Chapter Two
It had been three months since Hannah and Jay’s celebratory dinner. Their anniversary had come and gone, with Jay presenting Hannah with the most beautiful sapphire earrings. They were closer than ever and had a relationship that others seemed to envy. Hannah had finished university for the summer now, with only one year remaining. She had passed the year with perfect marks; top of her class. She was working full time, and still saving for her future. Her bakery section in the shop was thriving; so much so that Jay employed someone else to do Hannah’s old job so Hannah could focus solely on her cupcakes. Her replacement, Steph, was lovely and friendly; Hannah liked her very much. They often joked and laughed together, making the day go quicker. They had become close, sharing secrets and girly lunches. Work was so sociable with her boyfriend and her new best friend; Hannah loved every minute of it.
Icing a particularly delicious carrot cake, Hannah thought about her new ideas for the bakery, wondering how Jay would respond. He was so supportive of her work, and she was desperate for that to continue. She had some samples in her bag; just in case he wanted to try them. He had begun to take her more seriously recently, especially now the bakery was taking off. She hoped he would be impressed with her new goodies; she was capitalizing on fads and fashions. She had noticed a new trend in Newark; nothing to do with clothes, but a trend to become bigger and more muscular. This was something she encountered regularly in her studies, but she could see it in school friends too. They all came in here to buy lottery tickets and the occasional cupcake. They were getting so muscular. It wasn’t just Alfie now; although he was huge.
Without Hannah noticing, Jay snuck in the bakery.
“Argh!” Hannah screamed, brandishing a wooden spoon, before realizing it was a chuckling Jay. “You scared me! Meanie,” Hannah half laughed, half sulked.
“Sorry, Han. Out of interest, what were you going to do, ice me to death?” He asked, a small smile around his lips.
“Death by buttercream, doesn’t sound like a bad way to go,” Hannah mused. “I’ll have to try that if you sneak up on me again.”
“Well, hopefully it’ll be a long while before we die yet, buttercream or not,” Jay said. “I actually have a surprise for you. Are you ready?”
“Ready for what?” Hannah asked, suspiciously. “You’ve already surprised me once today. I don’t know if I can handle anymore. My pulse is still racing like crazy!”
“I’m sorry for scaring you. You’ll like this one; I promise.”
“Well, you seem pretty sure… what is it?” Hannah asked, curiosity getting the better of her. She hated surprises if she knew she was getting one.
“Well, I know the cake shop is going brilliantly. I can see you’re enjoying it and it’s bringing lots of people in. Instead of just calling it the bakery section, what do you think
