Chapter 8 Problem Couple
- Bryan's Pov:
- I popped my eyes out in shock....
- "What? I should sleep in the sitting room?" I asked half yelling.
- "You heard me... If you don't want to make use of the sitting room then sleep in the guest room" She said hugging the pillow tight.
- I stared at her as I burned up in annoyance.
- What kind of trouble is this?
- "Why would I sleep in the guest room? It's too dusty and besides this is my house I sleep in the masters bedroom" I said as she snored loudly.
- "If it's dusty then clean the room.... Good night!" She said as she pushed me away.
- I fumed in anger as I quickly dragged her by her two legs down the bed as she screamed aloud.
- "Let me go!" She cried as she jumped on me and we fell on the bed together.
- She fell on top of my body and sprang up immediately.
- "Get out Arianna... Use the guest room" I said as I tried pushing her but she gripped the wardrobe.
- "No Bryan..... You should leave the room for me" She said.
- "No you leave" I said as we kept arguing.
- Suddenly she stopped and stood in front of me in akimbo.
- "Fine... You said I should leave right?" She asked with a giving up tone and that excited me.
- "Yeah... Leave!" I said rolling my eyes.
- "OK... I'll pack my stuff and luggage back to my house" She said as she walked to the wardrobe and threw it open.
- "What are you doing?" I asked anxiously
- "Are you blind? Isn't it obvious? Am done... You asked me to leave" She said as I gasped.
- "What I meant was leave the room" I said as I walked towards her.
- "No freaking way... You need me more than I need you Bryan so you are gonna do whatever I want not what you want" She said as I blinked my eyes.
- "What?" I screamed crazily
- "Are you in OR out? Do you want me to leave... You will loose the whole money once I step outta here" She said as I gulped hard.
- "What the fvck is your problem? Are you blackmailing me?" I said as I breathed heavily.
- "Call it whatever you like Bryan" She said rolling her eyes.
- "Whatever! You can have the room" I said as she smiled mischievously.
- She picked up the pillow and threw it on me.
- "Shoo.... Good night or even bad night if you wish" She said as I sighed at her picking up the pillow and walked out angrily.
- "Don't forget to shut the door behind you" She said already snoring.
- "Arrrgghhh...." I groaned angrily as I slammed the door behind me.
- I walked to the sitting room with the pillow under my arm.
- Gosh....
- That Arianna is nothing but trouble for me!
- How do I even sleep here?
- I can't believe am not sleeping on a soft bouncy bed as usual.
- I placed the pillow on the couch and lay on it.
- "Ahhh... Am not comfortable at all" I said to myself rolling from one corner of couch to another.
- This is all that crazy wife of mine's fault.
- The whole night,,, I didn't stop falling from the couch each time I sleeps off.
- So annoying.
- Arianna's Pov:
- The sun rays directly from my window to my eyes as I rubbed my eyes tiredly.
- I yawned hungrily as I opened my weak eyes.
- I got down from the bed as I yanked the duvet off my body.
- I walked straight to the bathroom.
- And washed my face thoroughly before applying some toothpaste on my toothbrush.
- I brushed my teeth.
- "Am really hungry!" I yawned again as I filled the bathtub with warm soapy water.
- I took a fresh warm shower.
- Hmm... Money is really very beautiful...
- Though I hate the fact am going to be here for 21 days with Mr grumpy.
- After taking a shower,,, I quickly put on my flimsy white gown and headed downstairs to the kitchen.
- I sighted Bryan sleeping on the couch in the sitting room with a blanket over him.
- I chuckled within me.
- "Serves him right" I giggled.
- I yawned again and again.
- I need to make some food for myself.
- ********
- I quickly put on my cooking apron and made for the crate of egg.
- I brought out six eggs and broke them into a clean bowl on the slab in front of me.
- I sliced the tomatoes and fresh scotch bonnet into it.
- With a little pinch of salt,,,,, I stirred the egg.
- Wanna learn how to cook too??
- You can come over...
- I was gonna make toasted bread and fried egg for breakfast.
- Am really hungry.
- Bryan's Pov:
- I rolled from the couch to the ground as I opened my eyes.
- "Ouch!" I groaned in pains as I struggled up.
- My whole body was aching badly already.
- That Arianna is so inhumane.
- Just then,,,,, I perceived a very appetizing aroma and my mouth watered as my stomach grumbled noisily.
- "What's that smell?" I asked no-one in particular as I quickly got up and walked towards the kitchen.
- The aroma was coming from the kitchen.
- But on my way to the kitchen,,,, I sighted Arianna seated on the dinning eating.
- I licked my lips as I walked towards her.
- But to my greatest surprise,,, it was only her food that's on the table.
- "Where's mine?" I asked not even greeting her and vice versa.
- She glared hard at me and kept mute still busy eating.
- That annoyed me the more.....
- "Are you deaf?" I yelled angrily as she sipped her mug of milky tea before turning to me.
- "Don't you know what is called table manners?" She snorted aloud.
- I felt like slapping her.
- "Whatever! where's mine?" I asked eagerly as she spooned some fried egg into her mouth.
- "And why should I prepare your food?" She snapped.
- My jaw dropped in astonishment.
- "Am your husband" I said immediately
- "Fake husband... Don't ever forget to put 'fake' it's important" She sighed
- I gulped hard.
- "And so what?" I managed to say
- "And so prepare your own breakfast" She said as I arched my eyebrows.
- "Huh?" I said as she scoffed.
- "You heard me..." She sneered
- "No way! I must eat yours..." I said as we started dragging the plate.
- "Let go of my food you rascal" She groaned.
- "I won't... Let go instead" I said as we continued dragging the plate.
- "WHAT'S GOING ON HERE?" A voice said from behind and we quickly turned around startled.
- We gasped in shock.
- It was GRANDMA..........
