Black Shadow: Gangster X Family
Routines

[The next day]

Devian leaned his back on the sofa back while watching tv, with an expression without interest he pressed the remote button constantly trying to find a spectacle that interested him. After a few minutes, Raizel who seemed to have just woken up immediately sat down next to Devian.

The brown-blonde black-blonde man's hair looked messy, yet he had washed his face before. Leisurely Raizel snatched the remote that was in Devian's hands, making Devian frown in annoyance.

"That's so early in the morning you've been watching tv, but there's no interesting show here" Raizel said, pressing the remote button.

"Like me dong! Then you just woke up you've been fussing," Reply Devian a little upset.

Raizel only gave a small glance as a sign that he did not want to argue in the morning blind like this, so he ignored Devian and continued to focus on the television screen in front of him that was displaying news shows.

The sound of footsteps rang out not far from their position, the figure of Aiden who had just appeared with a flat gaze of his. He descended the stairs one by one then his gaze stopped on Devian and Raizel for a moment.

It's still 5 in the morning, but the two men that Aiden knows often wake up late are now sitting lightly in front of the tv. Either because they are impatient to want breakfast or it just so happens that today they want to wake up early. I don't know, Aiden doesn't want to get dizzy.

He is more concerned with his duties at this time than thinking about unnecessary things, He is indeed the first member who often gets up early, because his job is to prepare food for other members. No need to linger for him to be there because now Aiden stepped away to the kitchen.

*****************

All the members had already gathered in their respective seats, Waiting for their breakfast to come. Sometimes Devian's voice is heard to melt their mood and the ones that respond more often to Devian's jokes are Raizel and Neil.

Aiden, of course, heard the laughter behind him, but he ignored it because he was focused on his task. Before long, He heard the sound of footsteps approaching, When he turned his head Ezra was already beside him with a calm expression as usual.

"Can I help? All right, I wanna make provisions for me and Justin,"

This was the first time Aiden had seen Ezra offer to help him prepare food. Usually the man just sat quietly at the dining table with no intention of helping at all.

"Not as usual?" Aiden glanced flatly.

"I'm just making provisions for Justin and myself, if you make other members yourself," Reply Ezra is still waiting for an answer from Aiden.

"Whatever, but you have to help me first,"

Ezra just nodded, Aiden already allowed it. So in return he'll help Aiden. He deftly poured the finished breakfast into several dishes and helped Aiden make a drink for all of them.

After finishing their breakfast, He and Aiden immediately placed their breakfasts in front of the other members. And they started to eat it in silence.

[In the Cafe]

Chloe wiped some tables as quickly as possible because a few minutes more cafe will be opened, sometimes his focus is diverted with a queue of customers who have lined up neatly outside.

Saturdays and Sundays are indeed busy days for baristas because the days are usually the most crowded.

The sound of small bells rang when one by one customers began to enter, In an instant the cafe was filled with a sea of humans who had been waiting in line since. It seems time for the cafe to open.

Chloe entered the kitchen and washed the cloth she was wearing earlier, drying it outside. After that, we went back to our customers to record our orders.

Minutes passed, the baristas going back and forth serving the hungry customers. Chloe had seen no sign of Felix there other than Finnian and other baristas. Maybe his foster brother was having business to not go to work today?

But he did not think about it for long and chose to focus on his work now.

Time goes on, it doesn't feel like it's time for them to rest. Chloe, who had finished her work, went straight to the staff room, sat down in one of the chairs and ate a loaf of bread with a cup of tea she had made before.

Silent and silent, he quite enjoyed his solitude yet also felt lonely as if there was nothing less than him. The girl bowed while finishing the bread in her hand.

In addition, he also felt strange, Lately there was no more interference from his uncle after the last incident at his home. It seems that the distraction is gone but he can't believe it just like that, he must remain vigilant as long as his uncle hasn't been defeated.

Geck! Geck! Geck!

Chloe looked up when the sound of knocking spread her daydream, and then stood up after finishing her tea and opened the door. In front of him Finnian stood holding a box of colorful cakes that looked tantalizing.

The man thrust his cake at Chloe while smiling cheerfully. "Chloe, here I am again sharing my cake. The last few days I learned how to make cookies with Felix's recipe. I hope it doesn't feel so bad, want to try it?"

"Oh, Sis Finni plans to be part of the kitchen so that you can make dessert so try to make a cake?" Guess Chloe's origin while smacking a smile.

"Yup's right, I also want to be a chef if I can and if Felix allows it. That's why I learned first," Finnian still maintained her smile.

Chloe muttered to Finni's words and took a cake and devoured it.

"Lumayan, just less sugar,"

Netra Finni sparkles happily. "Thank you for trying, I'll fix it again,"

"Yes, thank you for sharing the cake, too" Chloe gave a small nod.

"Okay, Btw I got a message from Felix. Said you were told to meet him in the back of the salon, not far from the cafe. I also sent you the address,"

"All right,"

Afterwards Finnian goes to his other barista colleagues, continues to share his cake. While Chloe stared in wonder, Why would Felix have to ask Finnian to deliver a message, Can you tell Chloe directly?

He was curious, rushing the girl to close the staff door and change her uniform.

He hastily permits Finnian after exiting the cafe to meet Felix at the location that has been sent.
