Chapter 71: Breakfast in bed for you (III).
Kein's POV
In the presence of a naked Rose, whose only savior was the blanket that I covered her up with- I was outside with Vivienne teaching her how to count for now we were in the thirties number.
I was impressed by how easy she was able to understand and adapt to counting, knowing the rules of basic numbers.
Every number in order to not get lost, I told her to put a finger up to remember where she was.
"Thirty-one..."
She hesitantly raises her thumb looking at me for confirmation that she was doing nothing wrong.
"Thirty-two! Um... Thirty-three?" (Vivienne) stops counting, looking at me with a little uncertainty.
"Thirty-three is correct." I gave her a warm smile, reaching to pat for her blonde hair that was really something like mine. "Continue counting you're doing great on this, back when I was around your age I was eating dirt not learning my numbers."
Little goblin professor, I was a little province girl who had nothing much but sticks and stones for toys. Using our imagination we hold up a stick and use it as a fine blade imitating samurai slashing swords on our playtime and for stones-
We just skipped them on a nearby river when we had the chance. Catch frogs, use spiders for something to battle with each other and then place bets on who'll be the winner.
It was rather a simple life for us in the province but for my years as a kid to the countryside something like that would be considered normal, but in 2045 that's cavemen toys for all the places I've traveled.
Seeing how advanced they are back in my old world it's mind-blowing.
"Forty!"
Well, well Vivienne is really happy counting and that makes me happy. "Would you look at that-! Nice job reaching forty."
We were nearing the sixty seconds mark before we heard the door opening a bit, revealing Rose's head that was now covered with the same old red shawl from yesterday. ƒ𝗿e𝘦𝚠𝗲𝚋n𝚘ν𝙚𝗹.𝑐o𝙢
"Oh-! You two can stop counting now- the food is getting cold!"
Vivienne excitedly comes up to her 'Mommy' leaving me behind to wonder if that was the only shawl she ever wears. "Mommy! Food?" (Vivienne) asks excitedly, more concerned about the food that she forgot about her whole number counting activity.
"It seems Mama over here made something really good and healthy for your little tummy." (Rose) opens the door to let us both in, she takes in the little girl's hands in hers while I watch following behind them feeling all warm.
We all sat on the sofa where she was doing the little pose before, since the paint is half done, the curves and everything else wasn't mostly detailed so I didn't worry much about Vivienne stumbling upon it.
She already has her hands being so occupied by taking one of the egg benedicts and then munching on it. "Mmm! Swo ywummy!" (Vivienne) had her little face a little puffy with all that food in her mouth that it reminded me of how a hamster would eat.
"Oh Vivienne you look so cute!" (Rose) who was not eating was just gushing on the little girl stuffing her face in.
I joined her, taking one on both of my hands but I offered the other one to the lovely princess beside me. Rose had her eyes turning to me softly taking the food.
"Thank you-" but she stops her sentence after considering something.
"Umm..." (Rose) continued and looked at her food. "Thank you, Kein."
I nodded, feeling a bit thankful that she would remember my request to call me by my real name in private places when it's just the two of us alone.
We're not alone so she can't really call me by my personal name. If Vivienne hears my real name it might get stuck to her and she would start calling me by that name. "You're ever so welcome, princess." 𝘧r𝘦𝗲w𝘦𝚋𝐧o𝘷𝘦𝙡.co𝑚
I told her to take a bite of the delicious vegetarian eggs benedict that was still a bit warm to the taste, the poached egg was just so good and juicy savory- "I did good for someone who hasn't been in the kitchen for a while."
"This is a vegetarian eggs benedict right?" (Rose) asks and I nod. I would remember for all the years we were together that by the church's order she wasn't allowed any meat. Our first date regarding the matter of food was awkward- I can't believe I gave her a meat skewer that day.
"Mm. It's safe for you to eat, even if I'm your knight I'm not supposed to do this but you know I wouldn't mind adding the title of princess' private chef on my resume." It would certainly make me look fairly accomplished. After all what kind of job experience would that be, a personal knight mixed as a personal chef for her.
If I present this at certain companies back on earth I'll get rejected on the spot though.
"What do you say?" I nudged her sides teasingly expecting her to nudge me back but I was surprised to see her uncovering the bottom part of her shawl revealing those pink colored lips I was kissing all night yesterday.
Chu!
"If I could have it, I would love for you to cook for me everyday." (Rose) giggles after taking a quick kiss on my cheek giving a little happy grin before taking a bite of the eggs benedict quickly finishing it before covering her face back with the red shawl.
"Remind me to not only cook for you everyday but also buy you a new shawl." I told her, taking a look at the old worn out silk. My hands reached out to hold her shawl to inspect it and frowned, for a princess to wear such a thing…
How many years has she been wearing this? Jeez... she gives no mercy to this thing.
I could feel Rose's expression shifting into a pout under that red shawl that was hiding the expression on her face. "But this is a really special shawl. You told me you liked the color red and you even complimented me when you first saw me in it."
"It holds a place in my heart, Kein."
She gave the shawl a little pat on the shoulder while I sighed. "What if I picked the shawl out for you, would that make you happy and take it? I feel a little bad at your old shawl; it looks really worn out."
Rose hears my offer to personally buy her a new shawl and she considers it. "Well the lovely knight is offering such a lovely gift who am I to refuse? You certainly know how to make a girl feel special."
"And you're the only girl I'll be loving."
The shawl, I wanted it to be something of significance to us both. The red color will stay but seeing how plain red her old shawl is- I would have some golden trimmed designs of roses on the edges to give it some flare.
I know Veronica is a bit busy but surely a shawl in her packed orders- paid in a rush- she would understand that it'll be in the name of love. I could already see her smiling in my direction, suffering from success and a long line of orders. I hope she's getting the rest she needs though.
"I'll go pay Veronica another visit and give her my thanks." I tell Rose who widens her eyes at my plan and she clings to my arm.
"I-I also want to see Veronica." (Rose) pulls my sleeves, telling me that she wanted to see Veronica but from all the time she used up to spend it with me there would be no time. "I want to say my thanks for lending me that book."
She made me remember the lewd book of all the techniques and positions that she was able to use on me last night and oh jeez-!
"But you need to go back to the palace by lunch, your clone would've disappeared by now and everyone will be in a fuss trying to find you. Imagine if your sister was so worried and mad that you didn't come home last night-"
"Princess Cecilia won't forgive me if I don't escort you back first." I tell her trying to make her understand that the first princess is scary as hell and I don't want to get her on my bad side.
"Must I really go back? You know I would rather spend my time here all day being with my beloved and daughter." (Rose) clings onto me tighter, I could feel that she was using her body to her advantage because her breasts were pressed against mine... slowly she moved up and down making me feel a bit weird. "Rose... you know it has to be final."
"We can bond for a few more hours before we leave, Vivienne especially, she's going to miss you when you go back to the palace." I told her to be reasonable with my words, so she decided to listen for once and sat beside Vivienne who had crumbs all over her face.
"Hmm? Nom nom." (Vivienne) was looking like a real mess with that. Even her hands were full of crumbs, perhaps if it was given the crawling ants would've surrounded her for being such an easy target.
"Oh you have so many crumbs... come on let's get that out now shall we?" (Rose) being the good mom that she is. She takes a handkerchief out of her [Storage Ring] and starts wiping all of the crumb out of the little girl's face.
