《Butcher & the baker》2: Looking up
Advertisement
"This is ridiculous, I am hiding in my car from a fucking general store, I'm just gonna storm in there and talk to a manager, like an adult!"
You proceeded to sit in your hot car for another 5 minutes like a dumb dog, your unimpressive resume lay forgotten on the passenger seat beside you.
You finally set aside most of your nerves and walk into the store feeling a heavenly blast of air conditioning hit you, you take a moment to appreciate it when you hear a chuckle
"Nice escape from the heat now isn't it dear?"
Your eyes quickly find the voice of a short older woman behind one of the tills, you began to walk towards her with a smile on your face
"you have no idea, I just got to town after driving for days with no air conditioning, just an open window and prayer"
As you finally stopped in front of her you saw her name tag read 'Luda Mae, manager' as your eyes met her face again she was still smiling brightly at you
"oh poor dear, are you passing through town?"
She asked and seemed genuinely interested in your answer as you explained that you were moving to Kingsland for the time being, the conversation quickly moved to the town's history and what to do while being here- all the while costumers came in went through the cashier behind you then you got the awkward part of this conversation
"well that leads me here, not that I don't still need a toothbrush"
she chuckled at that
"I noticed you had a help wanted sign and I was just maybe wondering if you'd look at my resume"
you didn't think it was possible but she smiled even wider
"Oh dear, I'd be delighted! We haven't had one person interested in the position! Too afraid to be stuck in the kitchen with my Tommy I suppose"

you saw her smile slightly waiver at that last part, you completely forgot to ask about this Tommy in your haste to learn about this job
"Oh, I don't even know what position it would be actually!"
her smile returned to its full
"We're looking for a baker, nothing fancy just someone who can work early mornings, I'm not getting any younger and it's starting to take a toll"
You felt your heart drop
"That's a shame, I don't have any culinary courses under my belt but I do love baking though- it's one of the few things I did with my mom"
She reached a hand out to yours "oh dear we don't need anything fancy like that, do you know how to make bread and muffins?"
You couldn't help but smile
"Yeah I still make bread once a week, plus anything I don't know I can always use the internet right? I can leave you my resume if you'd like"
She reached out and grabbed your resume and started to skim it
"This seems to be right, you got your high school diploma! good on ya"
you blushed at the compliment
"Well if you can start tomorrow I'd love to have ya, come in at 7 am and I'll show you the ropes, you'll have Sunday's and Monday's off, does that sound okay?"
You couldn't help the face bursting smile that broke out as you reached over and hugged her, you couldn't believe someone is willing to give you chance so quickly, you heard about texas hospitality but this was still amazing! You said thank you around 12 times before releasing her from your grip
"Again thank you, Luda Mae, I'll see you tomorrow!"
you ran out of the store so quickly you missed her yelling your name followed by
"you forgot to buy that toothbrush!"
