Chapter 4

In this kind of situation, how should I act? And what should I say? The guy I'm simping for is standing in front of me! I walk towards my closet and pick some night gown to wear. As I was picking what to wear, I hear he opened the door and I immediately stop him.

"wait! Are you going right now? It's already night, you should take a rest too."

He looks at me so cold, even though he's wearing a mask, I can still feel his cold glaze towards me. Well, I do understand him, Liliana have hurt his feelings before and Liliana always shows in her actions that she doesn't like Krios at all. I don't want this chance to be thrown away, so I gathered the courage to talk to him.

"Why are you doing this? I thought you hate being with me?"

"Ahm, about that, I was just shocked this morning when I waked up that you're beside me, because you know, you always waked up earlier than me. So don't go anywhere and sleep here okay?"

He looks at me for a few seconds and he push away my hand. He walks towards our bed and lay down. Phew, good thing he listened to me and I also decided to lay beside him. As I lay down beside him, I look at his wide back and I felt a sharp pain in my heart. It's true that he's beside me now yet he's still too far. I close my eyes and drove to dreamland.

I can feel the sun warmth in my cheeks, inviting me to open my eyes. As soon as I opened my eyes, I saw that Krios is hugging me and his hands at me waist. I want to scream, not in disgust but because this felt like a dream. I brush off the hair that covering his mask and look at him. I wonder what he look like behind that mask? But I don't care what he really looks like, I love him as he is and a mere appearance won't change that. I sit up and kiss his mask, after that, I stand up to prepare myself. I took a robe and walk towards the kitchen. I think it's still too early, because there's no one currently in the kitchen. I started preparing the ingredients I need and I'm planning to make some pancakes. Based on the novel, both Krios and Xino has a sweet tooth, yes, they're both cold but they have a weakness when it comes to sweets hehe. Now let the war begin!

*The recipe Liliana going to use is what I'm also using hehe*

I took 3 cups of flour, 2 teaspoons of baking powder, 3-4 tablespoon of sugar and mix them all in a ball. Mix them well and add your milk, you can also add some eggs, to make the pancakes much fluffier and bouncier. As soon as I finished making the batter, I heated up the pan and pour enough batter. It was somewhat hard to cook them without a pancake maker but I know I can manage it. As soon as I finished cooking, I divided them into 3 plates, I put some berries and pour enough sweetened syrup. I immediately put them into the dining table and run towards my room. As I entered the room, I see that Krios is still sleeping so I quietly cleaned myself and wear some proper clothes. After making sure I look presentable, I slowly walk out the room and walk towards Xino's room. I saw him sleeping like an angel and I feel like I just have drop my heart into the floor. If only there's a cellphone or digital camera in this world, I would love to capture every moment with Xino and Krios. I slowly wake up Xino and he immediately open up his eyes. He scratches his eyes and stretch both of his arms. He looks so cute! He's like a cat! His face lightens up when he saw me and he immediately hug me.

"Good morning My Lady!"

"Good morning too Young Master Xino, did you have a good sleep?"

"Yes, I did!"

He smiles at me and I also smile back as I brush his bed hairs. I helped him change his clothes and after that, we walk towards the kitchen as I held his cute little hand. When we have arrived at the dining area, I saw Krios is already sitting there while reading some newspapers. When he felt our presences, he immediately put down the newspaper and sit properly. I help Xino to sit properly and ask the servants to serve the pancakes I made. As soon as they saw the pancakes, I can feel like their eyes sparkled but they immediately composed themselves. I smiled as I watch them eating the pancakes and I thought to myself that waking up early in the morning was worth it. I also eat my breakfast and as I eat, Xino's asking me question like where did the pancakes came from. So I told him that I'm the one who make it. His eyes widened as soon as I said I'm the one who made them.

"Really?! My Lady did you cooked all of these pancakes?!"

"Yes, I did. I woke up early to prepare that because I know you like eating that in the morning."

I smile at him and he also smile back at me. When we finished our breakfast, Xino ask me to go for a walk in the garden and of course I said yes. We were about to go out when Krios stopped me. Oh my! I was indulging at Xino's cuteness that I have forgotten about Krios! I immediately look back at him and smile.

"Where are you two going?"

"We're going to the garden for our morning walk, if it's not disturbing your schedule, would you mind joining us?"

He simple nodded his head and walk beside me as we walk towards the garden. When we have arrived there, I immediately smile because there's so many flowers! As we walk, Xino was picking some flower and I also did the same thing. After a few minutes of walking, we decided to sit down in the benches under a big tree. As soon I sit down, I immediately started do the flower crown, well, I want to make two of it, one for Xino and one for Krios. After a few minutes, I'm done doing it. When I look back at Xino, I also saw that he was doing a flower crown.

"Young Master Xino, can you look here for a moment?"

As soon as he looked back, I put the flower crown I made and he immediately blush, haha, he looks so cute. Of course I also made one for Krios so I gently put it in his head and smile at him. Xino was also done with his flower crown so I help him put it on my head. Xino and I laugh and I look back at Krios, I can't see his expression but I hope I have make him happy. I closed my eyes and wish that days like this will last forever.
