A/n: Hey guys! I'm sorry for writer blocks because I had been busy with internship. Being a kindergarten teacher is hard and if someone said being kindergarten teacher is easy, they don't understand how we had been through. I even had lot unfinished works that need to finish before reopen the kindergarten because of coronavirus that had been spread out in my country. Until now, I have a lot free time to update my story and to finish my works until 31st March. So, hope you enjoy this crappy chapter! Sorry again! :D

~(X)~

The group continue their way as Alex continue writing about the latest accident from before for report as he tuned out from everyone since he need to get the report done. Suddenly, Alex notice that the group become slower than before then stop which there's only one thing that always happened. 

Another flashback. 

"Alex, is he alright?" Charlie asks, his eye full of guilty since he's the only one always causing the chocolatier stop his tracks. And Alex guessed that Charlie had asked another question that causing his husband have another flashback. Alex put his comfort smile and ruffling Charlie's brown hair. "It's fine. Give me a moment." 

Alex walks towards his husband who still in his flashbacks, quickly give him a wave since it's always works but for some reason, it doesn't give any reaction. So, Alex give his husband a good pinch on his cheeks and this causing the chocolatier snaps out from his thought. "Are you alright, hun?" Alex asks and Willy Wonka slowly nodded. 

"I-I'm fine... Just having flashback...S-Sorry..." Willy Wonka apologized and Alex just shook his head before give a soft peck on Willy Wonka's cheeks while using the clipboard to cover the scene from the guests. "I see..." Mr Salt said, bringing his daughter close to him while step backwards away from the couple and when Alex saw this, he scoffed where catching all the attentions. 

"All he did just having a flashback, not doing anything to you. Rude." Alex mumbled annoyed as he continues writing for the report that he needs to finish for today since he had day off tomorrow. "These flashbacks happen often?" Mr Teevee asks warily while Willy finally lifts his head a bit more, feeling a little calm after receiving a peck from his husband that he always loves. 

"Increasingly.... Today...." He seems to shake it off after that, and begins leading the group again. 

Before Alex start walking, he feeling a tug on his shirt causing the male looking down, seeing Charlie gazing up at him with guilt in his eyes. "Was that my fault...?" Charlie ask and Alex smiles at him. 

"It's alright Charlie. Many things can give someone a flashback, you just said the right thing to send Willy into one. Besides, it's not your fault and it will never be. Remember that, alright?" The older male ruffled Charlie's brown hair who smiles at the older male happily. They were unaware that Willy Wonka doing the same as he watched the two out of the corner of his eyes. 

Things going so well from there when Alex couldn't help but suppress a laugh when he saw Mr. Salt offer the card to his husband which making Willy Wonka throw it away when the business wasn't looking at him before they enter the Nut Sorting Room. 

All the children were curious and of course, a certain spoiled little princess is interested with the animal called, "Squirrels!" The spoiled princess, Veruca Salt exclaimed happily and Alex couldn't help but feeling pride inside him. "These squirrels are specially trained by me to get the nuts out of shells. Watch this." 

Alex let out a whistle and immediately calling out one of trained squirrels. 

"Itona! Itona, come here girl!" 

One of squirrels' ear perked up and the guests watched in amazement as the squirrel name 'Itona' leave the seat and rush to the stairs before climbing towards Alex's shoulder. "That's so cool..." Charlie muttered in amazed and Alex chuckled before kneeling down to the boy's height with the squirrel sitting on his shoulder. 

"Try pet her." Alex instructed and Charlie slowly put his hand on the squirrel's head who immediately leaned onto the touch, causing Charlie let out small giggle while Charlie's grandfather let out a soft chuckle. 

"Why use squirrels? Why not use Oompa-Loompas?" Mr. Salt asked. 

"Well, because the squirrel is the only one who can get the whole walnut out every single time." Willy Wonka explained about good benefits using the squirrels and notice one of them doing something different. "Oh, look!" Willy Wonka immediately pointing toward the squirrel who messing with it's nut, banging it against the edge of the half pipe and putting it to its ear. "I think that's one had a bad nut." Said Willy Wonka as they watch the squirrel throw the bad nut away into the hole where the garbage went. 

Being spoiled brat she is, Veruca quickly glanced her father as she knowing what she wants exactly. 

After watching how trained the squirrel was when she watches the squirrel obey Alex's order, she thought it would be amazing if she had a squirrel that can obey her and only her order. 

"Daddy, I want a squirrel, get me one of those squirrels. I want one." Veruca ordered and this make Alex silently scoffed as he rolls his eyes. 

"Veruca, you have many marvelous pets at home." Mr. Salt tried to convince her but knowing how spoiled she was, Alex knew that she wasn't going to let go of this. 

"All I've got at home is one pony and two dogs and four cats and six bunny rabbits and two parakeets and three canaries and a green parrot and a turtle, and a silly old hamster. I want a squirrel!" Veruca stated angrily making Alex and Willy Wonka both eyed her dumbfounded. To think it was amazing that she had pets that many and she want more. 

What a spoiled little brat she is. 

"Alright, pet. Daddy will get you a squirrel just as soon as he possibly can." Mr. Salt said as he give in. "But I don't want any old squirrel, I want a trained squirrel." Veruca added. "Very well." Mr. Salt nodded. 

Willy Wonka and Alex look to each other, already know what will happened. 

"Mr. Wonka, how much do you want for one of these squirrels? Name your price." Mr. Salt ask as Veruca then looked up at Willy Wonka with a wide, fake smile. "Oh, they're not for sale. She can't have one." Alex said before Willy Wonka do anything. Veruca's smile turned into an angry, puffed up look. She quickly and almost ferociously turned to her dad again. "Daddy." Mr.Salt hearing this, flinched back slightly almost as if he were frightened a bit. Which this make Alex rolled his eyes. 

"I'm sorry, darling. Mr. Wonka's being unreasonable." Alex glanced at his husband, to see his husband had puckered his lips and did an impression of Mr. Salt which this causing Alex snort of amusement at his husband's childish joke. 

"If you won't get me a squirrel, I'll get one myself." Veruca squeeze herself through the gate and went down, ignore her father who calling out her names as if she doesn't hear or she just ignore it. "Little girl?" Willy Wonka spoke with his cautious one. "Don't touch that squirrel's nuts. It'll make them crazy!" Willy Wonka tried to warn her and Alex know that the spoiled brat never listens to anyone. 

"Oh, for the love of god...." Alex muttered annoyed, knowing she's going to be eliminate soon enough.
