Chapter 7: Strange

"Okay" he replied with no much attention and finally finished the half-filled porridge he was eating.

Adam is an interesting name though…

"I'll get you another serving wait" Celestia stood up and took the bowl from him.

'Although he is not a talkative type of person or an easy-going one, I guess I can bear with him until he recovers his memory although I don't know when…'

After all, Celestia is not the kind to abandon a person with no capacity to be alone but what if he is from the Empire?

Celestia just erased the thought, he is surely from the empire that is a given but she can't just possibly go there and ask the people if they know Adam, the empire is an enormous place, it will take her years if not decades to find Adam's place, it is the best to just wait patiently.

After she got him another full bowl of porridge she started to discuss their agreement, she won't be there tomorrow to guide him might as well inform him.

"I will be taking care of you from now on, I hope you have no complaints in that so we should get along okay? You will be staying here for a while, this house is Ted's he is a gay but he is amiable, you can be rest assured that you are in good hands" Celestia said continuously as she watches Adam eat her home-made food.

Adam, on the other hand, is still alert although some parts of his mind is still wandering somewhere pertaining to why he ended up there and who he really is, it is nerve-racking not to know who you are but Adam is beyond these kinds of emotions that's why he is calm, he knew he will soon regain his identity, it's what his guts are telling him.

Celestia continued her monologue, "I will go here whenever I'm available and I will cook for you, do you have any preferred food?"

Adam was taken aback by the question, what does he want to eat? He thought of something "Lobsters..." he trailed, he cannot recall what specific food he wants but he likes to have some lobsters.

Celestia was flabbergasted and is beyond confused, "Are all civilians who live in the empire wealthy? Lobsters can only be offered to the royals here" Good thing she is one, guess she needs to sneak into the kitchen tomorrow.

She composed herself before replying, "Ah, o-okay, I'll try to cook it tomorrow evening, hmm, for the clothes just ask Ted okay? He has some spare"

Although Ted is much smaller in comparison to Adam, Celestia has no choice but to let Adam borrow some clothes for now, she will just buy him later, she already remembers his physique anyway. His height is about 6'4 feet tall and is quite bulky.

Adam just gave a small nod as he finished his second bowl, the night is getting late and Celestia who is feeling drowsy, pats the head of her patient, "Be a good boy okay? I'll sleep downstairs, ask Ted next room if you need anything, Goodnight Adam" she gently pats his head before going down.

'What a weird woman' Adam thought with a small smile as the door closes, if the basis of age is in terms of height and mentality, Adam is mostly older than her by 3 years or more and yet she acts as if he is her younger brother.

Adam is not used to that kind of warmth, a feeling that gives off a cozy effect, a thing that felt odd yet at the same time, comfortable.
