BK 2 Chapter 5

"Assalamualaikum bunny" Maryam greeted me and strode to the kitchen majestically while I rolled my eyes at her.

I turned and smiled sweetly at her, "waalaikumsalam sugar".

"Whatcha cookin, miss cook" she inhaled the aroma of the food.

"I'm cooking what's cook-able," I replied, stirring the dish.

"I'm famished" she yawned, patting her stomach while it growled in response and I chuckled lightly.

"If you want it to be cooked quickly, come help me" I slyly said while slicing the onions.

"Me! What?" She screeched like a banshee while I'd to cringe internally.

"You" I grinned, wiping the tears forming in my eyes due to the onion.

"I can't darling, I'm a visitor and visitors don't help in the kitchen" she smiled sweetly.

"Visitor?!"I exclaimed comically.

"Yes, babe, visitor" she smiled innocently and winked at me.

I took the frying pan to get the fish. "What are you doing?" she asked.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" I asked sarcastically.
