The scene shifted once again. This time, Zuri was in the kitchen, clearly preparing food. Who would have thought that the once proud princess would be in the kitchen, cooking?
Her once youthful and childish face had matured—etched with wisdom shaped by trials. But what caught my attention the most was the gentle smile on her lips. It wasn't forced. I could feel she enjoyed her new life—one with fewer responsibilities.
The door creaked open.
"Honey," the familiar voice called out.
The young human from before, now older and broader, walked over to Zuri with a grin. I could see the love in his eyes as he stared at her. "Did you miss me?" he asked, leaning down for a kiss before she could reply.
I turned my face away, cheeks warming with embarrassment at the scene before me. They hadn't done anything inappropriate—but it felt intimate. I felt like I was intruding.
"Lorm, I'm cooking," Zuri said, slapping his mischievous hand away.
Ah. So the human's name is Lorm.
