It looked very fancy and not like a regular pizza joint like I had imagined. The restaurant, nestled in a quaint corner of town, was the antithesis of the stereotypical pizza place. Exposed brick walls adorned with local artwork gave way to a warm, inviting interior. String lights twinkled overhead, casting a soft glow on the plush leather booths and sleek wooden tables. It had the air of a neighborhood hangout with a touch of upscale elegance. But the real magic happened in the open kitchen, which took center stage in the entire space.Separated from the dining area by a sleek, waist-high counter of polished concrete, the kitchen buzzed with an organized symphony. Glea

The suggestion took me by surprise. Me, cooking for a fancy restaurant like this? It seemed like a dream, completely out of reach."Oh, I don't know," I mumbled, my voice laced with uncertainty. "I'm just a home cook, really. I doubt my recipes would be good enough for your clientele.""Don't sell yourself short, Amelia," Eddie said, his voice firm yet gentle. "You have a real talent for cooking. I have no doubt Alex's customers would love your food."Alex winked at me. "Besides, a little home-cooked magic is exactly what this place needs sometimes. What do you say? Up for the challenge?"I stared at him, my heart pounding in my chest. The idea was both terrifying and exhilarating. Could I really pull this off?

"I have some errands to run."Disappointment washed over me, a bitter aftertaste in my mouth."Oh," I mumbled, trying to hide the disappointment in my voice.I followed him as he walked into the living room. He picked up Chloe who was engrossed in the animation she was moving and kissed her cheek before saying, "Chloe, I have to go to the office for a while, but I'll be back soon."Chloe looks away from the animated movie she was watching and looks at her dad, her mouth in a pout. "But Daddy, today's Saturday and you promised you'd stay and help me build my dollhouse today.""Chloe…"A storm cloud seemed to gather over Chloe's face, her lower lip trembling ominously. "No, Daddy!" she shrieked, throwing her arms around Eddie's neck and burying her face in his chest. "You promised you'd build my dollhouse today! You can't go to work!"Eddie knelt down in front of her, his gentle demeanor

Amelia's POVThe next few minutes were a whirlwind of flour-dusted hands, playful giggles, and a growing cloud of white settling over the kitchen counter. Chloe, a little flour imp radiating from her nose, looked like a miniature baker gone rogue."Oops!" she exclaimed, her smile wide as she accidentally knocked over the sugar bowl, sending a cascade of sparkling crystals cascading onto the floor.Instead of getting frustrated, I found myself laughing. "Uh oh," I teased, "looks like we have a little sugar spill."Chloe, seeing that I was not angry with her and was laughing instead, scooped handfuls of flour and rained it down on me like a mischievous snow fairy.

Amelia's POV"That's alright, sweetie," I said, gently tucking a stray strand of hair behind her ear. "Maybe you and your mom haven't had the chance yet, but that doesn't mean it can't happen in the future. Maybe next time you see her, you can ask if the two of you can bake something together."Chloe looked up at me, a flicker of hope sparking in her eyes. "Really? You think she'd say yes?""Of course," I encouraged, forcing a smile. "I bet she'd love to spend some time with you in the kitchen. Just like moms and daughters do."Chloe's energy level soon began to wane. She slumped in her chair, her eyelids drooping. The playful chaos had taken its toll."Tired, sweetie?" I asked, gently stroking her hair.She nodded, a yawn escaping her lips.
