Today I sit in my chair for breakfast in a blue v-neck top with darker blue trim on the collar. With that, I have dark blue jeans with a black spiky belt. She let me choose the belt along with a black bracelet with a chain on it. The chain goes down to hang then goes up to be attached again, then it goes back down like a wave or something. I look great if I do say so myself! Although I do kinda miss my regular Rowdyruff Boy outfit.
My feet kick back and forth. I wonder what breakfast is today. More eggs I hope. I like them! Cordelia turns and puts the plate down. It has one egg with a piece of toast. Not much this morning. I eat it nether less.

"Sorry dear.", She explains, "I'm running out of ingredients and such. Been awhile since this has happened. I will have to go to the store today for groceries. Why don't you write down what you want and I'll get it for ya."

I nod and continue stuffing my face. What do I want? Candy. What else do you get with groceries? I've never been shopping before. I stare at my food while chewing. What do you get when you go shopping? I think Mojo got groceries but...what is groceries exactly? Food? Ingredients? What kind of food does this store have? I'm confusing myself.

I finished my food and leave the table to find a piece of paper. Grabbing the blue marker I have, I stare at the paper. Candy is the first thing I write down. I stare again. I stare at it for a long time. I got nothing but candy. That should satisfy me though. I don't need much right? I go out and give her the paper.

"Candy?", She looks at it, "Is that it?"

"Yes, Ma'am!", I happily say.

"Ma'am? Well, Aren't I making a polite boy! Hehe!"

"I'm trying!"

"I see that! but, is candy all you want?"

"I...don't know what else to ask for. I'm pleased with what I have!"

"Awww.", Cordelia brings me in for a tight hug, "You're so sweet!"

I snuggle into her. She's like, I don't know. Someone I like. Someone I look up to. She takes care of me. She's like...a real father! Unlike Him and Mojo Jojo! She's the perfect father. One that my brothers would be jealous of me having. She's the best father around! I relax in her arms.

Time goes by. We hugged for awhile. Then she told me stories, made lunch, and settled me in my usual spot for TV. Now I'm watching some black and white show called "Perry Mason". It's about a detective. I want to be a detective cowboy! Picture me with a cowboy hat, long coat, and going around figuring out mysteries! Sounds like so much fun! I lose the vision of the TV and look up to see Cordelia in my view.

"I'm going to go now, dear.", she explains.

"Ok!", I get up and hug her.

"Can you do the laundry and dishes?"

"That's why I'm here! When you get back, the place will be spotless! I promise!"

She laughs, "Alright! You will get something if it's true!"

"Like what?!"

"A surprise!"

"Awww man!"

"You be good.", She kisses my head, "Don't break anything!"

"I'll try not to!"

She hugs me tight then lets go. I watch her leave the house and down the sidewalk through the window. This house will be so clean, she'll see her own reflection on the kitchen floor! I turn up the volume on "Perry Mason" and start cleaning my bedroom first. I swipe at the shelves. Dust flies off as thunder roars outside. I listen to the pounding of the rain.
