TWISTED FATE OF THE KNIGHT

Chapter Fifty-Five: Cooking Time (Part 1)

"Y-yes," Kerz's stuttered since he was surprised by his behavior. Renz's thoughts are focused on the statement in the newspaper where Avy was described suspiciously since it says that the woman is long hair when Avy is a guy so he was really curious about it.

Avy's Pov:

 I sneezed when I woke up as if someone is cursing me. Napatingin ako sa oras at mahaba pala ang tulog ko dahil alas dos na ng hapon, it means I missed my lunch kaya tumayo na ako habang humihikab pa. I went to the kitchen to cook my food since I don't want them to cook for another course dahil nakakahiya naman. They looked at me when I entered the kitchen with a surprise and questioning look why would I go to the kitchen but I just greeted them as I smile. May nakahulog pa ng kanyang hawak dahil sa pagkabigla na isa sa mga maids at cooks na naghahanda para sa pang hapunan. 

 "Don't mind me. Please continue what you are doing, just let me give me some space," I said at deritso sa mga lulutuin para mag tingin kong anu pwede kong maluto. 

 "S-sure," he said, one of the cooks since nakasunod lang ang tingin nila sa akin. 

 "Thank you," I said as I hum since I found something great ingredients.

 "Sir Avy, you can tell us what do you want. You don't have to cook," she said, one of the maids na naglakas magsabi sa akin na medyo na hihiya pang humarap sa akin. 

 "It's okay. I would appreciate it if you could help me to wash those ingredients for me if you are not busy," I said as I smiled at her, and she blushed as she looks down. 

 "It's my pleasure, Sir Avy," she said as she helps me while the other maids are gossiping that they want to help too but they have something to do. Well, I am going to cook fried pork since I saw some fresh pork and seasonings that I can use. I marinated the sliced pork with the seasoning as I set aside and I get the fruits that Riz washed a while ago. I asked her name a while ago since I didn't know how to call her and it is rude to call someone with 'hey or you'. 

 "What are doing with the pork?" Riz asked me as she was looking at the marinated pork that I set aside while she examining and curiosity can be seen in her face. 

 "You don't know that kind of cooking wherein you will marinate the pork to have more flavor and savory," I said as I slice the fruits into bite sizes. 

 " No, but why it is smell like this," she asked again since it is not really good but it will smell good if you cooked it. Nakalimutan kong hindi pa nila ang ganitong uri ng pagluluto na pagbababad ng karne sa soy at mga seasonings. 

 " Well, that's how it is," I said as I get the milk, sugar, and the big bowl where I can mix all the fruits which are the apples, pineapples, peaches, cherries, papayas, and bananas. 

 " Are you making dessert as well?" She said no'ng lumapit siya sa akin at nakatingin sa mga prutas na nilalagay ko sa malaking bowl. 

 "Yes, do you have any idea what desert am I doing?" I asked as I looked at her.

 " No, but I can tell that you are going to mixed all the fruits in there (she is looking at the bowl with the fruits) and that milk and sugar, Am I right? " She said as she giggled. 

 " You are right but you missed something since I will not directly put the milk and sugar as is," I said as I smirk at her and she pouted. I pats her head at sinabi kong 'okay lang yan' habang nakangiti sa kaniya at sinabi kong pag handa ng palayok kaya agad naman niyang ginawa. Mabuti nalang may nakita akong whisk kaya hiniram ko sa cook na saglit lang pero sinabi niyang 'take your time, sir Avy,' kaya agad kong ginamit sa gatas na nakuha ko hanggang medyo bumula konti as I mixed the sugar.
