Ernest and Lewis walked closer to the man who seemed to have waited a long time. Lewis was enthusiastic about meeting his friend who said he could help Ernest.
"Excuse me, are you Bram my friend?" said Lewis, who immediately turned the man around and turned out to be Lewis's old friend."Lewis! Oh my God! How are you? Where have you been all this time, huh?" asked Bram while standing up and they hugged like a man."I'm busy with my family, Bram, and this introduces me, he's my only son Ernest. This is what I talked about yesterday on the phone. Ernest, say hello to Bram's uncle," Lewis told Ernest."Hello uncle, I'm Ernest! Nice to meet you," said Ernest politely."Geez, you're very handsome like your father when he was young," said Bram teasing Lewis."You could have, Bram. Uh, let's sit down! We're talking standing like this. Have you been waiting for a long time, Bram?" Lewis asked while pulling the chair to sit down followed by Ernest."Ah, no. I just arrived a few minutes ago. My coffee is still warm. Oh yes, do you want to eat something? Just order, let me pay," said Bram kindly."Oh, really? You haven't changed, Bram. Ernest, what do you want?" Lewis asked while opening the menu there."May I taste this chocolate cake? It looks good," Ernest asked Bram for permission."Haha, just order what you want. Don't hesitate!" said Bram, who was rewarded with a sweet smile. Bram has always felt sorry for Lewis. Let alone hear of the death of his wife who must have hit Lewis' life. In the past, Lewis fought hard to get Ernest's mother."Thank you, Bram. Then, I want to order this matcha cake and one expresso, what do you want Ernest?" Lewis asked."I'll just have chocolate cake and ice soda," Ernest asked.Lewis raised his hand and the waitress came to see him. Lewis also said what he wanted to order. After the waitress leaves, Bram begins their conversation."All right, while waiting. What do we want to talk about, Lewis?" asked Bram while holding his arm."Oh, let Ernest explain," Lewis told Ernest."All right, so I want to make a restaurant business. But, I don't understand the cost and what it takes. Dad said, uncle can manage it. Is that right?" asked Ernest to make sure."Right, I happen to have an architect who can help you. For the cost of the restaurant, it is estimated that you will need about $20,000, the first step you have to do is to determine what the concept of the restaurant is, what the name of the restaurant is, what menu you should choose in your restaurant and you have the main menu.Choose a location that you think is strategic to get customers. And of course, when it's done, you have to find staff to make your restaurant work well," Bram explained."Twenty thousand dollars is just the initial cost? Not yet with kitchen needs and so on?" asked Ernest to make sure."That's right, it's only the initial cost of making the restaurant. For kitchen purposes and so on, it's certainly bigger than this and indeed a business requires a lot of money and determination, Er," said Bram"Yes, that's right, therefore I want to pursue a career here. Ah well, when do we meet the architect of your acquaintance, uncle?" broke up Ernest in the end.— The Game of DeathAfter a meeting with Bram, Ernest began to build his restaurant. Day after day, he and his father took turns checking the restaurant. Ernest couldn't even wait for the new business he was going to build."Ernest, is your restaurant finished tomorrow?" asked the father as Ernest looked up at the very clear and beautiful night sky today.Ernest turned around and looked at his father, "Yes, it looks like the day after tomorrow we need to officially do a restaurant coronation and open a job opening," Ernest said."In that case, I will go to my friend to make a big poster about your restaurant, Ernest!" said the father with a very enthusiastic face."Hahaha, sure! Daddy's been so happy lately, I'm glad you've really changed," Ernest said happily."Of course I changed, son. I want to be a good father figure in your life. And yet again, I'm certainly happy to have a great son like you, son!" he said proudly." Thank God, I'm glad to hear that! " said Ernest happily. Of course Ernest was happy, since he turned into a billionaire. His father has quit the dark world. He's not even torturing Ernest anymore. He's really excited about this change. Yet, in the midst of that happiness. Suddenly, someone called him. Ernest rushed to pick up the call, which turned out to be from Hellen, his best friend."Hello?" said Ernest when he first picked up the call."Hello, Ernest! Where have you been? I am really worried about you because you are so hard to exchange news," said Hellen, sounding an anxious tone there that made Ernest's heart warm instantly."I'm fine, Hellen. What about you? Did the cafe get crowded after I left? Was my substitute man nice to you?" Ernest asked curiously."Oh, I'm so good! Of course the cafe is getting crowded like old times, I'm just getting off work now! He's nice to me, just a little annoying. Maybe I'm not used to him yet. Oh yeah, by the way, where do you have money, Er? I'm surprised at the news spread all over town about your restaurant!" said the unexpected Hellen."Oh, about that. How about we meet? I haven't seen you in a while, just say I miss you, haha. When are you free, Hellen?" asked Ernest nervously."Oh, did you miss me? I was really surprised by your treatment, Er! You are unexpected! I'm free tomorrow, where will we meet?" asked Hellen enthusiastically."Oh good then, I'll send you the address tomorrow. See you tomorrow, yes Hellen! Take a break for now, you must be very tired from working all day," said Ernest about to close the call."All right, Er! Thank you for your attention, bye!" said Hellen then the call was interrupted unilaterally.After the call was cut off, Ernest looked closely at his phone. He smiled sweetly considering the memory of the first time he met Hellen. The first girl who made her fall in love and couldn't express it until now.Today is the day Ernest has been waiting for. He was finally able to make time after a long time without seeing Hellen. The girl who made him can't make him forget. She seems to have been captivated by Hellen's beauty and kindness. Lewis, who saw Ernest being neat and handsome, seemed astonished, not usually his son traveled without any sudden need. Moreover, he even dresses up like a masculine man in general."Ernest, where are you going? It's so hot in the afternoon you're so neat. Usually, you're lazy in bed like a vampire who's afraid of the sun. What's wrong, my son?" Lewis asked teasing Ernest. Ernest turned around and smiled sweetly at his father. He was so clumsy when his father caught him getting ready this afternoon."I want to meet someone, yeah. I mean, Hellen," he replied timidly."Oh ho ho, my son is going on a date. Please, don't come home too late, okay!" Lewis said giving a warning. Ernest was quick to show respect for the father. Even that made the father chuc
"Then, where did you get that money? Which lottery gave you that much money?" asked Hellen then make Ernest shut up."Ah ... are you interested in following him?" Ernest asked hesitantly. "Oh, of course! Who's not interested in money anyway, Er?" Hellen said, making Ernest swallow his salivary instead. "Ah, don't you already work and have a lot of money? You don't have to follow something like this. You know, lottery games like this will only be lucky for the lucky, for the unclear, they will suffer a big loss. I hope you don't have to know and follow it," explained Ernest, smiling. "Haha, you are! I'm kidding, how could I want to participate in such a thing? But, your intentions are good. You joined the lottery and opened the business. But, do you still play it?" asked Hellen instantly making Ernest feel trapped."Oh, sure! I have a lucky card. While I have it, then I'm safe, if I don't have it, obviously I'll end this game. Hahaha!" Ernest said. However, Ernest laughed. Hellen
Ernest fastened a tie tied around his neck. He looks at himself now so neatly in front of the mirror. He smiled proudly because after a long time he was able to achieve his goal as an entrepreneur. "My dream has come true, my world has changed. I will become a rich person seen by everyone. No one will be able to underestimate me after this," Ernest said proudly speaking to himself. While in the middle of that, the father suddenly came knocking on the door of his room which immediately distracted him. Knock! Knock! "Are you ready, son? The car is here," said the father."Dad, I'll be right out. Wait a minute!" he replied. Ernest put on his suit and then sprayed expensive perfume on his body. He's really like a rich man now. "Looks like, I have to move house and buy a car, yes! We're rich now," Ernest said as he walked out of his room. "That's right, we're going everywhere using taxis online and our house like this. You have to buy a house and a car. Show that you're rich, son!
After carrying out the employee selection stages, today Ernest will start operating his restaurant for the first time. The name of the restaurant is emblazoned on the top of the building. Tasty Treats, that's the name of the restaurant. That morning, his employees came and greeted Ernest. "Good morning, Mr. Ernest!" his employees greeted while smiling respectfully at Ernest. "Good morning, please line up. Before opening the restaurant, we will conduct a briefing first, " Ernest said to which his employees nodded in returnAbout 30 employees were successfully selected by Ernest and selected as permanent employees of his restaurant. Of course, that's because it's all done in various ways for a rigorous examination process. Only experienced people are welcome in this restaurant. "Okay, let me skip it!" Ernest said, then he called his one by one his employees. After feeling that all his employees had arrived, Ernest continued his morning talk to the briefing. "Okay, all employees a
After a long relationship with the kitchen world, Ken and Darren finally make Ramen and Teriyaki from frog meat. They took him to Ernest's room. Ernest himself, who was struggling to enter the workers' data, was distracted by the sound of a door knock.Knock! "Mr. Ernest, it's us, sir! Darren and Ken," Darren exclaimed from outside the room. Ernest said, "Get in!" and immediately confirmed his seat so that he seemed more relaxed and did not look nervous it. Darren opens the door and a smiling face appears to him, followed by Kenneth who comes smiling and carries the tray of dishes he asks for. However, the smell of the dish stimulated his appetite and aroused his hunger. Shit, he's thinking disgusting things."It smells so good! Did you make it from frog meat?" Ernest asked when Kenneth put the ramen bowl and frog steak plate on his desk. "We don't replace it with meat, sir! By your order, if we have to process frog meat into a good dish. And this is the result, please taste it.
One month later... The restaurant is getting crowded, so many visitors come even from outside the city. It is said that this restaurant went viral on social media. Many vloggers and culinary lovers have come here to taste the dish. Unfortunately, famous artists and people came here to experience the taste of authentic Japanese food here. Ernest looked at the customers who were so crowded. He even saw his employees being so busy that kitchen workers also became waitresses too. Ernest breathed a long sigh. He was happy to see the growing business development getting better and the restaurant's share increased. There's a chance he can open another restaurant branch if Tasty Treats continues to be this crowded with customers."Where are you, Hellen? You didn't even show up to be my customer or something like that? Did I express my feelings wrong? Was it too soon? Or would I rather keep this feeling than tell it? Aish... She makes me nervous!" Ernest said talking to himself. Yeah,
After the chaos, Ernest returned to the room where he worked. His father stood staring at him blankly. "Daddy, what's wrong? Why look at me like that?" asked Ernest, raising his eyebrows confused. "Is everything all right? You have to be careful with men like that, Ernest! They can destroy you at any time, you have to do something," the father reminded him. "Dad, everything will be okay. The man is gone. I threatened him if he wanted to do something strange. Don't worry! Do you want to eat?" said Ernest trying to calm his father down. To be honest, in Ernest's heart, he was really half dead upset with that guy. How could he humiliate himself in public like this? Ernest wanted to punch him in the face. However, he had to refrain from maintaining his restaurant image.— The Game of Death —Ernest locked down a restaurant that's closed now. He's really tired today. The restaurant is fortunately still crowded despite being mistreated by a crazy vlogger. After checking everything i
Lewis looked at his only child with a straight look. It's been the third day, she's been crying to see her son passed out until now. "Enest, I'm asking to get up. I don't want to lose you, son. Enough I lost your mother, I'm sorry God!" Lewis cried holding Ernest's arm. He really hoped Ernest would wake up from a coma. He's very sorry for what he did. Yet, when he regretted what he had done. Someone knocked on the door from outside. Knock! Knock! "Who's there?" Lewis asked, but there was no answer at all from the door. Lewis moved out of his chair and wiped away his tears. He walked towards the door and when he opened the door, he was very surprised by the girl who just came to this hospital. "Oh, my God!" was surprised Lewis couldn't believe holding his arm. "Oh, did I surprise you, uncle? I'm sorry," he said politely. "You're Hellen, aren't you?" Lewis asked making sure. The girl also distorts her smile. Lewis was so surprised, how did this girl know that Ernest was hos
