Chapter 61

She was actually right though, there are some girls who are only after what they can sap out from their boyfriends, they don't even care about feelings or anything

"Hmmm. So what should I do when I eventually fall into the trap of such girls?"- I asked with a grin on my face 

"Just break up with them and move on, that's all. No hard feelings there, except you enjoy being extorted all the time.

  By the way, she we need to serve this noodles to others, they must be very hungry right now"- She replied while taking out some plates from the plate shelve 

"Oh you are right, I'm pretty hungry too"- I replied while assisting her 

"Good, that will make you quicken up the process"- She replied

We both walked to the living room with a tray filled with plates of noodles, Michael's facial expression gave me the impression that we was so hungry. I even heard Gabriel's stomach rumbling like a lion

  Damn, these boys are really hungry. Seems the food they ate last night was not enough to fully satisfy their hunger level

"Oh thank Goodness the food is finally here. Let's dig in"- Kelvin said out loud

"Nah, not so fast. First of all, we will need to set the table and pray.

  And we won't miss morning devotion today"- Alexia replied

"Please I think morning devotion can wait till after we are done eating. Let's just pray for the food and eat up because my stomach is empty and it would take a matter of time before you start hearing the rumbling sounds of my intestines twisting together like little worms"- Micheal replied while rushing to grab a plate of noodles 

"Okay fine, let me do the prayer since most of us here are now blinded by hunger"- I replied, trying to ease down the pressure here 

"Alright we are waiting"- Gabriel called out to me 

"Dear lord, please bless and sanctify this food so that it would not only satisfy our hunger level, but nourish our body to the extent that people would start feeling jealous of our perfect body tone.

  Bless the hands that prepared this food and we pray that you will provide more opportunities for her to keep cooking for us"- I said while ending the prayer with a loud "Amen"

"I keep saying it every day, you are really funny. Imagine the prayer point, so hilarious"- Kelvin called out to me 

"But it's still regarded as a prayer nevertheless. Let's dig into this delicious noodles before us"- I replied

Everybody grabbed their plate of noodles and started eating like hungry cave men. Micheal didn't even bother to use the fork, he used his bare hands to pack the noodles into his mouth like a village boy. 

  I was somehow ashamed of such action until Gabriel did the worst by using his two bare hands to pack the noodles into his mouth. Why are they eating like this, they aren't even practicing any table manners at this point. I know that most of them are hungry, but they should try to eat with respect and maturity just like me and Alexia

Alexia carefully rolled up the noodles with her fork and gently directed it to my mouth, I kept observing all of them while eating mine with caution so that I don't end up staining myself and the table. We all finished our noodles in a couple of minutes and all the boys laid down on the floor like fallen heros

  Barely looking at them, you will think that they are coming back from war, not knowing that they are only tired from the large quantity of noodles they packed into their stomach at once 

"I must confess, you are a good cook"- I called out to Alexia after finishing up with my own plate of noodles 

"Please don't flatter me, I'm only trying my best everyday. I'm not that good as you think"- She replied with a smile 

"What are you saying. This food was fucking amazing and I enjoyed every bit of it, from the pepper to the sliced carrots inside and the spices you also added to improve the taste. Please give yourself some credit that you are actually good in cooking"- I replied, trying to cheer her up 

"Yeah, Andrew is right. You are actually good at this, unlike some of us here that don't even know how to cook"- Kelvin interrupted

"And what do you mean by some of us don't know how to cook?"- I replied, trying to get his attention to that particular question

"Hey, don't take it personal. But I do know that you don't know how to cook, do you even know how to boil water?"- Kelvin asked 

The rest of them burst into laughter on hearing Kelvin's reply. I didn't find the reply quite funny, is he trying to make mockery of my cooking skills

"Listen up young man. I do know how to cook sometimes and I also know how to boil water, so I don't know why you are trying to mock me now"- I replied, looking a bit serious this time around

"Oh okay. If you know how to boil water, then why don't you explain it to us let's be sure that you actually know what you are doing"- Kelvin replied with a devilish smile on his face 

I don't know why Kelvin is becoming a pain in the ass nowadays, he was definitely not like this before. But all the same, I will still flow with him

"First of all you place your kettle on the gas and you fill it with water and that's all"- I replied boldly

"Wow, never knew you were a magician"- Micheal cut in

"I'm telling you bro. How on earth will you place a kettle filled with water on a gas and expect it to boil when you didn't even switch on the gas"- Kelvin replied and they all burst into laughter for the second time 

I was getting really pissed off now, I forgot about switching on the gas part and now they have turned it to a joke. These guys are just trying to ruin my day today but it's not gonna work for them this time 

"Hey I forgot to mention that you will switch on the gas after adding water"- I replied, trying to defend myself

"I don't think that's true, you only forgot to mention about using your witchcraft magic to boil the water"- Kelvin replied

"Well, it would have been nice if I was actually a wizard of magician. Because I would have turned all you to chickens and sell you each for $2"- I replied and this time, all of them stopped laughing, seems they have become serious all of a sudden

"Alright that's enough. Let's go straight to the main issue at hand"- Kelvin replied, trying to get everybody's attention at this point

"Oh okay. So what do we want to discuss about"- Alexia asked while trying to pack up all the plates and take them to the kitchen for washing

She's indeed a good girlfriend and wife material at that, too bad she's Micheal's girlfriend. But I swear to God that she would make a perfect wife for any man who would be lucky enough to get married to her 

"Let me help you with that Alexia"- I called out to her while helping carrying some of the dirty plates 

I was just about to bend down to carry Gabriel's plate when I heard a loud noise from Kelvin's anus. He just polluted the air 

"WTF!!!. What did you just do?"- Micheal screamed at Kelvin and all of us stared at him like someone who was caught stealing

He nearly melted when he realized how he just disgraced himself in the midst of a girl. That's really shameful though and it would reduce the respect he would get from Alexia

"I'm really sorry guys, I didn't expect this at all. The gas just flew out of my anus like a bird, please forgive me"- He replied with sweat all over his face 

I'm so happy that the wheel of disgrace has finally landed on his head, next time he will mind the way he laughs at others 

"Please always rush to the toilet when you feel uncomfortable, don't mess up the fresh air we are breathing.

  Look at how the smell has messed up my stomach. Feel like vomiting"- Micheal replied and rushed down to the toilet

Gabriel remained silent and walked away like nothing happened, guess he was too scared to talk 

I followed Alexia to the kitchen to tidy up the dishes

"Can't believe Kelvin would let out a gas like that. I almost vomited back there"- She replied with anger in her face 

"Hey calm down, it's nature and you know you can't question the call of nature most times"- I replied trying to ease of her anger

"I know, but at least he should have received a sign, it doesn't just fly out like a bed for no just reason"- She replied

Seems she is the kind of person who doesn't like such nonsense. But who am I to question her personality

"It's okay. Let's just tidy up the dishes and head back for the meeting"- I replied

"Yeah, but back there. Kelvin said you don't know to cook, is that true?"- She asked

I nearly froze on hearing that question, not again. I can honestly say that I'm not good in cooking, but why are these people trying to rub it off on my face like it's a crime 

"Well, ever since I was a baby. I have always had a maid who took care of anything that has to do with food, even up till now.

  She still cooks for the whole family and there has never been a day when I will enter the kitchen to prepare any food. I will just call my maid and tell her what I want to eat and she would prepare it in a matter of minutes"- I replied

She seemed quite surprised, but why would she be that surprised?. After all my parents are rich, you can't expect them to start cooking or teaching their child how to cook when they have a maid to handle that kind of issue

"This is quite interesting, so I guess you don't know to to prepare some nice food for yourself?"- She asked again

"I don't really know how to prepare a single food. I was only trying to defend myself back there so that they won't laugh at me. But eventually, you all laughed at me so hard"- I replied with a frown 

"Hey, don't take anything that happened back there to heart. We were only trying to lighten your mood and also make yoh laugh. But it seems you are not the kind of guy that laughs over such issues"- She replied

"I only learned how to boil water when I accidentally walked into the kitchen to see what the maid was doing at that moment. Because I called out to her and I didn't get her reply, so I decided to check up on her in the kitchen and I saw how she boiled some water in the kettle.

  But is it bad that I don't know how to cook?"- I replied

"Well I won't say it bad. But it's really not nice to lack some good cooking skills, you never can tell where you will find yourself tomorrow.

  You maid won't be there anytime you move out to another place. Imagine now that you are in Atlanta Georgia, who is gonna cook for you if you were staying alone"- She asked 

"Well, I would stay in a hotel and that aspect would be taken care off"- I replied with a smile 

"What if you don't have that opportunity to stay in a hotel or there are no hotels in your current location?"- She asked 

I was getting a bit nervous with all these questions and I don't even know how to reply this new question of hers
