chapter 27

N/A: I was thinking of doing this chapter as in the previous one where I told how Albert and maria met, but I decided to do it later in short scenes, since Wesker is one of the future characters that will have importance in the mystery that I have planned in the story.

"" Do you think this will go well sir."

"Si.....besides mr. wesker is not going to wait any longer, it's time to take Ethan to the boss or else we will be experimentation material."

It has been three days since the scavenger agent talked to Albert Wesker. In all that time they tried to kidnap Ethan, but too many things happened and none of them planned to alert Sherry. They had to be as discreet as possible or they would get into too much trouble in the power war going on in the umbrella corporation.

Several things were planned to kidnap Ethan when he went out but it was completely difficult since he always went out accompanied by someone close to Sherry, and that was already taking them out of their minds, so they stopped being discreet and that some day when Ethan went out to do the shopping with Sherry, they kidnapped him.

A very risky thing to do, but they would rather survive and kiss the sole of Albert Wesker's shoe than die at his hands, while being protected by the umbrella boss who is after Sherry's parents and who keeps Sherry as a bargaining chip for possible betrayal by William Birkin and Annette.

"What shall we do today with brother Ethan?"Spoke Emily, Ethan's self-nominated little sister whom he treats with more appreciation since he was not a father and could play favorites.

"I'm sorry.....today I'm going to accompany Sherry to do the shopping. After all, today is Sherry's birthday, so I'm ordering them since today is 03/18/16."

(N/A: I already gave the date is day, month, year in which they are and another thing I will not put month in name because there are 120 months and I will not invent new months).

It's true, sister Sherry's birthday is today! Shouted all the children as they went to congratulate Sherry. The only one who was not surprised was surprisingly Jacob, who had already congratulated Sherry on her birthday.

That day was Sherry's birthday, the day she would spend with everyone her happy birthday.

Ethan had been planning everything ever since he found out about her birthday. He was very happy after all she was the third friend of his of whom he would attend a birthday party and he hoped nothing would go wrong, as he had bad memories of when Sara left and made his whole world go gray.

Thing he had complicated feelings about, as his chest hurt and he felt crushed every time he remembered it, but that was also why he left his cowardice and left his village to travel and that was also why Ethan met sherry to the other kids at the orphanage, they had fun and solved their problems and that was the reason for the complicated feelings, but it was a day of celebration and he should leave all thoughts out of his head, other than about sherry's party, as it would be the best day ever.

"He will be the one who will distract Sherry and the children will help Aiko to order everything. At first, it was Aiko who would order everything since he already cooked everything very early, but in the end it seems that all the children will help her and for sure they will finish faster, they will do everything that Sherry asks for that day.

"Well what do you want to do sherry" asked Ethan.

"I really don't know.....what do you do when you go out on a date?"

"I mean on a friends date ..." spoke to Sherry quickly, she was blushing for saying it was a date.

"I don't have any experience going out with a friend to have fun either, as I always used to slide with my friends in the snowy mountains or reading books or whatever they could think of" Ethan replied, he really didn't know anything about what to do with friends, he didn't know anything that a common teenager should know, as he wasn't someone normal.

In the Sherry and Ethan couple's doubt, the noise of the street began to make itself noticeable, the cars began to pass through the streets more frequently, while the stalls began to open one after another, something that was not noticed in the reverie of both.

It was too early to eat and go to the karaoke room, so the options Ethan had were very limited, at least the ones he knew they could do, until a small store opened across the street where sherry and Ethan were.

It was a small store, but it was like a glimmer of hope for Ethan, so he took Sherry by the hand, after all if a lot of people came in it was sure to be something fun.

Once they entered...it was a large kitchen, it was full of cutlery, utensils and various other kitchen stuff, which Ethan didn't understand and Sherry at least understood better, but that wasn't what made them both uncomfortable.

Everyone was couples....o at least those who stayed. Since the stall was full of young couples, it emanated an air of awkwardness for people who came alone.

Both confused they went outside and saw the sign "Learn to cook "all normal, but there was a small sign next to the door, which most people didn't think much of but which Sherry and Ethan read.

"Only day, cooking in pairs" they both wanted to leave, but it was late, all the eyes were on them, they couldn't turn back because all the couples were watching the door, to see the couple of Sherry and Ethan who were still holding hands.

Unable to stand the stares from everyone, Sherry and Ethan decided to go inside and stood to one side away from everyone.

"It's okay for us to stay "whispered sherry.

"Well....I don't know the truth, but we can pass the time, which can go wrong, since we can have fun at least, cooking "Ethan replied.

"But we know how to cook...what. We pretend we don't know "Sherry asked intrigued, she felt bad, but what could she do.

"Well....let's have fun" cheered Ethan.

Several minutes passed, until finally an older woman came, wearing an apron and a chef's hat, and gave the recipe for cooking.

What's going on here! Ethan wanted to shout, the class was supposed to be for beginners, but the way they all moved was not that of a beginner and they coordinated well, you could tell they had been a couple for a long time.

"You are doing very well, I can tell you have confidence in your partner, be more fluid yourselves too, have confidence in your partner" reproached the lady to Ethan and Sherry, who while not doing as well as the other couples, were still decent.

"Good," Sherry and Ethan replied to each other.

"Pass the salt."

"Here."

"Dress the vegetables."

"Start making the rice."

"Start making the cream."

Sherry and Ethan started talking to each other, they had long since forgotten their embarrassment and didn't even notice when they started smiling at each other as they cooked, they were in their own world as they cooked.

The feeling of cooking was relaxing when you had someone to company.

The presentation was done and everyone put their prepared food and dessert of choice on the table.

The food looked delicious to everyone while spreading the fragrance of each meal throughout the room and increasing everyone's hunger.

"Let's eat" they all said to each other as they were about to eat. The only ones who didn't were Sherry and Ethan, who were stopped by a lady who apparently knew them.
