Chapter 32 Success
The next day Theo called Sayuri to know how the sales went this week.
"Boss, it was a success!" she exclaimed.
"In the first few days the sales were slow, but when the people that bought it first recommended to their friends the sales exponentially grew.
Yesterday the volume was sold out in various bookstores. We are currently shipping all the copies we produced this week. And the bookstores already ordered more copies." She explained.
"That's great!! You did a great job!" he complimented her.
"I want you to contact my accounting team to ask for money to buy more printers. I want as many printers as the Fuji Co. building can afford to install inside the perimeters."
Envisioning the increase of the cash flow of the company, Sam contracted a financial team to take care of the cash his 2 companies made. So, all the money that the BlueCloud Coffee Shop and the Fuji Jump Co. made was passed to the financial team to write it down. If money disappeared, they would immediately know of it.
Even Theo had to call them if he was moving money from the company account to his personal bank account.
"Okay, it will be done, boss" Sayuri replied.
They talked about other miscellaneous things about the company and hung up the phone.
Then Theo texted Ayia.
@Theo: Can you bring your friends to this location tomorrow?
After a while Ayia replied.
@Ayia: Sure! They will arrive in the city in the morning and in the afternoon they can go there.
@Theo: Arrive? Aren't they from this city?
@Ayia: They are, but they are studying in a cooking college in another city.
@Theo: They are studying? Isn't that going to collide with working in another city?
@Ayia: It is going to be okay. They are in their last year. And in their last year, they must go for an internship inside a professional kitchen so they can work normally in your restaurant.
@Theo: That's a relief.
@Theo: Didn't they find an internship in the city of their college?
@Ayia: Unfortunately for them, no they didn't. Because that city has a cooking school, the competition for internships is savage each year with students in their last year needing an internship.
@Ayia: Usually the students go to other cities to work.
@Theo: I understand now.
Ayia took some time to reply.
@Ayia: Can I bring my sister tomorrow? She wants to meet you.
@Theo: Sure, I would love to meet your sister 😊
Ayia, who was holding her phone while sitting by the pool of the mansion, was relieved.
@Ayia: Thank you!!
'What would be his reaction if I sent a picture of me wearing a bathing suit...' she dreamed as she looked at the bikini she was wearing.
Ayia looked like a Victoria Secret's model of Theo's past life. He certainly would be smitten by her looks if he saw her now.
But Ayia dismissed her thoughts and continued texting Theo about other things.
The next day, the weather was cloudy. The sun couldn't be seen, signaling that the summer was about to end, and the autumn was arriving.
At the airport of Elffire City, four people could be seen exiting the gate. They appeared to be 22 or 23 years old. There were three girls and one boy. The boy was holding the hand of one of the girls as they appeared to be a couple.
"Finally, back home!" one of the girls exclaimed
Her name was Chiba Kimiko. She had green hair and green eyes, she looked like a pretty forest fairy. She was the oldest of the four and was the one that took care of them as a big sister.
"How about we visit our families before we audition for the job?" another girl sweetly said.
She was Takeda Shoko. She had blue hair and black eyes, she looked like a sweet girl. She was the youngest of the four and they cared for her as their little sister.
"I hope we can take this job, or we will have to delay our graduation" the boy said with worry.
"It doesn't matter worrying too much now. We should go home now." The girl that the boy was holding hands with replied.
They were Max Smith and Lauren Brown. They were a couple since they were teenagers and knew each other since they were kids. Max was an above-average-looking guy with black hair and black eyes. Lauren was a pretty girl with blonde hair and brown eyes. Lauren bossed around Max, and he happily accepted.
'She's too pretty while ordering me' he said one time when someone asked why he was so happy to do what Lauren asked.
They went on their way as they all were worried about the internship. If they didn't take a job inside a professional kitchen this week, they would not be able to register for their internship with their school, and consequently, they would have to wait for next semester to register for the obligatory internship.
The afternoon arrived and with it the test for Theo's restaurant.
Theo arrived early bringing the ingredients for the test.
While Theo was tidying up the ingredients on the counter, he heard someone entering the kitchen.
He turned around and saw Ayia coming in accompanied by another girl.
She was tall as Ayia, a great body too, black hair that was tied in a ponytail, and red piercing eyes clad in glasses that made her look intellectual and pretty.
"Good afternoon, Ayia! You must be Ayia's sister, right? My name is Theodore Gray, but you can call me Theo. It's a pleasure to meet you" Theo said flashing a bright smile while extending his hand to greet her.
Even with her serious personality, Shizuka was stunned when she saw the boy on her front.
He dressed in simple pants and a black t-shirt with a manga cover. His silver-grey hair was tied in a ponytail with some hair falling on each side of his perfect face. His penetrating silver eyes showed confidence but humbleness at the same time.
She hurriedly came back to herself and said:
"It's an equal pleasure. My name is Arai Shizuka. Ayia talked a lot about you." Shizuka seriously said while shaking his hand.
Ayia's face immediately became red when she heard what Shizuka said.
She looked at Theo and noticed that he didn't think much of it. She felt relieved but somehow disappointed at the same time.
"She must have told that she became a cook in the restaurant I am opening. I hope I didn't bring any inconvenience to your family by employing her, Arai-san" Theo politely replied.
Shizuka was a little surprised at his antics. He looked like an educated young man from a big family with his looks and antics. But she knew he wasn't. According to what Ayia said, he only had his sister and he had to provide for both of them.
"You can call me Shizuka, Theo. And we didn't have any problems, you can rest relieved." Shizuka said.
"I am relieved yes, Shizuka-san" Theo replied.
"Theo, the four of them texted me saying that they were arriving shortly." Ayia said to interrupt their conversation.
Ayia asked Theo what he planned for the test, and they started talking.
