Chapter 7 - Chapter 007 : Preparations

Kincsem and TM Opera O were jogging side by side now, making small talk about the practice race that had just occurred, and of what she was planning to do. As they began to discuss her birthday that would happen in two days time, the sky began to dim slightly.

Having been five hours since they left home, they were now returning, both of their stomachs were rumbling, pleading for food, as TM Opera O chuckled lightly "What are you planning to do on your birthday, cousin?~" Nudging her elbow whilst doing so.

"What will I do..? I honestly don't know other than to celebrate it. All my friends back home are well, still in Hungary and I don't know many people here. Though it's fine!" She said in earnest sincerity, though TM Opera O seemed to be celebrating the idea of it more than she herself.

"I'll bring over Meisho Doto for sure! And.. I'll also just bring over uhm.. Anyone else interested! The more the merrier they say. Haha-haha ha!" As they chugged on back to the estate, yet it was not all joyous when they arrived.

A cross Opera House was seen standing from the doorway, her arms folded as she stared at her daughter. "First, you don't tell me you are going out. Next, you bring along our guest who just came home, and from what I heard from Symboli Rudolf, made her race a two kilometre track at which she fell unconscious from?"

A nervous, almost fearful face grew from TM Opera O, yet with the inability to do Puppy eyes, she lacked the charisma to excuse herself. Whilst Opera House hugged Kincsem. "It's fine, this monster of a daughter of mine is just so evil for bringing you along. Don't worry though, I'll make sure to beat some sense into her."

TM Opera O began to shoot stares at Kincsem, in distress as it spoke 'Please help me out! I will do anything.' Yet before Kincsem could do something, she was dragged along by her mother. A door was shut as screaming could be heard.

Out came a different person, with comically large bruises on the top of her head, yet her personality had diminished. As Opera House left the room, acting gleeful at the sight of her daughter, before entering the kitchen to cook some food.

With Kincsem sitting on the couch, TM Opera O laid down beside her, eyes flickering with a sense of betrayal. As they watched the television whilst waiting for food to be made. Half an hour later, a call was made for the two of them to enter as a platter of food laid on the table.

"Dinner's ready!" Opera House shouted, whilst plating the final portion of food. With drool coming out of TM Opera O's mouth as formality was kicked out of the door. Instantly digging into the food, as Kincsem sat down and plated fair portions.

"...Formal even when eating? Guess I should've expected it from a European noble..~" She spoke in slight sarcasm, as Kincsem replied back. "Of course, one must show proper etiquette rather than to devour everything shrewdly."

A grumbling sound came from Opera O, as she picked at the food with her fork, stabbing into them dramatically, clearing the plate of any edible food, as she got up to clean them of grime.

A slightly tired Cambuscan arrived, dragging along a large wrapped present and two letters that were received, both assigned to Kincsem. "I've Brought some presents over, and also got these two letters for you. But I don't wish you to open them till it's your birthday, you understand?"

Insistent nodding came from Kincsem, as she swallowed a mouthful of food. "Understood Mother, I presume that large present is from Father?" She asked, slightly shocked at the sight of such a large crate. "Indeed, but I won't tell you more else it'd ruin the surprise."

Whilst she completed her food, she nodded again before cleaning her own plate. With a few hours left till curfew, TM Opera O and Kincsem decided to play some games together till the night drew to a close.

It was a new day, as the sun glinted through the curtains, whilst a yawn came from the groggy Kincsem. As she got up she began to walk towards the bathroom before coming downstairs. With TM Opera O still seemingly in bed, she sat down for breakfast.

Today would be a lazy day for her it seems, being a day before her own birthday. There was not much to occur except plans devised by Cambuscan and an urgent call by TM Opera O to Meisho Doto to bring as many classmates willing to Kincsem's birthday party.

"I will accept anyone willing to go on this venture! No matter if they are a terrorist on the racetrack or the kindest soul. Even if we bring out the whole school it will be better than none! Hahaha– Ha!" She spoke in an enthusiastic tone, as Meisho responded hurriedly on the other side.

"But where will we even be able to hold this birthday party..? You want me to bring, potentially dozens or hundreds of people.." As she began to juggle the logistics behind such a birthday party, TM Opera O disrupted her train of thought to re-enter the discussions.

"I can ask auntie! Just bring as many people as possible, we can work it out from there!" As she put the phone down, with no way for Meisho Doto to retort another word, she sat down on her bed, waiting for TM Opera O to return.

Plans were underway from both sides, as TM Opera O asked Cambuscan where it'd be held, practically acting as a Middleman between the two true planners, as last minute plans were being created. Soon, hours had passed, with a guestlist of both family and friends who were mainly Tracen academy members.

The day had begun to draw to a close, turning night, with a half circled moon in the sky. As tomorrow was Kincsem's twelfth birthday tomorrow.
