Chapter 9. How to bake apple pie (4)

* * * * *

There was no trick this time. Conversation, food and more drinks. But they don’t take their eyes off each other.

And in the end, Leticia got drunk.

If you say, ‘I’m not drunk’ and you’re doing it repeatedly without anyone even asking, then it’s true that you’re drunk. But I felt better than ever.

Until now, for her, alcohol had been nothing more than a tool to force her sinking heart up.

But my position with this man is different. He seemed to be floating, rising from the ground to the sky.

Her alcohol could lift her to greater heights.

‘I’m having such a long conversation with a civilian!’

It was Leticia’s daily routine to spend most of her time with soldiers or criminals.

And if she is a criminal worthy of being directly interrogated by an executive of her size, then at least mid-level. Conversing with someone like that is always tiring.

A soldier or a serious criminal. These are people who have nothing to laugh about. The only exception is Virginia, but since she has a poker face, I’ll leave it out of the discussion.

As a result, Leticia often frowned without even realizing it. Even if she is a pretty girl, if her face is wrinkled, no one will want to get close to her.

But here, she realized something new.

‘That’s right. I was a woman.’

A new and fun experience. Somehow, after today, she felt like she would never come back again in her life, and without realizing it, she crossed her line little by little.

“Would you like to tell me a secret?”

“What is it?”

Leticia took a sip of vodka. Other than the fact that she’s poisonous, she doesn’t have much flavor, so she doesn’t like it very much, but now she doesn’t even get a message unless it’s this much stimulation.

“I mean, I’m actually a ‘hero’! Protect the weak, beat the bad guy! Bread! Leti, the shooting hero of justice! “Bbabam!”

She draws a V shape with her fingers and places it on her eyes like a favorite.

“Is this a magical girl or something?”

Girl. Being a girl, hiccups came out naturally.

‘Well, I’m a little young, right? ‘I was born with good skin.’

Leticia was happy.

“… Cow, girl… same? Really?”

The man named Caesar stared at Leticia. Her eyes seemed to be burning.

‘Wow, it’s quite powerful, isn’t it? Look at his stern and serious face. There was that side too.’

Although a little embarrassed, Leticia boldly lifted her chin haughtily. Yes, she meant look around.

“Big. What. Hmm. Still, the girl is a bit embarrassed… hehehehe. Well, you say ‘transformation!’ So it’s magic!”

‘Yes. You can transform just by changing your clothes. ‘She gets so much criticism just because she wears a military uniform.’

Leticia felt a little sad.

“… But, alas – martial arts. I do not know? Just swear! Listen. Do you know how funny people are? You saved me, right? Then, he started swearing and poofed. Swish. Going away… “

As expected, she waved her hand as if swatting away flies during the swish part, and her intention seemed to be conveyed a little better. Still, she was happy.

“Bbabang! Well, how about it? I guess this is the fate of heroes. Still. Heroes are people too! Person… It’s a person… Just like that… Like looking at a zombie… There’s no need to see it. Oh, isn’t it, Yo?”

“That’s right.”

“That’s right! Now, one more drink!”

Now even vodka is sweet. Everything seems fine without any solutions. But my head keeps lowering. Can not be done. Still betting.

“Excuse me?”

An unfamiliar voice. It’s a waiter. Leticia waved her hand away without even looking.

“Use the radish!”

“… The usage time is almost over. “There are about 10 minutes left.”

“Ah, really? All right. “I’ll sort it out.”

Caesar still looks fine. Without taking her eyes off Leticia, she spoke politely to the waiter.

The waiter looked at the two people with red faces in turn and walked away as if he understood them. It’s not the first time I’ve seen a couple who made eye contact and left holding hands.

But it wasn’t Leticia. She became more urgent. Her crisis detection skills, which any elite officer should naturally have, sounded the alarm.

‘What? Are you organizing it? Wake up? Then what about me? ‘I still have over 11 bottles of alcohol left to drink?’

As soon as the waiter disappeared, Leticia hurriedly waved her hand to Caesar.

“Zu, zugi, over there…” !”

“Please speak.”

“… Well, uh, um, uh, my house isn’t far, not far from here… “

‘Wait a minute? Is this correct? ‘You’re taking home someone you just met today?’

I felt like I could hear the sound of the opposite s*x pleading while banging his head against the wall, and sometimes I didn’t.

‘Then why am I worried like this?’ Leticia thought hard, and soon she came up with a reasonable answer.

‘Ah. Right. I was in disguise, really. Then I won’t be able to take you today. You can’t take him inside the house. Then… ‘

Thinking she was smart after all, Leticia proudly stretched out her hand.

“Please deliver!”

Caesar blinked her eyes rapidly. A look of confusion.

‘Ah. Right. Is there an additional delivery fee? ‘How much should I give?’

Her head was spinning and she couldn’t calculate it well.

“It’s not difficult, so I’ll do it for you.”

“hehehehe, what the hell?”

It was irresistible for her tongue to curl, Leticia thought. This is unavoidable, so it is a physiological phenomenon. Caesar must also understand this.

“… But the security inside is tight. “I can’t go in, right?”

‘What? Was that the only reason?

Leticia pounded her chest with her fist. Her clothes were so thick that it was hard to feel her.

“Ah, let me know! Since you only enter the public number, no one will say anything! It’s okay. Wait a minute, how much do I have to pay for the drinks? “

“You don’t have to give it to me.”

“Huh?”

Caesar was smiling.

“Please think of it as a small favor. As you can see, I have more alcohol to sell. I came here to make business partners, not to sell something out of immediate need. “I hope we can continue our good relationship in the future.”

The man’s words sounded strange. Several parts were missing here and there. Leticia used her reasoning skills, which were her strengths.

‘Favor… I am… relationship… If we continued… ah. ‘Does this person have a crush on me?’

It is certain. A subtle smile. Favorable eyes. Active reaction. Ah, but….

‘It’s difficult, what if I do this? It’s too fast. No. Maybe I was a person who secretly communicated well with other civilians? Did I underestimate myself?’

After the unfair thoughts passed, she became scared this time.

I had seen it in a book. It was a phrase that said, ‘The secret to escaping solo from a dating coach’ blah blah blah.

Even if you get along very well at the first meeting, there are times when it doesn’t work out. If everything is opened at the first meeting, curiosity decreases.

So, Leticia remembered the phrase that some parts that might attract curiosity should be left behind.

“Big. Hmm. “Well, I know what you mean, but isn’t it a bit fast?”

“It’s fast?”

Caesar’s face changed to puzzlement.

Leticia’s heart sank. ‘Oh, isn’t this it? Was there a misunderstanding in the communication?

“Ah, uh, uh, I mean. A little… therefore… hehehe, slowly… How about finding out… So… It’s a bit sudden… Oh no! Sis, it’s not that I don’t like it…. To. Uh oh, me, um, why am I saying this, ehehehehe, so twisted… Oh, you can’t take your eyes off me. Really.”

It is Jaeseungjabak. The two were still betting and couldn’t take their eyes off each other.

Leticia seemed to be falling further and further into the quagmire. Her words become increasingly slurred, her concentration decreases, and her heart beats more and more.

Luckily for her, where everything had flown away, the last one remained. A phrase from ‘A Dating Coach’s Secret to Escape Solo’ came to mind.

But I was a little confused as to whether it was the ‘What You Shouldn’t Do’ column or the ‘How to Make My Man’ column.

Anyway, Leticia decided to push forward like an elite officer.

“… Well, so… Ooh, us. Oh, not today! Until next time, baby, apple pie…. Ma, do you want to make it?”

“Apple pie? “They sell ingredients there too. Can’t I just bake them?”

Leticia lifted her index finger and slowly waved it from side to side.

“Nononono. Well, it’s fundamentally different from that kind of waste, that’s right. This is just not apple pie. Elsa: Is this a traditional recipe?

My grandmother quietly told me, my grandmother! It’s a recipe! A real Szarlotka? All the ingredients! All… “I can prepare!”

‘What did you tell me to do? Did you say it would be better if I subtly leaned in and showed my cleavage?’

But now that she was dressed as she was, it was difficult to show her neck, let alone her cleavage.

So instead, Leticia stretched out her leg and kicked Caesar’s ankle. This too, she said, has its own appeal.

She seems to have worked well. Caesar’s expression became a little strange. Her thighs were uncomfortable under the two layers of pants she was wearing, but she kept her legs together as best as she could.

“But, uh,, it was so… ah. Because there is no one to play that. You know what?

Heegu. It’s sticky and soft. It smells a bit fishy, but the man just stretched his arm like this… Like this… You just have to shake it to make it happen… Well, there are some bubbles… That.

You can prepare everything else, but that’s… I’m having a hard time… ?”

Leticia cupped her hands and waved her arms up and down. Anyone could see that it was a pose shaking a shaker or a whisk. Fortunately, the man noticed right away.

“Are you talking about meringue?”

“Ehehehehe. You know right away, right? Experts are different. That’s right, that’s right… He makes the meringue, and she makes the dough together…

Put it in a hot oven and bake it sweetly… Let’s eat together… Ah, I’m getting hungry… ?”

The reason I touched my lower abdomen while talking about the oven was because I was really hungry.

Her grandmother’s apple pie was always a comfort to young Leticia. No matter how full she was, she could always eat that much.

“Umm, everything, next time…” Shah, grilled charlotte… Drinking… Let’s eat together…

I don’t know anything else, but that one thing… Because I’m really confident… Well, and me… I usually leave some time on the weekends, so… “

“That’s it. You just have to set the time, but… “

After.

Caesar sighed. It seemed like Leticia’s world was falling apart. ‘What? Is there any problem?’

“Why, why… ?”

But at that time. Phew. There was a sound of a fuse blowing, and the electricity went out all at once.

“Uh, what is it?”

– Here are some instructions. We would like to inform our customers. New alert. I repeat. New alert.

Voices of confusion spread throughout the store.

– Breaking news that a flock of birds is approaching the Hamptons. Hampton City Hall has cut off electricity supply for emergency operation of the public network, so we would appreciate it if customers would remain calm and remain inside the building. Let me say it again…

“aaah!”

Wadangtang. A loud noise was heard outside. Leticia and the man remained motionless at the table. Instead, other people flocked to the window.

The sound of air raid sirens rang through the city. People crossing the skybridge didn’t have any problems.

All you had to do was go back or quickly cross and close the passage.

The problem is the homeless and pedestrians on the streets.

They tried to enter the building, making noise. However, not only the shutter but also the security window had already come down. Emergency closing was possible simply by operating a lever, even without electricity.

“Open! Open it! “Is your life your only life?”

But the uproar did not end there.

Bang! Bang bang!

A gunshot was heard from the bottom of the building. Screaming, fighting, gunshots, whistles. The whistle was issued by a military police officer.

– Zombies appear in the pet store on the lobby floor! Zombies appear at the pet store! Zombie dogs and cats bit the vet! The cage is open! Repeat! Repeat!

“aaaH!”

There is a fuss from the outside trying to get in, and from the inside there is a fuss trying to get over to another building.

But the closed network, which was already tightly closed, had no intention of opening. A situation where people are rushing upstairs from downstairs.

“Get out! “Get out of here!”

Bang! Bang bang! People did not hesitate to shoot others in the back to save their own lives. Leticia was just dumbfounded by the momentary change in situation.

At that time, Caesar moved.

“You have a pistol, right?”

“Yes… yes!”

“Give it to me. Hurry!”

“I can shoot a gun too… Ugh?!”

It may have been like that before, but not now. Leticia was completely drunk. She almost slipped while holding the gun.

Fortunately, I held onto the slide part of Eretta 92, so there was no misfire accident, but it was a dizzying incident.

“Mr. Letty. “I think this match will have to be postponed until later.”

“… Joe, great!”

I don’t even care about zombies or anything. Letty was already looking forward to her next date. Yes. This is a date.

‘I did it! You did it! I was also a woman who could apply for after-sales service!’

Half a joy.

‘… ‘But those zombie bastards are trying to ruin my date?’

Half anger.’

But the joy and anger soon flew away. Caesar deftly loaded her two automatic pistols and strapped them to his waist.

Then, she quickly wrapped the two bottles of alcohol in a towel, put them in her bag, and handed them out to Leticia.

“Can you carry this in front? “I might get bitten by a zombie, so wear armor instead.”

‘Please cut yourself too.’

“… Yes.”

If we had met when we were girls, we would have been able to do it for 100 years. Leticia wanted to grab him by the collar, asking why he came so late.

Numerous futures unfolded before her. She has one son and one daughter. Just two sons. I only have two daughters…What would be a good name…

‘Come to your senses! There’s a zombie ahead! Get ready to take her clothes off! ‘Aren’t you going to transform?’

Reason was divided. If we were to judge calmly, she should have taken off her clothes and thrown them away right now.

But I couldn’t do that. Up ahead, Caesar was gesturing to her to welcome her.
