Chapter 15- MSin Industries
"Yayyy!" Marissa’s employees started clapping when a party order was dispatched in a food truck. They all were hugging each other, and Marissa had a proud grin on her face.
Her kitchen was buzzing with excitement as everyone was busy exchanging high fives. Marissa was standing in the center observing her staff members celebrating their hard work and success.
"We did it, girls!" She called out, her voice full of enthusiasm, "This must be our fifth big order that is sent without a single hitch."
Her employers gathered around her, their faces glowing with a sense of accomplishment. Small orders were nothing for Alexander’s Homestyle Catering. But this one was huge and they all needed a pat on their backs.
The aroma of pies and Lasagna still lingered in the air.
"Now, now, now!" Marissa clapped again to get the attention of her teammates, "We have covered another milestone in our business, folks. I couldn’t have done it without each and every one of you. You’re all amazing."
Marissa threw a proud glance towards her employees. She was extremely lucky to have such a dedicated team.
The business that started with her and Akari now had so many people associated with them. The best thing about these women was, that they never questioned her about her kids’ father and always tried to be understanding and empathetic towards her.
"Hello," their eyes moved when they heard a familiar voice from the doorway. Flint and Sophia were standing along with the kids, "Can we come inside to celebrate?"
Everyone knew about the rule and that was: No kids allowed when the burners were on.
The kids were looking at her with so much innocence that for a moment Marissa wanted to hug them tight and cry.
