Previously:

Back at work, you couldn’t help but think about that absurd text conversation. It was probably just a one-time thing, but it definitely turned your whole day around. Pulling out the ingredients to make tart dough, you couldn’t help but hum to yourself. Thank you, dude.  

____________

Later that afternoon, you had finished most of your prep work for the day but chose to avoid the paperwork waiting in your office, so you told Wanda she could take a break. You loved the baking behind the scenes, but also enjoyed helping customers when you had the time.

Carrying a tray of almond croissants fresh from the oven, you grabbed a set of tongs and began restocking the empty space in the pastry case. They had sold out quickly today, which made you proud.

“Ooh, those look good,” you heard a male voice say.

Straightening up from your crouch position, you turned with a smile to greet him but instead met a familiar face. Unfortunately.

“Y/N, was it? This is a cute little shop,” Jimmy spoke, his eyes wandering around the bakery that was your pride and joy. The words were complimentary, but the way he said it made it sound condescending. Or maybe you were imagining things.

“What are you doing here?” you said, a little sharply.

“I recall that you said I should come visit this morning. Did I mishear you, or…” he trailed off with a raised eyebrow.

You fumbled with the tongs, embarrassed. “I…well, that was before…I didn’t know…” You took a deep breath and calmed your nerves. “Are you here to spy on me? Check out the competition?”

Jimmy scoffed at that. “Hardly. My father has been in business for 20 years. We’re good at what we do. Most small businesses fail within the first year, especially food establishments. He’s seen many shops come and go without any worry, so, no. I don’t think there’s any need for me to spy,” he smirked, amused at your reaction.

You couldn’t help it. Anger filled you as he all but said that you were going to fail. That you weren’t even worth considering as competition. You’ve given your heart and soul, your life’s blood into this bakery. How dare he belittle you and your business? And yet, you stood frozen with tongs in hand, unable to fire back with a witty retort in the moment.

“So. Can I get one of your almond croissants and a ganache tart, please? They’ve come highly recommended.” Jimmy continued to give that smirk that you’d love to smack right off his face.

“Of course!” you heard Wanda reply from behind you, unaware she had returned. “Do you want me to take over Y/N?”

Recovering from the unfair accusations from the man before you, all you could do was hand Wanda the tongs and slink back into the kitchen without a word. The fury returned as you paced back and forth between the workbench and shelves of ingredients opposite. There wasn’t much room to pace, but after a few passes you were fuming. You heard the jangle of bell the over the door and dared to peek out of the kitchen.

“Is he gone?” you asked in a whisper.

Wanda looked at you warily. “Yeah? Why, who was that?”

“Jimmy Barnes.”

She gasped. “As in…”

“Barnes Bakery, yup. He’s the owner’s son, back from college I guess,” you uttered, leaning heavily on the counter as all the anger left you. It was too late to reply now, anyway.

“I heard about him! I guess he has a degree in business now and wants to help out his dad. Jimmy, huh? Too bad. He was cute,” Wanda said with a shrug.

You huffed out a sigh. Of course he’s cute. He probably knows he’s cute, too. The jerk. “Um…I’ll be in back. Let me know if you need anything and I’ll come help close up in a while.”

“Mmkay,” Wanda chirped as she wiped down the counter.

Back in your office, you stared at the paperwork before you, but couldn’t get your brain to focus as thoughts tumbled. He thinks I’m destined to fail? Ugh! How dare that pretty boy with a business degree tell me that my hard work will be for nothing? 

A short time later, Wanda asked for more cinnamon rolls and as you set a timer on your phone for the oven, you had a thought. A little random pick-me-up couldn’t hurt.

FG: Did dillweed ever fix the order?

Your finger hovered over the send button as you hesitated, then pressing it before you could overthink too much. Three dots appeared. Guess he hadn’t ruined his current phone just yet.

B: Yeah, he did. Had to chase him down along his delivery route, but I twisted his arm.

The three dots remained after the first message so you waited for him to finish typing.

B: Not that I don’t appreciate it, but why message me now? Weren’t you all “Stranger Danger”?

The last phrase made you smile as you let go of the events of the afternoon and chose to text this stranger once again.

FG: I am still wary of all strangers, including you. But I had a run-in with someone just now who made me want to….Well…I probably shouldn’t say. Plausible deniability. You know. I could use a distraction.

B: I can distract with the best of them. You can message me anytime. What did they do?

Chewing on your lip a moment, you figured out a general way to explain your frustration without too many details. He was still a stranger, after all.

FG: Just some uppity know-it-all who passed judgement about me and my work. Condescending ass….

B: What a dick. I’m sorry.

FG: Yeah, well. He doesn’t know what he’s talking about, so his rude opinion is not at all valid.

B: That’s right! You go, girl. Or something.

By this point you were full-on grinning down at your phone, the afternoon’s events all but forgotten. Glancing at the clock, you saw that it was near closing time. You were almost sad to say goodbye, which was weird. One more message and it was time to return to reality.

FG: Thank you. What does B stand for, anyway? Brian? Bernard? Bozo the Clown?

B: *laughing emoji* I asked you first.

You chuckled at that.

FG: Touche’. I better go. Later, dude.

B: Bye, Franny.

Locking your phone, you straightened the last of your paperwork and headed up front to help Wanda. All the little cleaning tasks didn’t seem so bad as you blasted music and danced along. Crawling into bed that night, you set an early alarm and thought back on the crazy events of the day. It was quite the rollercoaster, but you were just grateful that it ended on a high note. Tomorrow was another day, you thought as you got comfortable on your pillow with a hint of a smile on your lips.

Ahhh!! So??? What did you think of Jimmy showing up at the bakery, out of the blue? He definitely has some strong opinions about the baking business! Don't you hate it when you can't come up with the right witty response in the moment? So frustrating!! That text conversation, though... Who’s the mysterious man? He’s definitely a lovely distraction. ;) Please let me know your thoughts on this part! I adore you guys!! <3

Must-Visit Attractions in Barcelona

Barcelona is one of the world’s best tourist destinations, attracting millions of visitors in a year. The best things about this place are that it's very easily accessible, it has attractive beaches, it has favorable weather conditions, surrounding mountains, tasty local cuisines, many recognizable monuments, and a buzzing nightlife. Barcelona is like a free-spirited, bohemian, and artistic wild child.

The most famous tourist attractions in Barcelona are mentioned below-

Mercat de la Boqueria

Barcelona is a city that loves its food. So, it’s only fair that one must explore its, no, Europe’s most eclectic food market, Mercat de la Boqueria. Here you’ll be hit with a range of visual, audio, and olfactory sensations. Stacks of colorful fruits and vegetables greet you. The sheer variety of seafood, sausages, olives, cheeses, and cured meats found here will leave you baffled. If you want to carry back some food souvenirs, this is the place for you. Even if food shopping is not your intention, this market is worth visiting for its food stalls serving the best of Catalonia’s gastronomical delights.

Museu d’Historia de Barcelona

Museu d’Historia de Barcelona is a must visit for all those curious to learn about Barcelona’s history. It takes you across the city’s history right back to the Roman times when it was founded in 10BC as Barcino by Emperor Augustus. Housed inside the Palau del Rei, here you’ll be able to wander across the ruins of ancient streets of Barcino. You’ll also learn about the daily life in the Roman era as you explore ancient houses and factories like fishing, laundry, dying, and winery.

La Sagrada Familia

La Sagrada Familia is the largest Roman Catholic church in the world. It is Spain’s most visited monument attracting millions of visitors each year. The first thing you’ll notice is the church’s unique fusion architecture, a blend of Gothic and Art Nouveau styles. Although you can spend an entire day admiring the church’s details, don’t leave without appreciating the Nativity Façade, the artistic highlight of the building that was supervised by Gaudi himself. If you are fit, do climb up its vertigo-inducing towers decorated with mosaics for unbeatable views of the city.

La Rambla

The epicenter of Barcelona’s social life, La Rambla is the city’s most famous street and a popular tourist site. Offering the perfect introduction to Barcelona and Catalan culture, you should begin your sightseeing adventures with this street. Flanked with trees on both the sides, this street is defined by its fantastic architecture. As you leisurely saunter along, you’ll bump into hawkers, artists, mimes and living statues all along, not to mention quaint European shops and cafes.

Can Paixano

When in Barcelona, do as the Barcelonians do. So, in the evenings, join the locals as they unwind with a drink in one of the city’s many, many Cerveceria (bars). Can Paixano is one of the Barcelona’s beloved bars famous for their cava (typical catalan sweet sparkling wine) and their big and lip-smacking sandwitches.

Magic Fountain of Montjuic

Treat yourself with a spectacular acrobatic display of water, color, light, and music at the fantastic Magic Fountain of Montjuic. Built to commemorate the International Exhibition in 1929, this fountain still manages to take your breath away. If you are visiting during September, make sure to see the Piromusical, the finale of the Festes de la Merce, Barcelona’s official festival. Shows are held each evening and last about fifteen minutes.

La Cova Fumada

Birthplace of the famed ‘potato bomb’, La Cova Fumada has been one of the city’s most beloved restaurants since the day it opened in 1944. This culinary institution wins you over and makes you a patron with classics like potato bomb, fried fish, Catalan sausages, stewed beans, and fried artichokes. The quality of food served here still remains the same, much like it’s rusty old interiors.
