It was a full moon. A day has passed since I met Alicia. Me and Mariane are about to go to sleep. I was on the floor, and Mariane was at the top of her bed. She was looking kind of angry at me for some reason, but she looked like she wanted something from me. At first, I did not understand what she wanted until...
"Hey,"
"What?"
"Why do you not want to sleep beside me?"
"Because we are not married yet."
"I DO NOT CARE!"
Mariane stood on her two feet and walked towards my direction as she started pulling me towards the bed. I did not move a muscle because I knew that she was not strong enough to pull me. She is really looking cute while she forces herself to pull me away. A few minutes later, she got tired of trying to pull me towards her bed, so she gave up on pulling me and instead started using her words towards me.
"Come on, I mean, we've already slept together like several times already."
"That's because whenever I fell asleep on the couch, you asked Flora to carry me to your bed."
"Okay, let us have a deal."
"I am listening."
"How about letting me sleep with you in the bed, but I will not lay a single hand on you?"
"Promise?"
"PROMISE"
She said it with a creepy look in her face. Her look kind of reminds me of the story of the ghost that comes out of a well. Then her drool started to drip onto the floor from her mouth.
"Nah, I do not believe you."
"Yawn. Please. I am already sleepy. I need someone to sleep with me as soon as possible."
"What about Flora?"
"No, I only need you."
"Okay, but just this once."
A few minutes later. She hugged me tightly, not wanting to let go of me.
"You promised not to lay a hand on me."
"Hehehe, I can not resist it anymore. I need to hug you tightly right now."
"So you just wanted someone to hug?"
"Yup, hehe, Yawn...."
In the end, we slept together while she hugged me so tightly. She hugged me so tightly that I almost suffocated while we were asleep.
In the morning, I woke up with a body that felt like it had been crushed by a boulder. I did not expect to feel this pain just because a girl hugged me for a whole night. How is she that strong, and how did she have a hard time pulling me last night? Is that even possible? I do not understand her strength. I started walking towards the kitchen while my body was aching and making a lot of sounds. When I arrived at the kitchen, I immediately started preparing for all of us to eat.
It was raining heavily. While I was cooking breakfast for all of us. When she woke up, she started walking slowly towards me. When she reached me while I was still cooking, she hugged me lightly but not as tight as last night. Maybe this time, she noticed that my body hurt and my back was drenched by her drool. It was kind of cute, but my back was so wet from her drool that I started sneezing because of it and also because of how cold the weather is.
After i cooked our breakfast, I changed my clothes and then came back to eat with Mariane, but before that, I first gave Choco and Flora their food. I sat down at the table after I had done all of that.
"So you have finally met her? What did you two talk about?"
"Oh, you mean Alicia? We did not talk that much except for the reason of how I got to this world and how I lost my memories."
"So you finally knew who summoned you to this world?"
"No, not yet. She only explained that I was someone's wish, and that is how I got into this world."
"I see."
She took a sip of her coffee with a serious look in her face while she was looking outside the window. It was raining so heavily that I could not clearly hear her words.
"So why did you not tell me?"
I slowly faced the window, too, looking at how strong the rain was, hearing the ribbit of the frogs, and seeing small snails slowly climbing the trees. I replied with...
"Because I do not want you to get into danger."
"STILL, THAT'S NOT A GOOD ENOUGH REASON TO NOT TELL ME."
"Sorry..."
I do not know what to say anymore because she might cry or be livid if I say the wrong words. I looked at her and noticed that a little bit of tears were pouring out of her eyes. Seconds later, she suddenly stood up and turned around as she slowly walked away.
"Just do not do something stupid again; you are really annoying, you know that."
I do not know what to do. I mean, I am sure that I have never had this kind of relationship with someone before. I do not know what to do right now. I kept thinking and thinking until this idea came to mind. I have never tried baking cookies and making ice cream yet.
Luckily, I always buy groceries when we go to the city. It is really weird that we lived so far from the city. I mean, why are we in the middle of the forest when the city is really, really far from here? Luckily, this world has magic because if it did not, we would be forced to walk, and it would take us at least four days to arrive.
I put the cookbook on the table, and I prepared the table with the ingredients for the ice cream and cookies. l mix every ingredient for the ice cream rapidly because we do not have a mixer, and it might take me hours just to finish everything. Luckily, my practices also toughened my body, so I would not easily get tired. When I finished mixing, I put the mixture in three containers, and after that, I started making the cookie dough. After finishing the dough that I made, I started baking it, not expecting to create a lot.
When I finished baking all of it, I cooled it off. Luckily, I finished before lunch because I did not want to let her know.
Half a day later. it was already nighttime, and I noticed she was still not asleep and was reading a book with a brown cover. Written on the cover is the title "Princess's secret love towards her butler." Perhaps that book is the reason she wants me to become like a butler. While looking at her, she noticed I was looking at her outside her room, standing. She looks creeped out by me.
"Uhh... why are you standing there looking at me and not even trying to talk?"
She closes her book. I did not know how to say it to her.
"I am closing the door, okay? You are creeping me out."
"Wait, wait, wait; I wanted to show you something."
"Then show it to me!, do not try to scare me or something."
"It is in the kitchen, please come with me."
"Well, if you insist."
I brought her to the kitchen and showed her the ice cream and cookies. While Flora and Choco were on the two chairs happily eating some of the cookies I gave them.
"Did you make all of this?"
"Yup,"
"Master, this is delicious!"
Choco said this while munching on the cookies.
"Really?"
Mariane tried the ice cream.
"Yeah, it tastes good. How did you make this?"
"Just some simple ingredients I found on the fridge."
"Teach me how to make this next time."
"Sure!"
