Chapter 112: Afternoon Tea (2)

Soon Allynna and Xavier were sitting in the white gazebo near the lake. They sat facing the blue lake, and between them was a round table filled with tea, cake, and fresh fruits.

"Brother Xavier, what tea would you like to drink?" Allynna asked while looking at Xavier.

"How about you, Sister Ally? What kind of tea is your favorite?" Xavier didn’t answer her right away. Instead, he wanted to know his sister’s taste.

"I like earl grey tea," Allynna said and started to make tea for herself.

"Wow! We have the same taste. Can you make it for me too, please...?" He smiled while trying to hold his happiness. Allynna raises her head to see him in surprise.

"Really, you also like that?"

"Yeah! And, this is the present I want to give you." Suddenly a blueberry cheesecake appears on the table. Allynna was stunned when she saw the cake.

"Brother... this?"

"Your late birthday cake...." Xavier said.

Allynna felt so touched when she heard that, "B-Brother Xavier, my birthday was over a few weeks ago. Why bother making a cake for me?" Allynna said while looking him in the eyes.

Xavier slightly smiled when he saw her expression. She looks adorable when her eyelashes flutter, and her eyes shine looking at him. Then he said, "Sister Ally, I didn’t make this cake alone, but I bought it. On my way, after returning from the Palace, I saw the cake shop and remembered that last month was your birthday. So, I stopped at the cake shop and bought this cake for you..." He lied.

Actually, Xavier forced his mother to make this cake. Because, on every birthday of his brother Anders, his mother always bakes the exact cake for his lost sister Alysha. And now, after he found her, he wanted to give her a birthday cake that his mother makes every year for her, but she never ate it.

"Thank you, brother Xavier. How did you know that I like blueberry cheesecake?" Her eyes lit up with joy when she saw the cake. Xavier is stunned when he hears that.

"Really?" Xavier asked. Too shocked, his voice rose. Allynna was slightly surprised to look at his reaction. She chuckled silently.

"Yes, Brother, I like it. Because my mother always makes it for me." Allynna said casually, but Xavier’s heart instantly felt numb. How can this be a coincidence?

Allynna didn’t notice the change in Xavier’s face, which turned pale with amazement in his eyes, staring at her intently.

She was already immersed with the tea-making stuff in front of her. Skillfully, she began to make her favorite tea, earl grey tea. After making tea for both of them, she cut the cake brought by Xavier and gave one slice to him and to herself.

"Try my tea, brother. I hope the tea suits your taste..." Her eyes sparkled with excitement, waiting for Xavier’s opinion. So far, she only made tea for herself and Leon, and Leon always praised her tea as the best tea he ever drank.

Xavier immediately took the white teacup with floral print. He closed his eyes as he inhaled the calming aroma of the tea. Xavier is smiling while looking her in the eyes. It is as if he wants to tell her that the tea she makes is very fragrant. Then slowly he drinks the tea, he feels a mix emotion now, between sad and happy...

"Sister Ally, this is the best tea I ever drink...." He praised her sincerely. Seeing how gracefully she made tea made him tear up. Her foster parents teach her so well.

Allynna’s smile grew wider when she heard Xavier complemented. As she expected, Xavier liked her tea, and what surprised her was his reaction, which was very similar to what Leon had said.

She ignored Xavier’s compliments and drank her own tea.

"Wow! This blueberry cheesecake is heavenly delicious... This is slightly better than what I’ve ever made..." Allynna looked at Xavier with shocked eyes. "Brother, could you introduce me to the baker who makes this cake? I wanted to ask him for some tips...." She asked.

So far, she has made Blueberry cheesecake from her mother’s recipe. Still, the cake’s taste differed from what her mother ever made. So she never gave her cake to someone.

Xavier was stunned to see his sister enjoying the cake. It gave him heartache. He feels sorry for his little sister because she has never tasted delicious food and cake made by their mother. Then when he heard his little sister wanted to bake the cake, he was stunned.

Can she bake either?

"Sister Ally, you can bake?"

Allynna immediately nods before saying, "Yes, I can. My friend said I am very talented in cooking and baking. Well, actually, I just discovered this hobby after my parents died...." Allynna said, but she fell silent a second later, remembering her late parents. While Xavier froze still, realizing that he had made a stupid mistake. He has made her remember her late adoptive parents.

Instantly he felt his heart tighten when he saw the look on her face. She looked so gloomy, and her eyes seemed slightly red, "Sister Ally, I’m really sorry if I made you sad...."

She could hear a soft chuckle from her mouth before saying, "Brother Xavier, I’m fine...." She forces herself to smile, worried Xavier would feel sorry for her. She continued her words, "Actually, I’ve been stronger since I met His Highness. He always accompanied me when I was going through my sad times. Now, I can accept the reality that my parents are leaving me behind...." She awkwardly smiled while hiding her eyes that suddenly felt hurt.

Xavier didn’t know what to say. He was just silent while enjoying the scenery in front of him. He didn’t want to repeat something, worried his little sister would be sadder.

"Allynna, I thought you would have a tea party with your friends!?" Suddenly Leon’s voice came from behind. It made Allynna and Xavier, who were silent while looking at the lake, startled.
