I was walking around, wind hitting my face softly. I look around and saw Malina sitting across my friend, Safi.
They were laughing, talking about something. Malina saw me looking— she smirked.
"Once debilitated will always remain tainted." she mouthed.
I froze in anger, I ignored them and went straight to my boyfriend, Tanz's house.
When I reach there, I saw him sitting— his face grinning; his deep Turquoise-like eyes attached to the phone. His house was a mess, food waste were scattered, his cat, Tabby, was literally eating foods they shouldn't eat.
"Tanz! Why are you letting Tabby eat onions?!" I shouted and ran towards his cat to make it spit out the onion he ate.
"What's the problem about it? he wants it anyway," he said— eyes still locked on the screen, soft giggles came out from his mouth.
I looked at him and sighed, I stand up and clean the food on the floor. After some minutes— I finished cleaning.
"Babe, can you cook some food for me? I'm kinda hungry." he spoke in a soft tone, I look at him, he finally put his phone down.
He was staring at me, his eyes shining like a lucent Sapphire. I frown a for a few seconds,
"What do you want?" I said smiling softly,
"The usual?" He softly said and stand up to stretch,
"Is this a restaurant?" I said jokingly and giggled gently, his gaze attached to me,
"Well, it can be, you cook like a 5-star chef!" His daffy retort made me feel special for some reason, I snigger at his words,
"Whatever you say, mister." I said as I walked towards the kitchen,
I opened his fridge to see if there's still ingredients only for me to see he hasn't touched any of the stuff in the fridge.
"Do you not cook?" I said immediately glancing at him, he was already in front of me, his tall height tower behind me.
"I just order my own food," He spoke, looking at me confused,
"Then what about water? Do you even drink water?" I instantly asked, I stare at him in disbelief,
"I, uhm— order water along with the food." He said unsurely.
I sighed, "You drink water now, I'll start cooking." I said, taking out the ingredients for the food.
As I was about to cut the garlic, Tanz's phone rang. He answered it, I could hear the conversation. He was talking to Malina.
Malina's voice was shaky,
"I'm scared, what if—" Malina said, I stopped cutting the garlic and look at Tanz who looked concerned.
"Don't worry, just tell me what happened." Tanz said gently trying to comfort Malina.
"Wait, why are you trying to comfort her? isn't Safi with her?" I said feeling a bit annoyed,
Tanz looked at me with disappointment,
"Stop being insecure," He spoke coldly, I stare at him in shock,
I glare at him and walk towards the living room to take my bag, his gaze following me,
"Where are you going? stop being too sensitive, won't you?" he said following me,
"Cook by yourself." I harshly said and slammed the door.
