Chapter 152 A Calm Morning
-----
After I washed my face a second time and decided to just forget about my weird imagination, I decided to see the hour. It was around 10 AM. It was quite late for breakfast, but its not like we had any hurry in the weekend. I decided to go take a peek at my daughter, as I found her sleeping leisurely. I felt the warmth in my heart increase by seeing her sleep so peacefully. This is one of the reasons why I work hard each week, so I can see her sleep so peacefully, so I can ensure her a good life… And I will keep working until I fall apart into pieces for her.
At the end, I sneaked into her room and gave her a kiss in the cheek before swiftly leaving. I didn't wanted to disturb her and she was in the right to sleep as late as she wanted in the weekend. Whenever the next week begins we'll move to my mother's house in the countryside, so she'll be a bit grumpy. But I said she could bring her friend, so she was probably going to bring Anna with her, with that, she was already quite happy.
I looked into the window of the kitchen for a bit, seeing the sunlight illuminating the streets and a few people walking leisurely, today was sure a peaceful morning… Without a doubt.
"I might as well make some breakfast."
I quickly decided to make something to eat. I was getting pretty hungry. I decided to make something less complicated, as I just took some eggs and pancake batter I had already pre-made and left in the freezer covered in transparent plastic foil. The smell of the pancakes was fragrant and delicious, as I had added some vanilla extract to them.
I also made some scrambled eggs with bacon because I was feeling like having an American Breakfast today. I usually don't eat as much as the traditional families of my neighboring country, but they sure know how to eat when they're hungry. The bacons smelled just fine, and the egg was quite good as well. The toasts were almost ready, and my Coffee with Milk was just done.
After getting everything over the table, I sat down and began enjoying things while watching TV leisurely. Nothing beats just relaxing for a bit after a big gaming session… Ah, I am doing a bunch of things in the game but I have yet to find my daughter… I think I can begin searching for her after I am done with the Fairy's Quest. I've been constantly stopped by quests showing up one after the other, so I really didn't had any time…
"Hmm, this is so good…" I sighed happily.
My country's most famous product, Maple Syrup, went deliciously well with the pancakes. I also didn't shy away from adding some berries and a tiny bit of whipped cream. The whole three pancakes I made for myself disappeared in less than five minutes. The bacon was so tasty as well, accompanied with the scrambled eggs and the toasts covered in butter. I was being a bit gluttonous today, but I planned to enjoy myself for a bit anyways.
After all, today I am going to the Gym!
Hehehe, that's right. This is why I am wearing my new gym clothes I got the other week. I've already subscribed in the gym and I can assist each weekend from 12 AM to 14 PM. I already told Elena about this, so she'll make her own breakfast like a grown-up girl, though I left her everything almost premade, I hope she can make her breakfast by herself.
"Phew, I think I ate a bit too much… Oh? Elena, good morning!"
I saw my daughter walking out of her room sleepily.
"Hi… I'm hungry."
"Alright, I'll make you breakfast before I leave!"
"Leave?"
"I'm going to the gym! Remember?"
"Oh… Y-Yeah, I remember."
"Hmmm…"
She clearly forgot about it, huh.
As I was making pancakes and she sat down to look at her phone, I began to repeat to her that I was going to the gym for like the sixth time.
"Elena, remember! I am going to the gym every weekend from 12 to 14!" I sighed.
"O-Oh, right…" She said.
"It is just two tiny hours." I said. "I know I have little time at my hands, and it was hard to decide the time because I didn't wanted to leave you alone all the weekend…"
"It's okay mom… I am glad you're… finding some time for you as well. You could had taken more time, I don't really mind."
"R-Really? Even if I make lunch later than usual?" I asked her.
"Hm. And if you don't make lunch in time I can always just bring delivery food. Like burger, sushi or pizza." She said.
"Eeehh… T-That's not the most healthiest food out there…" I said. Maybe traditional sushi is just raw fish, but the sushi sold by local places here are just rolls filled with rice and fried chicken or shrimp, sometimes fried over again. That's not healthy at all!
…Then again, I am thinking that while eating bacon with scrambled eggs and having three pancakes inside my stomach. I guess I am quite cocky myself.
"Hm, don't sweat it. Anna will come today by the by." She said.
"Really? At which hour?" I wondered.
"In a few hours, you'll see her here when she comes." She answered.
"A-Alright then! Here's your breakfast, my princess." I served my daughter a big feast with the same things I ate, as she looked at the food with eyes shining brightly.
She immediately began wolfing down the pancakes, drinking some coffee and then biting a toast with butter and eggs. She was enjoying herself quite a lot.
"You like mama's breakfast, honey?" I asked while smiling.
"Hm… I can't live without it." She said.
"Oooh? Is that so? Hehehe…" I couldn't help but giggle.
But then.
Ding! Ding!
My phone rang, it was already 12!
"Crap! It's already 12?! I'm going off then, take care!"
I kissed my daughter's forehead as I ran out of the house as fast as possible.
