"I also work at Semele's five nights a week. If you ever swing by, I'll give you a free slice of pie," I add, pushing up onto my toes briefly in excitement. Not for the first time, I'm glad that Derek really doesn't seem to mind that I give a good percentage of the pie I make away. It's not the best business practice, I know, but it makes people happy and it makes me happy so he doesn't complain.
