Calum's POV

I went inside the cafe and the movement I stepped in my nose was filled with the mesmerising smell of cafine.

Hello guys so I Calum is a coffee addict.

This place Time Passes is a cafe where we can drink any beverage.

Yeah it is a cafe but it also sells wine, beer, Whisky, Tea, Coffee, Cappuccino, and some more you name it.

So it is not only a cafe.

The first time I came here was when I was a adult.

18.

Yep now I am 24 and I still come to this place.

I am not only addicted to the coffee they sell here but also the hot, sexy waiter working here. Every waiter here is Hot and sexy.

The first time I came here I was pulled in by the name of the cafe. I was a Playboy at that time. Time Passes. Isn't that wonderful? It is like the name of cafe is telling that No Matter What Happened In Your Past, Time Passes So Never Give Up. It is like it was a statement ment for me at that time. My mom was a cancer patient while my dad who was a alcoholic. So I was having trouble in concentrating both in my studies and work. And I also have to take care of my mom. So I could not give up because it is my mom we are talking about. So I ended up being a Playboy. But somehow I couldn't do anything and she died. It was heart breaking. I thought of giving up the moment my mom died but I entered the cafe and I thought I guess giving life a second chance won't hurt and the cafe gave me courage to live a better life. I hope my mom is proud of me.

So now I am a successful doctor and I am proud of myself.

As I went in further and sat in a bench for two I heard the workers talking about something.

Like there was bad news.

"I don't want to give up on my cafe" I heard the owner say.

I frowned and went to the owner.

She was a old woman in her 70s. 

"Mam can I know what you are talking about?" I asked.

"Oh Calum baby I am sorry to tell you this but a guy named Xander Cage is telling that he bought this place and now he want me to empty this cafe and give it to him" she said in a hurt tone.

I laughed and said "Who does he think he is Huh? He seems like a guy who jumped out of a cartoon. His name suggests it. I will show him the cafe's power".

She smiled at me as I left the cafe.

"Siri who is Xander Cage?" I asked to her.

"According to Wikipedia Xander Cage is a well known Business man who is known for his courage and truthful way of working" she said.

Then fuck him. I don't care if is a truthful business man I will do anything to get back our cafe.

"Siri address to Xander Cage' s office" I said.

"According to Wikipedia ***** " she said.

"Thanks Siri" I said.

I quickly ran to my car and got to the address.

I said to reciptionist "I want to meet Xander Cage".

"Do you have an appointment sir?" She asked.

I sighed and said "No but I want to meet him now".

"Is it related to business or something personal sir?" She asked.

"Personal" I said.

I don't know why I said that but she let me go to the top floor.

I sighed as I got in the elevator.

I went to the top floor and there was only one door so I knocked on it.

"Come in" a rough voice said.

I went in and was met with a man little older than me with black shirt and a black jeans.

His top two buttons were undone.

"Well I don't want to beat around the bush but Mr.Cage I want you to let go of the cafe and give it back to the owner" I said.

He laughed at me and I lost it as I shouted "You think I am funny and am joking with you. Look old man I don't care. Espèce ď idiot".

"Mon chéri you want me to give the cafe back to the owner huh. But if I give it to the owner I will be facing with loss and my business may go down. I don't want that do I? No amour" he said.

I glared at him as I said "I will buy you a cup of coffee".

He chuckled as he said "I would love a cup of coffee belle but still I can't let the cafe go out of my hand".

"S'il vous plaît" I said to him. He looked at me as he said "I can't amour".

"Fuck this. I am going to lose my patience. Fucking let the cafe go" I yelled at him.

He sighed as he said "I am saying the same. Don't fucking test my patience".

I went towards his desk as I slammed my hand in it making some papers fly.

"Look I will do anything to get our cafe back" I yelled at him.

"Then go fucking talk to my père" he yelled back.

I instantly took my phone out as I asked  "Siri who is Xander Cage's father?"

"According to Wikipedia Xander Cage's father's name is Leonardo Cage. He is also a powerful business man" she said.

"Thanks" I said.

"Alright now tell me where your père is?" I asked him.

"Home" he said.

"Where is your home?" I asked him.

He told me the address as I took my car and left to his home.

*Ding Dong*

A lady opened the door as she said "Can I know who you are sir?"

"I am here to meet Leonardo Cage" I said.

"Okay come in cher" she said.

I went inside and up to his room.

I knocked his room door as he said "Come in".

"Sir I am Calum. I am here to talk to you about-" I was cut off when he said "I know cher. You are here to talk about the cafe right. Well I will let it go".

"You serious po?" I asked shocked.

"Well I wouldn't have just given it to you but my son requested me to give the cafe back and he was desperate" he said chuckling.

I was wide eye and I felt my cheeks heat up as I asked him "Your son asked you for it".

"No no he begged for me to give it to you" he said.

I nodded as I left to his office.

I went inside his office and went to his office room.

"I am sorry if I called you idiot. Thanks" I said blushing.

I don't know why I was blushing but I was red like a tomato.

"Not a problem Mon chéri" he said.

"Anyway, amour can we go on a date?" He asked .

I was shocked as I smiled at him and said "I would love to".

He smiled at me as he came to me.

"Now that I think about it, old man you are quite handsome" I said.

"I am not a old man.*pout* I am only 26 years old"  he said.

I pinched his cheeks as I smiled at him widely.

"Cute" I said.

"No I am not" he said.

"Yes you are cute amour" I said playfully.

But I was shocked when I felt lips press against mine.
