Finally, I arrived at the café and see my three workers already there. I raised my eyebrow, confused and curious why they already arrived so early. Bella saw me and waving at me, before the other two following her move.
"Good morning, Boss~" They said in unison, and I smiled.
"Good morning to you three. I already told you since in yours first day, you don't have to call me boss, just Laura is fine." I said while I pick the key to open the café. "By the way, why are you three come so early?" I asked as I open the door and let my workers walked inside first.
"Because we want to see if Tom is come for breakfast~" Aldis answered as she tied her apron.
I sighed, "There is no way he will come for breakfast. Beside he said he will come for lunch or dinner yesterday right?"
"I will bet 50 Dollar he will come for lunch!" Said Bella excitedly made me just poker face.
"Then, I will bet he will come for dinner!" Said Jackson in excitement too.
"Why are you two so excited he will come again? Besides, there's still a chance he couldn't come today!" I said as I lifted down the chairs from the table.
"Because we want to see him again, and we want to see how he acts toward his crush!" Aldis answered. "Oh! And I take the same bet like you Bella!" She said as Bella thumbs up at her.
"Who is his crush, if may I ask?" I asked confused and curious at the same time. Not that I'm jealous! I'm just... Curious...
The girls are giggled and Jackson just smirked before he begins to clean up the floor because he is not really interested of girl's talk. I tilted my head in confuse after done lifted down all of the chairs from the table.
"Of course it was you, Laura~" Aldis answered as she giggled.
I raised my eyebrow at her. "Really? There must be a mistake. There's no way he is fancied me." I said as I shrugged.
"Oh, come on Boss~! Don't you realize, he always blushing when he saw you smiling? And he got nervous when he wants to ask you something! Those are the hints that he likes you!" Said Bella before she tied her dark brown hair into ponytail.
I sighed and just shrugged, "whatever, maybe he likes me just as a friend... I think." I said made my three workers who heard my answer shook their head.
"Well, if you want a proof he likes you more than friend, you must see his face Laura." Said Jack before he put the mop and bucket back inside the kitchen.
"Maybe I will see it someday. Now, let's get ready for today's work! We will busy like yesterday! Go! Go!" I said as I shooed my workers playfully before I walked into the kitchen to prepare the food which will put into the display case.
TOM'S POV :
"Phone... Phone... Where is my phone...?! Ah, how fool of you Mr. Hiddleston. How can you forget where you put your Iphone."
I keep searching and searching in my room before I checked my watch which it's already half past eleven, it's almost lunch time. Damn! I almost late for lunch at her café or I broke my promise to come. I must be quick, because I will have an interview at night, which is why I can't have a dinner at her café. I keep searching until I heard a familiar sound under my pillow. I immediately remove the pillow and saw my Iphone ringing.
"Thank god... Luckily I didn't silent my phone." I said in relief before I checked my Iphone, and it was my friend Benedict Cumberbatch calling.
"Hey Ben!" I greeted happily.
"Tom! Long time no see you buddy. How you've been doing?" He spoke.
"Ehehehe... I'm good." I answered as I clear my bed again from searching my Iphone earlier.
"You are not filming today right now?"
"Yeah, I have a day off for a week because I already done my part for Marvel's new movie." I answered.
"I see, so you must be still in Los Angeles then, am I right?"
"Yes, I am."
"That's wonderful! I'm here as well, how about we get some supper, and catch up since it's been a while?" He asked.
I smiled, "Of course! That would be wonderful! How about we meet up at LaNa Sweetbrew café? I was about to have a lunch in that place today."
"Sure, I read from the magazine, that café is quite popular. So I'm curious. I'll see you there at 1:00 p.m." He said, and we hung up.
I checked my watch again, seeing it's already 11.45 a.m. I quickly grabbed my baseball cap, sunglasses for disguise, and my suit which I will wear for an interview before heading to my car. When I walked out from the hotel, my Iphone rang again. I checked it and it was from Scarlett texting me before I opened the message.
"Hey, Tom. I got the answer why I'm so familiar with her. And I'm so stupid why I'm not realizing it until now! :o. Here is the hint for you to get to know her, because I don't want to make it easy for you and I agree with Robert, it's really fun teasing you especially when you have a crush. Hahaha~
I will give you two hints: a model, and a magazine.
Good luck, Loki~ ;)
SJ"
I sighed and chuckled when I read the message. Really, my friends are kind and have a good humor, but they always manage to teasing me. I thought about the hints while I walked out from my room and went to the parking car. A model? Is she a magazine model? If it's true, then which magazine she is in? I keep thinking as I walked in to my car and started driving to her café from the hotel.
LAURA'S POV :
It's already noon, and I kinda glad that it's not really crowded like earlier in the morning. Paparazzi are coming earlier for taking a picture of me and some celebrities who came to my café. They knew that I have a day off for a month, and I'm not really happy about it because it's really disturbs me especially in my day off. Just when I served the foods for a male customer who is quite handsome but not really my type, I heard the door opened and saw a man with a baseball cap and sunglasses. I can predict it he was an actor. The man looked around and saw me before he smiled at me. Wait, I saw that smile before... It couldn't be him... right?
The man took off his hat, and sunglasses, revealing his brown curly hair, and gorgeous blue eyes which are my favorite color. I know it... It's Tom Hiddleston, he made his promise to come for lunch. I heard a few girls squealing behind me in quite voices, but I still heard them, and I looked from the corner of my eyes that few teenage girls took a picture of him silently. The power of charisma... I think. I admit he is so charismatic when I searched about him and Scarlette earlier from online, especially when he acted as Loki, and I kinda happy he made his promise to come. Then I looked at Aldis and Bella who high-fived because they win the bet, made me sighed at them silently. Tom smiled at me before he sat down on the chair beside the window near the door. I took a deep breath and walking to his table as I smiling at him.
"Good afternoon, Tom. I see you keep your promise to come for lunch." I said as I smiling at him.
"Ehehehe... Yes I am. It's because Chris E. told me yesterday, that the foods from you café are delicious. I'm curious and want to try it." He said as he chuckled. His chuckle is cute and sweet... Wait! What am I thinking!? Don't think anything weird!
"Then, here is the menu for you. You can call one of my workers behind the counter if you want to order."
"Maybe, I can order a coffee first with one cream and one sugar. Because, my friend will come for having a lunch with me." He said, and I nodded at him.
"Okay then, one coffee right up!" I said as I smiled at him before I walked to the counter and bring the receipt to Bella. "Make one coffee with one sugar and one cream for him, okay." I said to her.
"Got it!" She answered before she giggled while she looked at Tom who looking at his Iphone, like searching something from his phone. "I wished him luck, and I hope he got what he wants." She whispered.
"What do you mean?" I asked confused, and Bella just smirked before she started to make a coffee leaving me confused and shrugged before I walked in to the kitchen to cook the other foods for customers.
After a few minutes, I walked out from the kitchen and served the foods for two customers who are the two men sit next to the window near where tom sit while they smiling at me. Seriously... I think I need to hire another worker as a waiter to help me. Jackson or Bella can't always help me served the food because they must make a drink for the customers.
"Two cream chicken fettuccini's, and two fruit salads." I said, placing the plate in front of them. "Thank you." They both said at the same time, I smiled and nodded.
They were around my age or maybe a bit older than me, and I can tell they are tall from their long feet. One of them had a spiky brown hair and dark brown eyes, while the other one had short blonde hair and green eyes. The spiky one looked at me before he winked. I can tell he is flirting with me, but I'm not interested at all. I felt the stare from my side, and I saw Tom looking with a hint of... Jealousy?
"Miss, can I ask something?" Asked the spiky hair guy, make me stop looking at Tom and looked back at the spiky hair guy.
"Yes? Is there something else you need, sir?" I asked smiling at him.
"Can I ask your phone number? I like you. You are so pretty and you are hot." He said winked at me again as he looking at my body. Great... A pervert and he dare to say that loudly. That is so impolite!
"I'm sorry, I can't give my number to somebody I don't know."
"Come on Miss, we can get to know each other when I got your number. So please, can I?" He asked again, while his friend smirked and looked at me secretly. Great... Another pervert than him.
I sighed, he is so stubborn! "I'm sorry sir, but my answer still the same. No." I answered strickly. "Now, if you excuse me. I must serve the other customers. Enjoy your meal, gentlemen."
I walked away from them as I heard a mutter 'B*tch...', I'm just sighed and looked at Tom who glared the two men earlier.
"Tom, is everything alright?" I asked concerned about him.
He looked up at me, "They are really not nice toward you, especially the spiky hair one." He said sternly. "And that is not very nice way to treat a lady."
I smiled at him, "At least they didn't do anything bad here." I said to him. "Try not to hit them okay. Because I looked at you, you are just like want to punch their face." I giggled. Tom chuckled, and I pat his shoulder before I walked again.
Few minutes later, it's already 1:00 p.m. and as I cooked spaghetti bolognaise with Jackson help me, Bella walked in with a her biggest smile and bulged eyes, made me and Jackson who helped me confused at her.
"What happen, Bella? Are you okay?" Jackson asked as he stared at Bella weirdly.
"Nothing~ by the way, Tom is with his friend. And he ordered this." She said as she gave me the note paper which has Tom's food order.
'One fish and chip, one seafood spaghetti, two chicken salads, and one espresso' I thought as I read the note paper. I wonder who Tom's friend is. His friend must be an actor too if I can guess. "Okay, I will make it now then. And Bella make one espresso okay." I said as she nodded and I began to cook with Jack helping me.
After about fifteen minutes, the foods was ready and I walked out from the kitchen with a tray of food and drink, and walked toward Tom's table. "One fish and chip, one seafood spaghetti, two chicken salads, and one espresso." I said, placing the plates in front of them.
"Thank you Laura." Said Tom smiling at me as I smiled back.
"Who is she, Tom? You know her?" Asked the man who sat in front of Tom.
I looked at the man, and saw he is tall man with dark curly hair and... He has a blue... or Green eyes? I looked at him for a few seconds, and my eyes bulged. It was Benedict Cumberbatch! My Idol from Sherlock and Star Trek!
"Yes! I met her from the studio yesterday when I filming Marvel's new movie!" Tom said, grinning at me with his beautiful blue eyes.
"Ah! Well hello! My name is Benedict Cumberbatch." He greeted with his deep charismatic voice, smiling at me.
"Umm... I know, I mean... Hi, my name is Laura Nakamura." I said bit nervous.
Tom chuckled, and Ben laughed before he looked at me again. "Laura Nakamura? Are you a model from Victoria's Secret and Vogue?" He asked. My eyes buldge, how did he know?!
"Wait... Ben... How do you know about her? You never met her right?" Tom asked.
"Yes, I never met her before. But I always saw her picture in Vogue magazine, and I saw her too whenever I passed Victoria's secret's store in London." Ben answered.
"So then... The information which I searched was true then, that you are a model." Tom said as he looked at me, made me blushed and looked down.
"Well, yes. But I took a day of for a month to take care my café." I said as I smiled at him.
"I see. You are amazing! You can do so many jobs easily. I impressed." Said Ben made me giggle.
"Thank you, I'm happy to hear that." I said before I looked at Tom who still looking at me made me confused.
"Hey, Laura. Can I ask you something?" Tom asked.
"Yes?" I asked with innocence smile.
"Uhh... Can I... hmm... N-Nevermind! I will ask later Ehehe…" Said Tom chuckled. Ben raised his eyebrow before he grinned at Tom. I think he knows something probably.
"Well then, I should probably get going. My customer needs me. Enjoy your food guys~" I said. They nodded, and I walked back to the kitchen, smiling happily. How lucky I am can meet my Idol~! And I wonder about Tom... What he had wanted to ask to me earlier?
Sorry for the bad grammar and enjoy the reading :). Give a review if you want to. I really appreciate it~
