Who exactly is Cake?

Cake liked to have here cake and eat it. Which is why she so often go in trouble. She got fired from her last (government) job for getting into a fight with the cleaner and then dyeing her hair bubble-gum pink. After she smashed her computer, the office she worked at 'had to let her go.'

So she did. When her boss fired her she went sunbathing in Protaras and got a job as a barwoman there for two weeks. Her boss fired her from there as well because she poured a glass of beer over a girl she didn't like. And so she moved back to Nicosia and opened up her own cake shop.

That's not to say she didn't get up to her old tricks again. She baked cakes, and sold them to customers she liked. To customers she didn't like, she put a little farting powder in the batch and sold them at extra cheap prices. This explained why the Nicosia Housewife often felt uncomfortable at her various get togethers...

*****

Cake though wholly Cypriot in her attitude and outlook, was completely unlike most Cypriots. Not that there is anything wrong about most Cypriots, I love my nation and my people, but she was more ‘pregresive’ so to speak. Not one to stand in a club posing, Cake often was the antithesis of how Cypriots expected Cypriots to behave. She was loud, aggressive and full of opinions. Of course at her core she retained aspects of her nation, the more traditional aspects. Don’t tell me that a 25 year old women who opens a Cake shop is not traditional, even if she does it with a pink hair-do. She just managed to merge Eurotrends with Yiayia-style, and this is what put her at odds with both worlds. Hopefully for the better. She deserved 10 points for originality and 11 for guts.
