Ch: 28 [Are they Nymphomaniac?]
My family was stunned when they saw Natasha with me, especially Jenny. She was so happy that she jumped into my arms, thanking me. Mom welcomed Natasha inside. Meanwhile, Jen rushed into her room and returned with a brand new school bag, which she asked Natasha to sign. She must have bought the bag today.
Everyone looks happy today. I am so glad that things are changing for the better. I can see that mom isn't upset anymore. And Jen- she is high on the moon. Haha. As for Natasha, she looks happy. I can see the occasional warm smile forming on her lips while conversing with mom and sis.
The life of a spy must have taken a toll on her life. And I don't know if that retirement thing was true or just a ruse to keep an eye on me. Well, whatever the case, let's live in the moment rather than thinking about what if.
"By the way, what did Jen awaken?" I asked mom. I am quite curious to know about the powers that make her eyes glow blue.
"Curious, aren't you? Well, that's a surprise. I will tell you only if you don't spoil tonight's dinner. I know you can't cook," Jenny scoffed.
"Ohohoho! So many people will be disappointed today. Just wait till you taste the food." I left them in the living room and went to clean up. I will show them...
I have to get ready to get in the mood. I am the cook, after all. I heard somewhere that women like men who can cook for them. I don't know how true those words are... I will figure it out soon enough. If I manage to impress Natasha with my cooking, she might... You know, stay the night.
Don't say anything. A man can dream, and luckily, my dreams are coming true. Maybe I will get lucky tonight. So joke on you, author. [Ignore this man]
Oh! I almost forgot it's time to strengthen my body with Q&Q. It's kinda hectic to do it manually every time. I forget all the time.
'Hey, System, can you auto-activate Q&Q whenever it's available to strengthen my body?' I ask the System.
Phew! The cold water feels comforting. It's been a heck of a day today.
*****
[I have been auto-activating Q&Q all this time. But you ordered me not to use power without your permission.]
*****
'Wait! You have been using Q&Q on me all this time. Then why did my backbone shatter at the mall?' I inquired.
*****
[You can not use Q&Q to aggressively increase your muscles. It's reckless. Your body will get stronger. But your daily life... It will become difficult for you to walk around with a body brimming with immense strength you can't control. You must take it slow and get used to your newly enhanced muscles. Maybe hit the gym or a training center.
Alright, time to cook. Humm. What should I start with? Let's see what mom bought.
Okay, shrimp, bacon, ribeyes, eggs... Veggies... Red wine and Coke... Alright, I can cook some bacon-wrapped shrimp for the starter. And medium-rare steaks for the main course. What to do for dessert? I know how to make lemon pie... Let's go with that...
*****
[Do you need help?]
*****
"I want to do it myself. At least I will try," I replied. Time to open the recipe on my phone and follow it thoroughly...
I took the ingredients and divided them into three parts. First, the starters...
...
...
"Ohohoho!!! This aroma of my Lemon Meringue Pie. I can't imagine I made that just following the recipe. Huh?" As I was praising myself for doing a good job, my eyes shifted toward the kitchen's entrance. Three curious women peeking their heads out. Even Natasha... Seesh! My arms are aching...
Haha! I can't cook... Hell! I can cook! How did I do it without the System's help? As long as the food tastes as good as it smells, I will be satisfied.
"Jen, help me serve..."
