I continued finishing the last details of the kitchen while Leo and Rafael went to take a shower to clean off all the flour. As for me, when they left I quickly got wet in the river in my space and put on another pair of clothes.
The tartlets are in the oven and the dough is almost ready. I moved the spatula with my right hand using smooth and fluid movements allowing the dough to enter slowly with the bacon, at the same time a bottle of cream was next to me and I threw it she slowly while mixing, my movements were refined and done with high skill and feeling the smell of the food rising in the air as I remembered the previous climate and saw the flour being cleaned by one of the robots, I couldn't help but smile in one of my lives although different, it was a similar climate to today. While I was cooking, in a small daycare, several children "helped" like today, the difference was that those who helped me as an adult were a local sister and aunt.
That life was very calming and made me happy and relaxed, and a smile came to my face, Leo's presence in that life was also an interesting addition.
Regardless, the pasta was finally at the perfect point and I served it on 3 plates, with a larger quantity for Leo, after which I grated a light amount of parmesan cheese and a little basil to decorate.
"And voila." I looked contentedly at the dishes as I took off my apron and put it away in my space.
And at that moment I saw the two of them, coming down, Leo was wearing a looser shirt and shorts which highlights his leg muscles, his whole look also seemed calmer and more relaxed, like someone from the army and a tiger, his external appearance is very muscular in overall almost as big as a bear and although some didn't like the exaggeration, somehow it looked beautiful on him and this look gave both a side of savagery, but at the same time a side of laziness like a cat normally acts...so Pedro told me He said this was a side of the General...although not easily seen...since for most he only shows an indifferent and cold side as if it represented the ice of his ability.
And of course, besides him, a cute little boy with white hair with a slight shade of silver and purple eyes, wearing a cute outfit that impressively looked like a very cute white tiger pajamas, with ears and a fabric that looked soft, he looked very cute wearing this clothes… By the way, this is a tiger within a tiger.
At that thought I couldn't help but laugh a little.
And Rafael, when he saw me, smiled and came running towards me and jumping off Leo's arm easily, at a high speed...even without me seeing the note, his physique is definitely hight...and he definitely represents the children of this world like a tiger. They are quite terrifying.
"Brother, Brother!! What do you think of my clothes?" I returned to my thoughts when I saw the little boy jump into my arms and I picked him up.
I gave him a soft kiss on the forehead and responded with a smile.
"You look very beautiful, little tiger."
He was happy and seemed to remember something.
"Little brother. By the way, I wanted an apron like you and Uncle wore today, ummmm… I also wanted to wear something like a squirrel outfit to look like my brother…"
Hearing this I smiled and touched his hair with care and affection.
Leo also said something at that moment.
"I think a squirrel outfit is good."
I just ignored him and spoke to Rafael, which didn't make me hear his other murmur.
"Well…in the future I might buy or get squirrel pajamas for our tiger kids and squirrel pajamas for our tiger kids…sounds like a cool idea…" Which was probably for the best since I was likely to get slapped in his head.
"Well, if you want, I won't buy it for you, but I'll sew it myself."
In a life in the modern world I was a designer and model, so I have good notions of design and sewing, even more so when I was a royal butler for a princess and learned other types of sewing and other things.
"Seriously brother, you're going to do this yourself!! It's cool that brother knows how to do so many things.
"Good good, go sit down so we can have dinner." I patted him and put him down, and he ran to the table, I saw him running with a smile and continued talking to Leonardo.
"Help me carry the dishes."
I took two plates and left him to get the last one and the drinks.
He nodded, but came to my side and whispered with an apologetic tone.
"There's no need to force yourself to do this and leave you with extra work, I'll talk to him later."
I was slightly surprised by his speech, but I smiled reassuringly.
"Relax, sewing is fun. It's not work either." It's another hobby that I enjoy so I don't mind, I have a large quantity anyway.
He seemed worried, but decided not to say anything else and we went to eat.
After the delicious pasta, Leo went to get the desserts, they were still a little warm, but that was no problem for General Leopard with one of his nicknames being the ice tyrant.
He used his ice power to cool the desserts to a correct temperature, I watched with curiosity and was quite impressed, he has very precise control of his supernatural power and can use it in a very smooth and perfect way.
And soon the dessert was in front of me and using a fork I took a bite, the filling has a mild flavor with the sweetness at the right point and the lemon taste is refreshing and relaxing while the dough had the right point between crunchiness and softness. I looked at Leo and Rafael, their dough shouldn't be as done as mine, but it should be good and the filling is definitely on point.
"What did you think of everything?"
"Delicious brother!! The dessert and food were perfect!!!"
I smiled at this excited little tiger and spoke.
"Well, you helped me too, so you deserve congratulations, Rafa."
He looked shy, but he also lifted his chest showing courage and pride which I thought was cute.
And Leonardo also gave his feedback.
"Everything is wonderful, Squirrel. Thank you for cooking for us today."
"Clear. I had fun and ate well, thanks for dinner too."
I smiled telling the truth, I enjoyed spending time with this family of cats.
