The beginning was usually the most difficult. Once Su Yue had her first order, she started to receive an order every other day. Even though the amount wasn't substantial, she still felt contented.
She believed that things would get better soon.
She received an important order in school today. Su Yue felt chirpy, and she decided to cook Xiaojiao's favorite dishes.
She was just setting the table when the door opened.
Xiaojiao ran towards her like a little bunny, with her schoolbag bobbing up and down on her back. "Mommy!"
"You're back." Su Yue was putting plates on the table. She turned around and frowned at the girl. "What is that on your clothes? Why is it so dirty?"
She placed the chopsticks down and knelt down in front of Xiaojiao. She examined the stain on her chest.
Xiaojiao bent her head to avoid Su Yue's eyes. She meekly replied, "I ate cake."
Su Yue sharply asked, "Are you sure it's cake?"
Xiaojiao kept quiet.
