29 Chapter 29 - The Ultimate Wingman (1/2)

Thomas arrived at the gate and let himself in.There was a small gap that he fit through to exit and he was able to fit through it again when he had to get in.After opening the side door he could smell something delicious.On the opposite side of the house from the bakery was a dining room and Thomas followed the scent to there.

Jessica and Jasmine were already seated at the tables when Thomas finally arrived.Like the rest of the house the two tables differed in size.”Oh my, you've returned at the perfect time.Dinner was just about to be served.”Jessica seemed happy to see him while Jasmine was acting impatient.

”Don't lie, mom.We've been waiting for you.Where have you been?”Jessica didn't let Jasmine eat before Thomas returned and she felt hungry.

Thomas took a seat at the shorter table.He would have liked to sit next to Jasmine and flirt a bit more with her but then he wouldn't have been able to eat unless he stood on the chair.”I went out to the market and got distracted by a book shop.Sorry.”

Jessica served him some food.She had made a stew and baked some rolls for them to have on the side.”Oh, I was sure that you were going to find another woman to fuck.”Jasmine was eating a roll when Jessica said that and she started choking before chugging down a glass of water.

”There's no way I'd do that when there are two lovely ladies waiting for me at home.”Jasmine looked at Thomas and her mother as if she couldn't believe what she was hearing.Her mother was talking about him having sex and yet he seemed to be going along with it.

Jasmine smacked her palm on her table.”Is this really the kind of conversation that you should be having at the dinner table?I don't need to be hearing my own mother talking about sex when trying to eat.”

Jessica giggled and spoke to her daughter.”I think that now is the perfect time to talk about it.”Thomas was eating his food while watching them.The stew was very creamy and Thomas was enjoying eating a piece of the roll that he had dunked in it.Jessica seemed to be a good cook.”After all, my little girl seems like she'll become a woman tonight.”Jessica looked over at Thomas.”Isn't that right?”

Jasmine started protesting, leaving her stew to sit and cool down.”What kind of nonsense are you spouting this time?Since when did I say that I'd give myself to this shorty!?”Thomas felt insulted... he really was a shorty though.

Jessica continued with her teasing.”That's no way to talk about your future husband.Don't you remember that you accepted his proposal earlier?You were the one that told me about that.”Jessica's smile got a bit wider.Thomas felt like she was laying a trap for her daughter but didn't know where she was going with this.

Jasmine's face became red and she pointed her spoon at her mother.”I told you that I only agreed to marry him if he could pay my dowry up front.There's no way he could afford it so let's just drop this subject for now.”
