Bread King
King of Bread
Day 1
IT FELT as thought it was just yesterday Doux Deluxe had opened for business. Now almost always had customers inside. Clovis inserted the key in the front door and unlocked the door, swinging it open. He stepped inside and turned on the lights, and let the door fall closed behind him. He carried two full bags into the cafe and walked forward into his office.
"Bonjour! Bonjour! Se rendre au travail!" Squaked the African Grey parrot sitting on its swing and fluttering its wings.. Clovis looked at him with a big smile, cheerful to see the bird even though it had yelled at him to get to work. He chuckled and placed his bags on the desk, beginning to empty its contents.
"Bonjour, Monsieur Timmens," Clovis said, "Is today going to be a good day?"
"If you work hard! Se rendre au travail!"
"Ah, Understood. Yes, sir! I will get to work on setting up the cafe."
Clovis walked back in to the seating area taking the flowers from the bags and setting them around the room. He took one of the painting he bought from an artist off the street and hung it on the wall. It was a painting of a young girl on a swing, surrounded by brilliantly colored flowers. He erased the chalk board and wrote today's specials. He put it by the door, but kept it inside so that some one could put it out when opening time came.
He looked at the vintage clock on the wall.
"7:49," He read out loud, "The others should be here any minute." With that he took the letters from the suggestion box and went back into his office to read them, sorting them into two piles: Acceptable, and too extreme.
Day 1's customers and clients will be posted soon. |
