Lisa

"Do you need something, Your Highness?"
I asks innocently while looking at her

"Yes, Cook something delicious for the dinner and I command you to join us later"
The Princess said directly without stutters, I cleared my throat, confusing myself if i heard it correctly.

"Will do, Your Highness" I bowed and bit my lip

"Sure"

I look up and Sighed after the Princess turned around and take her leave watching her entering the palace, I looked around and didn't see the Empress i got confused, she left without me realizing,

I walked inside and the Servants followed me, We headed to the kitchen, asking myself what should i cook for the dinner. I was about to start cooking when someone came in, And it was The Empress. We bowed and she speaks

"May I borrow the Knives?"

She asked one of her servants instead of me, I frown in confusion, why would she borrow the knives. What is she trying to do? The servant quickly nod and grabbed the knives, she was about to give it to the Empress but i speak

"Wait, Your Majesty... I also need a knife because of those porks that are need to be slice, Maybe i can have one?" I asked genuinely and I saw how the Empress stare at me for a sec before telling her decision

"I'll do it" The Empress replied with a different smile that I can't clarify

"What?" I asked with unpleasant look

The Empress didn't mind me and she went to the table, she picked up and put it in the wood cutting board. She start slicing the porks into pieces and I looked at her out of curiosity, she's smiling while slicing the pork, I gulped when she started slicing the pork with a loud sounds. I flinched when The Empress called me

"Lisa?"

"Yes, Your Majesty?" I says nervously

"Would you like me to cut those porks in very small slices? Or are they fine with this normal slices?"

The Empress asked Smiling, blood on her hands because of the porks

"Some Fresh Blood, Isn't it?"

I went back my attention to the Empress looking at me with a different smile, She keep smiling and I don't know the reason why,

"Your Majesty, I think it's fine with that normal slice" I cleared my throat and The Empress chuckle

"Are you sure? For me, I don't think so" The Empress shook her head

"Uhm okay-"

I got interrupted when her eyes meet mine, She stared at me without her facial expression, I tried to read what's on her mind but i cannot. However, it got me more nervous when she start walking to my direction, with knives on her both hands, I was gulping and sweating hard realizing she's already infront of me not like far earlier, she went more closer and said something that makes me more confused

"Yes or No?"
The Empress said almost whispering that made my body shivered in fear. Why would she asked something like that out of blue, I was drowned in my thoughts when The Empress repeat her question, I flinched

"Yes or...No?"

"Y-yes, Your Majesty" I agreed all of the sudden without even knowing what was that for, The Empress smiles differently again

"Small Or Normal?"

"N-normal..." I answered directly

The Empress stare at me with mix emotions before she walked passed and take her leave, we bowed immediately and I sighed confusing myself about The Empress weird Questions.
