The Redemption

(A/N " Means characters are talking in english")

Today my friends and I were to go ice skating and I was excited since 1) I like ice skating and 2) I'll hopefully get to meet Hackerextrordinaire.

But I wasn't expecting a group of four guys to come barreling into the shop just as it opened. "Morning" I said from my place while balancing a fresh batch of  criossants in one arm the other holding a batch of apple danishes.

"Morning" the one who looked like the eldest said in english

"Oh american's or english?" I asked in engish

"American" He answered

"Dick focus" A guy with a white streak said to his brother

"Lloyd" Mom called as I placed the trays in their proper places

"Yeah?" I called back closing the glass case

"Your father and I need your help decorating cupcakes for a few minutes then can you man the register" Mom told me

"Coming" I called back leaving Mari to the main store while going to the back to help finish decorating some cupcakes.

Mari's p.o.v.

"Sorry it's just my we just opened and well" I said gesturing to the customers flowing in so Coffee or hot cocoa and pick up some items as well and meet either Lloyd or I at the register" I told Tim and his family in my best attempt of english

"No I understand and two coffees and two hot cocoas please" one told me, "We'll get our baked goods"

"Cool and if you aren't in a rush we do have a few tables at which you can sit at both indoors and outside" I in formed him

"Thanks" he said with a smile

The group grabbed a few trays before going to the baked goods. At which point I'd been called back while Lloyd came forward with flour on his apron. He was making an order of coffee. "F.y.i. the group of four that just came in wants two hot cocoas and two coffees" I teased

"On it" Lloyd smiled

Back to Lloyd

Why does it seem like I know the one with the computer? I thought as I started making a latte for this customer with the machine. "Alright here is your Vanilla Latte with two extra pumps of espresso" I told a customer as she grabbed her Latte

Then the group of four slowly came up to the counter starting with the one that was seemingly I.d. to be Dick, his tray was ladden with all sorts of our more sweet baked good options. This guy does know that he'll get really sick eating all of this, right?

"I'll take this" He smiled like a total idiot

"Your health buddy" I smiled with a light laugh

"By the way my name is Richard Grayson, but call me Dick. the others are my brothers" Dick said

"Nice to meet you"I told him boxing up all of his order.

"My brothers and I will be staying here for several months so figured might as well get to know the workers of where we'll be spending our time" Dick informed me

"Well I look forward to seeing you all more often then, but if I'm not here I'll be at school with my sister this place is actually belongs to my parents who run this place"I explained," Mari and I just help out whenever we can"
