Insane Bakery!

****(POV) 

How long have I been kneeling at the Mystery Gems House?

I lost track of time. 

*Sigh* But it is normal for one to suffer to attain one's goal. 

Hopefully, all this suffering will be worth it in the end. 

The merciless heat of the sun. 

The chilliness of the wind. 

I am braving the elements here. 

I do find a little respite in the attendant next to me. 

Supporting me morally. 

With small gestures like holding an umbrella for me. 

Massaging my back. 

Feeding me fruits. 

Serving me fine wines. 

Singing my praises, especially my perseverance. 

You know small stuff really. 

She is extremely impressed by my resilience. 

What can I say, I am just like that!

In the background, I can see the talion guy openly disdaining me. 

Scoffing from time to time while looking at us. 

I don't let it affect me because I know he is simply jealous.
