Dinner With the Guests (Part-1)

Alexander watched quietly Mean wolf down a large helping of the pasta, only taking the time to briefly blow at the steaming hot dish so as not to scorch her mouth.

She had been working non-stop from midday and it was already time for supper, so few could blame her for her ravenous appetite.

Finally, after taking close to ten large spoonfuls of the carbonara, Mean finally let out a content moan, "Ahhh, Alex you sure know how to make some good dishes."

"I'm glad it's to your liking." Alexander sent a light smile and then gestured, "It's already getting late. So let's make enough more everyone."

And so, an hour later, the duo along with some additional help managed to produce enough carbonara to feed his family and the guests.

Then under the expectant and curious eyes of the eight awaiting ladies sitting around the table, Alexander and Mean entered the dining hall, carrying a very large bowl of streaming carbonara.
