Mutants' Daily Life [Comprehensive British and American]

what a deal

Howard, despite his confusion, delivered on his promise with great integrity.

He bought a latest game console for Carlos that day.

Carlos thought happily: This kind of business can come twice more!

However, it is so exciting to play with new toys!

As a result of staying up late playing games, he kept nodding sleepily while eating breakfast.

Nightcrawler sat next to him, like a child with ADHD, talking non-stop.

But in Carlos's feeling, his chattering voice, like a bunch of bees, made a buzzing sound, constantly ringing in his ears.

Later, he seemed to hear Kurt say something, "The professor is going out again... I heard that there is a mutant who can turn water into ice in Washington. This time, the professor is taking Scott with him." if.

"What? Has the professor gone out again?" Carlos struggled to open his mouth, but did not speak out.

Too sleepy, just want a bed next to the dining table, let him lie down and sleep.

"I really don't understand."

At this time, Katie the Phantom Cat interjected from the side, and she just happened to come over for breakfast.

Because of Qin's lack of ability, she doesn't sleep very well all the time, so she wakes up relatively late in the morning.

So, Katie has been single lately and has been alone the whole time.

Holding the plate, she simply sat next to the relatively familiar Carlos, looked sideways at the other's knocking little head, and couldn't help asking Kurt: "He's so sleepy, and he doesn't have class in the morning. , what are you doing here for breakfast? Why don't you just sleep in the house?"

"Because Mrs. Maria only serves creme brulee in the morning. Moreover, in order to avoid waste, she will cook according to the number of people who eat breakfast. Carlos is reluctant to miss every meal."

Kurt carefully explained: "Last time he got up a bit late, and the last creme brulee was eaten by Mr. Logan. He was so sad that he was about to cry, and his eyes were red all day long. Followed one meter behind Mr. Logan like a ghost..."

"Uh... Well, it's hard for me to understand his obsession with eating. However, creme brulee is really delicious... Hey, hey! God!"

Katie screamed.

"Lord! Carlos! Carlos, are you okay?" Kurt shouted in a panic.

Carlos, who accidentally stuck his head in the bowl, took a long time to slowly pull his face out of the bowl of creme brulee.

He licked the corner of his lips with a dull expression: "It's delicious... oh, no! My pudding..."

When he reacted and screamed out.

Kurt has flexibly rolled a box of tissues with his tail, grabbed a handful of tissues with his paws and handed them over: "Wipe quickly!"

"No, no, wipe it off and there will be nothing left to eat. I'll lick it myself..." Carlos said in pain.

"Come on, Carlos, do you have such a long tongue?" Katie couldn't help laughing.

Obviously not.

Carlos wept and closed his eyes, refusing to watch such a tragic scene again.

He took off his glasses, sat there obediently, and let Kurt take a tissue to help wipe off the dessert on his face.

Katie also seemed to want to help, but she found that the scene in front of her was very interesting.

A little devil with fangs, pointed ears and a long tail, patiently and carefully holding a tissue to help a little angel with wings wipe the face, because both of them are very young, the scene looks very harmonious and friendly.

"You'd better go wash your face again." Kurt wiped it carefully, while earnestly instructed: "The paper towel is not very clean."

"You know that this is not what I'm concerned about..." Carlos continued to mutter in a low voice with a look of lovelessness on his face.

Kurt tilted his head, seemingly puzzled.

Katie also stopped eating, biting her fork, watching this scene with great interest, especially Nightcrawler, ignoring his blue body, his expression and demeanor are so direct and cute, it's clear at a glance , in comparison, the other child is much more complicated.

"Pudding!" Carlos said with a serious expression, emphasizing his voice.

"But, I can't eat it anymore." Kurt said honestly, looking at his bowl of ruined pudding.

Katie felt that things were more interesting, and she decided to continue watching.

Carlos suddenly wrapped his arms around Kurt's neck affectionately, and whispered something in his ear.

The next moment, Kurt happily handed over his pudding bowl...

'Kurt, you are too easy to coax! '

Katie didn't expect this situation for a while, and she couldn't help being surprised.

But... a deception of your own accord?Willing to fight for the robbery?

Forget it, now the friendship between children is really incomprehensible.

After Katie sighed, she planned to continue eating her own breakfast.

However, as soon as he looked up, he saw Mrs. Maria beckoning to Carlos suddenly.

Then, Carlos stood up in surprise, ran over with his short legs.

The two of them didn't know what to say in the kitchen.

In the end, Carlos got another bowl of creme brulee.

Katie didn't know how to express it anymore.

But she thought that what followed would be a happy ending where the two children would each have a bowl.

However, she is so naive.

Kurt bit the spoon stupidly, watching Carlos eat two bowls sweetly by himself.

Katie couldn't figure it out.

For example, what did Carlos say, and Kurt offered him the pudding?Carlos bullies Kurt every day, but Kurt is not angry at all?

Why did Madame Maria make an exception and give him another bowl of creme brulee?

Also, why Carlos, who had to get up early to get his pudding in the first place, suddenly got a special treat.

This special treatment is that Mrs. Maria will reserve a copy for him every day in the future! !

Katie the Phantom Cat thinks that if X Academy wants to select the most amazing mutant, she will definitely vote for Carlos!

Ignore Katie's wild speculation.

As far as these questions are concerned, the problem between Carlos and Nightcrawler is their little secret for the time being.

But Mrs. Maria's special treatment is somewhat related to what happened yesterday.

Lady Maria has always been a dedicated hostess to the Starks.

As a wife, she is good enough to match Howard in terms of talent and self-cultivation, and she is also virtuous, considerate, and understanding.

But at the same time, she was also a mother.

A mother who has been worrying about the Stark father-son relationship.

Yesterday, after she euphemistically reprimanded Howard for his negligence towards her son Tony, she saw a trace of remorse and guilt on her husband's face.

Therefore, she felt at ease that the relationship between the two fathers and sons would definitely be eased this time.

But that night, Howard came back with a dazed look on his face, and he didn't see any reconciliation with Tony at all.

On the contrary, when Tony was mentioned, the expression on his face was really ugly.

Lady Maria asked him several times 'what happened? ''what happened? '

Howard kept evasive and didn't answer.

This really worried Mrs. Maria.

She was very afraid that because of the same stubbornness and stubbornness, the relationship between father and son would become completely rigid, and eventually it would become an irreversible situation.

After thinking about it for a while, she patiently persuaded Howard indirectly, "Don't blame Tony, it may be difficult for him to express it frankly for a while!"After all, his feelings for Captain America have been a little different since he was a child, similar to...'

When she said this, in order to ease the atmosphere, she also made a small joke: "It's similar to love and hate. '

Howard's face darkened even more.

Madame Maria then dared not go on.

Then, she hung up a call to Tony the next day, and she made some insinuations, but still got nothing.

She had no choice but to face her son as always, and said something similar to 'Your father has been busy with Captain America recently, and ignored you, it really wasn't intentional.He takes Captain America very seriously, one of the most important people in his life, don't blame him for his comforting words.

It was also strange that this time Tony was not appeased by her as before.

He seemed even angrier.

The two fathers and sons are equally difficult to deal with.

The bewildered Mrs. Maria had no choice but to decide to get rid of Carlos, who was good-tempered and sensible, and seemed to know something inside.

With a bowl of creme brulee as reward, Carlos really knew everything and started talking endlessly.

Carlos, who has a very professional ethics, in order to be worthy of all the rewards, continues to tell the truth, just a slightly cut version of the truth.

While yawning, he replied sleepily: "Tony asked me to monitor Uncle Howard, and if I found Captain America, I would notify him in time; Uncle Howard, let me monitor Tony too, if Tony has any strange behaviors and actions, You should also notify him in time."

Mrs. Maria: ... what?

Faced with such a confusing painting style, Mrs. Maria had no choice but to follow.

She said that "she can leave a creme brulee for Carlos every day in the future."

Then, she asked worriedly: "Carlos, help me watch Howard and Tony! If there is any quarrel or conflict between the two of them, please remember to notify me in time .”

Now he has become a "double agent". Carlos, who has received two salaries, rubbed his eyes sleepily, and got a third job without any complaints, and received an extra "salary".

He agreed bluntly: "No problem!"

Only then did Mrs. Maria stroke his soft curly hair a little more reassuringly, and leaned down, kissed his forehead with a smile, and praised him affectionately: "We Carlos, what a good boy! "
