"You're awake" She glanced at Eliot who is holding a cookie and milk. He placed it in the side table.

"Thanks" Miharu said and drink the milk as she eat the cookies.

"Can you help me?" Miharu asked.

"Help you what?" Eliot asked.

"To be strong. And to be able to bake japanese sweets. By the way i'm Miharu Lemaire" Miharu asked.

"Japanese sweets?" Eliot asked.

"Yeah. I have only 19 days to finish the task" Miharu said.

"19?" Eliot said.

"I am only here for a mission. Father wanted me to beat Miya" Miharu said.

"I can make japanese sweets. Fine I will help you. In just one condition" Eliot said.

"What is it?" Miharu asked.

"I'll only teach you once for every recipes. It means you cannot fail. I will just dictate what you will do. I won't be making you" Eliot said. Miharu nodded.

"What are your goals?" Eliot asked.

"Goals?" Miharu asked.

"Well then. What do you wanna do now?" Eliot asked.

"Lets start for baking" Miharu said.

"Once its over I will apologize to Andou and the others" Miharu said.

"Then for today you'll make Strawberry Shortcake" Eliot said.

"I don't mean Amano Ichigo" Eliot said as he sighed. I laughed a little.

"Sorry" Miharu said.

"Get the egg yolks and add egg yolks and 20 gram sugar into the bowl, then whisk them briefly until the sugar dissolves. And then add the strawberry syrup and mix them well" Eliot instructed and she did what he told her.
