Chapter 579: Terrifying Snowstorm
Yamada Manor, Musdurn Mountain, Torringgar Mountain Range.
06:28 AM, Sunday, January 31st.
The sun still hadn't risen on the horizon, but that was a normal sight for the winter season as the sun would usually rise late in the morning.
The mountain and its surroundings were covered by a new layer of snow. During the night, the snowstorm arrived just like everyone expected.
Strong winds came with the snowstorm that even shook the windows of the house a little bit. But everyone was so tired that they didn't even notice.
The snowstorm lasted until a few minutes past 5:30 AM. Soon after, the sky cleared completely. There was no cloud in the sky anymore.
The people who woke at that time and who saw that predicted that would be a sunny day with clear skies.
But the people who were sleeping at the Yamada Manor were deep in sleep. The first one to stir from his sleep was Theo around 6:30 AM.
He slowly opened his eyes as he tried to understand where he was. It was then that he felt that he was cuddling with someone. He smelled her sweet scent and remembered what happened before they fell asleep.
Theo let out a sleepy smile as he remembered that the two of them were so tired last night that after kissing for a while, both of them fell asleep in each other's arms.
What a bumming ending some people may think, right? However, Theo didn't care much that they didn't have sex.
He was sure that it would happen when both of them were ready.
Plus, he loved cuddling with Ayia, so he had nothing to complain of.
Just like that, Theo cuddled with her for a few minutes longer as he appreciated her warmth and amazing scent.
It was only after he saw what time it was that he decided to get up from the bed, he tried to leave Ayia's embrace without waking her up, but he failed as soon as he removed his arm from around her.
"Theo?" Ayia asked in a sleepy voice.
"Yeah, it's me." Theo replied wrily, "Good morning, babe." He said with a loving voice.
"Good morning!" Ayia replied with a sleepy but yet happy voice.
"What time is it?" she asked.
"I think it's almost 7 AM." He replied, "I was about to get up to get things done."
"I'll help you then." She immediately said.
When Kumiko, Shoko, and Suzuka arrived they soon started helping Theo and Ayia cook the breakfast.
As the group had almost 20 people, they had to cook a lot of things.
The other girls having nothing to do started to arrange the table where they would eat.
With 5 skilled cooks working, the breakfast was made quickly and efficiently.
The delicious breakfast was soon placed on the dining table where it waited for everyone to
eat.
"Where's the others?" Sam asked.
"I asked them to clean the snow for us to leave with the cars." Theo replied, "But I'll call them
now, if they haven't finished yet, we all can help clean the snow after breakfast."
The others agreed, and soon the four snow cleaners arrived at the dining room as well.
"So much snow!"
"How could so much snowfall in just a few hours?"
"..."
The four of them started talking about the accumulated snow as soon as they took their seat.
"Really? Is there that much snow?" June asked as she drank her hot coffee.
"Really! There's at least 1 meter of accumulated snow!" Lauren exclaimed.
The others were immediately shocked when they heard that. The normal height would only be
a few tens of centimeters!
"Last night's snowstorm must have been terrifyingly strong." Kaori commented.
The others readily agreed with her, they were glad that they were protected by the strong
walls of the Ayia's family manor.
Just like that, the group of friends had a lovely breakfast as they discussed their plans for the
day.
