My School Days Were Full Of Enemies!
Chapter 53. Dinner

...*** Howard Family Home ***...

Christ was preparing dinner for the entire Howard family, who had occupied their respective dining table chairs. So many luxurious foods are served Christ, to the dining table formed of crystal glass, as well as some mixture of precious metals in it.

After preparing everything, Christ joined, then took the seat next to Martina, who was also opposite Tony and Laura. Martin, meanwhile, sat on the other side of the dining table opposite Megan and Sarah.

"Please say your prayers, before you eat first" cried Tony as he blinked his eyes for a moment.

After praying a meal, they waited for Tony to taste one of the foods he liked, before each of the family members, also ate the food that looks delicious and luxurious.

Tony is very fond of food made by Christ, both of whom are professional chefs. So did all the other members, including Jansen and his small family, during a visit to the Howard family home.

The rules of eating in the family are, it is forbidden to talk while eating, also eating should not be more than ten minutes. Tony took his military rule and made it a Howard family tradition for many years.

Eight minutes passed. All the family members have finished their dinner activities. Tony then opens up the opportunity for himself and the rest of the family to talk. "Martin, what about your school?" tony asked while lighting a cigar, with his expensive lighter.

"Currently there are no obstacles, Cake," replied Martin who sat upright on the chair, while looking at Tony.

"Good! Megan, Sarah, what about your school?" ask Tony who burned his cigar again, with a lighter, and then exhaled the smoke that came out of his mouth, to the ceiling of the room.

Megan and Sarah stood up. "Currently, no constraints, Cake!" answer them in unison.

"Haha! Goody! That's just my favorite princess' grandkids! Sit down, sit down" praised Tony, smiling.

The two princess grandchildren who had amazed him were also, again occupying their respective seats. Tony then looked at Laura, who was still showing a look of annoyance. "Laura, aren't you excited today?" tony asked his wife.

Laura turned her face the other way. "How can I be excited, while my late daughter Angelina is already in someone else's power" Laura grumbled, tapping her finger bone, onto the table

"Go to the room first, and rest. Tomorrow morning, we'll go back to the house." - Tony sucked a cigar - "Huuuftt .. If the Helsink family won't give up Angelina's body, then they have to give up Roman," Tony said, while staring intently at the frame of the painting that hangs over the wall of the room.

Laura stood up from her chair. "I don't care about that kid! All I want is for my daughter's body to be buried, behind this house!" snapping Laura who then passed left the dining room.

Tony scissors the tip of his cigar over the ashtray. He got out of the chair and rushed to the top floor. I'm sure the boy must have been gifted, his inner self as he walked up to the second floor connecting staircase.

...*** Helsink Family Home ***...

Valerie and Rika have finished their evening shower. They then rushed towards the dining room, with Valerie first opening the dining room door. "Valentine, is the porridge still there?" ask Valerie from behind the door.

"none. I just made it for Roman," replied Valentine as he thrust his last spoonful of feed, toward Roman's mouth.

Valerie was silent with a grimacing face. Aaaaa .. My sister loves her boyfriend more than I do, she thought. He then returned the look of his face as before, turning to Rika, who had been standing next to him. "Rika, help me cook dinner today" Valerie exclaimed.

"B-good brother!" Rika then walked a little further ahead of Valerie. "Valentines! I'm gonna take Valerie's sister from you!" gerta Rica with a grinning face, while shaking her waist in front of the dining table.

Seeing Valentine's treatment, made Rika become anxious. His teeth were bluffing repeatedly, with the look of a face staring back at Valentine. "Hhhhhh!!!" Rika turned her face the other way, then turned around and walked towards Valerie. "Come brother!" he said while pulling Valerie's hand.

They finally moved to the kitchen, which was located behind the dining room. Valerie opened the middle refrigerator door, then took out a piece of turkey chicken meat that had been seasoned with spices. "Rika, can you cut vegetables?" valerie asked while carrying the chicken plate, towards the oven machine located on the kitchen cabinet table.

"Yes, I'll be happy to help Valerie" Rika opened the lower refrigerator door. "What fantasy do I have to cut my sister?" rika asked with a bow, while staring at the basement in the refrigerator.

"Hmm .. carrots, broccoli, potatoes, tomatoes, and chickpeas. Wash it first" Valerie said.

"All right." Rika then took out the vegetables that Valerie had mentioned, then carried them towards the kitchen-room sink. "Basic Valentine! We should eat together! He was even concerned about Roman," Rika murmured while opening the sink faucet, then washing all the vegetables.

Valerie was only pensive as she stood in front of the oven table. I am grateful, Roman already considers this house like his own home, he thought as he stared at the piece of chicken he had put in the oven.

After washing all the vegetables, Rika then moved the vegetables, and put them on a placemat. "Roman is the same! Not evasive, just shut up! Is he Valentine's son?!" rika muttered while taking a knife from his place.

Valentine was still standing, while waiting for the color of the chicken meat of his choice, turned brownish. He set the oven duration to twenty minutes. I didn't even expect, Valentine was already adept at making porridge, his mind while shaking his waist with one hand.

"Roman, Roman, and Roman. Only that name was on his mind!" rika murmured while cutting all vegetables one by one, into small parts.

Valentine had tidied up the entire kitchen space, after cooking porridge for Roman. I became a little proud of her progress, Valerie thought as she glanced right left at the entire kitchen area.

After cutting the entire vegetable into small pieces, Rika took out a pot of soup and placed it on an electric stove. He then filled the water into the pot, and put the vegetables he had cut into the pot made of stainless steel.

Do not forget about a few spoons of chicken broth, which also put it in the pot. Rika apparently intends to cook the soup in her own way, which makes Valerie was stunned.

"Rikaaaa, I'm just telling you to cut vegetables!" reprimand Valerie when she finds Rika beyond her command.

Rika then turned her head towards Valerie, while sticking her index finger into her mouth. "Ssssttt!! .. I don't want to lose to Valentine. Valerie's sister was quite quiet, and watch," Rika said and again shifted her attention to the soup pot.

Valerie walked over to Rika, who was stirring up the contents of the pot. "Hmm ... aromasaa... Since when are you good at cooking, Rika?" valerie asked as she continued to inhale the delicious aroma, from the soup made by Rika.

"Hehe! Don't underestimate my cooking skills! I had been imitating my mother's cooking style since childhood" Rika replied confidently.

A little while later, Valerie walked over with a large plate of whole chicken meat she had roasted in the oven, towards the dining room. They have to eat a lot! Valentine hasn't eaten at all! In fact, a bowl of porridge would not be enough to fill Roman's stomach, he thought as he opened the dining room door.

Rika then followed Valerie's arrival, carrying a large bowl of soup, to the dining room. Just look! Brother Valerie and Roman must really like this soup of mine! And our score, 1-1! inner Rica while walking through the dining room door that was wide open.

Valentine and Roman were instantly stunned, as they stared at each of the food that Valerie and Rika had made. They ended up eating the whole meal together.
