Chapter 17 - His cup of tea.

"Can you serve the man at table four." He says to her as he mixes the dough.

She nods her head and placed the bread he made in a tray and walks out of the kitchen, and walks towards the place, places the tray of bread on the table four.

"Wow! You are really unbelievable." She hears that familiar voice and looks up at him. It is that beautiful smile of that man she has been seeing of this recent.

"Why are you here?" He asks.

"Like I've always says. I am here as a constable. Or you never wants me to do my job?" He smirks as he stares at her deeply.

Marianne doesn't know why she feel naked in front of this nameless man as he seems to have known everything about her, but she doubt that.

"What is my name?" She just asks from no where, and he smiles confused.

"How am I supposed to know that? You never even told me your name. Thanks for reminding me that. What is your name, beautiful boy?" He asks and one thought comes to her mind, this guy must definitely be a gay, because how can he be calling her beautiful? She looks at him with a distaste glance and clenches her fist.

"If i get fired on my first day of work because of you, I will curse you." She says threateningly and he smiles again.

Damn this guy and his smiles, her thoughts.

"Calm down dude. I am a customer. Unless you want me to reveal to them that you are a spy." He whispers and she glares at him.

"Leave me the fuck alone. I am not a gay." She screams and everyone's attention turn at their direction, especially at him.

She never expects her voice to be that loud and she quickly walks into the kitchen, while the other man watches her leave, with that same smiles on his face, but this time, a bit chilling.

"Why are you late?" John asks and she apologizes.

"Sorry. The customer has a very big problem." She says and he smiles. He cannot deny that he hear as she scream at him to leave her alone.

"The guy looks decent though. Why is he trying to ask you out?" John asks as he places the dough into a pan.

"You heard that too?" Marianne heard that too, with her eyes bulges.

John doesn't say anything and can only smile as be thinks Marianne is so shy and embarrassed.

"Go and serve the next person, and be fast this time." He says and she nods her head and quickly walks out of the kitchen. Surprisingly, he is not there again and she feels bad and disappointed as she thinks he leaves because of her.

'He should probably stop following him around if he is embarrassed enough.' that's what she thinks as she serves the people.

"Wow. He is indeed beautiful." An old woman says and she wonders why they can still sees beyond the mid make-up on her face. She smiles at the woman before he returns to the kitchen.

In the store, a man In black cloak comes and meet with David, who seems to be also waiting for him.

"We have a new person. He is naive and look not any like a spy." David says and the cloak man nods his head.

"If that be, then let him do the next hit." He says.

"Baron?" David asks and the man nods his head. "What if he's caught when killing the baron?" He asked.

"Then his cup of tea, he has nothing to do with us. And he shall also die." He says and David nods, and he leaves the room.
