Avery shook her head. "He said that he went to see a friend. He will return home once he is done."
"Why didn’t he take you along?" Adrian asked in confusion.
"Maybe his friend only wants to see him, but not me," Avery replied casually. "Are you hungry? I'm a little hungry. If you're hungry, then I'll go make something to eat."
"What are you planning to cook?" Adrian was a little hungry, so he got up.
They headed to the kitchen.
They made too much ravioli that morning so there was excess.
"Let's cook ravioli!" Avery took them out from the fridge.
"Okay! I like ravioli.” "Is there anything that you don't like to eat? " Avery asked with a smile.
Avery would naturally relax when chatting with Adrian.
"I don't like bitter squash." Adrian grimaced. "Bitter squash is really bitter, but Mrs. Scarlet likes them."
"I don't like them either, but bitter squash is good stuff," Avery said. "But if you really don't like them, you don’t have to eat them."
"Hmm. Can I try cooking? I want to give it a go." Adrian had never cooked anything before.
"Okay! I’ll teach you." Avery moved aside a little. "We'll first turn on the stove. You press this switch before turning the knob. No. We should use a clean pot and fetch a
suitable amount of water. Maybe until this line here. Once you have the water, we place the pot on the stove, then turn the knob and wait for the water to boil."
"What do you mean when the water boils?" Adrian asked while looking at the water in the pot.
"When the water starts bubbling, it's boiled. This is when you can throw the ravioli or pasta into the pot." Avery patiently taught Adrian. "Like ravioli that has come out from the freezer, usually you need to cook it for about 15 minutes. When it's almost time, you can take one out to try."
Adrian nodded. "It doesn't seem that hard."
"It isn't. You're smart too, so you will learn quickly. Shea even knows how to make soup!" Avery praised. "If you want to learn all these, Mrs. Scarlet can teach you."
"Mrs. Scarlet is afraid that I'll dirty my clothes or hurt myself when I use the knife.
