“Ding! Payment Sucessfull.”
“Please remove your card,”
“Thank you for shopping at our store, we hope you had a good time.” The cashier said enthusiastically, although on the inside he was burning from jealousy.
Noah nodded at him and said I want to tip you.
“Thank you so much sir, for your generosity.” The man immediately became excited.
“He is rich, he will tip me a good amount.” He thought, with a grin forming in the back of his mind.
“This is a tip, for your exceptional service.” Noah smiled, handing him the dollar note.
The cashier maintained his fake smile, as he raged on the inside.
“You bastard, you spent more than $8,000 on a PC…” He thought, “But you can’t seem to be generous enough to tip more than $1.”
“Thank you for your generous tip,” He said, with his mouth twitching slightly.
“You are welcome,” Noah said, as he turned around and left with Amelia.
Outside the store, Amelia looked at Noah curiously.
“Why did you only tip him one dollar?” She asked curiously.
Noah chuckled. “I knew he expected a big tip, so I decided to have a little fun.”
“Evil,” she giggled, shaking her head. “You enjoy messing with people.”
“Only the ones who need a reality check, he was giving me a few looks I didn’t like,” he replied, a smirk playing on his lips.
Looking at his grin, Amelia chuckled.
“You are like a little villain,”
“Little?” He replied, his mind going to a certain figure.
She nodded her head, “Yeah, just a little.”
He looked at her silently, not commenting on her last reply.
As he loaded up the parts into the car, the parts barely fit inside.
“I need to buy an SUV, this is becoming a constant issue.” Noah thought as he closed the trunk.
“So, do you want to eat anything?” Noah asked, as he changed gears and started driving.
“I’m actually kind of full, I can’t do a main meal right now.” She said, shaking her head.
“Let’s grab some dessert then,” Noah grinned, as he sped up.
“Sure,” She smiled warmly, as she stared at the city.
Dropping by a famous cake shop in the city, Noah parked at the curb and got out. He turned to Amelia with a smile.
“Wait here, I’ll get something for you,” he said, offering a small smile.
She nodded, her curiosity piqued as he stepped out of the car and entered the shop.
A happy-faced worker greeted him professionally.
“How can I help you, sir?”
“Could you pack me two rainbow cakes with custard on top, and one velvet cake, to go.”
“Right away,” she replied cheerfully, as she prepared the order.
“That’ll be $20, sir. Cash or card?” She said handing him the bag.
“Card.” Noah took out his card and swiped it across the reader.
“Ding! Payment successful.”
The cashier handed him the bag with a polite smile. “Thank you for shopping with us! Hope you enjoy.”
Climbing back into the car, he placed the bag next to Amelia.
“Let me park somewhere nice, I know a spot,” he said, giving her a mischievous look.
Glancing curiously at the bag, she said.
“Okay, now I’m really curious about what you got.”
“You’ll find out soon.”
Arriving near a bridge, the area was peaceful, with a parking lot overlooking the calm river.
As dusk settled in, the lights from the distant skyscrapers reflected off the water, giving the area a serene glow.
Stepping out of the car, Amelia’s eyes dilated.
“Wow,” she whispered, clearly mesmerized by the view.
Noah watched her with a quiet smile. “Beautiful, right?”
Nodding her head, she said.
“This is… breathtaking.” Her voice was soft as she took in the full view.
Glancing at her expression which was a mix of wonder and delight.
Noah pulled the bag from the car and handed her one of the boxes.
“Here you go. Thank me later,” He grinned.
She opened it, revealing the layers of rainbow cake topped with a creamy custard. Her face lit up with surprise and happiness.
“You remembered!” she said, looking at him with a complicated look.
“Did I? I just bought the first one I saw, to be honest.” He said, scratching the back of his head as if unsure.
She rolled her eyes at him, but her gaze was still soft.
She took a small bite, her eyes closing for a second as the cake melted in her mouth with the flavours exploding.
“This is amazing, and with the custard? It’s perfect.”
After they finished the cake, Noah glanced at her as he packed up.
“Want to go for a walk along the river?”
She nodded eagerly, her eyes still reflecting the lights dancing on the water.
“I’d love that.”
As they walked, Noah decided to ask her.
“So what do you think about the whole becoming a streamer thing? ” He asked, while his gaze remained on the flowing river.
“I have thought about it for quite a while now, initially I was quite worried about how people would see me.”
“But after thinking about it deeply, I thought that maybe I should do it without any facecam. That way, I won’t have a problem… you know.” She said, her voice almost a whisper.
Nodding his head, he replied.
“I agree, I also wanted to advise you to do that. But yeah, honestly you will do great.”
“I’m sure people will like you for who you truly are,” He said looking at her eyes that were gleaming in the dark.
“Mnm, I hope so too.” She whispered silently, her heart warm from Noah’s words.
“Do you have an idea of when you will start?”
“Nope, I’m still quite scared. But maybe in the upcoming week or so, I will give it a try.” She said, clenching her delicate hand into a fist.
“Alright, let me know when you do that. I want to be there for you.” He said, his tone warm.
…
Pulling up at her mansion, Noah dropped her off with a smile on his face.
“Thank you for the help, I will let you know when I set this bad boy up,” Noah said as he glanced at the PC parts.
“No problem, thank you for tonight too. I had lots of fun,” She added with a warm smile, as she stared into his eyes.
Seeing him stare so intensely, she quickly diverted her eyes and got out.
“Okay! See you.” She quickly said as she waved at him before running off.
