Chapter 152 – Bear-san Makes A Shortcake

I had finally completed it. The devil’s food.
Using a spoon, I scooped up a bit of this white and soft thing and tasted it.

「So sweet!」

I finally managed to make cream, and making cream meant I could now make shortcake.
I had seen strawberries being sold in the town, and it had made me want to eat shortcake.
Now, after numerous attempts, I finally completed it.
I could even make many different flavours now; all I had to do was just add various things to the cream.
I could make cream puffs and many other cream related sweets.
First things first, though. I baked a sponge cake and added strawberries, covered it all with cream and topped it with more strawberries. My pseudo strawberry shortcake was complete.
Cream might have already existed in this world, but I had never seen any, and now, I managed to make it using my vague memories.
I cut off a slice of the shortcake and ate it.
It wasn’t as good as those made by Japanese professionals, but it was delicious enough.
Yep, it was totally worth going through all that trouble to make it.
As I was enjoying my shortcake, I heard someone knock at the door of my Bear House.
Who dared interrupt me when I was finally enjoying a cake after a long time!?

「Big Sis Yuna.」

It was Fina. It was fine, then.
If it had been Cliff or Mylene-san who had interrupted me, I would have sent them away.

「Fina, why are you here?」

「Gold-san should have finished the knife by today, so we should go and retrieve it, right?」

「Oh right, now that you mention it…」

I had just shut myself inside the house the last few days, so…

「You forgot even though it was just a few days ago!?」

She scolded me sharply.
No, today was not a day for retrieving knives; it was the day I finally made cream.
I should be eating my shortcake now.

「Fina, I made something delicious. Want to eat it?」

Since it was finally complete, I had to have Fina taste-test it for me.

「Eat what?」

「I made a cake.」

「A pancake?」

「No, it’s a bit different. It’s a shortcake.」

「Shortcake?」

「A strawberry shortcake, to be precise.」

Fina didn’t seem to understand what I was talking about.
It would be faster to just show it to her and make her eat it, then.
I took Fina’s hand and dragged her into the house.

「B-Big Sis Yuna!?」

Fina called out in surprise, but I decided not to mind it and dragged her to the room where the shortcake was.
I then made her sit down, cut off a slice of the shortcake and put it in front of her.
I also didn’t forget to add a glass of fruit juice.

「So, this is a shortcake?」

「Yep. Eat it and tell me how it is.」

「What is this white stuff?」

「It’s cream. It’s sweet and delicious.」

Fina timidly pierced a piece of the cake with the fork and brought it to her mouth.
Was she scared of putting an unknown thing in her mouth?
After eating a mouthful of cake, her expression changed, though.

「It’s delicious!」

Fina said and took another mouthful.

「Big Sis Yuna, it’s delicious. So sweet and soft.」
