"Ate Peachy? Where's my cupcake?" Scarlet asked as I summoned myself in her room, she's watching superbook. I closed the door and sat at the bean bag located beside her bed.

I smiled, she do really remembered her recommendation. "Wait princess, I already ordered 4pcs of cupcake from YumPanda." She started hopping in her scarlet bed, "Scarlet, sit down, you might fall." Yeah, I don't want her to be confined at a hospital because of her cleverness.

"Yes! I'll eat four cupcakes!" I turned my gaze to her as she giggled. "No, princess, you are going to eat two pieces just what I've told you in the morning, right?" She pouted as she hugged her pillow. "I thought you were giving me four pa naman." Then she goes back watching superbook.

I chuckled softly, gazing towards the television. The story was about the story of Elijah and the 450 prophets of Baal.

Elijah was against King Ahab after he knew that King Ahab built temples and altars to the false god Baal.

"I am the servant of the living Lord, the God of Israel, and I swear in his name that it won't rain except at my word!" Elijah, holding a wooden rod in his hands while exclaiming loudly above the altar that King Ahab had made.

"There won't be even any dew on the ground," he continued, facing the King and Jezebel in a close distance.

Jezebel's face became furious, "I don't need your God prophet," she said while pointing her finger toward Elijah's face.

Elijah suddenly turned his back against Jezebel, "Do you really think him a match for Baal? The God of weather?" Jezebel vociferate.

I gaze at my phone when as it vibrated, the delivery was now heading to the place, and few more minutes, it arrived. "Scarlet, the cupcake is here, wait for me." She nodded then she goes back again on watching.

I go downstairs and opened the gate, I headed outside to meet the driver. "Hello ma'am, ikaw po ba si Peach Lopez?" he questioned. "Oo," I confirmed.

He opened the box behind his motorcycle and he handed me the plastic bag with a logo of an app YumPanda, I stretched to him the money. He unzip his shoulder bag and changed me, I smiled as I received it. I counted it. "Thankyou," I said. "Thank you pud ma'am." Then he started to drive away from the house.

I went inside, I locked the gate. I fetched water in the refrigerator and I started to walk towards the room of scarlet. I knocked first before I opened the door.

"Yay! Cupcake, cupcake, cupcake!" she squealed as she hopped off the bed and went nearer. I place the water at her mini table before the tv as I placed the plastic bag with it.

I got the box, Scarlet's face showed upon as I opened the box gently. She smiled happily, "Here ya go princess." Her face was delighted as she received it.

"Don't eat it on the bed," I informed her, and she nodded as a reply, happiness took over her face as she lick the icing. I sat at the bean bag and started to eat, and we continued watching.

Eventually, the next scene is where Elijah had summoned all the people on mount Carmel for a challenge. King Ahab, together with Baal's 450 prophet. Everyone's attention were on them, it's like 1 versus 450. Knowing that he is the only Lord's prophet of the Lord who is left after Jezebel ordered to kill all the Lord's prophet.

"Bring us two bulls." King Ahab and the head Baal prophet of the other 449 prophets laughed towards Elijah, they thought he's making a good joke. "Baals prophet can take one of them. Then they can put the meat on the wood, without lighting a fire. I will do the same things with the other bull, and I won't light a fire under it either. Then you call the name of your gods, and I will pray to the Lord. The god who answers by setting fire to the wood, is the true God!" The crowd agrees.
