Chapter 157 - You cant keep something thats not yours. (1/2)
When Lifen woke up, it was already half past ten in the clock. She was shocked too. In these last two years, she has got the habit of rising early in the morning.
The first thing she wanted or searched was Deming. Not finding him in her room and in the living hall, she thought he has left because of the words she has said to him in the morning.
She felt a disappointment. She even rebuked herself for talking to him in such a straightforward and stern tone. But then again what she said earlier was not false either.
She gave some thought to it and then shrugged off her thoughts mumbling, ”It's okay. You can't keep something that's not yours. And thinking something as yours when it's not is the blunder that I can't make again”.
Making the same note again in her heart, she stood up and started walking to her room to take her bathe, when suddenly she heard a click of the main door.
She turned to look towards the door to finf Deming coming with several bags from the nearby supermarket.
”Good morning, Little Cat. Hope you have completed your sleep properly this time”, he said as he paced towards the dining table, placing down the vegetables.
Lifen too walked back to the dining table to look at what he is up to this time, ”What's all this? And where have you been early in the morning?”.
”Ah this are some green leafy vegetables which are good for health. I have gone to the nearby supermarket to get some vegetables for us. Today while cooking breakfast, I found that the green vegetables are ending up. So here I have brought all these and will he preparing a healthy dinner in the night”, he said with a smug as if he has done some sort of great job for which he should be praised.
”...”, she was dumbfounded by his words. The Great Wang Deming has went to the supermarket to get vegetables. No one is going to buy these words if they didn't witnessed this with their eyes.
When got response from her, Deming felt a little disappointed as he wanted some good words from her but she didn't made any word in his favour.
”Okay, now you go and take your bathe, I have prepared breakfast already. In the meantime, I will reheat them for you”, he said with enthusiasm and gently pushed her to the room and then to the bathroom.
After completing her bathing procedure, soon Lifen came out only to find Deming eagerly waiting for her at the table with breakfast.
He heartily welcomed hee and served her a plate of nutritious light meal. She can't help but stare him with wide eyes. What's happening? Why it feels like everything is so perfect as if we have never being separated?
It feels like we have are newly weds, but the roles are being exchanged between us. Why I feel like I'm his husband and he is playing the role or sweet, lovely and efficient wife.
”How's that? Does it suit your taste? Is there anything that you don't like? Tell me I will make it again or maybe I can improve it according to your taste”, he asked.
”When did you learn it?”, she didn't answered him, instead asked another question to him.
”Huh? Oh this I have always known the basic cooking skills, since I was fourteen and I have to live in States alone. But in these two years, I have sharpen those skills thinking that you quite like cooking so when being together with you I can be your assistant ”, he said lowering his head and then adding some salad to her plate.
Lifen didn't find any proper reply for his words , so she can only spell, ”Oh!”.
