I wiped the sweat off my forehead as I expertly piped a border of chocolate ganache onto the tray of freshly baked croissants. It wasn't typical of me to sweat profusely during work hours despite the heat which escaped from the oven whenever Pastries were being baked. I felt some sort of feverishness that seemed to intensify the more work I did but I attributed it to work strain.“Entrepreneurship is not a child’s play,” I whispered to myself. I could never fully explain the joy I felt whenever I resumed work in the mornings. I was so proud of how much I’d captured the hearts of the people in the neighbourhood. My orders and supplies had tripled from a month ago when I started out but that was no easy thing to do.I tilted my neck to my left hand side and there was my assistant Ray sliding a tray of golden-brown scones into the oven. She was such a workaholic who loved her job. All I ever did was give her my recipe and she delivered the pastries just fine.“You have so much energy Ra

May’s POVDrew and I walked hand in hand into the school cafeteria, my long bag strap hanging over my shoulder and Jude’s resting pretty on his back. The whole atmosphere smelt of freshly baked sizzling hot pizza and the gelato and ice cream stand had their flavors consuming the whole place too. “Love birds,” a group of girls chorused and chuckled, whispering something amongst themselves while we queued up for our order. We smiled calmly at them and focused on what we were there for. My boyfriend and I paired literally everywhere we went and were so touchy and lovey-dovey so this meant that we were known by lots of people around school, outside school and in every restaurant, bar or lounge we found ourselves.“I’m so famished, baby!” Drew exclaimed, yawning at the top of his voice. “Isn’t that why we are here dear?” I questioned him while answering at the same time. “What are you ordering?" he asked me, turning to face me from the side. “Well, a well made meal of baked chicken and

Drew’s POV“Arrrrrrghhhh…” I groaned nastily at the sound of the doorbell. I stretched my muscular body on my king sized bed while contemplating ignoring the visitor or answering them. The hours between four and seven were my absolute best and I could give up my inheritance to gain some good sleep during this time. Not like I had one anyways. My dad Peter was just such a pain in the neck; a well-to-do father with a struggling son.Well it seemed like the person got impatient because this time, they held on the bell for longer, making my ears tingle. “Who the fuck is here to disturb my peace this morning?” I said aloud, a little angered as I hurried out of the bed like a zombie to get the door.I quickly threw on a robe I hung on my closet door on my almost naked body and hurried to the balcony.“Good morning Drew. I must have woken you up. I'm so sorry” said the person standing right in front of me. It was Sheena, May’s bestfriend and the sight of her only increased my rage. Deep do

May’s POVI had lost count of the number of times my aunt, Brittany scurried in and out of my dressing room to remind me how many more minutes I had left.She was in fact more busy than anyone else in the room. She was the only family my siblings and I knew after our parents mysterious death in a ghastly motor accident. That was the darkest Friday of our lives. Ten years later and we still found every memory fresh in our minds.“Young lady!” She called out to me this time in a more serious tone than the previous times. You have thirty minutes before the priest begins the ceremony.” Anything later than that, your groom would be joined to another lucky lady” and everyone in the room let out a roaring laughter with Sheena being the loudest.My best friend was such a clown and she never missed any opportunity to show it.My aunt had such a great sense of humour but how she always managed to keep her face straight after successfully making everyone erupt into laughter, I couldn't tell.“We
