Chapter 286 The Spark

Outside the Woman's Dorm, Tkyo Animation Studios, Elffire City.

"Talking about talented people. Miss Riverdale said that the boss would come back next week to evaluate our job." Zofia commented as the six of them walked toward the cafeteria.

"Ah, the boss!" Araya said with dreamy eyes.

Brianna, Zofia, and Mitsue had the same dreamy eyes.

"I have to say that I cannot wait to see the boss, then I can check if he really is as handsome as you said." Emina commented when she saw the four young girls daydreaming.

Every time they commented about the boss, the girls would reveal dreamy looks.

"Oh, you will understand when you see him." Brianna laughed.

"The thing that makes him even more handsome, other than his perfect body and face, is the way he talks about animation." Zofia commented as she remembered the times when Theo talked in the first creative meeting of the studio.

"Exactly! He becomes so sexy!" Mitsue exclaimed with a red face.

"He could answer any question thrown at him. He seemed to be knowledgeable in every step of the anime production. I even asked him one question..." Brianna said with dreamy eyes.

She would never forget how his silver eyes looked at her with intent as he answered her question.

"Yeah, Brianna asked him a question, but when the boss finished replying to her question, Brianna was so enchanted by him that she just sat there and looked at him." Zofia giggled.

The girls giggled hard when they heard that.

"You don't know anything! I was just thinking about his answer!" Brianna defended herself.

"Yeah? Then why were you all red?" Mitsue asked with a low voice.

The girls giggled even harder when Mitsue asked that question.

"You little girl! How could you sell me out like that?" Brianna asked with a fit of fake anger as she grabbed Mitsue and tickled her.

The girls laughed happily.

They loved their work and how they were living.

No worries were in their heads as they arrived in the cafeteria.

They decided to seat together this morning, so they all lined up to get their breakfast.

And all six of them chose to buy breakfast from the BlueCloud Coffee Shop.

It was no surprise to say that Emina and Kanai fell in love with their food and drinks as soon as they tasted them.

Even though they were used to eating in famous coffee shops in Sakura City, no place was able to beat the food from the BlueCloud Coffee Shop.

They could not understand why this shop was not famous around the country.

It was only when they heard that the shop only opened for business 6 months ago that they understood.

They felt very lucky to have such an awesome shop on the food court of their studio.

They all suspected that the coffee shop was owned by their boss.

After all, he was already eccentric and rich enough to open an animation studio outside Sakura City.

It was very possible that their boss was the owner of this coffee shop too.

A while later, the six girls paid for their breakfast and sat at one of the various tables around the food court.

It was Saturday morning.

And the working hours would begin at 8 am and it would end at 2 pm.

6 working hours during Saturdays.

And the Sundays were their day off.

During the week, the working hours would be from 8 am until 6 pm.

8 working hours per day (from 12 pm until 2 pm was their lunchtime break).

But that was if they worked normally.

If there was anyone who wanted to work past the working hours, they could do it.

And they would receive extra money at the end of the month for their overtime work. But no one could cheat the system by pretending to work to receive overtime bonuses.

Sylph would analyze each employee to verify if they really worked during their overtime hours.

But no one, so far, tried to breach the system.

They did not want to lose their jobs.

Jobs they fought hard to get.

Jobs that were so good that seemed to be out of their dreams.

That's why no one minded working overtime during the week and on Saturdays and Sundays.

Everyone knew that the studio was racing against time to release an anime in less than 4 months, so they wanted to contribute to the project with all their effort.

That was what made Theo's studio different from the others.

If employees from other studios worked overtime, they wouldn't receive a single cent extra in their salaries.

And the atmosphere inside the studios forced the employees to work overtime and not take any leaves from work.

If they refused to work overtime and took leaves, these employees would probably be fired.

That was another reason why the employees loved working in the Tkyo Studios.

The atmosphere inside the studio was light and receptive.

There was no pressure for them to work overtime,

They even had a day off every week.

But they worked overtime, nonetheless, because they enjoyed working in this studio.

"So, what you girl are gonna do tonight?" Brianna asked as she sipped her hot milk coffee.

"Hmm, we are new in town, so we don't know. Maybe sleep and watch something?" Kanai said as she looked at Emina.

"I don't know." Emina replied as she sipped her hot tea.

"Oh, that's right, you girls only arrived in Elffire City this week." Zofia commented as she bit her pancakes.

"How about you go out with us? We made a reservation a famous restaurant in town, and two of our friends, who would come with us, bailed on us." Brianna invited the two women with a smile.

Kanai and Emina looked at each other with shining eyes.

It has been a while since they had fun with friends.

Ever since the leak in their studio months ago, they did not have the mood to go out.

But now it was a different story.

They didn't have to worry about anything anymore.

They paid their debt and they had amazing jobs.

It was finally time to have fun at last.

"Sure! But are you sure that we are not going to steal someone's spot?" Emina asked.

"Of course! We reserved a table at this restaurant last month, but yesterday our friends told us that they wanted to go somewhere else today. A bunch of losers." Araya replied with a grumpy voice.

"Then we are in!" Kanai exclaimed with a smile on her face.

"You made the reservation one month ago? Is that not too early?" Emina asked puzzled as she ate her egg sandwich.

"We thought so too. But after everything we heard about this restaurant, it seems like the real deal." Zofia replied.

"I don't know if you heard, but there are two Aether Star Restaurants in Elffire City." Brianna said.

"Yeah, there are announcements of these two restaurants as soon as we get out of the train here in Elffire City." Emina replied as she remembered seeing the announcements in the train station.

"It seems like this restaurant that we are going to today is the best restaurant in Elffire City outside the two Aether Starred Restaurants." Mitsue chimed in with an excited voice.

"Yeah, and it seems it is the most beautiful restaurant in town." Zofia added with a smile.

Kanai and Emina became excited when they heard so many things about the restaurant.

"And what's its name?" Kanai asked curiously.

"The Spark." Brianna replied with a smile.
