The next day,
Adam didn't really have much to do so he went to the movies.
'It is shit,' Was Adam's thoughts since the movies weren't that good but it felt good because he went to the theatres after a long time.
"They still rip people off in the food section as always," Adam muttered as he walked down the streets of Roppongi looking at some clothing stores in the afternoon.
'This time should be about right,' Adam thought as he turned his direction towards Ai's house.
It would still take some time for Ai to come back but.
'The kids and Miyako should be at home,' Adam thought as he walked into the building.
He was already in front of Ai's house a few minutes later and rang the doorbell.
"You came a little early," Miyako said as soon as she saw Adam, not that she was complaining.
'I wonder what he thinks of my clothes,' Miyako was wearing a modest white top with lace around the collar and a red skirt that also accentuated her womanly curves, she also tied her hair in a bun with her bangs falling on her left side.
She wanted to give off a mature and homely vibe rather than her usual sexy one, she even minimized her makeup to just a red lipstick.
And there was another person who wasn't complaining.
"Uncle welcome~," It was Ruby who welcomed Adam with a smile.
"Oh, So cute," Adam picked up Rudy with a big smile.
"Hehe~," Ruby laughed and…
'Now I understand why most fathers are daughter-cons,' Adam nodded sagely as he had figured out a big mystery. Well, he did agree to it as well, having a cute daughter welcome one home, is really something you can only dream about.
'I should have a daughter as well,' Adam thought but then he realized the problem, 'Who is going to be the mother?'
This was where he was stuck…
'First I'll need to find a woman I want to marry, then court her, and then make her a mother, and what would happen if it was a boy?' But Adam had bigger problems than that, 'How do I find a woman who'll marry me?'
In the end, he got sad since…
'It will take a long time before I can get a daughter,' Adam really felt like if he didn't work on himself he could only dream of having a daughter of his own.
"Uncle~," Adam looked at Ruby as she called out to him sweetly.
"What happened Ruby?" Hearing her he forgot all about what he was thinking.
"I really liked the cake you made~, It was the tashtiest one," Ruby messed up her word on purpose because….
'Cute~!' Adam couldn't help but cry out in his mind as he looked at Ruby trying to describe the cake while trying to act like a normal 5-year-old.
'She really did a total 180,' Aqua deadpanned looking at Ruby from across the room.
"It was sho good that, Mama, Nii-chan, and I finished it all that night," Ruby said with a big smile and exaggerated movements.
"I am happy that you liked it," Adam was quite happy since there were very few people who had eaten his food aside from himself. So, getting compliments was always something he liked since they were rare moments.
Not to mention it made him feel like all of the time he spent perfecting the dishes wasn't wasted.
"I'll bring some more the next time I come," Adam patted Ruby's head as soon as she heard those words.
"Yahoooo! Uncle I love you~," Ruby hugged Adam with a big smile.
'Too Cute!' Adam controlled himself before his image crumbled.
'Keikaku Doori,' Ruby thought as she walked away with the biggest grin.
'Oi Oi, That look isn't suited for a 5-year-old's face,' Aqua couldn't help but comment in his head as he saw Ruby's face. But he couldn't focus it longer because…
"Did you like the cake as well Aqua?" Because Adam asked him a question, Ruby already said it but he felt like asking it anyway.
"Yes, It was delicious," Aqua nodded without even thinking since there was no need to think.
"I see, Do you have a flavor you like? I'll make that one next time," Adam asked and Aqua once again...
"Chocolate," Spoke without thinking.
"Oh, I am really good with that one, so look forward to it," Adam said with a smile, chocolate cake was the first cake he tried to make, so he had gotten really good with it by tweaking the recipe multiple times to find the perfect balance.
"Thank you," Aqua said as he bowed a little then left the living room, and as soon as he was out of sight.
"Yes!!" Aqua punched the air while letting out a subdued cheer, he was really happy.
Back in the living room,
"What is the cake thing you guys are talking about?" Miyako asked and Adam explained.
"Oh, so you trained as a patissier," Miyako was interested in the subject only because of Adam.
She didn't have a lot of sugar in her diet, cakes and such just wouldn't do if she had to maintain her looks to catch a rich and handsome young man.
"Yeah, I learned how to cook food as well," Adam said and Miyako nodded.
Miyako was so focused on listening to Adam's story about how he learned that she forgot to ask him about her dress, even when she spent hours getting ready today.
"Uncle let's watch TV," Ruby said while pointing at the TV as she sat down next to Adam.
"Yeah, sure thing," Adam smiled and started to watch whether it was cartoons or drama or some movie. He didn't care and just continued to watch it with Ruby, It was until…
"Aunt Miyako, I am hungry," Ruby turned to Miyako who was sitting nearby.
'Don't call me Aunt you brat!' Miyako wanted to explode when she heard Ruby call her an aunt but…
"I'll get you some snacks," Miyako stood up with a twitching face, and just then…
"You guys didn't have anything for lunch?" Adam asked and he soon got his answer.
"The kids said they weren't hungry," Miyako sighed as now Ruby was suddenly hungry all of a sudden.
'I didn't feel like eating anything since my mind was focused on the Cake,' Ruby thought but now that she had secured some cake she felt hungry.
"I see, I'll make you guys something to eat, it isn't good to just eat snacks all the time," Adam stood up and Ruby's eyes shined.
"What are you going to make Uncle?"
"How does Pancakes sound?" Adam asked the question while looking at Aqua and Ruby…
"Yes," He got immediate nods from the two kids.
'I want to try it as well, but too bad' Miyako thought but she couldn't, that was until…
"You want some Miyako?" Adam asked her and she nodded.
'Having it sometimes shouldn't be a problem,' Miyako was curious about Adam's cooking skills since he looked confident.
"Alright then, wait 10 minutes," Adam went straight into the kitchen leaving the three in the kitchen.
"Miyako," Ruby called out to Miyako while going towards her bedroom.
This made Miyako sigh as she felt a sense of Déjà vu.
"So, what happened between Uncle and you?" Ruby asked the question as soon as Miyako entered.
"…Nothing happened," Miyako said with a deadpan look.
"Ho, are you sure? Then why are you looking at Uncle so much? Your eyes weren't even leaving him in the living room," Ruby laughed and Miyako's eyes widened.
'Was I really doing that?' Miyako questioned as her face turned a little red and…
'Something happened,' Aqua thought looking at her reaction.
'It worked, hehe~!' Ruby laughed looking at Miyako's face.
"Where did everyone go?" But then they heard Adam's voice and Ruby bolted.
"I am coming Uncle~!" She was too excited to try out the Pancakes while…
"Good for you Miyako-san, I wish it works out for you," Aqua spoke to Miyako with a smile before he also went to the dining room.
"Seriously you kids..." Miyako sighed heavily as a determined expression appeared on her face, she couldn't mule on this when even the kids were cheering her on. It would be bad if she failed now.
"Miyako, where did you go?" Miyako left the room as she heard Adam calling out to her.
As soon as she stepped into the dining room she saw Aqua and Ruby eating the pancakes quickly with stars in their eyes.
"Eat slowly ok, it won't run away," Adam said to them but they weren't listening.
'That looks really good,' That was all Miyako could think while looking at the freshly made pancakes on the plate, The melting butter made it look really great.
It made her want to just stare at it for hours, it looked that good.
But Adam brought her out of her thoughts.
