My noodle was ready and I dished mine out then left the one for Zain and his brother inside the pot and left the kitchen after getting a glass of orange juice for myself.
I got to the living room and turned the TV on, then relaxed to have my noodles. It was just me and no one else, hoping that it will remain like that until I am done with lunch but that prayer was not answered. Owen walked in and dropped on the side of the couch I was sitting on. I was wondering when we became friends for him to sit near me. Last time I checked, he never said anything to me.
"Is this how you do, you cook and eat all by yourself?"
He asked and eyed my food. If his plan is to eat my food then it's not going to work. I picked my plate of Noodles and scooped some into my mouth, ignoring him totally. I gave him no answer to the question he asked rather I chewed my noodles nonchalantly.
"I see you are rude"
He said and snatched the plate of Noodles from me before I could even stop him. I glared at him then charged at him but I was no match for him.
"What is there if you ask me to share? I would have gladly share with you. It's uncultured for you to snatch someone's plate of food from them"
I said even though I know I would not have shared if he had asked me to.
"This food tastes delicious, I bet the cook will taste as good as this meal"
He said after he took a bite, he was literally standing while I tried to take the plate from him. Anyone seeing us would think we are a couple.
His last statement got me and I glared at him. He is so shameless for saying what he said. What did I expect from someone who is a brother to Zain. They are all a bunch of shameless dudes.
"You know I could choose to ignore you anytime, any day. But you see food, I don't joke with it. The next time you're making a food, make it for all of us because I love good meals. This one tastes delicious and I'll definitely come back for more and maybe later come for you. I don't like you doesn't mean I don't want to see what you have in there"
He said and winked then dropped the plates with the leftover in it and walked out.
"Ahhhhhhhhh!"
I screamed and kicked the plate, the contents poured on the floor which means I just created some work for myself. There was no way I would ignore the mess I just made or I would hear from Susan.
"Young lady, while you are in my house don't break my plate"
I heard Susan say and I cursed under my breath. I looked up and saw her and Zain standing at the entrance staring at me.
I bent down, picked the plate and left to get a broom and dustpan. I anticipated how I was going to enjoy my meal and rest afterwards. Now, I did not get to eat it and on it,I cut out work for myself.
I know I left some in the pot but I have lost appetite because of this dude that called himself Owen. The kind of anger that was surging through my vein is capable of sending someone to his death.
Since I arrived, I have been provoked from one person to another.
I got to the living room and started clearing the noodles on the floor.
"So baby tell me, how is it going to be tomorrow? You promised you are going to take me shopping right for new clothes and shoes. I want to get away with the old ones, probably give it to Jenny or give them out. I don't want my baby to arrive and see me wearing old stuff."
Susan said and kissed Zain on his lips.
I chuckled when I saw that Zain was trying to take his face away, he was avoiding the kisses coming from Susan and Susan was not reading the sign. She was blind to them or should I say, she was pretending to be blind to them.
"You will definitely shop for new things. Just allow me to rest, I need it. I'm tired after the long journey. You've been all over me since I returned"
Zain whined, obviously getting tired of my sis's touchy attitude.
"I hope you're not trying to tell me that I'm the one stopping you? It can't just be me, it's the baby in my belly."
Susan retorted.
I had no business with whatever they are doing so I packed up and left with a knowing smile. Zain's stares lingered on me as I left the living room.
"Is your lost, man. You married the person you felt is good for you so stop looking in my way"
I amusely said, shaking my head in the process.
"Jenny!"
I heard Susan yell my name after I disposed of the trash on my dustpan. I was angry about why she had to yell my name like that.
"I am coming"
I responded and left to know why she was calling me.
"Please, can you help me get my cell phone on the bed?"
"Alright"
I said and left. When I got to the room, I went straight to the bed to pick the phone and as I picked it. A text pooped in on the screen. The phone was locked but I could still read the text.
"I had the best time ever today, hopefully we always get enough time to ourselves. I can't wait to have you again. You are sweet my darling"
It was a message from an unsaved contact and I do know that Zain can't be the one. Who on earth will not save their partner's contact? This could mean Susan is cheating on Zain.
