Chapitre 190: Chapter 182: She knows my favourite snacks
After saying goodbye to Eren, the rest of the Keene family members went to the living room, together with Erick. The latter was carrying his backpack, which was filled with his teaching utensils. He had planned to use them to teach Remi.
Inside, Syden was explaining to Erick on the topics she had taught Remi before and also showed him the syllabus that Remi would be learning the next school year.
While his mother was explaining to Erick, Remi was sitting on the sofa, together with Amber. He was waiting patiently to start studying with Erick, his eyes brightened like the stars as he fidgeted around in his seat. Amber had to hold his hands to keep him calm.
Amber looked down at her brother and felt a bit sad. She felt sympathy for her little brother who hadn't had any experience of going to school and meeting new friends. At most, he would meet them at some center with their mother, which he hardly goes, as well.
Apparently, Syden was done explaining to Erick and was about to go to the kitchen when she saw her daughter sitting together with Remi. She cocked an eyebrow. "What are you doing here?"
Amber narrowed her eyes back at her mother. "I'm just sitting here…" she said slowly.
Syden smiled. "Oh, so you're not doing anything, is it?" she asked, sounding suspiciously sweet.
Amber furrowed her eyebrows, feeling a bit wary with her mother's behavior. "What's going on?" she asked.
Her mother immediately went into the kitchen, without answering her. A few minutes later, she returned with a piece of paper in her hand. She handed it to her dumbfounded-looking daughter and said, "Here, go and buy the things in this list."
Amber frowned as she took the paper from her mother and read the list. "Didn't daddy just go grocery shopping the other day?" she asked in confusion.
Syden leaned closer to Amber and whispered in her ear, not knowing that Erick could still hear her whispering. "Do you think the food here would be enough? It wouldn't be polite if we don't have enough food for our guest here," she said softly.
In front of her, Erick could feel the corner of his lips twitching in amusement when he heard Amber's mother's words. Seems like Syden understood his appetite more than he realized.
After Amber reluctantly left home to do her chores, Syden brought Erick and Remi over to Eren's study.
At first, Erick was surprised as to why Eren would sacrifice his study room to him. For men, their study room is like their personal haven where no one should enter unless permitted to.
However, as he walked inside Eren's study, he realized that there was no reason for the latter to be wary of other people using his study.
The room itself was big, with beige wallpaper adorning the walls and soft lighting brightening the rooms. There was a huge study table, in front of the large bay window, which was framed with white lace curtains. Lights from outside could be seen seeping through the window, illuminating the room inside. On the side of the room, there were several bookshelves, filled with numerous books. Using his eyes, looking far from the entrance of the door, he could see that most of the book titles on the side were of psychology, laws and sociology. On the other side of the room, there was another table with two chairs being placed side by side.
Erick assumed that the table should be one he has to use.
After telling Erick and Remi to not touch other things in the room, other than the table that they will be using, Syden left the room. However, she had left the door ajar as instructed by Eden.
Once she had left the room, Erick led Remi to the table and told him to sit down. He then began to place the books that he will be using as a guide to teach Remi.
Since Remi was seven years old, he will probably be entering first grade in school. And seeing how he doesn't have much practice with his handwriting, compared to reading, Erick decided that he should start on the handwriting. He brought along some handwriting practice books for Remi to write on. Along the way, he also helped Remi to read out some words and to recognize the letters and sentences.
An hour later, Syden came in, knocking on the door, bringing a tray filled with snacks and drinks. She brought with her, a jug of fresh orange and a huge plate of club sandwiches. When she placed the tray on an empty spot on the table, it was then Erick noticed there was a small bowl of chocolate biscuits, as well.
Seeing that Erick was looking at the bowl, Syden said that the biscuits were for Remi while the club sandwiches were for him.
Erick felt warmth in his heart. He knew that Amber's mother still doesn't trust him much ever since she found out that he was a shifter. But seeing how she prepared these food for him and that she trusts him with her son alone in the room, even if the door was left ajar, shows how much she was slowly trusting him once more. And it was one of his favourite snacks too!
He gave her a huge smile and thanked her happily.
Amber was watching from the entrance of the study room, holding the laundry basket. Earlier, she wanted to bring the tray up to them but her mother stopped her, saying that she would distract them.
She was flabbergasted at her mother's insinuation that she would disturb them when she was just going to send the tray to them. But her mother still refused to let her and told her to just stay in her room and study or do the chores around the house.
When her mother was about to leave the room, she saw her standing outside the room. She then gestured at her with her chin, as if to tell her to go continue to do her chores.
Amber withheld the urge to roll her eyes and continued on, going down the stairs to the laundry room.
Erick smiled when he saw Amber walking away. He grabbed one of the club sandwiches and took a bite. His eyes widened in surprise. It was quite delicious. Crispy lettuce, cold sliced cucumbers, sweet mayonnaise, turkey breast slices, fresh tomatoes and cheddar cheese stacked together between two slices of wheat bread.
He was on his fifth piece when Syden poked her head in and said that it was Amber who made those sandwiches. Erick felt more love towards his mate. She really does know what his favourite snacks are.
Once they were done with their snacks, Erick and Remi continued on with their studying. Truth be told, Erick really did enjoy his time with the little boy. And seeing how the latter still looks happy and excited to learn, he knows that he has done his job well.
