The next day, Mimi was helping me in the café. I was pretty sure it was less âhelpingâ and asking about all the details of my adventure the previous day more.
âSo, how big is his house?â She stared at me as I sorted some baked goods into a glass case.
In between serving customers and clearing tables, I told her about his multi-story mansion and all its floors and different rooms and activities available. I showed her a picture I took with my phone from my bedroom and the view of the city.
âOh my God. This man is far more richer than I thought.â Mimi said as her eyes widened.
She scanned through the rest of my photos and arrived at the picture of Kayla. âOh. Wow. She really is a pretty little thing.â
The memory of our force-feed festival brought a smile to my face. âShe is Kyla, Xanderâs daughter. She is an adorable barbie doll.â
âYeah, she is. But it looks like someone adores you more than anything.â
âWhat do you mean?â I blushed as she showed me pictures and Xander was staring at me in almost every picture. Mimi took me to a table with a cup of coffee, so we could talk without further interruptions.
Luckily, the new waitress we appointed was a fast learner and she was able to take over some of my tasks. âThe funny thing was, while I was playing with Kayla, it felt so natural and easy to feel like I belonged there. Maybe itâs just my emotions getting in the way, but I realized I would love to be a mother one day.â
âMaybe you can be Kaylaâs mother,â Mimi teased me, but I just shrugged her off.
âDonât be ridiculous; this arrangement will soon be over. Anyway, I donât know much about her real mother. It seems to be a very touchy subject and I donât want to be nosy. So far all I know is that her name is Lolita and she left when Kayla was a few months old. I donât know why she left, or why she came back. I didnât understand how a mother could leave her child behind, especially a sweet and innocent little girl like Kayla. Sitting there with her yesterday made me feel so happy. There was a silly smile on my face that I couldnât hide. At one point, I thought Becky was going to get nervous around me, looking like a psycho smiling the whole time.â
âBut you are a psycho for not seeing all the signs from Xander. He likes you and he likes you a lot!â Mimi insisted as I rolled my eyes.
âMimi, stop teasing me. Heâs just a self-confident man whoâs used to getting everything he wants. If Mr. Xander doesnât get his way, he acts like a spoiled brat. I donât think I want to spend my life with someone like that.â Mimi smiled at me knowingly and it irritated me to think that she knew I had developed feelings for Xander.
âWho is this hunk and where were you?â
âOh, thatâs Ricardo.
