came and paid for his order. While leaving he gave me a weird look but I shrugged it off.
It's been a few months since I started staying with Zara and one week that I'm working in this coffee shop. I am perfectly fine now except the fact that I have lost Emily forever. She didn't try to contact me for once and I am losing the hope of listening from her again as well.
Zara wasn't ready to let me work here but I somehow managed to convince her. She is 5 years older than me but cares about me like my mother. She is really good. Even Beta Enrique is really kind to me.
He always gives me respect which I never got before. He treats me as his sibling.
Here in my workplace my other co-workers don't talk much to me. Maybe they don't like me or something is there but whatever it is I'm trying to fit in my best.
My phone rang and it was Zara. I frowned seeing her call as she never calls at this hour
“Hello Zara what happened? Why are you calling at this hour? Is everything fine?” I asked her worried
“I forgot to make something for Enrique and he is super pissed. Can you please make something for him and the Alpha and send it to him? His driver will pick it up from our apartment.” she requested and I checked the time
It's 1 pm and my shift is ending as well. I am working here in the morning shift so it won't be a problem.
“Okay what should I make?” I asked her as I don't know what will they prefer
“You make spaghetti with spinach and cheese along with some potato wedges air fried. Serve it with some ketchup, that's it.” she said and I hummed
“When will his driver come? “I asked her
“2 pm dot.” she said and I huffed
Short time but I can do it.
“Okay see you later.” Saying I hung up on the call
I walked out as my shift was over for now and will resume at 4 pm. I went back to our apartment which is 5 minutes away from the shop.
I finished cooking just in time before his driver came to take it. I just hope they will like the meal.

I threw the food my cook prepared in the dustbin as it was really bad. It's not that he can't cook but his cooking is not upto my taste. Everyone has their own taste buds and mine is different.
“What happened? Why did you throw everything?” Enrique asked raising his eyebrows
“I don't like this food. Bring me some iced coffee and a sandwich.” I told him and he shook his head
“How long are you planning to survive on just these? Hire a new cook and the problem will be solved. By the way, today I got lunch from Zara's place. Wanna try? Her roommate cooks amazing food. She isn't very young but cooks like a pro.” He told me as he placed the food box in front of me
I won't lie but the smell is actually amazing. Not too spicy, mild but good.
“I will pass! You eat it for your lunch.” I said but he shook his head
“She sent extra for you. Have it,” he opened the box and the aroma became more prominent
My stomach rumbles loudly, making me embarrassed in front of Enrique. He just smirked in response but said nothing.
“Ahm, I will just taste as you're offering so many times.” I said after clearing my throat
“Hmm sure,” he said and i took a portion of the spaghetti
When I took the first bite of the food it felt like I was in heaven. I unconsciously moaned at the taste as it felt too good. I had tasted many types of food but this one tasted so homely and best out of all of them.
“I told you that you will love it. Want some more? There is enough for us both.” He said and I nodded and took some more
After many days I ate with happiness. My mom cooks the most delicious meal and this one is close enough to her cooking which is really impressive.
“Who is the cook, By the way?” I asked him
“Zara's roommate, she had a hard life at such a young age. She is just 18 but see her cooking skills. Why don't you hire her as your cook? You always spend a lot on your meals. If she is hired it will be best for both of you. What do you say?” he asked me and I gave it a thought
Her cooking skills have already impressed me so why not hire her and eat delicious meals everyday?
“It's a good idea I will hire her. Ask Zara to make her understand everything and Maria will show her the kitchen.” I told him and he looked satisfied with my answer
At least not my mate but I found a great cook for me.
