Chapter 239 Scarlet sleeps out
Early in the morning, Scarlet's alarm on her terminal went off and she woke up feeling quite thirsty. She stretched her arms and yawned, thinking back on the activities of last night. She Mina and Lena had a few drinks and then Scarlet spontaneously decided to spend the night at Mina's.
It had been a very long time since she slept over at someone else's place, and in their bed. Mina was already awake, it seemed because she was alone in the bed.
The first thing she did was check her terminal for news on Justin, so, she dialed principal Stash, against every instinct that warned her not to do so. fre(e)webno(v)el
After three rings, the woman picked up, sounding very cheerful and excited to hear from Scarlet.
"Governor, good morning, I have been expecting your call. I have up since five o'clock in the morning because other worried mothers kept calling my phone to check on their children. Not just early in the morning by the way, some called me in the middle of the night because their children sleep walk or wet_"
"Principal Stash!!" she said loudly. "Justin, how is Justin?" Why was the woman so chatty and chirpy this early in the morning? Did she sleep on a rainbow or a in a candy factory?
"He is still sleeping; I did not want to wake the children up so early when they went to bed late because they had so much fun. Do you want to know what kind of games they played? We invented_"
"Nope, thank you for sharing information with me, have a nice day principal, goodbye." She hung up so fast, before the principal could say anything else. Dealing with the principal was like dodging landmines.
She looked around Mina's room, observing it for the first time. Everything from the curtains to the beddings was lilac colored. The potted dark purple viola which Mina had stolen from the castle was rotating on a round disc like flower stand in a corner next to the window.
On the wall were various pictures of Mina at different ages, in some, she was alone, some with family and others with friends. One picture, the largest which was in the midst of the room had been taken from right here on the blue star, in front of the castle. It was framed in a motion activated frame, courtesy of Carolyn and inspired by the moving images in Harry Potter. Normal people watched movies and applauded, her sister sought to bring to life any and all amazing gadgets from the movies, mythological or not. The motion activated frame created the illusion that the picture was moving for a maximum of ten seconds. It could recreate a total number of five poses in the ten seconds.
Even though Scarlet did not want to admit it, it was pretty cool.
She left the bed, cleaned her teeth, washed her face and then made her way out of Mina's bedroom with every intention of returning home to prepare breakfast for her baby. However, her planned simple escape did not go as she planned. For one, Mina's entire family was sitting downstairs in the living room, and it seemed, as if they were waiting for.
Two, not everyone was aware of her presence because captain Zorl came out of their kitchen in only his pajama bottoms.
"Oh," he said in surprise and then, he covered his chest with the packet of buns. "What are you doing here?"
Scarlet looked to the side and said, "You should cover up first."
"Aaaah brother," Mina stood up from where she was sitting and she glared at her brother, "Why don't you stop that habit of walking around half naked? You are embarrassing me in front of my friend."
Zorl glared at Mina and he walked quickly to his bedroom. As he walked, he wondered why and when the governor started visiting his house. In his opinion, this was not a good thing; someone in his position could not be seen spending too much time with people in power. He decided there and then, it was time to move out because his sister and the governor could be closer than he thought initially.
He sent a message to his assistant, "Find me a new place to stay as soon as possible."
"Sorry you had to see that, Mina did not tell us that you had graced our house with your presence governor, we are so happy to receive you." Mina's mother was the perfect picture of welcoming and pleasant.?Mina had said that they were commoners but her mother spoke like she had gone through some training in eloquence.
"Good morning governor, please stay as long as you want, make yourself comfortable." Professor Sham smiled, welcoming her to their home as eagerly as his wife was doing.
"Thank you, I have to leave however, I need to go and prepare breakfast for my son." She replied, eager to make her escape.
"Ah, I had made pancakes for you." Mina said.
"So that's why you made many." Her mother said.
"Sorry friend, my Justin's tummy comes first but if you can pack them, I will go with them and eat them from the palace." Scarlet did not want to disappoint Mina that looked overly eager for her to taste what she had cooked. 𝑓𝑟𝘦𝘦𝓌𝘦𝑏𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝓁.𝒸ℴ𝘮
"Wait here." Mina said and she ran to the kitchen, leaving behind Scarlet who was awkwardly facing her parents.
"So, it's a beautiful day." Scarlet said.
"Great day for a walk." Professor Sham answered.
"Yes, it's an excellent day for activities like snow fights and skiing." Mina's mother added.
Then, silence resumed, and all three parties peeped at the kitchen. Mina could not return quickly enough.
"Here," she returned running toward Scarlet at the same pace with which she had run to the kitchen. "They are simple pancakes with flour, sugar, eggs and milk, I hope you enjoy them."
"I will," Scarlet took the blue container from Mina and put it in her storage bracelet. "I will see you next time Mina."
Mina walked Scarlet to the door and the two women embraced, "Thank you for a great night out."
It had been a wonderful night; they had drunk some wine, engaged in friendly gossip about the latest movies and fashion. They talked about some of their plans for the following year, and laughed a lot. Scarlet felt wonderful because for one night, she did not have to be the responsible governor of an entire planet or the grim reaper who had many responsibilities but a young woman that could giggle silly and be herself.
"We should it again soon." Mina suggested.
"Definitely." Scarlet agreed.
"And not just when you are escaping your mother." Mina laughed.
Scarlet laughed as well.
