At home
I stepped into my elevator and the doors closed, I punched in the number of the garage. The elevator moved slowly until it stopped at the garage level. The elevator made a ding sound as the doors opened. I stepped out of the elevators and walked to where I had parked my car, a 4WD I got few weeks before I got married.
I was using a Sedan before but I decided to change it because I felt that I needed to upgrade my standard of living since I was earning enough and my hotel was becoming popular. I cant be appearing to work in an old sedan. This will keep the people talking.
I got into my car and drove out of the garage. I headed straight home. I was already thinking of how I was going to go straight to bed and ask for Selena to serve me lunch in bed.It was then I was struck with the realization that Selena wasnt home yet and Id have to go into the kitchen to prepare my own dinner.
I was torn between making dinner for Sebastian as well and leaving him to starve after how he spoke to me the other day. Still in my thinking mode, I drove through the gates of the mansion. I drove into the garage and parked my car and got out of the car. I walked into the house and up to my room. I pulled my clothes and stepped into the shower.
I washed my body thoroughly with my body wash. I noticed that my body wash needed some replacement. I would need to buy another one after the spa date with Beth tomorrow.I got out of shower and changed into a tank top and shorts.
I got out of my room and suddenly a wonderful aroma wafted over my nose. The house smelt like someone was cooking. Did Selena come back already? She said she wasnt going to be back till after Christmas. I walked faster down the stairs until I got into the kitchen. What I saw baffled and interested me at the same time.
A shirtless back faced me. It looked so firm and strong and I just wanted to run my hands through them. As if the owner of the back heard my thoughts, he turned almost immediately and I was faced with a gorgeous Sebastian who was sweating but at the same time looked hot.
He looked so good standing there in only his joggers. Someone clearing his throat brought me back to reverie. What are you looking at? Sebastian queried.
Sorry, I was just shocked to find you in the kitchen cooking. You should have called me to make dinner for you, I said, trying to act nice.
Like I said before, I dont want to eat any food prepared by you. Now if youll excuse me, Id like to get back to my cooking, he said, turning his back at me.
What happened to the food I kept in the fridge last night then?" I muttered to myself but it seemed like he heard me, because he turned.
What food? he asked his back still facing me.“I prepared some cheesy pasta with mushroom and mincemeat last night. I left some in a bowl since you said you werent going to eat. I couldnt find it this morning before I left for work. Were the only two people in this house and if I didn't take it that means you did, I said.
He turned to face and I got so scared when I looked into his dark eyes. He looked like he was infuriated. Wait, you made that? he asked.Who was he expecting to cook when neither Selena nor Mae were around? Yes, I did. Who else were you expecting to make dinner last night? I voiced out the questioned that was stuck in my head.
I thought Mama Selena made that before she left. If I had knew the food was prepared by you, Id have just starved to death. Its not like the food was delicious anyway, he added, turning back to his cooking.
But you ate it all, I said with a low voice.
Anyways, I made extra so you can just dish up and take it a replacement for last nights meal, he said.I dont want your food too. Ill make mine, I said and walked out of the kitchen.
My face was hot and my heart was hammering hard. I was so angry. How dare he talk to me that way? How dare he say my food doesnt taste good? People of different calibres come to our restaurant to eat my recipe and he's telling me that my food was delicious.
I just wanted to go back in there and strangle him. But hes stronger than I am and my hands wouldnt fit if I tried to grip his neck with both my hands.
I sat in the living room and turned on the television. I began to watch a film to calm myself down. After a short while, my stomach grumbled and I held it in my hands. I couldnt wait for Sebastian to leave the kitchen so I can make my own dinner too.
Just as that thought crossed my mind, Sebastian came out of the kitchen holding a plate of food that was steaming hot. The aroma of his food was tantalizing that it got my mouth watering. I quickly got up from where I sat and made my way to the kitchen to make my dinner. I had to make something light for dinner. I made toasted peanut butter and jelly sandwich and ate my milk with a cup of warm milk.
I was excited for tomorrow because not only will I be spending time with my best friend, Id also be getting a spa treatment. I want to loosen those tight bolts in my body. With that thought in mind, I finished up my food in no time and headed straight to bed.
