Chasing His Kickass Luna Back
Chapter 209

The audience murmurs. A smattering of applause ripples across the small

crowd.

Sarah fl*ps her cue cards. “And when did you start cooking, Abby?”

“I was eight. My mom loved to cook, and I was her little sous-chef. Cutting,

stirring, making a mess mostly,” I chuckle. “But the love for cooking stuck, long

after I learned to clean up after myself.”

People laugh; even Sarah chuckles. And for a moment, the stage doesn’t feel

too big, the lights not too bright. I can do this.

“So, what would you say is your signature dish?” Sarah leans in, interested.

Enter title…

I feel a flicker of excitement. “Oh, that would have to be my rosemary-infused

lamb with a side of garlic mashed potatoes. It’s rustic, hearty, and incredibly

flavorful. The rosemary and garlic come together to create a sense of home, no

matter where you are.”

Sarah’s eyes light up and she looks over at the crowd. “Doesn’t that sound

delicious?” she asks, to which the crowd murmurs in response.

“It’s a customer favorite for sure,” I beam. “It’s actually adapted from one of my

mother’s recipes. I love to give my customers a taste of home.”

“Of course,” Sarah says, smiling.

The interview continues in a myriad of laughter, awws, and light applause. With

each passing minute, I begin to feel more and more relaxed, like I’ve done this a

thousand times. I almost forget that the audience is even there, and it feels like

it’s just me and Sarah having a conversation about food.

But then, Sarah throws me the one question that I was most dreading.

“So, Abby, what is your biggest inspiration?”

I freeze. My eyes involuntarily flicker to where Vanessa is seated on the

sidelines with the other judges, her afro a glorious halo under the studio lights. It

would be so easy to point at her, to say her name. She’s the woman I’ve idolized

for years, the dream I’ve chased in my sleep, and she’s right here.

But then, like a flickering montage, faces start appearing in my mind.

John, my sous-chef who’s always got my back, even when we have our

disagreements; Ethan, my restaurant manager who has never missed a day of

work, no matter how many times I’ve begged him to take a vacation; Daisy, the

ever-smiling waitress who uplifts everyone’s mood despite the weather; Chloe,

my best friend in the entire world; Anton, the homeless man who turned out to

be like an uncle to me; and then, finally Karl.

Karl.

My ex husband, the man who I thought I would never see again. The man who

almost took a dozen bullets for me, all over a bag of truffles.

Tears begin to well up in my eyes. My crew—my family—who’ve stood by me,

who’ve celebrated every small win and endured every big loss. How can I not

mention them?

I look back at Sarah, then into the camera, into the eyes of whoever is watching

this—be it one person or a million.

Sarah’s eyebrows go up, intrigued. The audience leans in, as if they’re

collectively holding their breath. Even Vanessa seems to perk up from her seat.

I pause, and time seems to stop. I glance up across the crowd, and my heart

does a fl*p.

Because amongst the crowd, I see one familiar pair of brown eyes, sitting all the

way in the back, looking down at me. Updated at Draмąոоvels.cоm

I pause, letting my words hang in the air. A smattering of applause erupts,

growing louder and echoing in the studio.
