The GALAX(Y)IES - Cosmos Universe

My Happiness !!

Chapter - 17

The next day, he started to teach her about reflexes and to use powers when time comes. He teaches her, throws things randomly towards her, sometimes she catches it, sometimes avoids it and if she was going to hit then he would save her. Day by day, her reflexes got quick and now the time come to check if she is ready or not. Dragon told her that he will use his powers this time instead of objects and all she has to do is protect herself. He used his power and attacked her but despite protecting she was just hurting herself as she couldn't understand where he attacked. It was fast for her and in the end, she failed. Dragon asked her if she was okay. She nodded but was unsatisfied with her performance and told him that maybe she needs more practice.

"It's okay. Take your time as under my guidance it is difficult to be perfect ", replied Dragon with a lower pitch. She thought that she needed to learn it quickly because her single mistake can take his confidence down. She started practising again and one night after she got tired and hungry, she went to the kitchen secretly as everyone was sleeping and she didn't want to make them awake but suddenly she heard some noise coming from the kitchen, she looked inside and was surprised to see Dragon cooking. It was the first time she saw him happy and enjoying something. It looks like he was dancing with the ingredients. She didn't want to disturb him so she was leaving but suddenly knocked a vase and he used his power to attack but she quickly encountered it with her moves.

"Did you see I just stopped your attack?", Flora said with excitement.

"What are you doing here in the middle of the night?", he asked and suddenly her stomach growled. She got embarrassed and told him that she got hungry after practising. He smiled and told her that she came on time as he cooked some extra.

He told her to sit while he served her, she had a bite and was amazed by the taste of food.

"I will be honest this is the best thing I ate in this universe", said Flora while eating as she was already hungry and the food was like the icing on the cake for her.

"Tell me something which I don't know", claimed Dragon with a proud face.

"Woah woah woah!, someone is getting narcissist?", teased Flora.

Dragon looked at her and teased her that she had only eaten food from Bright Planet, Shadow Planet and Earth, how did she know that his food is the best in the universe? 

"You doubt my taste buds?", blabbered flora.

"Ok ok I believe you but don't talk while eating or else you want to get choked with the universe's best food", Dragon teased her but was smiling after seeing her enjoying the food. After eating they went to the terrace and she asked him why he was cooking secretly at night. He told her that earlier when he got his powers, he couldn't control them and always made mistakes, comparatively his brothers were gifted. But one thing in which he was more talented is cooking but also he needs to hide it from people.

"Why? I saw how happy you were while cooking, so why do you have to hide your happiness?", questioned Flora.

He told her that only his brothers support him and he always gets to do his favourite thing whenever they spend their time together in Andromeda Galaxy but in Drake Galaxy people believe that being in the kitchen, a king can't control the affairs of the planet well.

"Huh, what a stupid comment. I mean didn't every mother cook and also manage the house and work all together? Then why can't a king do that?" Flora gets furious and curses at people who say such things. Dragon smiled and said that he doesn't care about such things as long as he can see people he cares about enjoying his food. Flora asked him if he misses his brothers whenever he wants to cook. He looked up at the sky and told her why she thought he was cooking at night.
