Barbecue chicken
“Wow this barbecue chicken taste so good” Dorothy said to Mia.
“Not just good, it taste heavenly” Mia replied with her mouth full.
“I can’t believe we have eaten $1000 worth of chicken” Dorothy said calculating the chicken they bought.
“Just $1000, I thought it would be $5000” Mia said.
“Anyway what are we buying next?” She asked.
“Nothing, my money is all gone” Dorothy replied and went to a chair on the street and sat down.
“What do you mean that your money has finished, you can’t be saying that” Mia said and went to the seat and sat down too.
“You are the wife of the richest man in Australia, you shouldn’t be caught saying that at all” Mia said.
“Here is my purse, take any money you see there” Dorothy said and gave Mia her purse.
Mia collected the purse and opened, there was not a single money in it.
“Gosh this is bad and I have only with me $200 for our transport* Mia said.
“Let’s just go home, I want to cook dinner by myself” Dorothy said.
“Okay let’s go” Mia agreed and they hailed a cab that drove them home.
“You are late Ed” Levi said turning in his bed.
“How did you know that it was me?” Edward asked.
“I can smell you” Levi replied.
“Are you a dog or what?” Edward asked sitting at the bed opposite him.
“Yes I am, so how are you guys planning about tomorrow?” He asked.
“We move at exactly 9:30 and it is a code red” Edward replied.
“Really? I am so happy now, it has been long since we had a code red” Levi said very happy.
“Sorry to burst your bubbles but you won’t be joining us” Edward said.
“What do you just say now?” Levi asked sitting up from the bed.
“You won’t be joining us” Edward repeated.
“That is absolute nonsense, I have never missed this kind of thing and I won’t start now” Levi said.
“Cal gave the order that you would be staying so you can’t do anything about it” Edward said.
“Shit !” Levi cursed.
“Let me talk to him” he said, took his phone and dialed Calvin’s number.
“I said that you won’t be going and that is final” Calvin said when the call was connected.
“Come on Cal, it is not fair” Levi said.
“Bye Levi” Calvin said and hung up.
“Hello Cal, Cal, shit ! he hung up on me” Levi said.
“Cal isn’t going to go back on his word, you heard him so just give it a rest” Edward said.
“And this is the reason why I hate being sick or have to stay in the hospital” Levi said.
“Come on cheer up, you have to look at the bright side, you get to spend a whole day with your girlfriend” Edward said.
“You are kinda right, my sweet Mia I love her so much” Levi said holding his heart.
“Please stop doing that” Edward said.
“What ?, by the way did you bring anything for me?” Levi asked.
“Nope, are you hungry?” Edward asked back.
“Fool, so you came empty handed” Levi said.
“Was I supposed to bring anything?” Edward asked laughing.
There was a knock at the door and they told the person to come in, Mr Jack, the butler entered the room carrying a bag.
“Miss Mia asked me to give this to you” he said and came closer to Levi’s bed.
“She couldn’t make it so she asked me to bring it for you” the butler added and kept the bag on the table beside the bed.
“Tell her not worry, it is okay” Levi said.
“Get well soon sir” the butler said and left the room.
“Why give it to the butler?, she should have come herself” Edward said.
“She couldn’t make it, that’s why she is not here, the butler said it” Levi said.
“She seem to not love you that much” he said.
“Will someone that doesn’t love me give me muffins” Levi said when he opened the flask.
“And she prepared it the traditional way” he added.
“Really, let me see” Edward said and came closer to Levi’s bed.
“You want one?” Levi asked offering him one.
“No I am good” he replied and went back to the bed and sat down.
“She didn’t even design it very well” he said.
“But it is very delicious” Levi said chewing on one.
“You should really try it, it is very good” he said.
“Okay, let me taste it, I know that it can never be as good as mine” Edward said, stood up and took one muffin from the flask. He put it in his mouth and chewed it, “what the hell is this?” He thought.
‘How is it?, it made you speechless right?” Levi asked.
“It is so tasteless” he replied and went back to his seat.
“Liar just admit that it is delicious” Levi said.
“Why should I say that it is delicious when it is not” Edward said.
“Stupid jerk, I am going to bathroom don’t you touch my muffins” Levi warned.
“Just go, your tasteless muffins are safe” Edward said.
Levi got out of the the bed and went into the bathroom and Edward was left alone.
He stared at Levi’s flask and felt the urge to eat that delicious muffins he ate earlier.
When he ate the muffin earlier, he was so confused by the taste, he has never tasted anything delicious like that.
“At least she has something that she is good in and not just sleeping around” Edward thought.
Levi came back from the bathroom and continued eating his food.
“Won’t you be going home or are you sleeping here?” Levi asked.
“Yes I will be sleeping here” Edward replied and laid down on the bed.
“What is it?, Kyla is not going you what you want?” Levi asked grinning.
“Fool” Edward replied and closed his eyes.
“Come on, go to a club and hook up with someone” Levi suggested.
“I can’t cheat on her, I love her so much so just shut up Levi” he said.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.
“Ok, I was just looking out for you” Levi said.
“Just focus about getting well so you can help me out with the group” Edward said.
“So you are saying that you need me?” Levi asked.
“Yes but don’t let it get to your head” Edward replied.
“Where the hell is Marcy?” Mia’s father asked coming into his wife’s room.
“I have no idea Luke and besides I am not her bodyguard” she replied.
She was sitting on a stool applying her make up with a mirror at her front.
“Stop what you are doing now Rose and answer me now!” he shouted at her.
“What the hell is wrong with you Luke?, why won’t you allow me to rest?” She shouted back, standing up and facing him.
“You have got some nerves Rose to talk back at me” Luke said.
“Yes and you are not going to do anything about it” she replied.
“You are just a loser and a jerk, who is so stup….’, she was cutted off when a slap landed on her face.
“Luke how….” another slap landed on her face followed by another and another until Luke was satisfied and he left her.
“What is it Tiger?” Celine asked when he came to her.
She was at her restaurant drinking at a table, “I found everything about Calvin’s wife” Tiger replied placing a file on the table.
“It is about time” she said, took the file and opened it.
“She is actually a freaking nobody” Celine said going through the files.
“No way, she is also an orphan and was never adopted” she said.
“Is this all you got about her?” She asked Tiger.
“Yes and she is also a student at Brimford university” Tiger replied.
“Hmm so she goes to Calvin’s university, don’t worry I know what to do” she said.
“You can leave now” she added.
“Ok Miss S” Tiger said and left the place.
“This is the perfect time to start executing my plan” she said smirking devilishly.
“Where did you learn how to make these delicious muffins?” Dorothy asked.
“My mother taught me, it is an ancient recipe from my mother’s family” Mia replied.
“It is so good, maybe you should start selling it” Dorothy said.
“And leave make up? Absolutely no” Mia replied.
“I never asked you to stop make up, but you can sell the muffins as your side hustle” Dorothy said.
“I am kinda curious Doro, has Cal talked to you about having a child?”Mia asked.
“Our contract marriage doesn’t require us having children, we can’t get intimate” Dorothy replied.
“Is that what you want?” Mia asked.
“Yes, children are very stressful” Dorothy replied.
“Don’t worry, I am perfectly fine with it” she added.
“Ok then if you say so” Mia said.
“Let’s go to the living room and watch television” Dorothy suggested.
“That’s great” Mia agreed.
