Chapter 8 - Dinner Time (1/2)

I didn't had any chances to eat dinner with Stella since we got married. So this will be first time, we're gonna have dinner together. I should use this opportunity to know her better.

” I didn't knew that you can cook.”

” Yeah I used to cook at home sometimes how about eating dinner with me tonight?” She asked me

” Fine then I'll tell Lucy to prepare dinner-”

” That won't be needed. Actually I've been cooking dinner by myself all this week. Since you were eating outside I made the dinner for myself and l told Lucy to go home earlier.” She told me cutting into my speech.

” Why did you do that for? Didn't I hired her to do the chores?” I asked her

” That's not a problem for me. I spend most of my time lazily, so doing some work and cooking prevents my bone from getting rusty.” She giggled back at me.

I went to check the files, that were sent by John. I sat on the couch, scrolling through my ŀȧptop.

” Dinner is ready come to the table.” I heard Stella calling for me. I closed my ŀȧptop, keeping it on the table and went to eat dinner.

I sat on my chair and Stella placed the bowl in front of me. I looked down and saw it was soup, the colour looked brownish orange, which means it's pumpkin soup.

” I thought we should have soup for dinner since we had fried chicken before. Btw I've heated those pizza slices also you should eat them first.” She placed down the plate which had two pizza slices.

I finished those slices and took a sip from the soup. The pumpkin soup was really creamy and sweet,well balanced with spices. I can feel the roasted flavour of tomato and onion in it.

” Wow! Your cooking is quite good. It's even better that Lucy's cooking.” I complimented her.

” I'm glad that you love it. If only you could have came for dinner everyday, I would have cooked for you.”

” I think I'll have to change that now.” I chuckled at her and continued to eat my soup. It's been long since I had dinner at home with someone. Having someone else with you at dinner can light up your mood.

” I don't really like eating dinner by myself. But since you're living here we can have dinner together from on.”

” That'll be good. In fact I don't also like eating alone. That's why I was eating at my room while watching anime.”

” You like watching anime ? Isn't that thing is for kids?” I asked laughing at her.

” Who told you that! You should see for yourself!” she got frantic,snarling at me.

” I have never been interested in those things. So I don't have any idea on the topic. Sorry if my words hurt you.” I said her, trying to hold back my laugh.

” Then lets go to my room after you finish your food. I will show you some anime that will change your perspective.”

I went to her room and the decorations was totally changed. There was two big pillows that had picture of half nȧkėd guys. The left side of wall was covered with anime character posters. The book racks were filled with books. I went to see what types of books were there. So I picked one from the rack and to my surprise it had anime character on its front.

It was clear that she's obsessed with those things. I sat on her bed and she brought her ŀȧptop. I suddenly remembered that I need to inform her about my date with Regina tomorrow.

” By the way I'm going out with Regina tomorrow so I won't be able to eat dinner together.”

” Okay.” She replied to me turning on the video.
