Chapter 38 - Episode 38: Peaceful and Fun Sundays.

 

We used the entire Saturday to prepare all of our ingredients for our stall product, we used an entire Mutant Deer for this week Burger patties. As always, for the bread we just buy them online, I just bought about a container worth of freshly made sourdough from about a hundred bakery. As for the mineral waters, all we had to do, is rebottled the purified water from our tap, so on that side were are ready. So, for Sunday we are all free to rest up and do whatever we want, Natasha had fallen in love with the taste of chicken, after she tasted the awesome taste of fried chicken wings, last night.

 

Since today we did not have anything going on, I slept in, and now I just recently get out of the shower, and walked into our living room. Natasha was in the kitchen, cooking something, I supposed, as she got her Notepad on the counter, with a Metube video playing out loud.

 

"What are you cooking for today, Nat?".

 

"I am cooking a chicken curry…we can have that for our lunch…Honey…you've tasted a chicken before last night, right?". (Natasha)

 

"Yes, I do …why?".

 

"Is it always tasted that good?". (Natasha)

 

"Well…it is always tasted good…but the one that you cooked last night…just tasted even better…".

 

I am a self-proclaimed chicken expert, and to be truly honest, the Fried Mutated Chicken that Natasha cooked last night, just tasted above and beyond the normal fried chicken that I normally ate. she just simply fries them with a seasoned batter, like any fried chicken that were sold and fried back on earth. This is a Mutated chicken, I have a low expectation of it, but instead, it tasted divine, the meat was succulent and juicy, with each bite it was as if the meat were dancing on my tongue and mouth. The flavored batter just enhances the crispiness and crunchiness of the chicken skin, it was a massive explosive of flavors, I am rating Mutated Chicken at 10/10 stars.

 

"Really?". (Natasha)

 

"Yeah, perhaps…it tasted even better because you were the one that were cooking it, Nat..".

 

"Oh, you~ …". (Natasha)

 

Natasha was pleased and blushed to be complimented by me, once in a while, a lip service is not something that hard to do. Still, tasting the Mutated Chicken, I understand why the rich folks in this world coveted the Mutated Chicken so much, it was very delicious and tasty as it is, and it doesn't take much to cook it to taste good, so its coveted status does make sense.

 

Knowing how delicious the chicken was, I feel even more greedy to raised them on my own, I know that I can successfully farm the chickens if I just do it. Those Mutated Chicken probably doesn't need too much maintenance or care, they survive a nuclear holocaust and a meteor fall, If I just throw feeds at them, all of them would grows up just fine.

"Oh~ people really do think I am an enthusiastic post-apocalyptic cosplayer…. Hehehe~".

 

I just recently created my new Stargram account, it was a social media site with a lot of users using it, about a 4 billion active users. Just for fun and also to put a color on my new life, I sometimes post some photos of my current life, the photos of ruined Jouston City, the wasteland, myself, Natasha and even Alfred, literally anything that I want. Recently, I just hit 500 followers, and those that were following my accounts, all of them were convinced that I'm just a god-like 3D artist, that are very dedicated and skillful at my work.

 

"Nat, our fan really loved the Mutated Chicken picture I posted last night…".

 

I called Natasha over, and let her sees the comment sections of our recently posted picture.

 

"Really?... Let me see~…. Oh…they really do… but, why are they saying that it was a 'very realistic rendering' so much? ...What is a 'rendering'?". (Natasha)

 

"It was like a fabricated image...".

 

"That Mutated Chicken is real though~ …. The folks over there really are weird…". (Natasha)

 

She handed me my smartphone back and went back to the kitchen, resuming her cooking once again. By the way, I do tell her about myself truthfully, like who am I really are, and her reactions, are simple, she just asked am I still her husband, to that I reply yes. And that was about it, in her words, she said that, it doesn't matter what is going on, as long as she is my wife and I am her husband, she believed that the old me, and the me now, are one and the same. I did not die, but rather the me now, finally returns to my rightful place, and she glad and happy that I am now back into my original body.

 

Natasha is not educated, I am the one that teaches her how to read and do a lot of things, like mastering the Notepad that she owned now. But Natasha is not stupid, she is a wise person with a plenty of wasteland knowledge, she knew that the internet is not coming from this world at all, but, from my old world. This does not shock her at all, her reaction was more casual, she said 'oh really? It's a good thing, right? Well at least we are not going to be bored' and that is it, and we moved on, and this happened last night, I supposed the tasty fried chicken and beer let me opened up to her.

 

Thanks to her, I no longer feel that I had to walk on an eggshell when I just do something magical. That is why I can just openly have fun with her, she doesn't really like social media, to her, she just enjoyed watching videos on Metube, cooking shows is her favorites, she watched them all the time and always talked to me about it, thanks to this our family table conversation is not so depressing.

Seeing and interacting with all of these people always makes my day. Sharing a little bit of my journey, and none of them ever thought that all those pictures were real, made me looked like a hardcore artist that are too into the post-apocalyptic world. every day, they were waiting for any updates from me eagerly. At some point, I probably should announce that I am a post-apocalyptic hardcore larper, that should be fun too, and perhaps some times I maybe can do that sort of Stargram post where I just sat on a mountain of gold bar, that probably will get me a lot of likes.

 

But, one thing is confirmed though, I am quite attractive here, about 45% of my followers are all female, the rest were all fellow hardcore hobbyist. And these hardcore hobbyists, a lot of them were the kind of folks that have money and profession to be able to enjoy their hobby to the fullest, like this guy Steampunk_train, this guy is an owner of a deli, and he is actually sharing his butchering techniques with me, thanks to his comment, both me and Natasha got a lot of insight to properly cut the chicken to preserved the meat even better. I am quite good at butchering chicken, but not an expert, so there will be a gap in my skills and knowledge, so getting feedback from a real expert really do make a big difference.
