Chapter 664: Family Drama
The Incubus System Chapter 654. Family Drama
The pain in my heart was unbearable as I felt Celia's heartache, and it felt like it was stabbing at me with every sob she released. It was as if my own heart was breaking right alongside hers. I could feel the turmoil inside of me and the sadness in the air was palpable. None of my pets made a sound, as if they too were feeling the sorrow in the room.
As Celia's sobs slowly began to dissipate, I knew that she was starting to calm down. I held her tightly, wanting to take away all of her pain. But eventually, she released my hug and turned to me. Her eyes were red and puffy, but there was a determination in her gaze.
"I want to go back to my room and calm myself down," she said, wiping away her tears.
I nodded, understanding her need for space. "Take all the time you need," I said, giving her a small smile.
Then she left.
I watched her go, feeling a mix of sadness and pride. I knew that she was strong, and she would come out of this okay. I just needed to be there for her, to support her through this difficult time.
"Master... can we help you to cook?" asked Foxy, who was behind me. Her voice sounded melancholy.
"Yeah. We promise we will be useful to you," added Red with the same tone. I was sure they were trying to cheer me up.
"Sure," I answered. Then I turned to them and forced a smile. "Let's make a nice breakfast!" I tried to be positive.
I headed to the kitchen, my pets, and Foxy following close behind. I hoped I would be able to make something delicious for Celia, despite not being the best cook.
Though with my sour mood, I began to gather the ingredients I would need for breakfast. I grabbed a pan and placed it on the stove, turning up the heat. I then took out the eggs, bacon, and bread, laying them on the counter. With my pets by my side, I started to cook. I put the bacon, cooking it to a crispy golden brown.
"Red, can you give me a hand with the bacon?" I asked as the dog wagged his tail eagerly.
"Of course! I'm always happy to help," Red replied, as he took the spatula with his mouth and started to stir the bacon to make sure they were cooked evenly.
"Thanks, buddy," I said, patting Red on the head. "Now, let's see what Rave and Buni can do."
Foxy and Buni hopped over to the toaster, eager to help.
"So, what are we making?" Foxy asked as she leaned against the counter.
That sentence made her lower her eating utensils and looked at me with a melancholic look. "Thank you... You're always there for me," Celia replied, as she leaned into my embrace. "I don't know what I'd do without you."
As we sat there, holding each other, I felt a sense of peace wash over me. Despite all the turmoil and uncertainty in our lives, I knew that as long as we had each other, we could get through anything.
After a few moments, I stood up from the bed. "Finish your breakfast, I will be down in the dining room," I said, deciding to announce that I also wanted to eat my breakfast in case she wanted to join me if she wanted to.
But she only answered me with a nod. "I will bring the dishes down the stairs after I finish," she said, indicating that she didn't have any intention to join me.
I left her room followed by my pets. Only Foxy accompanied her.
Once we walked down the stairs, my pet spoke, "Don't worry, Your Highness," Rave said, as he perched on my shoulder. "She'll be okay."
"Yeah, she's a strong woman," Red added.
"I know..." I answered in a gloomy tone. It was different from my previous tone.
Despite their words of encouragement, I couldn't shake the feeling of unease that had settled in the pit of my stomach. I knew that the news about my mother had shaken Celia to her core, and I didn't know how to make her better.
'Just concentrate on what's ahead, Ethan... As long she has you, she will be fine...'
