"I already finished it."
The guy answered, but in reality he didn't have work to do. Who would dare to give him that?
"Is...that so?"
Eugene was still not convinced at all but still chose to believe, if he says he's done then ok.
"Yes, so do you need help?"
The guy was still staring at him and after thinking for a bit he agreed, who wouldn't want someone's help? And it's free.
The two then continued mopping the cold floor of the hallway.
When it reached noon the two were already done cleaning up the hallway and were facing mountains of plates and pots.
They started to wash the dishes, Eugene was the one who cleaned it using a soap, rinsed it with water then the guy dried it using a clean cloth.
"Riel, shouldn't we eat lunch first? Aren't you hungry?"
The guy Riel paused and stopped wiping the plate he was holding to dry then gaze at Eugene who was still washing the dishes.
"Alright"
He walked towards the food inside the kitchen and got himself some, he used the plate he was wiping to dry earlier.
When Eugene saw this he rinsed his hand that was full of bubbles because of the soap with water.
Looking for a towel to dry his hand and didn't find any, he casually wiped his hands on his clothes, it's a habit he had in his past life.
He picked up a plate from the plates that Riel already dried up and also followed the guy behind to get himself food.
There were no other people inside the kitchen except for the two of them, all the chefs were called to the palace.
Even the servant was also there, Eugene didn't know if there was someone left behind beside him and Riel here in the kitchen.
The two didn't even know how the dishes become a pile of plates when no ones even around to use it!!
After the two get themself food, the two sit down in the chair in front of the table and eat quietly.
The food was a white rice with a dish called 'adobo'(Filipino dish).
Only the sound of a spoon bumping to the plate can be heard between them.
After all there was a saying 'Don't talk when your mouth is full', because you look like a pig if you talk while eating or chewing your food.
Besides that Eugene didn't know what topic he should talk about.
He was thinking about it when he heard Riel talk.
"After this what's your next to-do?"
Eugene looked at Riel who was eating, his head down so he didn't know the expression on his face.
He frowned, why does he love to do work? He said his work was already finished so he was willing to help me.
A workaholic? Staring at the guy in front of him.
He chewed the food in his mouth and swallowed it before speaking.
"I need to get the food stocks here from the storage room."
That's right, just like yesterday he carried boxes. Maybe those boxes were the things he needed to put here.
Then why didn't just tell him to put it here in the kitchen and not in the storage?
Eugene looks around the kitchen while chewing the food in his mouth.
The kitchen space was huge but if those boxes of food stocks were to be put here then this huge space won't be enough.
Ok, I understand that now.
Anyways it's just carrying, it's not that hard......
.
.
.
Eugene's mouth twitched, looking at the inside of the storage room.
Just yesterday this wasn't full like this, only a day had passed and now you can't even fit in those small spaces to go inside.
It was now in the afternoon, he and Riel had finished eating and washed the dishes earlier before coming here.
Eugene looked down on the piece of paper he was holding, it was the paper Mirvana gave him after seeing him earlier eating in the kitchen.
A list of the food stocks he needs to carry from here to the kitchen.
Lettuce - 1 box
Carrots - 1 box
Tomatoes - 1 box
Strawberries - 2 boxes
He didn't finish his reading when Riel suddenly walked in front of him.
He saw Riel pull up his sleeve on his arms like he was preparing himself and then ask him.
"Step backward, I'll make a space for us to go inside and get those things properly."
He was about to protest when Riel already picked up the food boxes in front that were blocking the doorway to put on the side.
It lasted half a minute before Riel finished.
Eugene walked inside and started to look for a box of lettuce, Riel also helped.
The two looked at different sides so the search wouldn't be that long.
As Eugene rummaged here and there while putting away the boxes he opened so he could know the thing inside, he finally found the box of lettuce.
He closes it first then picks it up and walks outside to put it there.
His plan was to collect the food stocks he needed first before carrying it all to the kitchen so his work wouldn't be that hard.
It took two hours for the two to finally find all the food stocks on the list and the two carried it to the kitchen.
The chefs inside the kitchen were busy cooking, they were testing some dishes for the upcoming banquet that the butler of his Highness told them to prepare.
When Eugene and Riel reach the kitchen the chefs don't look up at them.
Eugene walked towards the nearest one and spoke to ask something.
"Amm Mr. Chef where should I put this box of food?"
The chef finally notices them and looks up, he was supposed to yell at Eugene by telling him it's his work so he should know about it but immediately choked before he opened his mouth when he saw who was beside the youth.
He smiled and politely answered.
"Please just put all of those there."
His almost gold(lol)teeth were exposed after he smiled, Eugene didn't look at those teeth and just focused himself on the place the chef pointed at.
It was near the sink where he and Riel washed the dishes.
The two then put all the boxes there and when they were done.
Eugene walked up towards the chef again, hesitating to ask.
When Riel saw this he finally spoke again.
"What is it?"
The voice was filled with a gentle tone which made the chefs nearby shiver in cold when they heard it.
They look at the youth beside him with pity.
Ahhh what a poor child.
Eugene didn't notice it so he answered him. He lowered his voice and leaned a little close so the others won't hear it which made Riel's expression become amused.
"I was just gonna ask if the dish they were cooking was for us, if not maybe I could ask them if I can bring back some with me to eat for dinner."
Riel couldn't help but chuckle a little when he heard this, so it was just about the food.
When the chefs heard his laugh they started to sweat in fear. That laugh was like a devil calling them from the bottom of hell.
Child please stop talking anymore, if he went mad we couldn't bear to take it!
Riel walked towards the chef that Eugene asked earlier and said.
"That dish you were cooking, when you're done give it to him."
He pointed at the dumbfounded Eugene who was standing there.
The chef nodded and said in a calm tone.
"Yes"
But in fact he was panicking inside, he kept sweeping his hands on his clothes.
"Good"
Riel then went back to Eugene and the two sat in the chair where they ate earlier waiting for the food.
