"I'll go wake daddy!" Chloe said, and I could hear her little feet scurrying towards me.

"No wait let's get you cleaned up first! Ah Chloe!" Olivia called.

Chloe had gotten to me. I had lain down and was pretending to be asleep.

"Daddy, wake up, breakfast," Chloe said as she tapped my face repeatedly.

"Hmm?" I faked a yawn. "Is that a Chloe ghost?"

"Noooo, it's just Chloe," she replied with a giggle, "Let's have breakfast. I made it!"

"You made breakfast by yourself?" I raised a brow.

"Mm hmm," she nodded, "but I had to ask Miss Olivia for help."

"That's very good," I praised as I kissed her forehead. "You look like a mess."

I got up and followed her to the kitchen. The food was already set, and Olivia was trying to tidy up the kitchen.

"Oh you can get started without me," she said. "Good morning, Ben."

"Good morning Olivia," I greeted.

"Oh, Daddy, good morning," Chloe greeted then sped off to the dining table before I could even reply.

"How long were you awake?" Olivia asked.

"What makes you ask? I just woke up if you must know," I said.

"Yeah, right," she rolled her eyes, "…with an open view like that, It's not that hard to notice you."

"You could notice me, but you still couldn't remember to get the pancake off your head?" I asked as I saw the meal still on her head. Her eyes widened in shock as she touched her head and brought down the pancake.

"I meant to leave it there," she said as her cheeks turned red.

"Sure you did," I smirked.

"Dad! Come eat!" Chloe called, "Miss Olivia!"

"The lady summons us," I said.

"You go on ahead, I'll eat in my room," she said.

"You will do no such thing," I warned. "She's already asked you to join us, so don't make her sad. We can clean the mess together when we're done."

"Oh… I don't know…"

"Olivia, please join us for breakfast," I pleaded.

She sighed, "You just had to use the magic word." She got up and followed me to the dining table.

"I made yours," Chloe said as she pointed at my omelet.

"I would be careful, I couldn't remove all the egg shells," Olivia warned in a whisper as Chloe started eating after saying a prayer.

"Wait what? What about yours?" I asked.

"Huh? No mine's safe," she replied. "I made mine and hers so there's no shells. Just yours, enjoy."
