They were all gathered in the lounge, engaged in conversation when Xavier entered.

"Good evening." Xavier greeted

"How was your day, honey?" Mia Knight asked her son

Xavier replied, "It's good, Mom."

Bella, his sister, chimed in, "Bro, I want some money."

"I will transfer it to your account."

"thank you, brother." Bella smiled at him

"Huh, they even smile, strange," Reina observed the interactions and thought as she looked at the seemingly arrogant siblings with amusement.

Xavier noticed Reina smiling without any apparent reason and commented, "Strange idiot." However, he thought, "But why am I even looking at her?"

At dinner, Aaron and Ace Knight joined the rest of them after returning home.

During the meal, Aaron Knight asked, "How are you, Reina? And how was your flight?"

"I'm fine, uncle. The flight was good." Reina replied

Aaron Knight continued, "Your dad and mom informed me that you're here to launch your architecture design company. Have you decided where you will open your company? "

"Yes, uncle. I have searched many places on the internet, and finally, I have found one. But I need to go there to check before finalizing it" Reina shared her progress 

Ace Knight added, "If you have any problems or questions regarding business, you can ask me."

Reina: "Sure. Thank you. "

Mia Knight: Reina, try our traditional hometown food; you will like it.

Reina: "Sure, Aunt. I can smell the spices, I'm sure I'll enjoy it."

Xavier rolled his eyes in annoyance, "Now I can't eat in silence"

The next day, she woke up feeling refreshed and energetic. Glancing at the clock, she noticed it was 6 am.

After getting ready, she headed downstairs to make some coffee.

The living room was quiet, and she found herself alone. She made her way to the kitchen.

After preparing a cup of coffee, she sat down on the chair at the kitchen table.

She sipped her coffee, when her stomach growled, telling her to eat something. Reina decided to whip up some omelets and pancakes.

Since Allen's passing, cooking has become a skill she mastered. Allen used to find joy in cooking, and she learned it for him, to remember him. 

For her, cooking is like spending time in Allen's presence.

The thought of Allen made her eyes fill with tears, but she wiped them away and continued making breakfast.

Reina prepared a delicious spread, including a potato omelet and apple pancakes for everyone.

The house cook entered as Reina worked, surprised to find a ready and delicious breakfast.

Cook: Ma'am, why did you make breakfast? You're a guest here. If you want anything to eat, just let me know.

Reina: No problem. I wanted to cook, so I thought I'd make something. If anyone has a preference for breakfast, feel free to let me know.

Reina told the cook when Mia and Sophia Knight entered the kitchen, surprised to see Reina there.

Mia Knight: You woke up so early, Reina.

Reina: Yes, I have a habit of waking up early.

Sophia Knight: Do you want to eat something? Should I make it for you?

Cook: Madam, Ms. Reina already made breakfast for everyone.

Mia Knight: Reina, why did you make breakfast? You're our guest.

Reina: It's okay, aunt. The weather is great today, so I thought, why not make breakfast for everyone? I'm not sure if you'll like it or not.

Reina hesitated.

Sophia Knight: You're very sweet, Reina. Thank you, but don't do it next time. You're our guest; just enjoy yourself, and let me know whatever you want to eat—I'll make it for you.

Reina smiled and nodded.

Everyone was gathered around the dining table to have breakfast.

Lara: Wow, a German breakfast. Reina, sis, I love you. It looks so yummy...

"Hmm, it tastes so good, sis, I never thought we could make something like this with eggs" Laura commented, who had never eaten any dish of eggs except for boiled eggs

"That's true, Reina, it's so good." Mia Knight praised her 

Reina felt embarrassed as everyone praised her for making the omelet. "It's just a simple breakfast, why exaggerate?" she thought.

Xavier arrived shortly and took a seat to have breakfast.

And as Reina predicted, he made a strange face and said, "I will not eat this. Mom, make me another breakfast. I am getting late."

"But it is so good, just taste it, Reina made it," said Mia Knight, placing the plate towards him.

However, he angrily threw the plate and said, "I'm not eating this weird shit."

Aaron Knight: Don't you have any manners, Xavier?

He said angrily.

Xavier ignored his father and sat with an emotionless face as if Aaron Knight was talking with someone else.

Mia Knight: Calm down, Aaron. I will talk to him later...

She said to her husband and looked apologetically towards Reina. Reina signaled "It's ok" towards Mia Knight with her eyes.

Aaron Knight left angrily from there.

Xavier: It's all because of you.

He said to Reina and left.

After an awkward silence, Mia Knight went toward Reina, who was shocked by his sudden unnecessary anger

"Reina, I am sorry. I don't know why he reacted like this. Usually, Xavier never behaved like this. I don't know what has gotten him so angry. Please don't take his words to heart." Reina looked at the woman in front of her, who was apologizing for her son's behavior. Her cold eyes softened.

Reina smiled at the graceful lady

"It's alright, Aunt. I'm not hurt or angry. Everyone has their preferences and tastes. I shouldn't have made breakfast in the first place." Reina patted her hand and went back to her room.

Lara: What's wrong with brother, why was he so angry? If he behaves like this she will go away" Lara got angry

Laura: Seriously! He just humiliated her" They both grabbed their bags and headed to school.
