Different Worlds

Nina

The day started perfectly. I was introduced to my team, which consisted of six other chefs. I was delighted to work in such a big kitchen with so many utensils and food stuffs. Some of these foodstuffs I haven't ever cooked with, like fois gras and caviar. It was offered in the Sweet Pot but I was never in charge of actually cooking it.

Around lunchtime it got hectic. We had three parties of six and one of ten. "Guys don't stop until your done," I poured the cream into the soups "we still have orders flying in...!" After the first course and main course, the manager came into the kitchen. "Nina, the party of ten is asking for the chef to come out..." He yelled. I wiped my hands on my apron and followed him. It was daunting to be called out on my first day, but little did I know who asked for me...

After our photoshoot for the Octoberfest, we decided to go to the Oberbauer Gasthof for Lunch. It felt quite embarrassing because we still had our lederhosen on. Promoting the Bayern lifestyle and culture. I loved this restaurant, it really portrays the luxury of Germany and its vast culture. We ordered food, and as usual it was absolutely fabulous. Luckily enough we weren't followed by crazy fans. Basti was so overwhelmed by the food that he asked the manager to call out the head chef. My heart stopped when I saw her.

My hands began to shake as I saw him. He smiled at me, God how sexy he looked. Basti couldn't believe his eyes, "Nina!" He yelled. I jumped. He hugged me and kissed me cheek. I smiled at him, "Did you enjoy your lunch?" He smiled, "Oh yeah, the chicken was fab!" Luckily enough he didn't mention Frank or Manuel and didn't even gesture toward the ring. I said my thank yous and we said goodbye. I quickly ran back to the kitchen.

Oh my god. I can't believe that. My heart was pounding so hard, I felt the need to drink a gallon of alcohol. When she left I walked over to the bar, and had a shot of vodka. I really hadn't gotten over her at all, Basti was right all along.
