Melvin : We’re going out to celebrate Maylin’s birthday. Planning to go to a Japanese/Korean restaurant. Ex-Dea Ba Ru at Green Road. Located at BDC.
Wena : Okay. After my training, I bring the cake.
Melvin : Okay but she is allergic to chocolate and orange so make sure the cake doesn’t have those ingredients in it.
Wena : Okay.
7:00 p.m. Sunflower Deli
Wena : Is there any chocolate in the fruit flan?
Cashier : No, just fruits and blueberries and just the sponge cake.
Wena : Okay, I’ll take it.
Cashier : How many candles do you want?
Wena : Errr… I know she’s over 20 years old but dunno her age lah. Just give me 2 candles.
Cashier : Okay.
7:05 p.m. In the car outside Sunflower Deli.
Realised that I saw something orange in color. Is it orange? Oh oh… better check with baker again. So, rushed out of the car and went back into the bakery.
Wena : Sorry ah but is there any oranges in the cake?
Cashier : No, it’s peaches.
Wena : Phew!
8:00 p.m. At Green Road
Wena : (calling Melvin on handphone) Wei! Dea Ba Ru close shop lah. Where is the place again?
