Chapter 31: Uninvited Guest

Desmond arrived in the kitchen; he sees lots of ice cream with irregular shapes lined up and standing on the dining table.

Seeing this, Desmond became speechless. Looking at the ice cream shape, his appetite begins to disappear.

Alice, who heard the door open, immediately turn and looks at Desmond. "Hey Desmond, I've made it. Give it a try!"

Desmond then looks at one of the ice creams on the table. "I'd better pretend to eat." Desmond peeks at Alice only to sees Alice staring at him with starry eyes.

Pray to God. I hope not dead today.

Without taking a bite, Desmond swallowed the entire ice cream. Then he put the empty plate on the table.

"This is delicious, sis," Desmond replied with a bright smile while given Alice a thumbs up.

Even though Alice felt irritated when she saw Desmond swallowed the Ice cream straight away without even tasted it, her mood changed when Desmond said her ice cream was very delicious.

Alice nods. "Good, I'll make more." She immediately turns around and continues making more ice cream.

Desmond then saw the servant who taught Alice, tries the ice cream. One second… two seconds after a few seconds, the servant then opens his mouth. "um ... young miss, actually this ice cream needs a little change."

Alice, who heard this, immediately stopped her action. She looks at the servant strangely. "Little change? Didn't my brother say it was delicious? Do you want to say that my brother lied to me? "

Although Alice's tone seemed to be questioning, it was obvious that she was very annoyed. The servant then glances at Desmond.

Desmond understand this and steps forward to defend the servant.

* ehm *

"Sis, I did say that it was delicious. Even though it was delicious, every suggestion is precious."

Now the servant looks at Desmond strangely.

Why can't young master say honestly? This Ice cream tastes like shit.

When Alice heard Desmond's words, her eyes became more and more sparkle. She tightly grasps the servant's hand as she looks at the servant with awe. "Okay, tell me your advice,"

After Alice got busy with the servant, Desmond went to upstairs and head straight to the bathroom without wasting any time.

Inside the bathroom, Desmond pukes up all the contents of the ice cream he ate. "That's dangerous. What other reason should I say to Alice if she told me to eat?" Thinking about it for a moment, Desmond decides to take a shower first.

…

After exiting the bathroom, Desmond goes into his room to change his clothes before returning to the dining room.

When Desmond arrives, he sees Alice is in the finishing stage. "It's done, sis?" Desmond asked with a voice trembled. He fears the ice cream taste.

Alice, who heard Desmond's voice, replies excitedly without turn around. "It will be over in a few seconds. Just wait at the table."

Desmond then glances at the servant beside Alice; The servant smiled as she waves a hand, which meant 'It's fine.'Then he sits down waiting for the ice cream.

Okay, I hope this time the ice cream taste isn't worse than the previous one.

…

Desmond sees Alice arrived while carrying a covered plate with a smile broadly after waiting for about five minutes.

"Here is it, Desmond." Alice then put the plate in front of Desmond. Then she takes a chair and sits beside Desmond.

Before Desmond eat it, he confirms it again by stares at the servant, the servant replies with the same gesture.

* exhale * Looking at the covered plate, Desmond sees Alice orders the servant to open it.

When the plate is unraveled, Desmond saw ice cream, like a normal cream shaped like a melted mountain. Sprinkled with some grated chocolate; also, the cream has mint daunts on the mountain's top.

Taking a deep breath, Desmond then takes a spoon and scoops out one of the outermost pieces of cream. Before he put his mouth in, Desmond peeks at Alice.

Oh my god, from her expression, this is definitely her best creation.

This time Desmond devours it slowly tries to show that he enjoying Alice's ice cream.

Desmond seems to have frozen after eaten the cream. His eyes didn't blink, and his expression looked like he was in shock.

After a few seconds of waiting, Desmond's lips slowly move. "It's really delicious, sister!" He eats it again until all the ice cream was gone. This time Desmond acted from his conscience. He also ate this ice cream with a satisfied expression.

When Alice saw and heard this, she became dumbfounded for a moment. A wide smile spreads across her face.

"Of course, it is created by me," Alice said proudly.

Desmond didn't correct it because this ice cream was really delicious, or maybe he had never eaten ice cream in his world before.

* knock * * knock *

When they still chit-chat, they hear the sound of people knocking on the main door.

Desmond's house rarely has guests visiting, or since Leona and Bastian went out, this sudden arrival makes him frown.

Desmond then looks at the servant seriously. The servant also understands and moves to the door to open intends to become a shield for Desmond and Alice.

"Alice, get ready." When Alice heard Desmond's tone, she begins to prepare her spell.

Since the previous incident, Alice became more mature. She wouldn't panic and cry anymore like before.

…

The servant then arrives at the door. The servant did not immediately open the door but asks first. "umm...Hello, who is this?"

"It's us."

When the servant heard a familiar voice, she feels happy and stares at Desmond.

Desmond also heard a voice that he had not heard in a long time. He nods but remains on alert.

The door then opens, reveals a pair of men and women carrying lots of bags. When Alice saw this, she immediately runs and hugs the man.

"I miss you so much, father, mother."

Desmond, who saw this, only follows Alice from behind before hugged by Leona.

"Ah, my baby boy, how are you all?"

Bastian and Leona smiled very broadly when they saw Desmond and Alice's condition fine and could still smile after that incident.
