《Chapter 10 - Baking》×÷×+××÷×+××÷×+××÷×+××÷×+×
Sukuna thrashes a leather strap against my back for the seventh time and says "Learn your place".

I snap "You know you deserved to have your contracts burned", he chucks the leather strap at me and says "I told you to stop ruining the wedding".

I throw the strap aside on the floor of his study and ask "Why do you care so much about this wedding?"

He takes my chin and says happily "It will increase my buisness taking me to the top".

I raise my eyebrow and say unamused "So you thirst for power like many rich people".

He shoves me backwards with his hand and says standing up properly "It's just buisness, now you wouldn't want to get in the way of Daddy's work now, would you?"

He chuckles grabbing my waist holding me high in the air, I grip his wrists not liking how high I am off the ground.

He throws me onto my arse outside out his study door and says "Submissive girl".

Sukuna closes the door. I sit there knowing he only said that to get back at me for last time...

I explore the mansion since I never really got time to with all the fighting I picked with Sukuna.

I walk down a new corridor I've recently discovered and see a door of many in this place.

Curiously I twist the knob, however, it doesn't open, it feels like it's stuck.

I twist it again and throw my body against it, to my suprise the door swings open and I fall inside the old room.

I sneeze after accidently inhailing dust and pull myself off the carpet that has previously had moths chewing on it.

I spot a light switch and try to light up the dark room. As soon as my finger makes contact with the switch my finger ends up breaking the wall where the switch is.

I stare at it confused with a mix of shock, I think 'This room is so old it's falling apart...'

I close the door thinking I probably shouldn't be seen in this room, it could be an off limits thing.

I notice a musty old double bed in the corner of it, almost the same design as my room.

The sunlight is hidden behind an ugly thick blue curtain. I throw it open and instantly regret it, two moths fly in my face that were hiding in the folds of the curtain.

They fly around the room before attaching themselves to different parts of the room.

As I take in the whole vision of the room in sunlight, I see stacked boxes of junk and an open door for the closet holding old tattered women's clothes on the hangers.

I inspect the clothes carefully, they look expensive... Yet the moths have been chewing holes in them.

How old is this room?

My eye catches the sight of a frame behind the bed. I walk over and try to get a good look at the massive frame.

I take the corner of it and pull as hard as I can, the frame moves only a few inches but just enough for me to make out what the portrait inside it is.

A woman, I can't specifically see alot of her but I can see one quarter of her face.

Before I can think of anything else I hear a noise near the corridor.

I quickly close the curtain and leave the room.

I wash my hands in the sink of my bathroom and dry them. Once I open the door I see Itadori who was just about to knock.

I ask "What are you doing here?" He says brightly "I wanna play!"

I kneel down and ask "Did you ask your Dad?" He nods and makes agrivated weird noises as he stomps around, he says "He said no!"

I stand up and say "Well, let's go to your room then" I start walking, Itadori trips over his feet trying to catch up to me.

He pulls at my dress harshly and yelps "You're too fast!" I try to slow my pace, he yelps once more "Pick me up!"

I find this situation kind of funny, his raspy little voice scretching at me and his tiny little legs trying to catch up.

I pick him up.

As I am walking through the Mansion Itadori whines "I'm hungry".

I reply "Me too, it must be near lunch time".

Thankfully we are near the kitchen, I open the door and see a few cooks and chef's.

The head of the chef's spots me and says with a smile "Mistress! I can only guess you are here for delightful food?"

I nod and ask politely "If it's alright, both Itadori and I are starving, maybe I can make something".

The chef looks at me oddly and says "Maybe you are not aware Mistress, but it is my job to serve you, you shouldn't be cooking for yourself".

I say surprised "Oh... Okay, well maybe I could help? I used to make cookies and baked goods at the market I used to work at".

A man at the stove by the name of Liam asks "You were a baker?" I nod, he says "Come on Penny, let her have a go in the kitchen, she might suprise us".

Penny, who is the name of the head chef replies "Oh all right, Mistress come this way".

Liam takes Itadori off me and sits down at the table where they beat the dough which is covered in flour.

Penny gives me an apron off a hanger and I easily put it on.

×××

I am at the part where I rub the cookie dough into twenty miniature balls on the table.

The man holding Itadori watches me carefully and says "You are alot like someone I knew".

I ask "Do you mean the previous mothers that have been here?" He says astonished "I had no idea you knew about that".

I reply "Yeah well, I guess you are referring to one of them" Liam says "Yes I am. I am talking about Itadori's birth mother".
