Maria was preparing food for them. She wanted to cook for Tobias.
She never seen Tobias since their argument.
She felt depressed, she never thought they will end up like this again.
After cooking and preparing the table, she went upstairs to call Tobias. She was fidgeting while walking to his door.
She knocked 3 times.
"come in"
'what? I shall call him from here.'
She never went inside, instead she called him.
"dinners ready!"
"I can't hear you!"
he shouted from inside, was he deaf?!
"I said dinners ready!"
she increased the volume of her voice.
"what?!"
was he that deaf? She even shouted to all her might! She irritatedly pushed open the door to shout at his face.
This man was really getting to her nerves!
"I said...!"
She stopped abruptly. Her eyes popped out from its socket for what she saw.
Tobias the jerk, was standing 2 meters away from her. It's impossible he didn't heard her!
He was wearing a towel on his waist. Only a towel! It seemed he just finished taking his bath, the water dripping from his hair to his waist.
She watched as one drop rolled from his head to his six pack yummy abs, to his V line!
She chewed her saliva. Is he tempting her?!
Tobias walked slowly towards her. She felt her face was on fire!
"I'm sorry, I didn't...me- mean to... to come inside, but yo-you said you....can't hear ...me."
she stuttered, can't take her eyes off him.
Dang! He was getting closer!
He stopped inches away from her and lift his right arm towards her face.
'what the F was he doing?!'
she shouted in her mind.
"your salivating."
he wiped the imaginary saliva on Maria's face. He was smiling seductively at her!
She immediately slap his hand and step backwards. She knew that Tobias was just teasing her! Her face blushed even more!
"you idiot! put on some clothes, dinners ready!"
she turned around to cover her face.
She walked hastily towards the door.
"you don't want to watched me?"
This man!
"talked again, and you're dead!"
She went out, closed the door hardly.
Tobias smiled widely.
He was happy to know that Maria still called him despite their argument earlier. He felt guilty for telling her those words, he just can't helped it.
He was jealous, yes!
Tobias went downstairs and to the kitchen.
He saw Maria was sitting patiently, not eating.
He cleared his throat to get her attention, when she looked up, he saw her crimson red face.
He smiled at him, and seated on the other chair, on Maria's front.
"why'd you never started eating?"
"I want to eat with you."
"why?"
"because it's boring."
Tobias put food on her plate first.
"i can do it myself."
she said, trying to take the bowl of rice from him. But he prevented her from doing that.
"but I want to, please just let me?"
Maria just stay still and let him do what he pleased.
"bout earlier, I'm so sorry. I just don't want you to be friends with him."
he scratched the back of his neck.
"I never said that we're friends."
she speak, looking seriously at him.
Tobias kept silent, he was ashamed that he did over react.
"I am keeping my promise, so you have nothing to worry."
