A Novel's Beast World

49. Milk

First  of two updates for today May 23rd.

The next day I got up and stretched. I felt the dress hang loosely. It was starting to get baggy. I did shed off a few pounds. I'm losing my identity here. Brownies need to happen. Hell, brownie batter was fine too. If I can figure out desert, I'm going to need lots of eggs. I wanted honey, but didn't want anyone to get stung.

I channeled my inner MC and remembered that some guy on TV would smoke out bees and then remove their homes from weird places. Can we try that? Smoke them bitches out and steal their hard work? I hope so. I can't ask Qingqing about sugar now. Even if we make up, she's kinda pregnant and distracted.

What about cocoa? Would cocoa beans grow on trees here? And what the hell do they look like anyway? I've only seen it powdered. Brownies are so far away...

I dropped the top and started milking the girls. The babies are getting hungry. They look so cute waiting. But please don't watch me kids. This is weird as fuck. Do cows feel like this? Don't they make pumps for this? Not that I would use one, that seems freaky. Not my kink.

"Drew?" Fucking bitch! Of course someones got to walk in on me now. That's that obvious logic. I need a 'milking in session' sign or a 'do not enter' with skull and crossbones. Why does it have to be Winston? I could play it off if it was Harvey. Even Shuu is more manageable.

"Just let me finish." I was facing away at least, but I can't supply with an audience. The kids were already giving me a hard time. Why isn't tiger man answering?

"Do you want me to step out?" Please!

"Please!" I swear my face was going to burn off. And I'm supposed to have sex with this guy how?

"Okay." Good man. Did he leave? Good. Okay, boobs you can spit more out now.

I finally finished and the babies got their milk. I got a rag and wiped off some dribble. The rag was getting old and ratty. Guess we need to make new ones now. The work load increases again.

"Slow down guys." I watched the crazy kids choke on milk and tried to pat their backs. Is this how you burp a leopard? Damn, I need more lessons.

Once they finished I took the bowl to wash it. Three pairs of eyes stared at me like creeps. I wish they wouldn't do that. It's freaky.

"Good morning Drew." Harvey was the first to speak and the other two chimed in. "The rainy season has almost ended and we will need to prepare for cold season." Thanks Harvey, but I'm not the planner. "Is there anything you want to request? Winston and Shuu will be preparing a lot of prey for smoking and tanning hides."

"Hmm." To say or not say? I don't want to be a bitch, but I should try to live and stuff. "So, I can't live off just meat. I need other vitamins from vegetables and fruit. Is there any kind we can try to dry and preserve?" What does Qingqing find? Can't remember. Can I bring some of the garden plants inside to keep them alive?

"There are some fruit that we can dry, but they are limited this time of year. We will also look for more short-birds." Shuu replied enthusiastically.

"That's great, thanks Shuu." Cue tail wags. "So I can mostly eat what apes do, probably. You know a lot about apes, right Shuu?

"Yes!"

"Could you keep your eyes on the lookout for those things please?" Yay, I'm being nice. Level up.

"Of course. Is there anything else?"
