"Guess what is for the breakfast today? it's sandwiches!" A woman's rhythmic voice came from the side of me as she put down three plates on the table. All these plates had two pieces of sandwiches on them as well as sause.
Amelia sat at the chair right next to mine and handed one of the plates to Dofu and me. The sandwiches looked to be well made. my stomach churned just looking at them. Without any delay, I picked up the sandwiche and was about to start eating when my hand was slapped making me drop the sandwiche back on the plate. I looked next to me at Amelia, my look clearly asking her the reason for slapping my hand.
"Before eating food, we should thank God for giving us our meals!" She asked me to put my hands together in a praying position.
I sighed and did what I was asked of, without much complaint. After only ten seconds, the prayer of sort was complete. Though no one among us actually spoke any prayers, we just closed our eyes and stayed in the preying position for less then ten seconds.
We started eating and just after the first bite , I knew that I have never tested any sandwiche this good. but as I enjoyed the aftertaste, some kind of weird test replaced the test of the sandwiche. I frowned as I didn't like the test one bit.
I opened the sandwiche and took out what I thought was ruining the test of the sandwiche, it was brocoli. I wasn't a picky eater but the brocoli in the sandwiche made the actual test of the sandwiche less appetising for me at least.
"What are you doing, Youn Man?" I heard Amelia's voice as soon as I took out the brocoli.
"I didn't like the test of broccoli in the sandwiche." I said while picking the sandwiche up.
"...I didn't know you were a picky eater, Amin. Even if you don't like brocoli, you should still eat them! Sir Dofu, you should also tell Amin to eat his vegetables!" Amelia turned to Dofu.
Unfortunately for Amelia, Dofu couldn't hear her right now. Dofu had his eyes half closed and a slight smile on his face. his mouth slowly chewed on the sandwiche as he enjoyed it to the fullest. He looked like a monk in ecstasy as golden light was shining from his being.
My mouth twitched as I I felt the divine presence around Dofu. Dofu took another bite of the sandwiche and the golden light around him intensified again. His eyebrows rose a little and his mouth formed an 'Ah!' sound. I broke my gaze from him and looked at my side as I felt like Dofu might start moaning any time soon.
At the side of me, Amelia was also looking at Dofu with a stunned expression. Seeing her like that, I thought this as a chance and picked my sandwiche and took a bite.
"Hm~" I sighed at the test. After removing the brocoli, there was no bad test in the sandwiche for me.
"Ah! Amin, eat your vegetables as well!" It seems my sigh broke Amelia out of her daze as she looked at me and said.
"I am not a picky eater, Amelia!" I said and to prove it, I picked up a piece of brocoli and put it in my mouth. I truly wasn't a picky eater before but as soon as I put the brocoli into my mouth, my face contradicted into disgust as I even wished to spit the brocoli out but that would be unsightly.
"Oh my~ and someone says they are not a picky eater." I heard Amelia and couldn't refute her this time.
It seems that I am a picky eater or at least, after I took over this body, now I am a picky eater.
I somehow managed to swallow the brocoli in my mouth but then frowned when I realised there were three more brocoli in my plate...
*Sigh...* I heard a sigh from my side and looked to see Amelia taking the brocoli from my plate.
"Well, at least you tried to eat them..." She said with a smile and seeing her like this made me realise something. I wanted to have someone in my life. someone special, like her, someone, who can take the brocoli out of my plate for me.
Yes! Definately! I should have someone in my life that could take the brocoli out of my plate, like a servant just for brocoli extraction!
I nodded at myself feeling satisfied with my thoughts and smiled as I focused on my breakfast.
The three days that I had to wait before the start of the floor test were filled with a lot of things, mainly Annoyance, to be honest, but I enjoyed these three days with my new housemates quite a bit. watching TV, going out to sighsee and my favourite activity nowadays, eating Amelia's handmade cooking. Well, Most of the time, Amelia forced me to stay with her as she didn't leave me alone for even a second in a day but I still enjoyed being with these two. As I said, the three days, were annoying but fun.
Between us three the most talkative was Amelia. I was mostly silent or I should say that I didn't had much to speak since most of the things I know were about earth and I risk being found out if I started speaking about a different planet.
Dofu was also quiet most of the time. His personality was more or less Extroverted but his mind was mostly always occupied by something which made him speake less. the other day, Dofu was staring at a fly which was flying around in the wild. when I asked what was so special about it, he said that it is fascinating how the fly can change directions so fast. one time it would be going right and just in the blink of second it would change directions and start moving left.
I knew that the reason for its fast change in direction was the weight and size of the fly but I didn't tell him why the fly could change the directions. Because, Dofu wasn't 'curious' about why fly can move like that, no, he was 'Fascinated' by the fly which could move like that. He wasn't seeking answers.
The three days went by in a flash in their company. I couldn't even feel when the morning became the night. and as I got to know them, I also became a bit close to them. Tomorrow was going to be the second floor test but I only felt uncertainty and anxious. before, I was confident in my chances of passing the test and even now I am confident in passing it but I feel anxious for the two people whom I had spent only three days.
I sighed as the cold night Breeze washed over my face from the window. The second floor test is going to be unimaginably dangerous and I know there is only a slim chance for these two to actually make it to the next floor, alive.
*Sigh...* Another sigh escaped my lips. I wouldn't really cry if the two of them died, not yet, but I would still be sad and filled with regret. I know I can save them and if I didn't even at least try to save them, I would regret it deeply. the only thing that really holding me back is the fact about if I could trust them. even though we had spend three days with them, I don't know everything about them. even if I can say that they are not bad people...
Another sigh escaped and....I gave up on thinking about it. I walked up to bed and sat down. No matter how much I was thinking about it, at the end, I always reached the conclusion of wanting to save them. I... wanted to save them no matter what so there was no point in thinking if I can trust them or not. No matter what happens, I will not regret saving them.
I layed on my bed as I thought-
'I would have to talk to them about not taking the test tomorrow, that's the first thing that I have to do...' I closed my eyes and fell asleep.
