Volume 7 Chapter 22: You Need Help

Keith dragged his cart back to his location again. The customers made way for him to set up. There's such a long line. Keith noticed there were more people than last time.

"I would like to have lamb crepe and seared boffalo!"

"I want some soup!"

The customers started to call out their orders to him.

"Please wait a minute, folks." Keith continued to work as quickly as possible. But as he did, there was something wrong. There were more customers for him to handle! He could usually listen to their orders while he worked. But not this time.

"Kid, can't you do something about the lines?!" Cedric groaned as he walked out from the lines. There were still 20 people ahead of him!

"Should I hire someone?" Keith muttered. That was something he knew would happen sooner or later. With those words alone, some customers perked up,

"That would be great!"

"Yeah!"

"That way, you only need to focus on your cooking!"

Dalen and Dennis quickly agreed. Having someone wait on the orders would give Keith an easier time to cook.

"You know it." Herrick and Melor grinned.

That only caused Alfia to scoff, "You two didn't do anything. We had to take you off of taking orders." In the middle of that, Herrick and Melor had to be taken away.

The two couldn't do it. Instead, Keith had them be security, making them watch over the line.

Scarlet held his hand, "You don't need to worry about anything. I will help you out in any way we can."

"Hey, stop being so handsy with him." Alfia grabbed Scarlet, wanting to pull her off. However, she wasn't budging at all.

"There's another arm, go take that." Without a second later, she shrugged Alfia over to Keith's other arm.

"Ah," Alfia's scratched her head, not knowing what to do. That was how embarrassed she was. She couldn't believe it. Yet, Alfia continued to hold onto it like there was nothing wrong.

Herrick and Melor watched this circus show from the sidelines. Keith chuckled, "Let's go home now."

...

Late at night, Keith wondered what to do. What Cedric said was right; I should get someone to help out. Alfia and Scarlet really helped out his cart today.

I should ask them about it.
