Chereads / Love For Imperfect Men / Chapter 14 - Cruel husband

Chapter 14 - Cruel husband

Mall City J

Behind me was currently Aileen who was busy grumbling. I could not help but smile amusedly and restrained myself from laughing because of Aileen who was now busy cursing me. 

"Pfft… Today I laughed a lot, just because of her behavior that was completely out of my mind," I thought while biting the inside of my cheek, trying to keep my laughter from bursting to the surface. 

Finally we arrived at the restaurant. We found an empty table and Aileen immediately put the shopping bags. For lunch, I fulfilled her request who said wanted to eat french fries, food that I hadn't eaten in a long time. 

"Ah! I can finally rest. I'm so tired. What a heavy shopping bag," Aileen grumbled as we sat comfortably on the chair. 

"Hmm... You're exaggerating, Ai. You've been complaining a lot, don't you want to be treated?" I said in a relaxed tone, reaping an annoyed snort from her and not forget the glare in his eyes. 

"Ok, now that I've seen a lot of her behavior. I can concluded, that apart from being naughty, Aileen also has a short emotional axis," I continued to myself.

"Hello! We are of different gender. You are a man who has physical strength, while I am a woman who is physically not as strong as you as a man who is said to be tough. Besides, you are very stingy. Just because I want to eat for free, I have to be a porter first," Aileen chirped as usual with her high-pitched voice, making us the subject of another spectacle around. 

"Aish... You! Can you not lower your voice? Not in the store, not in the restaurant, you must be tacky," I said and looked at Aileen with a sharp look, a look that usually would scare my subordinates but not Aileen. Instead she looked at me even more indifferently and with a sneer. 

"I don't care and I'm not tacky, Glenn," Aileen said casually. 

"Tsk." 

I didn't want to make the unclear fight between me and Aileen bigger which obviously would never end. So I stood up from my seat and decided to order food for the both of us. 

"Where are you going, Glenn?" Aileen asked, making me turn to her and sigh tiredly. 

"Do you want to eat or not?" I asked and she nodded enthusiastically. 

"Of course, Glenn! He-he," said Aileen, ending with laughter and smi-! 

Ah, No.. I mean her annoying grin, made me snort and continue my intention to order food for us. After all, right now Aileen was my responsibility. Well.... Though I was not sure if this was true purely out of responsibility. 

"Hm." 

"Thank you, Glenn!" 

I just waved my hand without looking at her and continued my steps towards the counter. Then, when I got there I immediately ordered a lot of packages. I hadn't eaten fast food in a long time, so I thought it would be okay to exceed my portion. Later, I would burn calories by exercising. 

"Good idea," I thought, agreeing with my own thoughts. 

Not long after, I walked back to the table we were at. From here I saw Aileen whose face was strange, as if something bad had happened. But, I didn't know what and again I couldn't ask carelessly. Because we had an agreement and one of them was not interfere in personal matters. 

"Whatever! That's none of my business," I thought with a shrug, then sat on the previous chair and made Aileen immediately change her face again as if nothing happened. 

"Here, eat it," I said as I put down a tray with various kinds of food, making her look at me and the food alternately with happy sparkling eyes.

"Woah! You order a lot, Glenn. This is all for me?" Aileen asked with god level confidence, which made me put on a straight face and she looked back at me with a quick blink of an eye, putting on a cute face that did look cute in my eyes. 

"Thank you, Glenn. I will not labeled you a cruel husband anymore. But the thing is-" 

"You are very confident. This is the portion I bought for myself three-quarters and this is your portion, a medium french fries just like your request. Didn't you say you wanted to eat french fries?" 

Aileen blinked even more with her mouth agape at my long sentence, which cut her words off with a cruel and cynical explanation for her. Seriously, I wanted to laugh at her reaction. 

Could we ended the laughing show for today. Whereas Aileen was miserable, but why was I actually happy to see her suffer. Maybe I had an another side and just realized that this was the expression I was looking for in a woman. 

Being miserable because of my pranks, maybe... Who knows. 

"I retract my words again. You are the most cruel, stingy and annoying husband on earth, no... even in this space universe for your future wife. Let's divorce," Aileen said with a flat face and this time I couldn't help but laugh. 

I laughed and shook my head in disbelief. 

"The space universe? Oh my... what a terrible sense of humor I have," I thought between laughs.

"Pffftt... Ha-ha-ha!" 

"Yeah, yeah.. Laugh all you want, Glenn. I curs- hmmpp..." 

With a pinch of fries she ordered, I gagged her mouth which always made me laugh but also used to curse me. Believed me, from my experience of two days with her, I had been sworn to death young several times by her. 

Annoying, right? 

I wished I could stuff her mouth with a sock. 

"You're so mean," Aileen said annoyed, with a mouth full of the fries I put in.

"You're fussy. You have a really sluggish mouth. Too much cursing this, and that. So is it really me or you who are evil?" I asked, then started eating without paying attention to Aileen who pouted her lips. 

"Huh, this is your-" 

"Here.. I'm not that bad, Ai. I have humanity, letting a kid like you starve, how can I bear it," I said as I handed her a jumbo sized beef burger. 

Aileen of course lit up happy to see what I gave her. She immediately took over the food in my hand, then smiled happily by showing her neat teeth in front of me, I mean grinning. 

"Thank you, Glenn. I take back again the label of a cruel husband. You are the best husband who married me. Next time buy it again," said Aileen at length and immediately teased me with her sweet words and not to forget her beautiful smile, which seemed to shine, making me secretly smile at her behavior which was once again beyond my mind.

"Hm, eat it. " I said trying not to care about her seduction. 

"Ok! I won't hesitate," Aileen said and immediately started eating voraciously, without shame or without covering up her reckless eating style. 

Women eat in bad style maybe a lot. But, I had never seen anything like Aileen. She looked radiant, even though I only bought her lunch in the form of fast food which costs not much. 

"It would be very dangerous, if I fell in love with her. But, I've only known her for two days," I thought while looking at Aileen with an uncertain heart.

To be continued.
