Chapter 55
I was starving, I quickly picked up the phone and dialled the kitchen " hello Lizzy". Lizzy was the maid that tried to stop me earlier today when I wanted to make something for myself and Drey. They were chefs in charge of cooking the food, but they maids were in charge of cleaning the kitchen and sometimes helps make light meals " hello madam, how may I be of help to you" she asked. " Is dinner ready?" I asked " it'll be ready in the next thirty minutes". I pouted my lips and held my stomach " Lizzy please can you quickly fix me noodle?" " Ok ma, I'll bring it up shortly" she said and hung up.
I sat on the couch, wondering where Drey was.. I reminisced on what happened between us earlier, I smiled and closed my eyes to visualize every moment from the kisses to the caresing then to the love we made passionately... I was re- living the moment when I heard the doorbell I was jerked back to reality I walked to the door and found Lizzy, she pushed in the trolley and I was surprised because I only asked her to fix me a plate of noodles. ' Lizzy why are you rolling in the trolley?" " I only asked for a plate of noodles" " sir Drey asked me to make all these food in addition to the noodles ma'am" she replied as she bowed her head. " And where is Drey?" "Downstairs having a discussion with his parents." I nodded my head " you may leave Lizzy" she walked to the door, I turned and said " thank you" she just bowed her head and left.
I opened the food, it was a plate of noodles and chicken soup with some fruits and vegetables. I smiled as I carried the food to the dinning I sat to devour the food, I ate the noodles and chicken soup along side the veggies, I cleared my plate and drank some water and later ate some fruits... I was filled up. I returned to the couch took my phone and dialled Shyla's number and we talked for a while, I asked after my mom and she told me mom was planning on opening a restaurant and she had even taken up catering classes.
"Wow that's more like her" I said ". " yeah..she has been so excited about this" Shyla said " she barely even sleep this days because of too much excitement" . I smiled " thank you so much Shyla, you have been so good to I and my mother ." oh come on, you're like a sister to me" " your mother is my mother".
After the call I heard someone come into the room, i stood up and went to see who it was. " Drey it's you" I said as I hugged him , " he pecked my forehead and said " yes love it's me". Drey and I sat on the couch with my head resting on his chest. He caressed my head " Ari there's something I need to tell you" I sat up and looked into his eyes " what is it?"
I could see worry written all over his face and I was concerned, I didn't know what he wanted to tell me but I knew it was something that really bothered him, I was really getting concerned. He paused for a while and looked at me then he spoke " first I want to tell you about my past".
