"Go away?! Where are you going?!" I asked.
Atoosa closed the refrigerator door, put a chicken on the table with a knife. asking for my help.
"A few neighborhoods below,"
"Why?!" I asked. Holding the chicken for shredding.
"It's too expensive for me. It's also big,"
Atoosa was a little distressed. doesn't like to talk about her financial problems.
"I can lend you money if you want," I said.
"No need, but thanks anyway,"
It had been a week since Atoosa moved and I missed her. It was 5 pm. At this time, I would usually go to her house and cook dinner together. She loved cooking. always wanted to be the chef of a big restaurant.
Atusa was like a housewife. Her house was always clean, neat and fragrant. She liked to have dinner at her house with me. The bastear she is going to marry is very lucky. A kind and beautiful woman with wonderful cooking. Does he want more?
One day Atusa called me and said someone wants to come to buy the house and asked me to show him the house. Atoosa was in the hospital because of her mother's illness and could not come. She had already given me a spare key.
Atoosa didn't rent this house but bought it. Her parents had given it to her as a birthday present. They were rich. But when Atoosa refused to force them to marry an acquaintance, everything went awry.
Atoosa's parents were divorced and her father had remarried. Apparently, her step mother was not a good woman. She controlled Atoosa's father and didn't allow him to have much contact with Atoosa's mother. For this reason, Atoosa's father did not even know that his ex-wife was in the hospital.
Anyway. Everyone has their own complicated life. Let's continue the story. It's getting interesting.
An hour after Atusa's call, someone rang my doorbell. He was the buyer of the house. I took the spare key, fixed my hair a bit and put on my towel. I had just come from the shower and my body was wet.
I opened the door without looking outside and almost had a stroke. Detective Edwin Horabin was standing in front of me.
"Miss Elizabeth Adling?!" he asked with a confident smile.
"Ye…yes," I said, My breath was trapped in my chest.
Why is he here?! Did he find me so quickly?
"Hello, my name is Edwin Horabin. I'm here to visit the house,"
Oh, so he's a home buyer. This is very bad. Didn't he suspect something and deliberately came to be by my side? It doesn't matter right now. I have to act normal.
"Nice to meet you,"
We went inside the house. It was interesting that he didn't pay attention to me at all. From the moment we entered the house, he didn't look at me even once. Does he know something and doesn't want me to know?!
Detective Horabin had a simple appearance. Gray eyes, tall and athletic body. His clothes were normal and his hair was long and straight.
"Persian carpet!" He looked at the carpet.
"Yes"
"Did you know the oldest carpet in the world is Persian?" He said. Without looking at me.
Of course I know. I'm a genius! He thinks he's smarter than me?! It is better to think like that. I have to show myself less intelligent.
"I did not"
I didn't know why he didn't look at me! No man has ever stolen his gaze from me. Is he gay?! I looked at him thoughtfully.
"You probably thinking that Where do you think you saw me?" He said. Still not looking.
"Your face is very familiar,"
"You probably saw me on TV. I am the detective of the Black Widow case,"
"Oh"
We looked at the rest of the house. Everything was clean. We reached the bedroom. I don't know why being with him in this room was bothering me. I have never been like this before. It was the first time that I had unintentionally stared at the bed and imagined myself on it.
"looks good," The detective touched the bed.
"Yes. I'm sure your girlfriend will like this bed,"
What ridiculous thing did I say?! ?! What's wrong with me, why am I acting so dumb?!
"I don't have girlfriend miss Adling"
For the first time the detective looked at me. I freaked out, didn't know what to say and what to do!
"I don't have a boyfriend either" I said hurry-scurry.
Oh god, kill me now! Why am I talking like this?! Better to shut up.
"Interesting," the detective said with a simple smile.
After we saw the house, the detective said he would buy the house. He said he liked the house and everything around it.
"Miss Adling, may I say something?!"
"Sure"
"Please wear a suitable outfit next time so that we can talk more easily,"
I looked me. Wet hair and wet body covered with a thin towel. A towel that was a little lower than my knees. It was the first time that it was important for someone to not see my body. Men usually don't say anything in such situations and keep staring at the body. disgusting.
"I'm… sorry. Didn't time to change,"
The detective left and I went home and stood in front of the mirror to see what was wrong with my appearance. The towel was so thin that you could see the back of it with a little precision and it was so short that it didn't cover not only my legs but also part of my breast. That is why the detective didn't pay attention to me?! I don't think there is a man in the world who is such a gentleman. I'm sure there was another reason.
