Chapter 17
Mischief in the Kitchen
Haruhi surveyed the once immaculate kitchen in dismay. Sauce spattered the floor, appliances, and yes, even the ceiling. Chunks of potatoes stuck out of a blender from Hikaru's attempt at making mashed potatoes. The twins were gaily sliding around in the unknown concoction on the floor that Kaoru had made.
How on earth had she gotten entangled into this mess?
Flashback
Haruhi was walking out the school gates when she was suddenly pushed into a limousine. She soon found herself standing in a very large and very impressive kitchen. A lacy pink apron had been tied onto her with a matching kerchief tied on her head.
"What exactly is going on?" Haruhi asked the boys who appeared to be sashaying around the kitchen.
"Our mother decided that she would give all the house staff the week off," Kaoru explained never stopping in his movement.
"We need someone to cook for us!" Hikaru added.
"So we decided you would cook for us," they said together as they met and clasped hands.
"Goodbye," Haruhi said stonily as she headed for the exit.
"Haruhi!" the boys cried.
"We will starve if you don't make us food!"
"Don't worry, Kaoru! I shall forage in the forest for anything edible and give it to you!" Hikaru pulled his twin close.
"But Hikaru!"
"Don't worry, my dear brother. I will flourish with your love alone!"
Haruhi resumed her retreat but was quickly stopped when the twins lunged at her.
End Flashback
Haruhi wiped smeared jelly off her cheek and sighed. What exactly had they been trying to make? She glanced at the now dancing boys and decided it was time to take her leave.
"I'll be going, goodbye," She said before abandoning her dirty apron and leaving.
The twins stopped dancing and grinned at each other.
"That was a bit entertaining, wasn't it Kaoru?"
"Yes. We were getting bored."
The two laughed evilly and congratulated themselves for their brilliant plan.
The kitchen door and there stood a butler. "Hitachiin-sama, Hitchachiin-sama, should I send in the maids to clean up this mess?"
"Yes. And get the chefs to start on Veal Scaloppini ala Marsala."
"And tiramisu!"
