When you awoke around seven-thirty, the sky outside the attic window was a golden haze. Sleep had soothed the burning in your eyes, but your mind was still a fog. With a few pops, you stretched your neck and climbed out of bed. As your fingers finished tying the apron’s bow, your empty stomach loosed a low growl.

“Yes, I know,” you replied, patting the irritable organ. “We shall go see Alex about some food.” You gripped the whitewashed railing of the back stairs and descended the passage with caution. Until something was in your stomach, you did not trust your brain to keep you steady.

When you reached the kitchen, the smell of tomato curry filtered through the air. You rapped on the door and the voices inside quieted. Alex peeked through the crack. He scratched his arm and tugged the entrance wide open. “Did you get any sleep?”

“Three hours, perhaps.” Your stomach growled again. You rubbed the back of your neck. “Might I trouble you for a small snack?”

Alex cocked his head towards the stove and walked back into the kitchen. You trailed after the teenager, taking a seat on a tall wooden stool. Cook hummed along as he stirred the pot of simmering vegetables. You folded your hands in your lap, taking care not to touch their workspace. Alex retrieved a small earthen pot. He set it in front of you and handed you a wooden spoon. You lifted the lid. Fresh steam scented with carrots and parsley wafted to your nostrils.

“You made this just for me?” you asked.

“Wasn’t a big deal,” Alex muttered, crossing his arms. “Just didn’t want you throwing up my hard work ‘cause of your sour stomach.”

You took a bite of the rice porridge. The taste of celery, salt, onions, and something buttery made your mouth water. Warmth filled your belly, and not just from the food. You set your spoon down and smiled at the teen. “Alex?”

“Yes?”

“Thank you.”

The undercook turned away, but not fast enough to hide his blush.
