Chapter 8: Chapter 8 - Celebration for being a Trainer
Later at 12 o'clock, they arrived at Rico's house. As Lucas pull over, Rico became the first to get off the car and ran towards the gate, opening it and the car entered the garage.
Dawn and Lucas get off the car, followed by Dawn's team. They and Rico then entered the house via the front door, with Rico greeting Rosario, "We're home!"
Upon noticing them, Rosario greeted them back, "Welcome home, Rico."
She then turned off the stove range and opened the lid of the pot, revealing Yellow Curry boiling hot . And as Dawn and her team are settling down at the living room, Rico took a peek at the boiling Yellow Curry. He then commented to Rosario, "Wow, mom, this looks delicious."
While opening the oven, Rosario responded back positively, "Yes, and the empanadas are now done."
This excites Rico a lot.
"Yes!"
Lucas then helped out by preparing the table with plates, bowls, and utensils.
And then, Rosario noticed Dawn sitting at the living room, and she greeted her with positive hospitality, "Oh, why, hello there."
Upon hearing Rosario's voice, Dawn looked at her and responded back, "Oh, hi, you must be Rico's mom, right?"
"Yes, and welcome to our home," Rosario welcomed her in response.
"Thank you so much."
Not long after, they all at the table eating and drinking. Their Pokémon, including Rosario's, Lucas', and Dawn's, are eating their special food in food bowls nearby. And then, Rosario began the conversation, "So, Rico, where's Riolu now?"
"Oh, it's now my first Pokémon," Rico answered her back positively with confidence.
"Oh, I see," Rosario responded back with positive feedback. "And you became a Pokémon Trainer officially?"
"Yeah, and a professor named Campillo gave me a Pokédex."
"Wow, congratulations. What a weird coincidence. I prepared this meal just in case you become a Pokémon Trainer."
"What, really? Thanks, mom."
After that, Dawn tasted the Yellow Curry with rice, and was allured by its texture and taste.
"Wow, this is so good," she commented to the Cruz family. "What is this?"
"This is Yellow Curry," Lucas explained in response. "It's one of our favorite family dishes."
"I see then," Dawn responded back. Then to Rosario happily, "Thank you, Mrs. Cruz."
"You're welcome," Rosario replied back with a smile.
Later after lunch, Rosario was washing the dishes, and Lucas was wiping the table, while Rico and Dawn, as well as their Pokémon, are upstairs at Rico's bedroom. And then, Dawn commented to Rico, "Your room looks nice and clean."
"Thanks," Rico positively responded back as he gets a book about Pokémon moves, the same one he read last night, while Riolu and Piplup are playing.
He then showed the said book to Dawn, and said, "This is a book about Pokémon moves. This is where I get those moves."
Glancing at the book in mild amazement, Dawn responded back, "Oh, I see then. That's amazing."
"I know right," Rico replied back as he puts the book down. "I'm so excited to learn more about Pokémon with my new Pokédex."
