Chapter 39
The Cook ✅
"We try to hide our feelings,but our eyes speak "
Flora's Pov
Today I woke up to an empty bed,,I looked around for Aiden but nothing
I was so disappointed
Ping
My phone vibrated and I looked at it
Meet me tonight at ***** restaurant
Gilbert.
And I rolled my eyes,why can't you leave me alone Gilbert....Rrrr
And I switched off my phone and then Aiden came outside...from his closet I guess
He looked at me for a mini-second and he diverted his eyes from me
That hurts
"Good morning Aiden " I said ...maybe he will finally reply to me..I hope tho
But he said nothing "are you really going to ignore me...what did I even do"
He ignored me again "I'm sorry,you're hurting me..you know " he ignored me again
"So it hurts " and he smiled "what do you mean " he said nothing And he left
Just like that
He's hurting me...but I hope he knows that
Anyways I got up and went to the bathroom amd i showered before going downstairs
To meet aria and dana watching TV and I chuckled "Good morning you too"
"Good morning flo..." and she looked at me and smiled and I did the same
"So have you two had breakfast " "yes daddy made us breakfast this morning "
And he made nothing for me...
"Oh...I will go and made myself okay " "okay"
So not even coffee..nothing
I said feeling disappointed....
But all that changed when I got into the kitchen and I saw pancakes,beacon,waffles and eggs with a drink and a little note on it
Make sure you eat it!
Aiden.
Awwwwww and I rolled my eyes before smiling
I thought
Aiden has a heart you know
Yeah I guess so and I smiled and I ate happily before I joined dana and aria I'm the living room ~â
â~â
It was now past two in the afternoon and I have made lunch already
So we're now full and I suddenly saw a lady come in....
Wait her face looks familiar
Ohhh it was that cleaner...ohhh what is she doing here
"Hey flora " "Hey...been a while " "Um where is Mr Nicholeson " "Um ai-Mr Nicholeson is at work "
"Ohh okay " "Where is Dana's room " "umm wait...why are you asking that "
"I just want to know...um is Mr Nicholeson's room next to Dana's "
"Umm don't take it the wrong way...but I can't tell you that...That is not my place to tell "
"Why " she asked harshly "Because I just can't unless Mr Nicholeson permits me to say that " And i smiled
And she looked at me weirdly "And by the way didn't Mr Nicholeson fire you...what are you doing here because he did not say anything about you coming here "
Something is definitely off and I can't sit like a dumb ass
"Don't worry....but you will definitely see me again " She said weirdly
"Is that a promise or a threat " i asked folding my arms "take it how you want it..."
And she left after watching dana and i weirdly
"Weirdo " I whispered and I joined dana again...laughed out loud...
And we continued watching TV till it was time for me to make dinner â~â~
â~â
It was now past six in the evening and I transfered my dinner dress into Dana's room
I don't want Mr Nicholeson to look at me weirdly while I dress..
I'm done preparing dinner and Mr Nicholeson is already here..I greeted him but again nothing
Anyways I ignored the feeling of disappointment and hurt and I got dressed
And by the time i was done...Mr Nicholeson was already in his study
"Dana tell daddy i have somewhere to go and I'm already late okay"
And she gave me a questioning look but said nothing "o..kay " and I left
It was already raining when i went outside...more like a Thunderstorm
I took a taxi to the restaurant and I went in to meet Gilbert already there
All in all he looked Good
And as he saw me,he came to my side "Good evening flora,you look beautiful "
"Thank you,you don't look bad yourself " and he smiled and led me to my seat
"Okay,so what do you want to order " "Um I'm good with anything "
"No,order something " "okay....I scanned through the menu and I saw pasta...and it is my favorite so
"Pasta will do " "Wine?" "Non-alcoholic please " and i smiled
"You're really a lady...wooow "
No I'm a perfect gentleman and I rolled my eyes but he did not see me
"I guess so " and he ordered
We were now waiting for our food "So is she your daughter " "who"
"That little cutie " "Nahh she's my sister " "Oh Thank God" "Thank God?"
"Umm do you have a boyfriend as of now " he asked ignoring my question "no I don't " and he smiled
"I really like you " and I raised my eyebrows at him "In just a day" "You beauty attracts me "
Oh my beauty..woow
"Okay so what if it fades away " and he looked at me speechless
I got you bro....
"Don't worry I'm just kidding " and he sighed "Oh " and he smiled
He likes me for my beauty...I already know what I wanted to know
"You're so beautiful " and he touched my hands....and he now wanted to kiss it and a blow came out of no where.
And he fell to the ground and it was no one but Aiden and he was continously punching him
"If" punch "you" punch "fucking " punch "touch " punch "her" punch "again" punch "I " punch "will" punch "fucking " punch "kill" punch "you" punch and he continously punched him
"Aiden stop...you will kill him " and i stopped him "wouldn't it be even better "
"You're fired and consider yourself jobless for the rest of your life "
"And you.,..let's go" and he dragged me out of there..he was so wet....
And it was raining....oh that's why he's wet and he pushed me inside the car
And he freaking drove off,.,, in a speed that called accident
"Aiden slow down " he did not even listen to me....him knuckles were bleeding
And his veins were popping out of his neck...he's deadass mad at me
"Aiden slow down..." and he and he glared at me like "Shut- the- fuck -up" And I quietly shut up
And finally we reached home and he dragged me inside again but the place was dark telling me that aria and dana are already asleep
He dragged me up the staircase and I fucking missed a step and I fucking fell down and hit my knee and on the process i sprained my ankle
"Ahh" he did not even care and he dragged me till we reached his room
"What is wrong with you " "You're the fucking one making me this crazy"
"What if you killed him " "It will make it even better " he said calmly but harsly
And he took my bag from me and he searched inside for my phone and he freaking threw it on the wall
Bashhhhh
"Aiden what is fucking wrong with you...why did you do that " And he smashed it with his shoes
"Let me see how you'll talk to him " "what do you want me to do when somebody talks to me...ignore them like you ignore me "
And he looked away "well guess what,I'm not like that ...when something is bothering me...I speak to the person.i don't ignore people because I know how it feels like to be ignored "
"How can you even ignore a person when nothing comes from your mouth but yes "
"Well you can go to hell for all I care...you didn't even ask me..you assumed and do you know how it freaking hurts to be ignored by someone when you're trying to talk to them
How will you even know...you have no feelings "
And the room became silent for about five minutes
"I'm sorry " I just looked at him and i removed my shoes and I was now going to the closet with my sprained amkle and I felt someone hugging me from behind
"Babygirl I'm sorry.,,I did not mean to hurt you....I was just mad when you smiled to him and you maintained eye contact with him and you went out with him "
"There is something called politeness and friendliness Aiden if you don't know "
"I'm sorry " and I rolled my eyes before smiling and I faced him
I saw sincerity in his eyes "just promise me you'll not assume anything without asking me "
"I promise " "Good boy " and i smiled before he hugged me "I missed you so much "
"I know " and I smiled "are you okay...you ankle " "to be honest no...it hurts "
"Okayyyy" and he freaking carried me like a bride "aidennnnnnnnnnnnnm"
And I laughed and we went into the bathroom and he put me on the bathroom counter
"Don't move " and he came with a first aid kit and he treated my ankle
And I hit him on the head "owww...what was that for " "Because you caused all this "
And he touched his head "That hurts tho" and I pulled my tongue out on him
"The next time you pull your tongue out like that again...you will not be able to put it in again because it will be replaced by some thing else "
"What do you mean " and he smiled "you don't want to know " and I looked away blushing
"My turn " "for " "To clean your knuckles " "Oh I thought you wanted to do something else for me "
And I looked at him weirdly before I cleaned his wounds before we showered
Separately by the way but Aiden was sneezing all through his shower....continously
I heard
After showering we went to the room and he continued sneezing "are you okay "
"Yeah " and he sneezed again "Okay....I have something to discuss with you "
"Yes? " "That lady You fired came here today...i don't remember her name "
"Why" and I explained everything to him
"First it was Elijah now her " "What do you mean Elijah " and I explained again
"Okayy....something is definitely up...I can tell" "Just be careful...I will recruit more guards here "
"Your safety also matters " "Don't worry about me babygirl...what are these muscles for"
"What can it do " "pin you down " "you're crazy " "for you " And I smiled
"Time for bed " "yes babygirl " and we layed down....
My head was on his chest and our legs were tangled together and I smiled
"Goodnight babygirl " and he kissed my head "Goodnight puchu " and I slept off peacefully whiles smiling
