The Between Two Brothers
Three Elane Moon Cakes

RR's Meal West End London

"MAS EAGLE!" snapped Sakura was anxious to see her brother like a zombie who was sculpting.

"Eh? What's Sakura?" ask Eagle stuttered.

"I haven't pasted the spell paper into your dijat! How are we sculpting!" sakura's nagging and the two heard Elane's bell-like laughter sounding extremely crisp.

"Why eonni?" sakura asked towards Elane.

"Geez, Mr. McCloud isn't Mr. Vampire, Sakura." cheered Elane while wiping her tears from laughing too much.

"If I'm a Vampire I mean I'm a handsome vampire" Eagle said.

"Kok eonni know that old school movie?" ask Sakura.

"You know what grandma likes to see."

Eagle throbs. "Okay now we're talking seriously. Please sit down Miss Moon..."

"Oh just call Elane" the hijab girl's smile made Eagle's heart beat abnormally.

I hope I didn't faint from a heart attack!

"All right, Elane." Eagle and Sakura sit down, followed by Elane. "Can you tell me about you?"

"I was born in London to Appa Korea and eomma Malaysia. We live in the Suttonn area. Appa converted while married to eomma and they had a pastry shop in the Sutton area for sale in our High Street area home. Appa and Eomma are graduates of a culinary school focused on pastry. Both combine Korean and Malaysian cakes."

"Did eonni also take culinary?" ask Sakura.

"Yes for having to continue my parents' efforts."

"Why are your parents?" ask Eagle.

Elane's face looked clouded. "Died on his way back to Seoul. Ever heard of a plane crash from London to Seoul three years ago?"

"Yes" Eagle and Sakura replied simultaneously.

"They're there. I didn't come because I had to open a shop because there was an order."

"Innalilahi.." replied Eagle and Sakura again at the same time making Elane gawk.

"Sorry, are you muslims?" ask the girl.

"Yes. Casing is bule but we are Muslims really" said Sakura.

"Assalamualaikum" hail Eagle.

"Wa'alaikum salam warahmatullahi wa barakatuh." replied Elane as she clenched her hands together.

Eagle's face flushed to hear his greeting reply in full. "So.. ahem. What is pastry?"

"This I made kuih from Malaysia, precisely Kelantan my grandmother and my eomma and her recipe is inherited from my grandmother's family. This is a serimuka cake made of sticky rice and coconut milk steamed with pandan leaves to green color so different colors. Then there is the kaswi cake made of rice flour and tapioca, white sugar, alkaline water and brown sugar and lastly there is the akok cake blend of eggs, coconut milk, water, sugar, sugar, wheat flour and salt. I intentionally mix sweet and salty for the promotion of my pastry shop." Elane's black eyes looked at the two people who looked as if they were looking at her cake.

Cake Akok

Kaswi

Cake Serimuka

Eagle takes a piece of cake while Sakura takes a cake. The two had never eaten such a cake before.

The two cousins seemed happy to taste the cake they had just eaten.

Elane laughed a little. "Thank God that Miss Sakura..."

"Eonnie! Just call Sakura. I'm Japanese Korean as well but my mommy's bulge is thicker in me. If my brother now looks Japanese Korean" cut Sakura while taking the cake again.

"Elane, I'll take these cookies to my men first. If they have the same expression as Sakura, then you have already passed the first stage. How's it?" Eagle looked at Elane seriously.

"Please McCloud" smiled Elane. Eagle then called his head chef and head waiter to bring the cakes down and Eagle begs to see the reaction of his men.

"Don't finish!" sakura whinek.

"You've eaten a lot!" reply Eagle cuek while going down the stairs.

"Brushhhh!" sakura manyun grouse.

Elane smiled at Sakura. "If you want, you can play to Sutton to taste a lot of pastry there."

"What does eonni make himself?" ask Sakura kepo.

"Mostly yes, like the three pastries I made myself but for sale, I was helped by two of our same neighbors - just as much as making cakes. So we're like symbiotic mutualism, I get people who help make cakes and they get salaries to add income."

Sakura looked at Elane in admiration. "Great eonni!"

"Ah I'm not great Sakura, just grateful that my parents gave me invaluable knowledge in the field of pastry so I can continue the business they started. Moreover, my grandmother chose to come with me after Eomma died and she felt lost but with me, slowly the sense of loss began to divert with me inviting to make pastry, the thing she likes. You know, my grandma had her own fan club, which is an odd opa-opa who always buys in our store" Elane said.

Sakura laughs. "If it's been about the odd, don't remember the age of Eonni. Eh, eonni was fun also invited to chat."

"So I rarely meet the same age because there are mostly in the upper thirties. And you're kind of fun to be a chatter buddy."

"I like it eonni. I think I met my sister's slengean."

"Is the Sakura family not here?"

"Nope, they're in Tokyo. My brother was a rocket researcher at Tokyo University."

"Hebaatt. You alone?"

"I went to the London College of Music."

"Waaahhh, must be good at playing the piano" said Elane.

"Ah is ordinary. Eonni can play the piano?" ask Sakura.

"Can't" Elane joked. "I'd rather play flour."

Not long after the Eagle came in. "Elane, can you come here tomorrow by making Korean pastry?"

"Why Mr. McCloud?"

"All your cakes ludes and my men are all the same expression as Sakura. I wonder if with a cake from a different country, it would be the same reaction. Can you?" ask Eagle.

"God willing, Mr. McCloud. What time do I have to come tomorrow?"

"Eleven o'clock in the afternoon?"

"God willing" Elane's smile that made Eagle's heart beat irregularly.

Fix it! I went to the doctor! It must be mostly sugar in my bloodstream to the brain! - Inner Eagle.
