Capítulo 171: Kids?! (III)
A pleasant breeze whistled past us, bringing with it a welcoming smell of breaded honey. I couldn't help but sniff the air with glee at the thought of the beautiful scent. My lips quivered, and my mouth salivated. These elves knew how to stir up my taste buds because I could smell food a good distance away.
The moment we stepped into the city's entranceway, I could hear the rustling of lively chatter, echoing out with a welcoming tone.
"We're here~" I spoke in glee at the thought of tasting the delicious homemade bakery that seemed to fill up my very nose. Just the idea of food made my stomach grumble with excitement to taste the chewy dough that melted in my mouth.
Looking from left to right, I searched for the first sign of the bakery. My nose lifted up in the air, following the sweet call of honey-filled bread.
"What is she doing?" Khor asked, looking at me curiously.
"She smells food." Phil bluntly replied instantly, knowing precisely what I was doing without thinking.
"Really?" Khor grunted, sniffing the air in the hopes of finding the source of food that I was smelling. "I don't smell anything but flowers and...more flowers."
I didn't listen to any of them as the draw of food drew me to a store. My feet scampered forward, taking me instantly to the source.
"I found it!" I squelched in delight at the delicious food in front of me. My hands hit the glass window, seeing the honey backed bread with starry eyes.
"Miss." A soft but beautiful lark like voice spoke towards me gently.
I glanced up, and my mouth dropped. "Such a pretty lady." I instantly spoke, realizing that it wasn't normal for me to blurt out something like that. Mostly because most of the elven ladies were unearthly beautiful themselves. But this lady, something about her scar-faced look, gave her an enchanting look. She wore it proudly as if it was some kind of badge of honor, staring intensely into my eyes, not afraid of what people would say. The confidence she gave off was enchanting, almost lustrously exciting.
That wasn't all. The clothes the lady wore were earthy in color, giving her a homely feel. It wasn't too revealing or obnoxiously crazy, also giving her class.
"Why, thank you." She gave me a bewitching smile, winking at me. "Is there anything that fancy you today?"
I nodded, my stomach grumbled, telling me that I needed to eat now. "I'll take the honey bread, please."
"How many?"
"Could I have…." I thought it over. The thought of only having one sounded like a bad idea, mostly because I couldn't savory the bread's sweet taste for long periods. If I stopped there, I would probably hit myself for wanting more. "Ten, please."
"No problem," She walked over, picking up some honey bread with a tongue. She put it in a clear plastic bag and tied it up with a pink bow. I fished in my pocket, pulling out some silver coins, and slipped it towards her.
Gratefully, she took the coins and spoke. "Come again."
I snatched the bread from the counter and greedily chuckled. "Oh, I will." Smacking my lips a few times, I picked through the bread to see which one of the ten I would eat first. Instantly, I realized that there was one extra bread in my package.
Spinning around, I looked over towards her. She gave me a wink, telling me it was a secret between us. I gratefully took it with a slight nod as I dashed out of the store.
Taking bread out of the bag, I slipped it into my mouth.
"Delicious~" I spoke in excitement, munching it with fervor.
"Oh?" Phil came over beside me.
I raised up to take another bite, he snuck in. With a chomp, he took a large chunk of my bread.
"Hey!" I replied in an annoyed screech for stealing my food. "That's mine!"
"Sharing is caring."
"Not on my watch," I replied, stuffing the rest into my mouth. My cheeks were full like a chipmunk.
Phil gulped, eating all the food in one go. "If you eat all that, you might get a bit…." He looks me up and down. He coughed once.
"Rude," I spoke, huffing.
"How cute." He chuckled, "if you eat too fast, you're going to choke."
I gulped, "I'm not."
"Anyways, let's go get things done for now." Phil licked his lips.
"We have all the time in the world," I stated. There was no way I would gobble up this food so quickly to the point where I didn't enjoy it.
"You want to lug these dwarves around with you all day?" He asked, raising up his eyebrow at me, then he crossed his arm.
"I'm not going anywhere," I replied. "After I finish this. I'll go and make what they need."
Khor and Gorum walked over, watching me eat the bread. It disappeared like water as I inhaled the food one after the other.
"You should slow down," Gorum replied.
"I will,��� I took another bite.
We continued onwards. I enjoyed my honey bread, half shoving and half gulping it down in one bite after another. Our trip down the elven city was a lot more peaceful than I thought. By now, I would have assumed that the busy streets would be nosy with the gossip of yesterday's incident one way or another. So far, there wasn't anything going on that had a hint of such occurrence. It felt like yesterday was just a dream as we strolled in for a walk.
Luckily, it didn't bother me much; recalling last night was a bit too much, where I choked from thinking about it. Still, I played it off cool, not minding as much.
We made it to the crystal shop, where I bought the necessary ingredients to make the recording. Which didn't take too long to complete. Still eating a honey bread while working on the recording, I quickly finished the necessary things that the two dwarves needed.
