Chapter 17: Father's Day
Ezra woke up and suddenly realized its Father's Day. 'Man, I haven't celebrated this holiday in years. Maybe I could do something for Kanan and The crew. They've been like my family since I joined so maybe I could make a simple breakfast.' He got off his bed and went to the kitchen to find Hera making breakfast. He walked up to her and asked "Do you mind if I make the eggs?" She smiled and said "Of course not" He smiled back at her and went around the kitchen gathering his ingredients. 'Eggs, Worcestershire sauce, cheese, salt and pepper'. He heated up the stove and got cooking.
He could also sense the questioning eyes of Hera on him the entire time. Thinking 'What is he doing?'.
An hour later, breakfast was done and was steaming on the table. The crew filed in and sat in their spots. They looked over the food and started piling up their plates with the meal. Once everyone was satisfied with the amount of food on their plate, they dug in. And once everyone touched their eggs, their eyes widened at the taste. They all went back for seconds and soon all the eggs were gone.
When everyone finished they looked to Hera and Sabine asked "What did you do to the eggs? Their amazing." Everyone nodded Hera smiled. "I agree but I didn't make the eggs" The crew were suddenly confused. "Then who did?" Kanan asked. Hera looked to Ezra and said "He did" They looked to Ezra in surprise. He laughed at their surprised faces. Zeb was the first to speak, "You got a real talent kid" Ezra smile faltered. "It's not my recipe, it was my mum's." The crew were saddened but Sabine was curious about two things. "Wait I got two questions, one, How did you remember your mums recipe, it was like 7yrs ago, and two, why did you cook the eggs?" Ezra's smile fell completely and said "One, I remember very moment I can about my mum and dad and this was one of them. And two, it's Fathers Day and y'all have treated me like family which is something I haven't had in a long time so I thought I could at least make eggs."
After his rant, The crew were in a mix of emotions. Happy he feels that way about them, sad that he lost his parents, and angry at The Empire for taking his parents away from an innocent little boy.
After he saw his crews faces, he said "Well I'm glad you enjoyed my eggs, I'll cook more often and give you the recipes. And Happy Fathers Day!" But of course, Zeb only heard one part of that. "You cook other things as well?" Ezra nodded with smile. "Yeah I remember almost all mine and my mums recipes. It was our favorite thing to do." Zeb also asked, "Yours?" He nodded. Hera smiled and said "At least now I have cooking buddy." He nodded once again. 'I'll continue the family recipes, mum. I'll make you proud' Ezra thought.
Over the next couple months, Ezra helped in the kitchen and everyone enjoyed his cooking, always asking if Ezra cooked. He also started a cook book to put all his mums and his recipes. He also started teaching Hera the recipes.
He was glad they enjoyed his talent and praised him for it. 'Just like home.' The words echoed in his head.
