Angela, a young single mother, lost her job one night in the restaurant where she had worked for two years for insolence towards a customer.

She is threatened to be evicted from the small room she has occupied for years by her roommate and former colleague, hence the excessive desire to get a new job. Angela ends up being recruited in a restaurant as a cook since it is her basic profession. A few months later she became a housekeeper and cook for Eden Elong, a rich businessman who doubled her salary from the restaurant. Eden is a man in his thirties, single and childless, engaged to a young woman who will eventually leave him for her ex-best friend. Eden, Angela's new boss, despite his nervousness, manages to find his way into her heart. She tries to hide her feelings, but can she really resist any longer? Will she be able to adapt despite all the turbulence that this love would create?
<< hello ericka, hello, hello? Are you there?" shouts Eden at the other end of the wire.
<< ah yes my darling I'm here, sorry network problem surely, tell me you are already on the spot?>> answers Ericka .
<< I told you that it's becoming unbearable to come every time waiting for you, it's becoming seriously annoying.>>
<< sorry darling we are in traffic with Nora, we went shopping and we didn't see the time passing.>>
<< ( in thought: again the stores, decidedly she is never going to change this one). Okay, I'm already getting impatient.
Eden has been sitting in this restaurant for more than thirty minutes waiting for this one who is his fiancée, the future mother of his children.
Eden and Ericka have known each other since they were children, they both come from wealthy families, they are both only children.
Eden finished her studies in the United States and had to come back to Cameroon to manage this vast empire created by her father Mr. Elong for more than twenty eight years.
Eden observes every gesture and noise that is heard and seen in the restaurant, on the other side there is a young girl sitting all sad eating with pain, not a few minutes ago she was still there with her boyfriend, surely they have separated, he thinks.
On the other side, there is a waitress who has just given a bill to a gentleman and he claims to have forgotten his wallet.
This kind of scene is common in this city of Douala where most of the population live with the spirit of swindlers, and in this case, the gentleman does not have too often choice but to find himself plunged all the dishes of the restaurant.
The gentleman insists that his wallet has been forgotten and Eden is keen to see what happens next.
Tired of justifying himself ,the other gentleman ends up saying that his girlfriend works in this restaurant and that she could well settle this bill.
<< well miss stop harassing me and go call Angela, she will pay you this bill, she works here, since you don't want to believe that I really forgot my wallet.>> Said Adrien .
One of the waitress leaves for a few minutes and returns afterwards with another one behind her, this one is styled with the passes wicks which still shine of thousand fire, her forehead all round and shining let believe that this hairstyle was realized a few hours ago in the day.
Her black denim pants that she wears show her curves and matched with this ballerina and white top of service we can notice a real Cameroonian and African woman, this kind of woman who could make you leave him nearly one hundred thousand francs tip without you realizing it.
Without wanting to say too much, Angela is this kind of beautiful but shy girl, unlucky in love because this gentleman who had just said that she was his girlfriend is exactly her boyfriend with whom she has been dating for nearly five years and this one has never been ready to lift the little thumb to marry her.
When Angela arrives, Adrien suddenly gets up and goes towards her.
<< ah thank you baby you're here, your colleagues want to shame me for a damned sum of five thousand francs, come on look the whole restaurant is looking at me while I was only telling them I forgot my wallet.>> Says Adrien while clutching Angela's arms
<< I'll pay the bill later >> Angela answered troubled by the scandal that her boyfriend had just created.
<< Baby what's this way of sending me back so stupidly, I say true that I forgot my wallet.>> insists Adrien.
<< and me I understood it go there I join you later.>>
Eden is bluffed by this spectacle which offers itself to him to the point of forgetting that ericka and Nora his best friend had just sat there near him, he died of laughter by seeing Adrien leaving all ashamed.
<< eh baby, are we all invisible or what?>>
<< Leave it ericka, you see well that it is there to look at these waitress of nothing at all.>> Says Nora by throwing a contemptuous glance to Eden.
<< You would not be jealous by any chance Nora?
<< And why should I be? Hm? I'm just worried about my friend who seems to be blind, that's all.>> She replies.
<< baby don't listen to what Nora says, it's nothing, sorry for making you wait so long, really sorry.>>
<< But why are you apologizing?" asks Nora.
<< Okay, honey, since you're already here, I'm not complaining anymore," replies Eden to Ericka.
<< ah as she is already here, so I am not here what?>> complains Nora .
Eden prefers to ignore this girl of Nora ,this one begins to go out to her everywhere ,she does not stop speaking where one does not speak to him and to answer when one does not ask him questions .
<< since you are here, we will order.
Hey waitress, come here.>>.
One of the girls from earlier comes back to her.
<< could I have a minced beef dish with fried plantain please? Also with a glass of fruit juice thank you.
<< And you miss? Where ma'am?" replies the waitress.
<< Miss, I would like the same thing as Eden but in spite of the plantain with rice.>> Said Nora who was still answering a question that was asked to ericka.
<< Well I would just like a dish of vegetables sautéed with plantain wall thank you.>>
The waitress disappears and the three young people continue to talk .
<< So how was it in the stores, darling?
<< I bought a lot of things I'd like you to see later.
<< I'm glad, I hope I'll like it.
As far as taste is concerned, Eden likes simplicity very much, he doesn't like to be with a woman who is cluttered with a whole lot of clothes, he just wants a simple and attractive woman, no need for too many artifices.
The young people discuss more than twenty minutes and the meal is still not arrived. Nora exclaims.
<< but what is this restaurant you chose ericka, more than fifteen minutes and still nothing.>>
<< I'm sorry, I didn't know that you could walk with your stomach.
<< Excuse me?
<< You followed me well Nora, stop looking for trouble everywhere, it's not your first time here and you know well how it works so if you don't feel ready to wait you can always leave, I'll have your dish taken away.>>
Nora remains speechless, she doesn't know what to answer to the declaration of her friend, she throws a furious glance to Eden who chokes with laughter, ah these girls will end up driving him crazy one day.
Ten minutes later Angela approaches with two dishes, that of Nora and Eden, she puts down that of Nora and puts down that of Eden, at the time to carry the glass of fruit juice, that this one slips to her between the hands and while wanting to fall it is poured on the pants of Eden, she hastens to withdraw a handkerchief to clean it and that this one holds him hands.
<< what do you want to do miss?
<< but sir I would just like to clean your...>> answers Angela all ashamed.
<< with which hand and which wisdom
? Don't make me laugh miss, you didn't even have a brain earlier to recognize that your boyfriend made fun of you, and you want to clean my pants?>>
<< Sir, please, I don't allow you to talk about my private life like that.
<< Private life you say? But it was not private but rather public, and now you come to pour juice on my pants, because you have the head elsewhere to think of him, what weakness of mind you have there?
Angela lets go of the hand that Eden held and wants to go away when Nora gets up abruptly and holds her back.
<< like that the little one wants to run to go cry, but we all know you in this city, you pretend to want to clean up some of the juice you consciously poured in order to seduce your big customers you whore.>>
Angela looks at Nora from head to toe ,she looks so skinny in front of her ,she prefers to dodge her to leave when Nora raises her hand to place a slap on her ,Angela doesn't let her go and returns the favor ,a nice slap well applied which resounds in the whole restaurant ,Nora collapses on the floor.
<< not only you are whore, but you are also violent, it is where the owner of this restaurant, I want to see it immediately.>> Scolds ericka.
Eden is concentrated to eat, he saw well Nora fallen but did not move the small inch, for him, she deserves well what arrives to him, he did not need that one defends him.
Ericka starts to call the owner of the restaurant.
Nick the owner goes out of his office running, he comes to see Nora collapsing on the floor, he asks what happened and they make him understand that it is Angela who placed a good slap to him, this time he has a good argument to make her disappear forever of his restaurant.
Nick addresses Angela .
<< Well, you're fired," he says.
<< but Nick you can't do that to me, you know I need this job more than anything, I need my salary to be able to live.>> Begs angy.
<< I don't give a damn, every time there is a problem it's always Angela, but I'm sick of you, you're jinxing me now, pick up your effects and get the hell out of here.>>
Eden starts to clap her hands.
<< Finally a good news tonight >> Eden declares
Nora who was always lying down ends up getting up by herself seeing that nobody makes her.
<< so this is how I could have died here? Without anyone coming to my aid?>>
<< Nora you too, everyone knew you were faking it, since it's not the first time you're doing it, come on get up and eat I'm almost done with my meal I'll be leaving soon.>>
Angela is still there, in the back, looking at her boss.
<< are you still here?>> asks her boss.
<< Well, I'm waiting for my monthly salary to go away, sir.
<< Well, you won't get anything.
Angela starts laughing with a mocking laugh.
<< Will you repeat what you said?
Nick remains calm and looks at her ,then he puts his hands in his pocket and takes out 6.six ten thousand francs bills that he hands her .
<< He hands her six ten thousand franc bills and says: "Take this and get the hell out of here".
Angela takes her money and goes to get her things, she goes out and slams the door of the restaurant which resounds with a bang ,Nick covers his ears.
<< What a villager that one is!" exclaims Eden.
