After washing my hair he left and I washed up. I wore a big blue tee-shirt and black balengcias track before going to the room. Kel was still there typing something on his phone, he looked up when I got in and motioned for me to eat. I ate and took the medicine.
I was surprised Kel hadn’t left for work. His schedule was full today and he had a lot to do yet he stayed a bit to take care of me.
“I’d be leaving now, you should rest,” he said standing up
“I could come with you, I’m feeling better now,” I said, I was going to stay here alone, bored as hell.
“Just rest well West. Trust me you’re going to need it. You’d work a lot tomorrow.” with that said he left and I slept.
I let out a startled scream when I woke. In the room was a young girl I didn’t even know.
“Who are you and what are you doing here?” I asked
“I’m sorry to startle you Mrs Adrios. I’m Linda Mr Adrios sent me here to watch you till he gets back. He said you weren’t feeling too well.”
“He asked you to watch me?” I asked just to be sure and she nodded. Why would he do that?
“Can I ask you a question?” before I could reply she asked anyway. “Is it morning sickness, are you pregnant?”
I laughed hearing her questions, so she thought I was pregnant with Kel’s child, that’s not even possible. “No, I’m not, it’s just cramp,” I explained
“Oh. ” she sounded disappointed. “So it’s just cramps and he was so worried, I thought you were pregnant. He told me to make sure you take your medicine, sleep and eat. I shouldn’t disturb you and make sure you don’t do anything. He sounded so worried and it was just because of cramps. Gosh someone has to love me like this someday.”
If only she knew what we had was far from love. She sure did talk a lot, she looked to be eighteen or twenty and I had no idea why she would be working as a help. “So are you a help?”
“No my mom is. I’m just filling in for her because she’s sick. You have no idea how excited I am about meeting you. My classmates are going to be so envious. Could we maybe take pictures later? ”
I nodded and she left to do some things. I requested ice cream and cookies and just watched Riverdale and slept after that. It was evening by the time I woke up and decide to make dinner. I went to the kitchen to see Linda cleaning.
“Is there anything you want ma’am?” she asked as I walked in
“No, nothing. Please don’t call me ma’am, I’m too young for that Shayan is okay with me.” I said and she smiled.
“Do you want dinner or something?” she asked.
“Yeah. Let’s make dinner or something. Kel would soon be back.”
She went grocery shopping for some things and when she came back we started preparing dinner. By the time we were done, it was eight.
“Thank you so much for helping out,” I said hugging her
“You’re welcome,” she said smiling. I gave her some food and some money. She was reluctant to accept but later did.
I decided to check my phone since I hadn’t throughout the day. I went upstairs and saw my phone. There was a missed call from my mom and dad. A video call from Evie and a text from Kel.
Do you feel better now?
Yes. When are you coming back?
I waited for a reply but I didn’t get any. I decided to just freshen up. I wore a big black shirt with a mini short under and packed my hair in a messy bun. I waited for Kel to come home, I was hungry but I had to be a dutiful wife and wait for him. I called back everyone that called me. It was so good to see my parents were having a good time and Evie was so excited to show me all the fun things she did. I couldn’t wait for her to be back. I logged into my Instagram checking my notifications. I had lots of DMS and followers notification. I went through some of them, there were some from some celebs congratulating me on my wedding. I had even gotten a dm from an outstanding clothing line that wanted me to model their new collection. I even had offers from the hairstylist, makeup artists, designers name it. I felt honoured, for them to want me to work with them. I wasn’t okay with my body type, I had a lot of insecurities but for them to have taken interest in me was nice, it was a wonderful offer I’d love to accept.
A few minutes later the door opened and it was Kel. I stood up to greet him. He looked tense and angry so I just decided against it. I had waited an hour for him and I wasn’t expecting him to be in a sour mood. He walked past me as if he didn’t notice me.
“Wait up Adrios,” I said going after him.
“What do you want West? I don’t have time to talk to you.” he angrily said
“I made dinner for you, would you like to eat? ” I asked and he stared at me angrily
“I don’t have time for that. Get away West.” he angrily said
“What the hell is your problem? I’m the one on my period yet you’re the one acting like you are.” I angrily said, he looked at me for a while and just went up the stairs.
He just walked away, he ruined my mood already and I had to know what got him angry so I followed him.
“For God’s sake what’s your deal with me West?” he angrily asked
I wanted to reply angrily but decided against it. “Dinner I made dinner for you, for us. I’ve been waiting for you so we could eat, I made your favourite food too. You can freshen up and come back for dinner because my food and time aren’t going to waste.” I said the last sentence a bit harsh.
He said nothing and went upstairs, surprisingly he came down a few minutes later. I had already set the table so everything was set and he just sat down.
“Do you want to talk about it?” I asked filling his plate
“Mind your business West.” he angrily said hitting the fork on the table.
“Fine, fine,” I said raising my hands in the air.
I took my plates to the kitchen to eat there, why did I even care if he was angry. What got me angry was that I had made dinner for him, waiting for him to come home, it was crazy already but I guess I just wanted to repay him for this morning. I was eating my food in peace when he sat beside me. I ignored him eating quietly. None of us said anything, when I was done he pulled me back as I stood up and I just glared at him
“Thanks for dinner,” he said calmly and I nodded pulling my hand away from him.
“How do you feel now?” he asked and I just answered saying good drily.
After washing the plates I went to bed. As I settled in bed I heard a knock on the door. What does he want now?
“Come in. ” I said and he opened the door “What do you want now? ”
“I just wanted to make sure you’re okay.” he calmly answered. He was so confusing.
“I’m fine Adrios.”
“Okay goodnight,” he said then left.
Why do I feel like he wanted to say more than that?
