Ivan [Part 5]

The Farnese's kitchen was lively today. A blonde woman merrily swayed her head around as she looked after the multiple dishes being cooked while a boy with black hair followed her around. He tried to help her, but only slowed her down.

The woman would stop stirring a dish, only the boy to take over and flail the ladle around. Luckily, the woman didn't seem to mind it at all. Her son was trying to help her in such a cute manner that she wanted to set up a few more dishes, and she would have done so were it not for the hag and crook. Ahem. Were it not for her in-laws sitting outside.

Yes, the grandparents of their child Ivan and the parents of Dante had come over to visit the Farnese's household. It was time for a celebration... not. It was a rough and tough day where Elizabeth's patience was tested to great lengths.
