Chapter 31

Second PoV

After making a bunch of meals for your friend and his children that he denies the fact that he cared for, you finally decided to go home.

As much as you wanted to stay and play around, you didn't want to bother them too much and you started feeling like you were a burden and didn't want to overstay your welcome.

So you cleaned the guest room that you've been staying in and helped around chores.

Pentious has been busy building his machine in his workshop for days so as a gift of thanks for letting you crash over for a few days, you wove a cotton blanket by summoning cottons and spinning it into a thick thread using your vines and a little bit of your magic to make it go faster.

After you weaved a full giant and soft blanket, you made it softer by making it puffy with a pet brush you made with wood and petrified branches as the brush teeth.

You hugged the fluffy blanket, remembering your own back in the tree house that Iris prolly hogged these days you were gone since both of you loved making nests of fluff and comfort.

You then neatly folded the white blanket and now prepared for the next gift as you set the first one on his king sized bed.

You came up short with ideas so you just made a yellow rose instead and placed it on top of the folded giant blanket and started on a small note.

You placed it down under the rose on top of the blanket, satisfied with your little gift.

And with that, you floated out of the room and bid your goodbyes to Sunny and Softie and going out of the tunnel, towards home.

'Yeah.. home..' you thought, feeling somewhat bitter.

Sir Pentious' PoV

I yawned as I quietly slithered my way towards my chambers after tinkering on my workshop all day and its currently 6am.

I felt odd though as it suddenly feels as if the whole mansion went quiet even though there's eggbois here and there that's taking shifts in their duties.

I shrugged it off since I'm too tired to even think about it.

I opened the door to my room as my tongue flicked out, smelling the familiar lingering scent of the flowery woman that made my house a vacation home and putting flowers in every vase she can find.

I sighed as my mood lifted up with the familiar scent that changed the one I've been dealing with which were the scent of oil, iron, and grease and the old musty scent of the workshop room itself.

I first went into the shower and cleaned off the grime and sweat off my body which felt good and refreshing.

After I dried myself and put on my nightwear, I realized that there was something on my bed that I missed earlier.

A yellow rose on top of a note which I took and read.

'Hey Pen!

I think it's about time I take my leave, I've been waaaay too productive here and eh idk how to feel about that,

thanks for letting me stay tho! So I made you this blanket myself! Hope you like it~ :)

-your pal, the G.D (Y/n)'

I turned my head towards the blanket that's sitting on top of my bed.

I feel flattered at the thought of receiving a gift from her, yet my heart sank at the thought of her not being in the mansion anymore.

'No wonder it felt quiet today.' I thought.

I sighed and took the blanket which to my surprise is extremely soft and big, I didn't waste anymore time wrapping myself with it and instantly falling asleep the moment my head hit the pillow.
