Number One Chef In The Intergalactic Era

Chapter 20

Bella was tired by the time she came back home. Well, it can't be blamed to her. This body of her is too weak to stand a simple task as shopping. If it was her previous life, she would have keep shopping continuously without any break and wouldn't even drop a sweat. But now, she can't stand few hours of shopping even though she has just been standing. She was so tired that she had to lean on her parents to just stand. Her father offered her to carry her but Bella shot him down with a shaking head. She might be a little girl in her parent's eyes but in reality, she isn't. Even though she is shorter than many girls of her age, she still is a grown up girl. At least mentally. It's okay if they carry her when they are home, when there's no outsider and it's less embarrassing. But she can't let her father carry her in front of so many people. It's simply embarrassing.

Though she was still curious about the outside world, she couldn't enjoy the afternoon scenery of the city because of her tiredness. Her eyes was almost closing itself, as it has mind of it's own and is refusing to open. She was almost buried in her father's arm. From time to time her parents would point in different things that she never saw to keep herself from sleeping. Bella would also play along with them and look where they pointed to stay awake. Though, she wouldn't be able to see them properly because of her haziness. But it at least permits her to enter some light in her iris to keep her eyes open. But that little consciousness sweeps away once they enters their apartment building. She couldn't understand why she can't control this body of hers when she is tired. No matter how hard she struggles to stay awake and tries to push herself, she just couldn't. Her mind would just automatically shut itself and refuse to listen her commands. Her body would also shut itself down and lead her to complete unconsciousness. Her sleep would also be very deep. She won't even squint her eyes if someone moves her let alone woke up. She will simply be a sleeping beauty.

Brandon chuckles seeing his daughter leaning on him completey and her body relaxing. He looks at her face to see if she has closed her eyes or not before scooping her in his arms. Her little head resting on his chest as her hand dangles at his every step. Light breathing comes from her mouth everytime she breaths causing the hair's in her face to tremble slightly. She is already deep in sleep, without any care where she is or who is holding her. He couldn't help but sigh. His daughter is too naive and trusting for her own good.

Beth saw how her daughter's hand dangling in the air and simple puts it on the sleeping girl's lap. She sweeps the hair on her daughter's face gently and smiles. Their cute bunny is very tired. Though she is worried because Bella hadn't had her dinner. They had taken some nutrition liquid in between their shopping spree, much to the younger girl's displeasure. The nutrition liquid is enough for the day and Bella wouldn't feel hungry, but she still wishes that it would have been better if she had something before sleeping. Her daughter needs nutrition most because she is weak. Only after having ample amount of nutrition would she be able to do anything to her heart's desire.

It doesn't takes them long to reach their apartment. No one could tell that they has gone to shopping since there's no shopping bags in any of there's hand. Because all of them has been delivered to them after buying. Bella couldn't see the pile up bags in the living room since she is sleeping, otherwise she would have been quite surprised. Her parents on the other hand simply went to her room to lie her down on the mattress. Both of them left the room after kissing her on the forehead and whispering good night.

The brothers came short after. They look extremely tired. But they still put on a facade of enthusiasm and asked their parents about their sister's first experience of going out and shopping. The parents also enthusiastically says every little details, even the expression on her face when she saw something for the first time, the curiosity in her eyes and the way she questioned them about everything. They also shows them the pictures they have taken in the shopping mall when Bella was trying different dresses. The brothers couldn't help but exclaims praises at every picture. Their sister looks very beautiful. No matter how simple or gorgeous the dress was, her beauty didn't flatted even a little. Her beauty represents itself in different aspects in different dress. They are just awestruck at the display of her beauty.
