Chapter 15: Mr. Dragon Debuts as Her Daddy

There was a really pleasant breeze the next morning. For breakfast, I made walnut bread toast with plenty of butter and honey. Plus, I tossed a wild greens salad with lots of nut oil and sprinkled some salt on top. Oh, I also made a clear soup on the side, and the onions and sausage stock I used imparted their flavor in spades.

“Tee hee! This is so your go-to breakfast, Daddy!”

“You’re right, honey; it’s pretty much our standard.”

Walnut bread, wild greens salad, and soup. Our prototypical breakfast. Basically every parenting book urges its readers not to skip breakfast, so I promptly implemented it when we started living together. Since it’s an every-morning thing, I figured simple was best, so I devised this menu. Besides, I like wild greens.

“You have this every day?”

“Do you have a usual meal at your house, Daisy?”

“Well, in my house, the bill of fare changes when the head chef does. For the most part, I only get to eat with my father or mother at dinner banquets or social functions. Eating breakfast with family like this never even crossed my mind.”

“I see.”

Little by little, Daisy shared her thoughts with us. Most of the students at the academy were the children of venerable mages or nobility or the like, and the vast majority of them had no custom of crowding in large numbers around a single table. She related how bewildered she was when she ate with others for the first time upon entering the dorms, how surprised she was when Olivia spoke happily of the meals her Daddy made her—and how envious of her she grew.

“I asked a huge favor, coming here to sleep over. I’ve never slept over at a friend’s house before... So, that’s why...”

“Hee hee! Daisy, this is the first time I’ve ever had a friend come home to see me too! So...”

Olivia and Daisy exchanged glances. Then, their matching smiles were as dazzling as the morning sun.

“This was so much fun!”

“I had a truly fun time!”

“Is that so? Well, this old man had a great time too.” I felt so warm and fuzzy inside.

Later, Miss Clowria brought out the Dark Queen...or rather, our home’s “landlady.” She apologized for the incident in the library. She looked so dejected. Maybe I’ll make her some super sweet tea later. But seeing Daisy off comes first.

We decided that Olivia would accompany her to the other side of the woods. The forests of the Sacred Peak are thick, but Olivia was used to walking through them so the two girls would be safe. Not once has Olivia ever gotten lost amidst the trees.

“You’re welcome to stay for more days, you know,” I told Daisy, who was holding her travel bag with both hands.

She shook her head. “Thank you, but I was only able to delay my return home by telling the people back home that I wished to hit the books at an academy study room for a day... To tell the truth, my parents don’t know about my sleeping over at Olivia’s.
