Double Rainbow
Rune finished his homework quickly, then headed downstairs quietly around five to start on dinner. He checked the fridge, and sighed softly in relief that someone had thought to take a package of meat from the freezer that morning. He grabbed the meat, and went for one of his mother's old recipe books,and got to work. He picked something quick, knowing that if his father wanted it done by six, he'd better have it ready a bit early.

Meat seasoned and in the oven, he put potatoes on to boil, and started on a salad, as well, even though he knew his father would barely touch it... Maybe he'd have something left over for lunch tomorrow, then... Or even get lucky and be allowed to eat that night. He had made an awful lot, and his father hated leftovers, so...

He smiled to himself, and took the potatoes off the heat when they boiled, andmashed them, checking on the meat, then the time. Looked like everything was on track... He set the table quickly, but neatly, and was serving up his father's meal just as the man in question came downstairs.

His fathr eyed the food, sitting down, and ate when Rune set the plate on the table before him. "Not terrible... Not great, but still edible." He said, after a few bites."Go get yourself something to eat."

Rune rushed to obey, hiding his smile until he was in the kitchen, making his own plate from what was left, though a considerably smaller portion than he'd given his father. He must have done a good job if his father was letting him eat.
