A/N: Prompt is from my brother, Matthew. I told him to give me a profession and an action and he gave me Businessman and churning. So, I'm going to turn those two things into a one-shot/drabble~ I also told him to name two countries and he gave me Lithuania and Estonia. Ahh, Matvey, you're so oblivious as to what you've just done. /evil smile
Note: I have never done Estoniaxfem!Lithuania family style with Latvia as the baby~ I don't think I've ever come upon a fem!Dread Trio before so I had to do some searching for a name for Toris. I ended up with Jadvyga. It means refuge in war. It kinda stood out to me so... Pronunciation taken from the baby name website = (YAD-vee-gah)
Kallis - Dear - Estonian
I hope you like~
Eduard dropped his suitcase at the door and slumped against the hall closet as he toed his shoes off. The lights further down, around the house, were off, as per usual. Only the kitchen light was on.
Eduard shuffled through the house, expecting a little head of blonde to come racing in and attach itself to his legs but since none came, he safely decided that Raivis was asleep upstairs.
"Kallis," Eduard called as he stepped into the kitchen. To his surprise, Jadvyga was not there. "Jadvyga? Are you in here?" Eduard moved more into the room, looking around. It wasn't that big a kitchen. There was a small counter and stove and table. Not much so where could his wife be hiding?
"I'm on the porch, Ed."
Eduard cocked his head. "Why are you out there?" He went to the back door and saw the flood lights were on and where his wife was leaning over... something. "W-What's that?"
Jadvyga looked up from the stick coming out of the barrel. "It's a churn. I'm making butter."
"W-Why?"
"I've never done it before and Mr. Jones showed me so I thought I'd give it a try. It's real fun and he said it's supposed to taste very good." Jadvyga began churning the barrel again. "Would you like to try?" The woman stood back and motioned for her husband to churn the butter mixture.
Eduard pulled the sleeves of his business suite up and took hold of the stick. "I guess Raivis is sleeping?"
"Yes. He went to bed early. I have your dinner in the oven to keep warm since I made it not too long ago."
To his surprise, the churn was tougher than he had initially thought. The butter was getting thicker and harder to churn. "How long have you been at this?"
"Mr. Jones says it takes only about twenty minutes and I started a few minutes before you came home. I thought it would be a nice treat." Jadvyga smiled as she watched Eduard churn.
After a few more minutes, the butter was deemed done and Jadvyga scraped it out into a bowl. "We can let it chill in the fridge for a bit before we taste it."
Eduard nodded, finally loosening his tie from round his neck. The office had been tough that day and he hadn't expected to make a random trip through colonial times to make butter when he got home so he just wanted to lie down for a few minutes with his wife.
After the bowl was in the fridge, Eduard wrapped his arms around Jadvyga's waist and the two slumped onto the couch.
"How was your day," he asked as Jadvyga placed her head under his chin.
"It's was… exciting. Raivis came home from school today with a friend. They played in the yard for a bit then he went home and I made dinner and- Oh! I'll get your dinner." Jadvyga went to get up but was stopped by Eduard.
"It's okay. I'll eat in a while. I just want to sit here with you for a while."
