Zennie got up from the bed with a stretch and leaned against the doorframe groggily. Once she smelled the aroma wafting from the kitchen, she perked up and ran out with her bare feet.
As expected, the dining table that greeted her did not disappoint!
“Whoa, Cordelia, do you have magic?” She gasped. “You made so many things this early in the morning!”
Cordelia chuckled and considered it done as she placed the pot of chicken soup on the table.
“Dig in!” She passed the cutlery to Zennie.
“I don’t know what you like, so I made a bit of both sweet and savory. I hope you’re fine with the food!”
“How could I not be!?” Zennie was like a greedy little kitten as she munched on a pancake and held a bun in her hand, eating happily.
Breakfast like this was comforting, and it was as if Cordelia had magic. She made all these ordinary dishes taste so amazing that the chefs Zennie had at home could not compare to her.
It was no wonder that her brother wanted to stay with her. It seemed that a man’s appetite must be won over before his heart.
Zennie giggled upon thinking about it.
“What’s up?” Cordelia looked at her strangely. “You’re so happy having breakfast.”
“Nothing, nothing! I just think that Marcus must be so happy to have you! I feel so happy having the breakfast you made too!”
Cordelia blushed.
Zennie sounded exactly like Marcus. Why did these two like talking about feeling happy so much?
She beamed and poured Zennie some milk.
“Zennie, you’re staying at Regalia, right? I’ll send you back later.”
“It’s alright!” Zennie grinned. “Someone’s picking me up!”
“Who is it?”
Zennie tried to hide her smile, but it was easy to guess that the person picking her up must be a man considering how in love she looked.
