Alvin carried the cake back to the car and handed it to Westley carefully.
"Mr. Morris," Alvin said, "this is the pink-berry cake, the signature cake of this shop. The one you wanted." His voice trembled with a hint of surprise in it.
He was rather startled at Westley's choice in the cake. He had worked with the man for many years and didn't realize the reserved and somewhat aloof CEO had such femme preferences. With an inward smile, he appreciated this hidden, sweet side of his boss.
"Let's go," Westley said. He looked at the pink package and for a moment, he regretted buying it.
"Of course," Alvin said, "the shop assistant reminded me that this is an ice-cream cake and it's likely that it will melt if it's left outside for over half an hour, so I'll drive fast..."
"To Half Moon Bay," interrupted Westley, coldly.
Alvin had just started the car but abruptly stepped on the brake when he heard the destination.
'Isn't that where Gabrielle was staying?' he wondered.
Suddenly, the pink cake Westley bought made sense; it wasn't for him, but for Gabrielle.
So, after everything, it seemed that Westley did really care about Gabrielle.
When Westley had not visited her for many days, Alvin figured that he didn't think so warmly of her anymore, and that their relationship was over.
And now, here he was, buying a cake that fit Gabrielle's preferences. Alvin knew Gabrielle would enjoy it.
At the thought of this, the embarrassment of buying the cake just now was all gone. Alvin was willing to buy another cake for Gabrielle.
"Yes, Mr. Morris," Alvin replied, now seemingly happier, "I'll be fast. I'm sure we can make it before they go to bed." Alvin was much happier.
