"Get a whiff of that," Rosalie spoke up. "Here comes the humans." Verdi's opera blasted as Bella, Edward, Jasper, and I entered to find the kitchen in full swing. Sebastian and Angel were behind us Carlisle, Emmett, Rosalie, and another woman prepare elaborate platters of Italian pasta and antipasti.
The woman rolls out pizza dough and fans tomatoes around it in an instant. Rosalie held a bowl as Emmett cut up a salad, disinterested. The woman saw Bella and me and stopped, emanating maternal warmth. Her heart-shaped face and billows of hair are reminiscent of the silent-movie era.
"Bella, Antoinette, we're making Italiano for you two," she spoke up. "This is Esme, our mother for all intents and purposes," Edward introduced us. "Bon giorno?" Bella asked in Italian. "Molto bene!" Esme spoke back, smiling. I smiled at her "You've given us an excuse to use the kitchen for the first time,"
Carlisle told us as he hit pause for something. I saw brand new Williams-Sonoma cookware boxes in the corner as they were watching an Italian cooking show on TV. Esme greets Angel and Sebastian with a treat and pets. Emmett waved the knife in his hand. "Better watch that knife, Emmett," I greeted him.
"I hope you're hungry," Esme asked. "I'll get some," I smiled. "Oh, absolutely-," Bella started to say. "She already ate," Edward spoke for Bella as she shot him a look, but something shattered. Rosalie has broken the salad bowl and now leaned against the wall.
I looked down at my oxygen tank as it was beeping. Everyone gave me a slight concern look, Rosalie and Jasper with the most. I took a deep breath as it stopped. I gave everyone an 'I'm okay' look. Rosalie looked at Bella. "Perfect," Rosalie sighed.
"I just assumed -- because you don't eat, you know...," Bella told her. "Of course. That was very considerate of you," Esme smiled. "Ignore her. I do," Edward told her. I rolled my eyes at him. "Yes, let's keep pretending this isn't dangerous for all of us," Rosalie glared at Bella.
"I would never, ever tell anyone," Bella told her. "Neither would Kitty," 'not that I'll live for that much longer I saw Edward give me a sad yet concerned look at my thoughts. "They know that," Carlisle added. "The problem now is that you four have gone public now, so......," Emmett added.
