Rosarin’s specialty.
Now, this is a long-awaited reunion. I should do my best to be hospitable.
"What would you like to eat? I'll make dinner~ It comes with dessert, too~"
Everyone except Disk-san raised their hands. His wife is heavily pregnant, so he plans to leave before dinner.
"Then I'll wrap up some sweets for you as a gift. Does your wife have a favorite fruit?"
"Sorry to trouble you. My wife loves peaches."
"Then I'll make a peach tart. I'll make it big, so your whole family can enjoy it."
"... You're very accommodating."
I proudly responded to Raglass.
"I won't spare any effort if it means getting to hold your little fluff!"
"You're quite consistent, huh..."
I'm Rosarin, a steadfast woman. Fluffy things are justice!
Disk-san left with the peach tart. It seems it was very well-received, as I later received a thank-you note from his wife. And finally, my wish to hold the little bundle of fluff came true! A baby fluff... a teeny-tiny fluff... so precious!! I feel like I was the one who benefited from this!
But setting that aside, what should I make for dinner? Some people wanted omurice and hamburg steak. Omurice and hamburg steak... if that's the case...
"I've decided on the menu. I'll get started right away!"
With the help of the chefs at the Burton household, we got the prep work done, and dinner was ready!
"This is..."
Hamburg steaks with sausage ears, ketchup faces drawn on them to look like bunny ears, a salad centered around roses made from tomatoes, a giant fried shrimp (technically a fried shrimp soldier monster), and omurice.
This is a Rosarin-special, kid's meal-style dinner.
"It's so cute..."
By the way, each omurice has different drawings on them. Lara-chan’s had a cat, Dirk's had a heart and the word "LOVE," and Dija-san's had a rose.
"Is this harassment?! Why did I get something so intense again? It's hard to eat!"
Raglass' omurice has a realistic Valkyrie drawn on it. I must say, it turned out really well. I'm quite proud of this. It's at a level where even I find it hard to eat.
"Well, the chefs were saying things like 'you're skilled' and 'amazing,' and honestly, I got a bit carried away! I'm sorry!"
I apologized sincerely to Raglass. Then, the twins stopped Raglass as he tried to eat.
"Don't eat it!"
"Don't ruin such an amazing drawing!"
"Is this deja vu?"
This scene seems familiar somehow.
"The same thing happened before. It was back when we were still engaged, and the twins were little."
Dirk said nostalgically, smiling softly. I told them to eat the omurice while it was still warm.
"Then make it something less guilty to destroy next time! I really don't want to ruin such a great Valkyrie!"
Raglass was on the verge of tears. I'm really sorry about that. If there's a next time, I'll draw something simpler.
Everyone ate heartily and seemed to enjoy it. And as always, I'm told I have a small appetite. No, this is normal for a human. From my perspective, your portions are insane! There were enough servings for five people, yet they finished it all in a flash—it's strange! But where does it all go...? It's a mystery.
And for dessert, we had shortcake. The cake had a chocolate plate on top that read, "Happy Birthday, Dija," and it was decorated luxuriously with candy roses.
"I thought today would be considered Dija's birthday. So, I made a celebratory cake."
"Wow..."
"Welcome back, Dija-san. I'm so happy to be able to meet you.”
Originally, we weren't supposed to meet. By the whim of the gods... a gift that allowed us to meet, for which I am grateful.
We all enjoyed the cake together in a cheerful atmosphere.
Since it was late, the younger group headed home, and the adults stayed over. The atmosphere got a bit... cozy with some alcohol.
"Ugh... sniff... I'm so glad, Dija... if you're happy, then I'm..."
"Father, my sister is over there. That's Diesel you're holding."
Grandfather seemed to be thoroughly intoxicated, mistaking Diesel for Dija.
"Father must have been really happy."
"Yes, it's the first time I've seen him so drunk."
"Instead of feeling nostalgic, help me out here!"
As usual, it seems the siblings here have a weak brother. It was amusing, so I observed for a while before helping him.
"... Dija... It feels like a dream... having you here..."
"Dear..."
Let's leave this lovey-dovey couple alone.
"Rosarin..."
"Dirk, I'm so glad. Seeing you happy makes me happy, too."
Dirk seemed a little tipsy, peacefully watching everyone from the balcony. As I approached, he pulled me close and transformed into his beast form.
"It's a bit chilly, you know. This way, it's warm, right?"
"I'm so happy. This is my reward, right? This warm, fluffy fur is the ultimate happiness. And this coat... it's perfect. I love you, Dirk."
He gently stroked my hair as I sighed in bliss.
"Truly... I'm glad I met you. I'm happy every day. It's almost scary. I love you, Rosarin..."
The warmth of his touch, which I'm already used to... still makes me fall in love with him... love him more than ever.
"I'm happy too..."
We kissed and pressed our foreheads together, laughing. Feeling grateful for the miracle of meeting the one and only person for each of us.
"Kyaaa, how romantic!"
"Ah, hey! If you shout like that..."
"”………………””
As we awkwardly looked inside, everyone was staring at us.
"Heyyyyy!!"
The adults ran away, laughing. Dirk, who had recently been calm and cool, now seemed embarrassed and chased everyone around. It was adorable and endearing.
"Hehe."
Rosarin Burton is smiling happily today, thanks to her husband.
