My Pretty Sweetheart (Arianna)

Minnie must be waiting for something to be done in the kitchen. I removed my shoes and let out a sigh of relief as there was no one in sight.

Then, I entered the kitchen. Minnie heard the noise and couldn't help but be frightened. She said in shock, "Oh dear! You startled me, Arianna. How did you make no sound when you're walking?" Patting her chest to calm herself, she looked at me and asked, "You've just come home, aren't you? Are you hungry? Come and see what I've made." With that, she took the lid off the pot.

A strong aroma filled my nose. I couldn't help feeling hungry at the smell of it. I smiled and said, "Minnie, what did you make? It smells good!"

She replied with pride, "It's crucian carp soup. I added some special seasoning to it to enhance the fragrance. Go wait for it outside. It'll be done in a while. Then you can taste it."

Minnie then shooed me out of the kitchen. She had always felt that the kitchen was too dangerous for a pregnant lady to be in. S~ᴇaʀᴄh the FindNʘᴠᴇl.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
