Chapter 5

After that, they all sat and discussed the deal. Dan and Tim explained to them their entire plan. They told them how they could expand it. Besides this cafe, there is a small old empty cottage owned by the Thompsons that could collapse any time. So, they can increase the land of this cafe and add a few more interiors, which can definitely gain publicity and profit. At present, this place only has a small library, but they can also build a music room, a cybercafé, and a small stage. Though it will be quite a work, it will be worth it in the end.

Lots of young teens are fond of music, so they can work and practice here. The room would, of course, have soundproof walls so that other customers wouldn’t be disturbed. The band or musicians can also perform on the stage, which will be built in the primary area. He also gave the idea of having Friday night as a stage night where people can perform and showcase their talent, or one day a week, they can conduct a karaoke night when young and old people can enjoy themselves.

The cybercafé is also a promising idea, as many people have difficulty working from home, but they can utilize their time here.

“What do you think, Dean?” He asked him

“It’s really interesting and promising,” he replied thoughtfully.

“Dad, I think it will be great for the cafe. Don’t you think Ella?” Rosey ignored Tim completely.

“Ya Rosey, it’s a great idea.” Shortca... he meant, Ella replied. However, she sounded hesitant.

“Then it’s a deal, Daniel. I want you to contact Ella and Rosey about the whole interior thing. Ella and Rosey, you are both in charge of this new plan.”

Well, Dan thinks fate has given him and Ella’s relationship one more chance.

Oh, boy! It will take almost a year or more to complete this new plan. How the hell is Ella supposed to deal with it? Spending time with Dan for one entire year. She can’t even back out because this cafe means a lot to her. She cannot run away from this place. The people here are someone whom she can call hers. Dean has been a father figure to her, more than her very own father. Tinsley, his wife, is like her own mother, who she never had, and Rosey is her best friend and sister.

She needs to deal with this. She couldn’t run away again. Ella needs to face her past. She just hopes, in the end, she still has her daughter Lily with her. Her only reason for living. And hopefully, this unfortunate situation won’t affect her and her daughter emotionally.
