Next day Waking up in the morning, I realized I wasn't able to do anything last night. Mom and I fell asleep pretty quickly. Well, considering that I had to skim through books the entire afternoon, my eyes really were quite heavy by then. I will compensate mom with giving her more whenever i have
time.
Mom had wake up before me and was already out of bed, as she was getting ready for her trip to the capital. When I finally went downstairs, I saw Mom in what seems to be her formal attire. She has a white coat hanging on her shoulders, a dark-blue military blazer jacket with a mini pencil skirt, and thigh-high boots. Her outfit combined with her long beautiful silver hair and cyan eyes, gave off the impression of a much colder, stoic impression, compared to the Mom I know and usually see.
It was quite the different look from her usual comfortable sundresses. She always had this motherly, homely vibes coming from her, but to think that a change in outfit could do so much to change the impression she gives.
"Oh, Good Morning Lith. Didn't know you're up already." Mom said
"Wow Mom, you look different." I honestly said
"Fufu~ You never saw Mom in this outfit before, right? This is what I wore when I was working" She lightly smiled
"Really? What was your job?" I asked curiously
"Secret~ I'll tell you next time~" She giggled as she told me
I thought that Mom would take her bow with her but instead, she took out a dusty box before opening it. She then pulled out a one-handed sword, with beautiful ornaments before hanging it on her waist. Why do I feel that Linia and Luna aren't the only one involved in the magic knight in our family?
'now that i think about it she never tell me anything about her work but she get her pension every month and this outfit look like Magic knight so maybe she was one and now retired because she want to take care of us. '
I won't take long okay? I'll come back in 4 days, or a week at worst. Stay safe, you and your sister." Mom said as she kissed me on the lips
"Un." I nodded before giving her a goodbye hug
"There, there, you're making me not want to leave, when you act like that." Mom said as she rustled my hair
"Oh? No way~ Mom, where did you get that?" I heard Linia 's voice in shock, as she seemed to have woken up as well
"I'll tell you next time okay~ Come give Mom a hug" Mom said, once again enjoying our reactions.Linia gave mom a hug.
Luna usually didn't like to get all touchy, but seeing that Mom was leaving she went and joined our little family hug, until Mom finally went out.
"Goodbye, Mom!" I said while waving
"Stay Safe Mom." Luna and Linia together said lightly.When Mom was no longer visible,
"Wait, who'll cook for us now?" Luna asked worriedly as she also looked at me and Linia
"Uhhhh… We can try, I guess?" I said as I also didn't have a clue on how to cook
can't believe such a stupid thing passed over our entire family's head. Mom left forgetting that none of us could cook a dish, now what are we gonna do? we can try how to cook or go to aunt Freya's house and tell her to cook for us.
"Should we just eat fruits? I think I can survive on apples for atleast a week" Sis said
"Let's try that if we really can't cook anything" I said
======After some time ============
"This ain't working" Luna said as we looked at our creation
It was now noon and in this world there are no such thing as Google the recipe, tthis world doesn't even have phone and i am talking about google.We don't even have a cookbook. We just cook based on what we remember Mom doing, which we don't remember a lot of. We tried what 'seemed' to be the easiest, which is vegetable pilaf.
I knew how to cook rice, a little bit. So once that was done, we started. Even us knows that you add the onions first, but after that it's all up to fate. Mom would probably scold us for 'wasting' food, but we tried since we don't wanna live off fruits for an entire week.
"But we added oil, why is it sticking to the pan so much?"Linia said
"Maybe bean soup is easier?" Luna said, as we stared at the burnt rice on the pan.
"Hmm, should I ask Teacher to help? She can cook really well" I suggested, though I kind of know that both of them is not that fond of Aerin and Amelia.
"No we will learn something before evening..."
"Yes Luna is right we should learn how to be independent ."Linia suddenly started talking about independent.
"Anyway, let's just eat bread for now. I'll ask my friends a little bit on how to cook" she added, before leaving with the leftover bread from yesterday on her mouth
Wait, both Sis doesn't have any friends. she probably is talking about the guards, do those guys know how to cook at all? Maybe some of them are married and she'll ask their wives instead. Tomorrow, I'll just tell Aerin and Amelia that I won't be going to their place for a week, since I will be staying at home.
"Haaa… Now what should I do?" I sighed, as I thought of what I would be doing
" We can ask our neighbor aunt Freya she can teach us how to cook ."
"hmm that's good idea Lith let's go now "Linia said and Luna nodded
When we entered Aunt Freya's house we show that she was just going to start cooking.
"what are you three siblings doing here? "
"Our mom went to capital and we are alone for entire week and non of us three know how to cook so can you teach us how to cook "l said
"Oh so you just remember that you have beautiful and kind neighbor i thought you siblings forget about me.Lucia left? To think that she'd forget that her own children can't even cook."
"I can just cook for three of you, you know? You can just pick it up every morning" Freya suggested
"Uhm thanks… But I'd also love to learn ourself" said Luna
I should've known this earlier. Cooking skills is essential especially if I ever decide to go out for extended periods. Not to mention, I always won't have someone cooking for me. I need to be pretty self-sufficient, if I ever plan on taking care of myself and my family.
Luna and Linia had same thought.
"I should've expected that reply from you,
"Alright i will teach you how to cook i was just going to prepare dinner. "
"Lith what about you you are very interested knowing more about plants i thought atlest you knew how to cook. "
" I only want to learn more about plants because of my ability cell master " i said
And then she started making dinner and tell us what should we do and what mistakes we should not make when making food each one of us learned one dish of course different dish we prepared was not delicious or very testy but atlest it was edible it was better than when we tried to cook ourself.
After dinner was ready we wash our hand and sit on dining table and started eating i have to say she is very good cook though not as good as Mom after all mom is on whole another level when it comes to making delicious and testy food .
When we were eating i noticed that aunt Freya was wearing beautiful red dress her bright purple hair was tied bun her amethyst eyes look very beautiful maybe if possible i should also add her in my target list.
After eating dinner we came home and i started thinking how i can make any progress with both sisters.
I'm starting to grow up and I can't keep pretending to be an innocent kid anymore. Though sisters are still very clueless about adult matters, tthey will probably learn more about it once they enters Magic School. So I thought how do kids learn about sex anyway. In this age most people probably learn it through hearing adults talk about it or having their parents give them 'the talk'. But Mom and everyone in the village never does it, which is why both Sis are so clueless about it in the first place. It doesn't help that they doesn't talk to other people that much as well.
I thought back to how I actually learned about it, and remembered porn. Though there isn't any porn videos here yet, maybe stuff like erotic literature already exists. I don't think they would be so easily available though, that a kid would just be able to find one in the library. Maybe I'll just write my own erotica instead, and have it so that me and both Sis could 'study' and learn it together. After all, it's better for horny teenagers to learn about sex with other horny teenagers. And though both Sis are in their twenties, we're elves anyway so we're still considered youngsters.
"How do I write one though?" I said to myself, thinking back to the erotica
Not only do I have to make sure it's not obvious that it is me who wrote it. I have to make it seem like a 'real' book, with a book cover and all. I went up to our bedroom, and looked at my journal where the notes regarding plant and nature magic are written. I also took note of how much ink and vellum I still have.
"I'd need to go get some more" I concluded, as I thought of how I should write my novel.
"wait a minute instead of writing novel i can just draw comic hmm look like i have to use my excellent drawing talent and best cultured comic for my sisters.
