I felt different right from the moment I woke up. Felt refreshed and full of life and I felt I should do something different today.
I got up and went down to the kitchen. I wanted to make breakfast for Mar today.
I met the cook trying to arrange the groceries she had just gotten.
"You should take a day off"
"I did that, yesterday ma'am. Sir would be very upset and I don't want to lose my job."
"And I promise you that your job will be intact. Take a day off, I'll take care of him today"
The cook didn't want to just leave but after much persuasion, she agreed to go.
She showed me where all the ingredients I needed were and then finally left.
It was so difficult convincing her. At one point, I wanted to call Mar to come to talk to her but that would ruin my chances of surprising him. But I was glad she finally agreed to leave.
I quickly arranged the groceries she had bought and then took out what I needed to prepare the breakfast.
