A Night with the Celebrity

Ellie felt her cellphone under her pillows as the alarm awakened her she set. 4:00 AM. Ellie had to brave the cold weather and get up from bed, while most still snuggled on their beds.She tidied up her bed, then went to the bathroom for a quick shower and prepared herself. After her shower, she picked up her phone and opened an app that showed her all the orders she needed to complete for the day. Today’s orders read: 1 two tiered cake for a baby shower, 3 dozen chocolate cupcakes, 1 dozen matcha flavored cupcakes, 2 blueberry cheesecakes. On top of these, she also needed to make sure that there are enough cakes and cupcakes for the display, so she needed to make 1 strawberry shortcake, 1 ultimate chocolate cake, 1 blueberry cheesecake, 1 dozen red velvet cupcake, another dozen chocolate cupcake and matcha cupcake, and 1 dozen cheesecake cups. Another busy day!After reviewing the cakes and cupcakes she needed to bake, she heade

They walked together towards the far end of the city. Away from the scenic spots and famous museums and from the noisy tourists. As they were walking, he told him his name was Takumi. He was from Japan and was visiting Paris for the first time. (Of course, these are all the information that the show told him to say)While she shared that she’s from the Philippines and came to France to study. She enrolled for a 2-month cake and pastry lessons. She also said that she owned a small cake and pastry shop.Since she was staying in France for 2 months, she rented a tiny apartment rather than stay in a hotel.They reached her apartment building. It was a five-storey building. It’s quite old. The paint was already peeling, but somehow it added to its appeal. Its tiny balconies had flower planters, with colorful flowers spilling over them.Her unit was on the 4th floor but since the bu

Ellie hardly realized that a month had already passed since she got back from Paris. She drowned in her work as soon as she got back. She hardly noticed the passing of time. Her excitement to apply what she learned made her forget about the hurt she had. It only proved she made the right choice when she moved away. Her business has also grown popularity. Before she left, they depended on the university students for their sales, but they were only breaking even. But through word of mouth and the improvements she did on her recipes, orders started coming in. Now, she had clients would drop by the store to pick up orders they brought online or would pick up something to go. Some would schedule a delivery through an app. As for those the app could not reach, she’d deliver their orders herself. The movie adaptation of the manga that inspired her store added popularity to the store. There are passersby who would pose outside her shop for p

“Finally, it’s Sunday!” Ellie thought as she snuggled into her blanket. Her shop closed on Sundays. She bolted from her sleep when she remembered that today is her grandma’s birthday. She got out of bed, took a bath, and went down to her kitchen.宋体; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); letter-spacing: normal; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: ini

The blaring sound of her alarm woke Elizabeth. With eyes half opened, she looked at it then pressed snooze and snuggled on her blanket. It was chilly and her warm blanket felt so good. “10 more minutes, please”, she internally pleaded. She had no choice but to pull herself out of the bed when her alarm sounded 10 minutes later. She braved the icy water and took a shower. After her shower, she looked at today’s tall order and put on her clothes. She opted for a clean white t-shirt and denim shorts and paired it with a white sneaker for comfort. After tying her hair in a bun, she went down to her store kitchen to bake. She had already prepped all the batter she needed when she heard knocking on the store’s front door. She furrowed her brows. It’s only 6 AM, Maya rarely comes in before 8. She tried to ignore the knocking and prepared her frostings. But as minutes passed, the knocking only intensified. E
