Shared Burden

"Why is it so hard?!" Lily muttered in frustration as she burned another pancake.

She had burned so many that she had long lost count, which made her more frustrated as she believed that she had already gotten the hang of it before.

"Stop complaining and give it to me!" Roran spoke as he took the pan from her hands.

Lily grimaced as she cursed her inability to do such simple tasks.

She was about to retort, but his comment stopped her. "Just sit back, they will be ready in a few minutes."

She had to admit defeat, so she complied as she sat and waited patiently for her boyfriend to be done cooking.

After they were ready, Lily and Roran had a delicious breakfast.

No delicious was an understatement, the pancakes Roran had cooked probably rivaled the ones created by the best chefs in the world.

"You… really can do anything, huh?... it's like you are the complete opposite of me," Lily spoke, her tone carrying a hint of sadness.
