Alicia and I were still waiting patiently for Clara's arrival with things, I feel that it is already taking too long to come with us... Maybe I'm too busy helping my mom with some kitchen chores or something.
Jack: Ahhh... -released a slight sigh.
Jack turned to where Alicia was.
Jack: Hey, Alicia.
Alicia: Hmm? What's going on?
Jack: Do you have any hope that, someday we will return to our world?
Alicia: Mmm...
Alicia kept thinking seriously about that question, since she came here, she had always had in mind to survive or at least have a relatively quiet life, but seeing that she was not the only one, perhaps she has passed through the question, but from time to time.
Alicia: To be honest... I don't know, I've spent my short life on how to live here, in case I can't come back.
Alicia: I have a second plan, but it's being implemented now, which is to lead a quiet life with my new loved ones.
Alicia: As the years have passed, I ended up getting attached to my new parents... Already seeing how my life is here, I'm not completely sure I want to go back.
Jack: I see...
Jack listening to her, he still started thinking, he wasn't so sure he wanted to come back, he had his family and friends, but they weren't that close to them.
At least in this life, it can be seen that his new family has a great appreciation for him.
Alicia: And you want to go back to your old home?
Jack: I... I'm on the same boat as you, I don't know if to return or not...
Jack: But I think, I still have a long way to go.
Alicia: Hahaha! I guess that's okay, same way anyway, you have no idea how to go the other way.
Jack: Hehe, that's a good point.
Jack: Anyway, it's kind of castrating to always depend on a woman to be able to move, even though the men here should not have anything easy.
Alicia: My dad had an argument with my mom before she left on her trip.
Jack: Really? Why?
Alicia: Let's say that for jealousy, being a small man obviously needs a woman to help him move around, so without my mom's permission I hire a secretary, and you already know the huge scandal she made.
Alicia: Having chatted, yelled and almost being crushed by my mother, my father managed to convince her Hahaha!
Jack: Uff...
(Jack) When I come to see my uncle, I will treat him with respect, not every man survives an argument with his wife and lives to tell it... Especially in this world.
Already hanging out, both of them having fun talking about any topic that came to their mind, sometimes serious or some funny, thanks to this talk, could make Jack forget for a moment that he was shrunk.
It took about 10 minutes or so until they heard footsteps coming towards the room.
Alicia: Well, it was nice while hard, it seems that your girl is coming for face.
Jack: Yes, but we can continue talking later if you like.
Alicia: I agree with you, but for now, let's keep our performance natural.
Jack: Okay -I raise his flea in sign of approval.
"Tock" "Tock"
There was a knock on the door.
Alicia: I'm coming~
He ran to open the door, when he opened it, he saw Clara completely occupied, she brought a small tray but full of cookies and with some glasses of juices.
Clara: Sorry for the delay guys, but I had to do some things~
Alicia: Yea! Cookies! - He gave little jumps of joy.
Jack: ...
(Jack) I swear, if you don't get over the fact that she's an adult on the inside, this scene would make me a little tender.
Alicia tenderly helped Clara to put things on the table, Jack seeing so many different cookies together, came to mind a dream he had as a child, where he fantasized about living in a land full of sweets.
Clara: Thanks Alicia, now go and take a seat, I'll give you your share.
Alice: Cookies~
Clara gave little cookies to Alicia, I think she does not want it filled before we eat, but for my part, I just need a cookie, and a few drops of juice to have a full meal.
Clara: Eat it slowly daughter, I do not want you to drown.
Alicia: Chi mami~ -She went to sit in a chair and ate happily.
Seeing her act so mature, it seems that she would be a good mother, but Clara had a plan in mind, she wanted Jack to see it with good eyes and thus have more opportunities to start a family together.
(Clara) If all goes well, tonight we can have our first time~
Jack: ...!! - He had a strong shiver.
(Jack) For some strange reason, I felt my life was in danger.
Jack: Mmm... -I was still thinking.
Clara: Do you want some more cookie? Husband~
Jack: ...!!
Jack: Cof! Cof! Cof!
Jack was eating when Clara told him in that rather tender manner.
Clara: Dear~
She quickly used her finger to pat Jack on the back.
(Jack) Shit! That really surprised me! I didn't expect you to call me husband so soon!
Jack quickly took a sip of his juice and missed the meal.
Jack: Ahhhh... -released a sigh of relief.
Clara: Sorry, I didn't mean to surprise you.
Jack: No, no, it's okay, anyway, we're husband and wife...
Clear: ...
When she heard that, she became extremely red like a tomato.
Clara: E...
Jack: E?
Clara: Wait... give me a minute...
She still blushed, rose from her seat and stepped out of the room.
Jack: Now what happens?
Alicia: Nothing, only that you made the heart of a maiden beat, jiji~
Jack was not so ignorant, he knew that Clara came out to calm down.
(Jack) Now that I think about it, Clara is a very beautiful woman in every way, she possesses great qualities to be a great wife and a good mother for our children...
(Jack) But the real problem is that I do not want to imagine when you get angry with me, very possibly decide to lock me up or the worst case step on me... Ugh, just thinking about it makes me shiver.
(Jack) Anyway, another problem I have is that I would not want to continue deceiving Clara, I guess she will be really sad if she finds out that I'm not Jack she knew from the beginning...
(Jack) Until I find a way back to my real world, I won't say anything.
Jack thought twice before saying anything about his origins, he would still have to plan in case he couldn't come back. So he would need several plans to prevent him from being discovered in a possible future.
I didn't want to end up being crushed or tortured, so that at the end he'll say I'm replacing the real Jack.
(Jack) Ahh... It's better to leave that topic aside, for now I should focus on the problems I currently have.
Jack sat down on a small piece of tissue that was on the table and rested for a while.
After about 10 minutes, Clara returned to them again, but this time it could be seen that she was back to normal.
Clara: Cof~ I'm back.
Alicia: Welcome mommy~
Alicia greeted her with a tender embrace.
Clara: You have been a good girl -he said with a little smile.
As they hugged, suddenly a small grunt was heard.
Clara: ...?
Alicia: Sorry mom, I was hungry.
Clara looked at the clock and saw that it was a bit late.
Clara: Oh! That's right, it's time for lunch.
Clara: I forgot to tell you that we would eat at 3.
She quickly went to Jack's side.
Clara: Come on husband, your mom is waiting for us.
Jack: All right...
(Jack) I think it's time to play...
Jack felt a little strange that Clara was still playing the dads game. Still, he liked being called a husband.
Once Clara took Jack, the three would go straight to the dining room. When opening the door to the room, they get the delicious aroma of freshly made food.
Alicia: Mmm~ Smells delicious.
Clara: Today Maribel made fried chicken.
(Jack) I love when my mother cooks, her meals are really delicious.
Alicia: Here I come! - He ran away.
Clara: Alicia, be careful where you go.
Alicia: I do!
She was the first to leave.
Clara: Ahh... Do you think our children are like that?
Jack: ...!!
Jack became extremely nervous, he did not know what to answer that question.
(Jack) Think, I must say a most satisfying answer for Clara.
Jack: This... I guess if...
Clear: ...
She put on a funny little face, but you could tell that she was happy.
Clara: Well, let's go now or your mom will scold us.
Jack: Yeah.
When Clara started to walk, she carefully put Jack in one of her small pockets that she had in her breasts; Jack being there felt Clara's breasts very soft.
(Jack) I'm in heaven, even her perfume smells pretty good.
(Dining room)
Alicia: First one.
Marta: Daughter, how many times have I told you not to run through the halls
Alicia: This... many?
Martha: Exactly, and how many of them have you obeyed?
Alicia: ...
She was sorry.
Maribel: That's all right, just let it go this time.
Marta: I have let you pass for many.
Maribel: But today we are not for scolding.
Marta: Ahh... Okay, only this time, you heard daughter.
Alicia: Yes, mommy.
Marta: Well, go wash your hands and then you will sit down.
Alicia: Yes~
She was obedient to do what her mother asked.
That's where Clara comes in with a smile.
Maribel: Oh! Clara, you've come at a good time, come help me serve the food.
Clara: Of course my lady... And future mother-in-law... -That last part said in a whisper.
Clara calmly served the dishes on the table, once all was in order, she put Jack on her small table together with some plates and food of the same size as him.
They gave him chicken pieces and some juice, Jack smelled the food, he got water in his mouth, could not wait any longer and ate.
(Jack) Hmmm! No doubt exquisite! These are the few things that make me happy to be here, I no longer mind being a small man if they will always feed me with good food.
(Clara) How cute Jack looks, eating Maribel's food with happiness...
Clara tried the chicken and she still liked it.
Clear: ...
(Clara) My mother-in-law is on a different level, if I want to please Jack in the future I need to improve my cooking. I definitely won't lose.
Clara suddenly got excited.
Jack: ...?
