"Thank you [username] for the superchat! Let's see... 'Hi Mysta! Can you wear a maid outfit, bake a heart-shaped cake and give it to Vox plsss? It's time to prove to him you can bake! Love you!'"Mysta bursts into laughter after reading a request from the Mystakes."Guys! I'm pretty sure Vox will throw it out of the window, or he will even kick my ass out before I can go to the kitchen to cook something! Do you remember when I refused to listen to him and made the kitchen explode? Ahahahaha!"Indeed, recalling that "accident" always makes Mysta amused. He takes a moment to think and finally makes his decision."Alright. Listen. Mysta the cat maid can make a perfectly fine cake, without dropping eggs or the whole cake I swear. And then I'll give it to Vox as you wish, he's gonna love it."As a true Mystake, after all the times witnessing Mysta throwing a gas cylinder on the stove or dropping a cake on the floor and washing it with water, I doubt he will succeed in impressing Vox with his baking skills. However, I'm interested to see how things turn out this time. Maybe Mysta would bake a fine cake as he said, to prove to Vox he's also careful and talented. "Oh! And you should be my assistant! It's a good idea, right? Believe me, this is going to be good. Prepare to taste the sweetest heart cake ever from me and my Mystakes, Vox. Now where is that maid outfit again...?"
Mysta takes my hand and leads me to the kitchen. He excitedly shows me his cat ears headband and spins his maid dress as if he really enjoys wearing it."How do I look? Nya~ Even prettier than the first time I wore it? Now this cat maid is ready to bake a cake!"This maid does look pretty indeed and I love it.Fortunately, all the ingredients are kept in the fridge and we're good to go. Instead of the old chocolate orange taste, Mysta now wants to create a new one."I know, I used to randomly ask Vox what flavour he likes. Well let's make a mint caramel cake! That sounds perfect."Mysta quickly makes up his mind and starts. I have braced myself that he might spoil something but he's been doing very well throughout the process. While waiting for the mixer to complete, Mysta even does some cleaning. What a good cat maid."The cake mold is done! Now it's time to put it in the oven." Imagining Mysta making an incredibly tasty cake gives Mystake the hope of seeing Vox pat Mysta on the head and praise him. And that's when I made a major mistake of not noticing that Mysta was setting the microwave to his satisfaction without first reading the directions."Let's turn it to... 300℃ for 6 minutes... no... for 3 minutes 30. Okay nya~"Mysta closes the microwave door and pulls me around dancing. He is so happy that he might not be paying attention to my warning. It's too late to change, the microwave light finally goes out, Mysta excitedly comes to open it. From what he barely sees in the microwave, the result is a mold with "no cake". "Let me see my beautiful cak- What the f*** happened to this!?"It wasn't until he took the mold out of the oven that he realized how it looked. The cake has turned into complete darkness and the smell is awful."..."It takes Mysta a while to process after seeing that thingy. Then he looks and touches the cake of darkness to check. "....No don't worry, everything is going as planned. You know what? I'm gonna make an Oreo cake for Vox, nya~"When I asked him to taste it, Mysta refused to do so. But he decided he would save the cake. He adds lemon to the bowl of white frosting, stirs the mixture well, and asks me to spread it over top and sides of the cake while he goes to get more ingredients. Before he left, he even didn't forget to do cat-like hand gestures to me. I doubt this is the right thing to do, but Mysta is so adorable that I end up helping him anyway.After a while Mysta comes back, he unwraps the Oreo, sprinkles crumbs and puts some Oreo on top of the cake, then he carefully inserts three V.O.X candles in the middle."Done! Good job Mystake! Vox is going to love our cake and beg for more."
"What is this? I don't think today is my birthday. And what are you up to, with that outfit, Mysta?", Vox asks while looking at the cake and Mysta's clothes.Even though the idea to fix the cake at the last minute was not mine, right now I am extremely nervous to give it to Vox while Mysta keeps pushing me from behind."Come on Mystake, you can't be this nervous! Don't you see, Vox? This is our gift to you to show our affection, nya! We baked this cake together for you and you should be thankful for it.""Nice, or I'm not sure, you can't be so kind to me all of a sudden, Mysta."Then Vox turns to me, gently taking the cake from my hesitant hands."But since you have come to give it to me, I will receive it. Thank you. Come in, you're welcome to my place.", Vox says and makes way for me to enter his house."Sheesh... He treats everyone nicely except for me.", Mysta says with crossed arms.I hug my flushed cheeks as I walk in and Vox brings the cake to the table."So... Am I to believe... you baked this cake, Mysta?", Vox asks as he takes a fork.Mysta raises his eyebrows in delight and makes some cat gestures with his hands."Absolutely, nya~ Is it nice? This is mint Oreo cake, and there's a secret ingredient! Give it a try Vox, I'm excited to see you will be eating it soon.""Yeah, quite a thing. But before I can do anything... just stop behaving like that please, you are giving me goosebumps!"Vox carefully takes just enough cream and slowly brings it to his mouth. Mysta gently kicks my leg to give a sign. I know even if we are in the same boat, I still don't think it's a good idea to anger the demon. I just hope Vox tolerates this naughty prank on him."Lemon? I didn't expect this."Vox immediately recognized it as soon as it was put near his nose and on the tip of the tongue."Yep! How's the idea? You said you like to eat sour tastes right?", Mysta winks."Nice try. And I have a question. Tell me, Mysta... Lemon is the secret ingredient, and Oreo is on the top, so where's the mint?""I don't know. You have to explore it.", Mysta shrugs."Now you are getting suspicious. Come, I want you to taste it first for me, young man."Mysta says nothing, he turns his eyes to Mystake for help. Unfortunately, the demon's eyes have pierced the hearts of the two, leaving both of us speechless. Mysta starts to panic when Vox slowly cuts a piece of cake on the plate."Well, I'm very grateful for this special cake. Now, Mysta. Join me eating this and find me the mint."Mysta makes the most innocent face of him and intends to run away, but the demon quickly holds on to his shoulder, holding a piece of cake ready to feed Mysta menacingly."NoOoo! Put that down!? M-Mystake... Help! AaaAaAaaaa!! "Mysta's screams in the kitchen were scarcely audible to me, who had already fled to the living room. If Mysta hadn't messed it up, this may have been a lovely present for Vox. Perhaps the best thing to do now is to ask Vox to organize a cooking lesson for Mysta. The hope that Mysta will cook properly can still come true.
