Chương 4: A Different Gretta
Seeeventh Café
"Gretta I told you to just focus on your studies, why are you even trying to help us, heum?" scolded a woman in maid outfit, staring fiercely at someone she called Gretta.
How dare this woman scold a Gretta?
But strangely, this is exactly what Gretta was looking for. She actually likes it when someone reprimands her like this. She even put on a cute face, making the middle-aged man watching them shake his head in disbelief.
"Gosh! Ayana is so mean, I gets bored just sitting around," Gretta said with a cute pursed lips, looking at the waitress she called Ayana with a look of feigned fear.
"Never mind Ayana. Let Gretta help you," said a middle-aged man who initially greeted Gretta with a friendly smile. This man called the girl who scolded Gretta with the name Ayana, making Ayana who heard Gretta's defense cry out in protest.
"But Papa!"
Papa?
Yes, Ayana is the daughter of the cafe owner who is none other than this friendly middle-aged man.
"Allow me please…," said Gretta with cat eyes, blinking cutely, making the middle-aged man chuckle even more.
The maid—Ayana couldn't help but snort, when her father began to indulge in the seduction of Gretta, a student who often visited the café and suddenly appeared in her and her father's lives.
She didn't even know, since when Gretta called her an older sister and more and more treated his like an older sister. Then unfortunately she also loves this bad girl, really annoying.
"No way-
Cringg!
The sound of the door opening suddenly caught both of their attention as well as the man who immediately greeted him kindly.
"Welcome!"
"Papa let Gretta serve!"
"Hey! Since when did my Papa become your Papa, Gretta?" Ayana rebuked, pretending to be angry and immediately snorted when she received an extraordinary answer from Gretta.
"Since I called you Sister, Aya! Love you so much, emuah!"
Ha-ha-ha…
Ayana glanced at her father who was laughing at the behavior of two young women, one child and the other being a customer from several months ago.
Ayana looked back at the front, where Gretta served a customer with a smile, cheerful smile. Until she could see that the male customer was smiling shyly, when she glanced her eyes at Gretta.
No, Ayana wasn't feeling jealous because the male customer at her father's café liked Gretta. However, she just wondered why Gretta always makes two hours at her cafe just to be a waitress instead of sitting and resting?
"Ah! I'm dizzy thinking about that kid," Ayana thought before joining in serving the customers who came back.
The same customer Gretta comes to the café every day.
Cringg!
"Afternoon sir, what do you want to order?" Ayana asked professionally, her smile etched in a friendly and young man in front of her turned his face from the bag he had unpacked towards him.
"One espresso," said the customer, which Ayana immediately noted.
"Anything else?"
The young man seemed to be glancing his face the other way, to be precise at Gretta who was still serving several new customers, before finally looking back at Ayana who actually understood the meaning of the gaze.
"Nothing," replied the customer with a calm shake of his head.
"Okay, wait a moment!" Ayana said cheerfully, hiding her amused giggles.
A handsome young man, unfortunately Gretta rarely greets every time the man comes.
Yes, this man paid enough attention for a moment, before finally focusing on his final college assignment.
"Gosh.... Today's youth," muttered Ayana as have not given the order paper to the father.
"Wow! This order again?" asked the father—Ronny Seventh.
"Huum, I became suspicious if he likes Gretta, Papa," Ayana reported in a possessive tone as if guarding her sister from men.
"Just now, who didn't like the nickname sister, heum? Why do you seem angry now, if Gretta likes someone?" Ronny's teasing and his daughter's delicacy made him chuckle.
"Papa! Is not funny," said Ayana annoyed.
"All right, here's the order and please deliver it," said Ronny relentlessly, holding out a cup of espresso ordered for the child.
"Okay!"
Ayana left together with Gretta who had just finished with her umpteenth order. The two of them flinched when they passed each other, before finally both laughing as they stuck their tongues out at each other.
Ronny who saw it again shook his head with a small chuckle, then stroked Gretta's hair affectionately when the girl gave a large order.
"Look Papa! I brings a lot of orders, if it's like this Papa gets rich quick," said Gretta with a wide grin.
Isn't that really different? Which is the real Gretta?
"You're Papa's best daughter-
"Papa! I hear it."
""Ha-ha-ha.... you two daughters Papa is best, "corrected the father with laughter.
Ayana glared fiercely to Gretta sticking her tongue, before finally usher in the order given to the poor.
"Don't fight anymore, better deliver the order first," said Ronny and the two of them left the counter again, serving the majority male customers who ordered with a shy smile towards the young Miss Grinson.
Meanwhile, at the corner table was a man who had been coming to the table for the past few weeks this little cafe.
This man will only order one cup of espresso and get lost with his homework. Even though his eyes will occasionally turn to one of the waiters. But other than that, he is comfortable with this café and there is also wifi which makes his assignments always run smoothly.
Espresso the one he ordered was cold, but he didn't touch it at all because he was busy with what he was doing. The customers around him had even changed, but this young man I'm still cool with fingers dancing on the keyboard. His gaze did not move at all, not even to glance at things for a second.
From the other end of the counter, Gretta and Ayana who were no longer busy watching the man silently.
Ayana also whispered to Gretta, if this man often stole glances at Gretta and Gretta herself responded with a sweet chuckle.
"No kidding. Nothing like that," said Gretta in disbelief.
"Geez, you don't believe it? Just try it," Ayana challenged with a confident tone, looking up with her shoulders raised and also snorting when she saw Gretta was actually pouting.
"He looks like Uncle-
"He's handsome and looks like he's still a student, because on his desk there are a lot of books about that major," said Ayana with wide eyes because Gretta said that.
Gretta heard increasingly pouting, especially when the father gave a cup of hot chocolate and told her to approach the male customers there.
They do not know , if their voices were whispering already visited the ear of the man. So the man is himself confused, had to laugh sad or even smiling as he heard the maid goal ruled him.
"Tsk, why does Gretta have to go near him, Papa?"
Vaguely, he snorted again in his heart.
If you don't want to, that's fine, he thought to himself.
"Poor, Gretta. Looks like he's stressed from a lot of work."
Another voice appeared and the man grimaced again. He was indeed stressed because it wasn't only him college work, but also the work of his dear brother that made him nervous.
"Okay-okay."
Yes finally…
Without Realizing, the man was cheering inwardly and suddenly stiffened, as a soft yet sharp voice at the same time reached his ears.
"Hi! Can I sit here?"
Oh shit!
