Reminiscence Chapter 5 (Kerrell) Cookies (Part 1)

Just when I was thinking this, Su Cheng said:

"Then - I still have something to do, so I'll take the first step. Let's chat slowly when we have the opportunity later."

"Ah...Okay, goodbye." I waved goodbye to Su Cheng belatedly.

Su Cheng turned around and walked back.

However, after walking a few steps, he suddenly stopped.

"Ah, that's right, there's something I forgot to tell you."

Su Cheng turned around and looked at me with a smile.

"I originally wanted to tell you this when I first met you a week ago."

"But there were others around at that time. In order not to cause unnecessary rumors and controversy, I refrained from telling you."

Su Cheng raised his right hand and spread his thumb and index finger widely.

"You look so cute."

"When I first saw you, my heart beat a little faster."

"Probably sped up this much."

After saying that, Su Cheng raised the widely spread thumb and index finger of his right hand.

To be precise, he raised the distance between his thumb and index finger, which were widely spread apart.

After saying these words, Su Cheng said no more and turned to leave without looking back.

I was left standing there with a red face.

Since I was little, I have heard countless people say that I am cute.

There are elders, peers, juniors, men and women.

But this was the first time my heart beat faster after hearing someone call me cute.

For the first time, I was happy to be praised as cute.

…

…

Half a month later——

"good,

That should do the trick. "

I looked at the pieces of biscuits spread out on the table with a satisfied and proud smile.

I finally borrowed a kitchen in the mansion today.

Since my stay at Mr. Falk's house, I have never had an opportunity to display my most prized and best skill.

Now that I had finally borrowed a kitchen in the mansion, I decided to make some of my best biscuits and treat Harriet and the other three to them.

During the time I stayed at Mr. Falk's mansion, I really received a lot of help from Harriet and the others.

Without them, I really wouldn't have been able to adapt to life here so quickly.

With gratitude, I made a bunch of cookies, ready to let Harriet and the others have a taste of my craftsmanship.

I put all these freshly baked cookies into the basket and walked briskly towards Harriet's room.

Harriet's room was far away from my room, so it took me more than 10 minutes to finally reach the door of Harriet's room.

I was just about to knock on the door of Harriet's room when Harriet...no, it should be said that it was the voices of Harriet and her two other friends, Gemma and Jennifer.

The sound insulation of the room is actually pretty good.

But perhaps because they were too involved in chatting, the three of them chatted loudly.

Even standing outside the door, I could barely hear their conversation.

"That Carol's accent is really strong."

I heard Harriet's voice—she was talking about me.

Strictly speaking, it was talking about my accent.

As soon as Harriet finished speaking, Gemma and Jennifer immediately answered:

"Yes, yes, sometimes I really can't hear what she is saying."

"Ugh~ Her accent is really terrible!"

"I really want to scold Carol in person and let her learn to speak before she can communicate with others properly."

"I also have this idea, but if I say this to her face to face, it may hurt her heart, so I have resisted saying it."

"It must be very painful for those who chatted with Kellor."

…

Their conversation centered on my accent continued.

But I couldn't listen to it anymore.

I don't remember how or when I left Harriet's door.

The whole person was in a trance.

All I remember is that I was sad…

So sad that I want to cry...

…

…

When I came to my senses, I was holding the basket full of biscuits in my arms and walked to a place in the mansion that few people passed by.

It was only then that I realized that my legs were starting to get sore.

I don't even know how long I walked in this trance.

I sighed deeply, then walked to the wall next to me, hugged the basket in my arms tightly, and leaned against the wall.

Relax your legs and let your upper body slowly fall against the wall until your buttocks touch the cold floor.

How to deal with so many cookies...

If I eat it alone, I will definitely not be able to finish it.

I’m not willing to just throw away the cookies I’ve worked so hard to bake.

I need to find some people to help me get rid of these cookies.

For some reason, two faces suddenly appeared in my mind.

One is Alan's face.

Since the banquet half a month ago, Alan and I have become acquaintances. In the past half month, we have been getting together from time to time.

The other face...is Su Cheng's face.

Unlike Alan - I have never seen Su Cheng again since the banquet half a month ago.

I don’t know if it’s because our work and rest schedules, time for outdoor activities are staggered, or some other reason.

In short, after saying those words that made me blush until midnight, Su Cheng never appeared in front of me again.

After staying at Mr. Falk's residence, I only met Su Cheng twice.

But for some reason, when I was hoping someone could help me get rid of these cookies, I thought of Su Cheng's face.

…

…

"What are you doing here?"

A male voice suddenly sounded above me.

As soon as the male voice finished speaking, I was upset and subconsciously replied in a very unhappy tone:

"leave me alone!"

But who would have thought that as soon as I finished speaking, this male voice sounded again:

"Leave you alone... This kind of thing may be very difficult for me. After all, I can't just sit back and watch you look distressed right now."

It wasn't until then that I realized - this voice was so familiar.

My head shot up.

The first thing that caught his eye was a pair of smiling black eyes.

"Makoto?"

"Yes." The young man standing in front of me, Su Cheng, nodded, "It's me, why are you squatting in front of my door."

"In front of your room?"

Su Cheng's words stunned me.

Su Cheng also pointed at a door not far away at this time.

"That's my room."

"As soon as I went out, I saw you sitting at the wall with a sad face. It really scared me."

Wandering aimlessly, I was able to reach the door of Su Cheng's room - this was something I never expected.

Su Cheng leaned down and sat next to me, so that his eyes were level with mine.

"Did you encounter anything troublesome?"

Su Cheng asked me.

"If you encounter any troubles, you can tell me."
