Chapter 1012 Is It Time To Eat The Cake?
“Meow, meow?”
Ugly Duckling looked confusedly at the round snowball.
Anna also stared at the snowball for a while before continuing to make a snowman as she stifled her giggle.
…
“Boss, is this arrangement okay?” Yabemiya asked Mag.
“It’s very thoughtful. I believe little Kyle will like it.” Mag nodded and pulled his clothes to cover himself tighter as he said, “But this temperature seems a little too low for someone ill. Although the theme for tonight is ice and snow, the temperature can’t be too low.”
“But if we increase the temperature, the ice and snow will melt,” Miya said.
“Leave that to me.” Mag walked over to the central air conditioning control board.
One of the basic functions of this air conditioning system that the system set up back then was localized temperature control. However, the operation was a little complicated. Usually, Miya and the rest would basically use the idiot-proof one-button operation that the system set to match the day’s weather and humidity to give the customers the most comfortable dining experience.
The moment the heater was switched on, the temperature in the central area started to rise to around 20°C, while the peripheral regions remained at 0°C. That way, there would not be any changes to the previous setup because of the rise in temperature.
When he felt the temperature rise and the air become warmer, Mag nodded with satisfaction. Although it might not necessarily help the child, if this was going to be his last birthday, hopefully he would be able to spend it happily.
“The temperature really became higher only in the center! That’s impressive, Boss!” Miya exclaimed after walking back and forth in the peripheral region.
“Is the ice cream cake ready?” Mag walked over to the work area.
“It’s already ready. Mr. Curtis had already paid the deposit. He wanted the biggest cake, so we made a 32-inch three-tier ice cream cake,” Miya said as she followed behind Mag.
He had to admit that Miya was indeed talented in dessert and cake-making. On the 32-inch ice cream cake, there were two orcs, one large and one small, on the top tier, looking into the distance as they huddled together. Their life-like eyes were filled with hope.
“Very good.” Mag nodded. This was already beyond what he had taught Miya. She was really talented.
“This is a birthday party, so be more relaxed later and let the children have fun,” Mag told everyone in the restaurant when he walked out of the work area.
Everyone nodded and understood what Mag meant.
“Ding~”
The doorbell rang.
“Coming.” Miya’s eyes lit up, and she walked towards the door.
When she opened the door, a tall and skinny orc stood at the door, holding a skinny little orc.
The lights in the shop dimmed immediately, and the colored lights lit up on the snow, presenting a beautiful world of ice and snow.
The little orc’s listless eyes lit up immediately as though he had discovered a new land. The glistening ice elves and setting filled with snow made him feel as though he had fallen into a wonderland.
“Wow, it’s beautiful,” the little orc exclaimed and subconsciously let go of his father’s hand as he walked into the ice cream shop alone. The place looked like it just snowed heavily. There were thick piles of snow and little snowmen. Everything looked so real that a pure smile hung on his slightly pale face.
Tears welled up in Curtis’s eyes. Ever since Kyle had fallen ill, he had not seen a smile on his face for a very long time. He looked at the people in the shop with gratitude.
“What a pity I didn’t get to see what it looked like when it snowed, ‘ Kyle said with a slight disappointment.
“Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you…” Just then, the birthday song was sung gently. Firis and Babla pushed a giant ice cream cake with a thin candle on it out on a little cart.
At the same time, snowflakes started fluttering in the sky, descending slowly from nowhere.
“It’s snowing! It’s snowing!!!”
Little Kyle was stunned for a while before he exclaimed in surprise. He reached his little hand out to hold the snowflakes. When the snowflakes landed on his hand, it felt cold, but they quickly melted. The smile on his face became wider as though he had seen the most beautiful thing in the world.
Curtis turned his head around to wipe his tears. He looked at little Kyle with his eyes red. What a nice child he would be if he did not fall ill. Why must my child be down with such illness… Why must he endure such pain!
What illness is this? Why is he so pale? Mag frowned slightly and looked at Kyle. Usually, an orc’s skin was green, but this child looked like an orc with faded colors. His exposed skin was almost white, and he was probably so greatly tortured by the illness that he was only left with skin and bones.
He was just a five- to six-year-old child, and that broke Mag’s heart.
Miya walked to little Kyle with a crown and put it on his head with a smile as she said, “Happy birthday, little Kyle!”
“Happy birthday!” everyone said with a smile, making the atmosphere cozy and welcoming.
“Thank you, Big Sister Miya. Thank you… Thank you, everyone,” Kyle said as he stifled a cry.
Kyle looked at the large cake and the smiles on everyone’s faces, and tears welled up in his eyes as well.
“This is a birthday party your father prepared for you. Let us spend your birthday with you today,” Miya said.
“Mm-hm.” Kyle nodded. He turned back to look at Curtis. “Thank you, Father.”
“It’s said that if you make a wish before blowing out the candle, the wish will come true. Now, little Kyle, close your eyes and make a wish before blowing the candle out with your father,” Miya said with a smile.
Curtis walked over, picked Kyle up, and walked towards the cake.
Kyle closed his eyes and put his hands together as he made a wish in silence. After that, he opened his eyes and blew the candle out with Curtis.
“I hope that even if I were to leave, Father can continue living happily and healthily,” Kyle said softly as he looked at Curtis.
Curtis tightened his grip on Kyle, and his tears fell silently.
The shop fell silent all of a sudden. Everyone could not bear to watch this scene.
What a nice child. Why did he have to fall ill with such a strange disease?
Just then, Amy peeked her little head out, and asked, “After blowing the candle out, is it time to eat the cake?” She looked at the three-tier ice cream cake and gulped.
The silence remained for a while. Everyone had a slightly strange expression.
Curtis wiped his tears and squeezed out a smile as he said, “Little Kyle, let’s cut the cake together and share it with big brothers and sisters and the children.”
