I am the Entertainment Tycoon

The next day, Monday.

Theo woke up early in the morning as usual. He went to spar with Akihiro-sensei and got home to cook for Aurora.

"Be careful at school." Theo said as he waved her goodbye.

"Yes, big brother!" Aurora shouted as she entered the car that would take her to school.

'I have to check the building I made an appointment last night. If the pictures I saw on the internet are true. This building will be perfect for me to open my restaurant' Theo thought as he entered his car.

The building was located in an upcoming neighborhood that lately was famous around the young people. And because this happening was only recent, the value of the building wasn't expensive. Theo could afford to buy the whole building.

Theo arrived at the front of the property he was looking for and looked around.

The building was 2-stories high and somewhat old. Theo definitely needed to renovate the whole front and the insides too.

'Maybe I should demolish it all. And build a building with my taste. It will take more time, but the facilities will be much more comfortable and pretty for the clients and that's what matters.' He said in his mind.

He met the owner of the property and visited the building. The area was big, and Theo would be able to project a wonderful building if he designed one.

Theo expressed his intentions to buy the place and for the next 10 minutes, they bartered about the price. They agreed to seal the deal at 50 thousand dollars. And they would sign the papers tomorrow.

He got back to his office and started projecting a building using the knowledge he gained from his Arts & Design Skill.

And because of that he almost got late for his cooking class.

He arrived panting as he showed the proof of his inscription at the front desk of the building. The greeter said that Chef Pierre was going to arrive in a moment and that I could wait with the other students.

Theo turned around to sit for a while, not really paying attention to the other students.

They were 12 girls and 7 guys seated. And when the guys and a couple of girls saw Theo, in basic clothes and jeans pants, they snickered in their minds.

But one person looked intently at Theo.

Theo felt someone looking at him intently and turned around to look who it was.

When he saw who it was, he was truly shocked.

Ayia was looking at him with a smile. She looked completely different today compared with herself yesterday. She was wearing chef pants with boots and a simple white shirt, and she also was holding what Theo assumed to be a chef's jacket.

She looked basic but she was the prettiest girl there.

She walked to him and took a seat beside him.

When the guys that were thinking about talking with Ayia and ask her out for a drink saw that, their faces turned ugly.

And few girls who looked at Theo, admiring his handsome face, signed with disappointment too.

"Hey, I didn't know you cooked" Ayia said with a bright smile.

"I can say the same to you!" Theo smiled.

Ayia was super happy as she didn't know when she would be able to talk with him but now, they would spend the week together.

'Maybe I can call him to taste my food' she said in her mind.

As they talked and forgot about the surroundings, the guys who had a crush on Ayia were outraged. But they didn't want to make a scene and not be able to attend the class so, they swallowed their aggrievement.

Suddenly the greeter called them and said that chef Pierre arrived, and they could enter the room.

Theo and Ayia stopped talking and entered the room. The room had 20 counters and each one had the appliances necessary to cook.

Theo and Ayia each took a counter close to the other.

They saw a middle-aged man with blue hair enter the room.

"Good afternoon. I am chef Pierre. I was visiting the Sakura Abode Country at my friend's house when we had a game of chess. I lost and he made me teach his daughter some of my cooking techniques. I thought it would be a waste to only teach her so, I formed this class to teach some talents of this city" chef Pierre said with a smile.

Theo was surprised by the reason for the classes that he didn't notice Ayia squirm in embarrassment on her counter.

"Today you won't cook but will observe as I cook and take notes as tomorrow onwards, I will assess your cooking techniques according to what I show and correct them." The chef said while starting to explain and teach.

And like that, 5 hours passed and Theo learned much more than when he was alone studying his cooking techniques.

'I guess seeing someone who walked to the top and knew the common mistakes we take is very educative' Theo said in his mind at the end of the class.

After the chef exited the classroom, Ayia jumped excitedly towards Theo's direction.

'She's too hyperactive. But she is cute like that' Theo thought.

"Wasn't that amazing? I learned so much! And when started cutting…" Ayia started talking super-fast about the class as they exited the classroom.

Theo talked too when she gave him a chance to talk.

When they arrived outside of the building, Ayia seemed a little nervous.

'I can ask him to go to a coffee shop and we can talk more. Yes, I am going to do it' she thought.

"Theo, would you like to drink some coffee with me now?" she asked while making effort to make her question sound natural.

"I can't, I have some stuff to do at home. Maybe some other day." Theo said apologetically.

Ayia deflated a little bit in disappointment.

"Yeah, definitely some other day" she said with a smile, nonetheless.

'Theo seems a pretty closed person. I have to try to make him notice me at least as a friend' Ayia thought with determination.

Theo bade goodbye to her as he entered his car.

Theo could have gone with her as he knew Aurora would understand if he came late. But Theo was an introverted person, and he didn't know Ayia that well to open his life to her so soon.

So, he refused.

Theo came home and made dinner for Aurora. Afterwards, Aurora went to her room as she had homework.

Theo went to his room to continue projecting his building. He estimated he would end up the project tomorrow. Then he would contact a constructor company to finish the project with his design and his specifications. And start the constructions.
