Tomorrow arrived faster than expected after taking a break.
The quiet glow of morning filled the mansion's halls as he moved about the kitchen, preparing breakfast for himself and the two girls.
It was nothing complicated, just an omelet and bacon on the side, but he preferred it simple.
By the time the food was ready, both Seraphine and Belle had already made their way downstairs.
"Wow, you were lying when you said your cooking was average," Belle said, eyes sparkling as she took a bite. "I could eat this forever!"
"I do agree that it is quite tasty," Seraphine added with her usual gentle smile.
Sam tilted his head, a faint look of confusion flickering across his face.
He really didn't understand what they found so amazing about it — it was just an omelet.
Still, he didn't comment further.
Instead, he took his seat, quietly eating alongside them while his thoughts drifted elsewhere.
The peace of this morning felt distant from what awaited him outside.
