He placed his hands on his belly, he knew he was hungry. He stood up and started for the kitchen. He opened the refrigerator, the temperature had dropped, the drinks were almost chilling over, so he switched it off and pulled a can of fruit juice out of it, and closed the refrigerator. He touched the can drink and felt its coldness, satisfied, he opened the can juice and sipped out of it. The liquid went through his throat chilling down. He closed his eyes as he sipped again in satisfaction. He opens his eyes a few seconds later and made for the sitting room. He pulls off his coat and drops the can-drink juice on the center table.
He could tell he needs some solid food to ease his hunger. He never loves eating junk food outside and the sad thought of sending Emaka, his house help pack in a hurry still hurt him. He knew it was a decision too hard for him to do especially when it was obvious, he won’t be having a quick replacement for her around.
