บท 179: Chapter 178 : We got the old guys.
Kancor looked between Nectar and Nova who were both staring at Jewlica nervously [ So Pollen's here too ] He smiled thoughtfully to himself as he looked at his plate, [ I never actually thought about it but why name someone Pollen or Nectar? ]
He glanced at Jewlica who seemed more miserable than the two staring at her and sighed, " Would you like some juice instead Ica "? Jewlica nodded her head fervently, " Yes, please ".
Nectar and Nova snapped out of it and continued their meal in silence. Jewlica stared at her reflection in the juice, also confused [ Why did she call herself Pollen? And it seemed like no one else was supposed to know about that ]
She glanced at Nectar who was talking with Bonsi and tilted her head to the side [ Then why did Sister Qidu look like she knew the owner of that name? ]

" Do you like apples that much Bonsi "? Bonsi stopped mid bite and laughed, " Do I? We don't get much fresh fruit in Verflog so I guess I seem to be rushing it ". Nectar nodded [ Sounds like I'm being insensitive now ] " Oh! I didn't think of it that way ".
Bonsi shrugged, " I didn't mean to ruin the mood ". Nectar smiled, " Nothing like that. We'll just have to fill you on fruits before you go back ". Archie raised his hands high, " Yeah and me too ".
They all laughed and Nectar smiled at him, " We can even make pie ". Kancor nodded absent mindedly, " I'll glaze the cherries ". Nova smiled at her plate, " I'll make the whipped cream ". Caitlin suddenly whined, " Am I the only one at this table that can't cook anything "?
They all laughed and Kancor patted her head, " Don't worry about it. I'm sure Bonsi can't either ". She glared at him as she was about to take some chicken, " Why drag me into this? I'm happy eating whatever any of you make ".
They laughed and Dimitri nodded, " I agree ". Athena suddenly raised her hand, getting their attention as she spoke curiously, " I've read a lot of books on cooking. But I have to ask, what is pie and whipped cream? What does glaze mean "?
They looked at the three who were looking at each other and Luscious stroked his chin thoughtfully, " Now that I think about it, I've never heard of any of those ". Nova laughed nervously [ Things are going wrong again ] " Nectar and I used to mess around with it when we were younger. Isn't that right "?
Nectar nodded, " Of course, a really really long time ago. I almost forgot ". Kancor calmly shrugged, " To glaze cherries was something I thought of. I simply imagined cherries would go well with it " [ Nice save ] They all seemed to agree and continued to eat.

" What do you think they're talking about Reli "? Nathaniel sighed as he looked at them. Reli shrugged, slightly curious about their conversation, " I'm not sure ". Nichole swung her feet casually as she looked at them, " They look like they're having fun ".
June nodded, poking at her meal " Yeah and we're stuck with the old guys ". Kira glared at June who's mouth was being covered by Melanie, " She didn't mean that ". Arthur laughed, patting Kira's hand " She's not wrong ".
Mario looked at him curiously, " But you seem very interesting ". August nodded, " And super friendly. Not like that grouch next to you ". Liam laughed nervously, putting a grape in his mouth " Aren't you hungry "?
Kira frowned, " What's a grouch? Are you calling me that "? Mario shook his head as he looked at Anala who was on Arthur's left, " Not you, you're kinda nice. We're talking about the other one who made Archie cry ".
Anala seemed surprised and shook her head [ The other one? ] " That's a bold comment and it wasn't like I meant to ". Nichole licked her fork and pointed it at her, " Now I see it ". June nodded, " Yeah and Archie's a big softie ".
Anala held her spoon tightly [ Let it go. Don't bicker with children ] Ottis lifted his glasses as he looked at them, " Your vocabulary is a lot different from what I've learned. Where did you learn it "?
Nichole leaned forward and looked at Nathalie, " He's right, where did we learn it "? Mario shrugged, " From Sister Qidu of course. Who else could it possibly be "? Resna smiled at him thoughtfully, " I didn't think Nectar would let you call her that ".
August nodded with a smile, " Yeah, sometimes I forget her name. I like you, you seem nice ". Resna found herself smiling, " And you do too ". Famo pointed at himself, " What about me "?
June looked him up and down with a slight smirk, " Sister Qidu doesn't like you so we don't either ". Nichole nodded, " And I can see why ". The others laughed while Famo clicked his tongue in annoyance and Resna tried to console him.
Kira nodded at Nichole, " I like you. You've got a sharp mouth ". Nichole smiled sweetly, " Awn, thank you. I love your fashion sense too Empress Mother. Sister Qidu always dresses casual ".
Kira nodded and rolled her eyes, " I know right, it can get on my nerves some time ". Nichole nodded, " I thought I was the only one it bothered ". They both ended up laughing like they said something funny.
Melanie looked at Nathalie with a mix of fear and relief [ At least she didn't get on her nerves ] She glanced at Kira and shook her head [ But is this really any better? ]
