“By what time did you slept yesterday?” Dorothy asked.

“I am not sure, please where is my food?” Mia replied.

“Why didn’t you sleep early?” Dorothy asked.

“I forgot about the assignment they gave to us, I was searching for something in my bag last night then saw it and started doing it” Mia replied.

“Give yourself a round of applause, you did well” Dorothy said.

“Don’t blame me, I was so busy lately” she replied.

“Busy doing what Mia?, you weren’t busy since this week” Dorothy asked.

“I forgot it that is why I didnt write it, enough of the question, please where is my food? I am hungry” she asked.

“The maids are still preparing food in the kitchen” Dorothy replied.

“Ok, let me go there” Mia said, stood up from her chair and went out of the dinning room.

” I thought that you were the person preparing the food?” Calvin asked.

“No, I just prepared the porridge” Dorothy replied.

“Ok tell them to bring my own to my room after they are done” Calvin said standing up.

“You are going to your room to work right?, why are you such a workaholic?” Dorothy asked and held his hand.

“No, I am not going there to work but to rest, love you” Calvin said, bent down and pecked her lips.

Dorothy stared at him as he walked out of the room, “and some people said that marriage isn’t sweet, so far mine has been so blissful” Dorothy thought touching her lips.

She came out of the dinning room too and went straight to the kitchen.

“I knew that you would be doing this” she said when she came into the kitchen and saw Mia eating.

“You want me to die of hunger or what?” Mia asked with her mouth full.

“No continue eating your food” Dorothy said.

“Is the food ready?” She asked the maid preparing the food.

“Yes ma’am” the maid replied.

“Dish Calvin’s own out, I will be taking it to him” Dorothy said to the maid.

“Ok ma” the maid replied and dished out the food for her.

Dorothy collected the food and went to Calvin’s room.

“Who is that?” Calvin asked when she knocked at the door.

“It is me” Dorothy replied faking her voice.

“You who?” Calvin asked again.

“I am one of the maids, I brought your food” Dorothy replied faking her voice again.

“Come in” Calvin said and she opened the door and went in.

“I knew it, I knew that you would be working here !” Dorothy exclaimed when she entered the room and saw Calvin working on his laptop.

“Shit !, Doll it is you why didn’t I recognized your voice?” He said and closed the laptop.

“I changed my voice when answering you because I wanted to know what you were doing inside the room” Dorothy replied and placed his food on the table.

“That is very tricky Doll” Calvin said and got out of the bed and came to the table.

“Eat you food, rest and stop working for now till you are well” Dorothy said.

“I am well and the work is just remaining a little” Calvin replied and started eating.

“Maybe I can help you out with it” she said and went towards the bed where Calvin kept his laptop.

“No don’t touch it !” He shouted and Dorothy stopped and looked at him.

“I am not gonna break it or destroy it so relax” she said.

“Sorry about that, don’t worry I will finish it myself later” Calvin said.

“Okay I pretty sure that I won’t understand anything there” she said and came back to the table.

“Have you eaten?” Calvin asked.

“No I will after you are done” Dorothy replied.

“Go and eat Doll” Calvin said.

“I will go after you…”

“Go now” he interrupted.

“Okay but make sure that you finish your food before working again and don’t work too long” she ordered.

“Yes ma, I won’t” Calvin replied.

“Good” Dorothy said and walked out of the room.

“Gosh Doro, I am been looking for you everywhere” Mia said when she met Dorothy going towards the kitchen.

“What’s up?” Dorothy asked.

Mia came closer and whispered something on her ear.

“That would be after I am done eating” Dorothy said.

“Yes take all the time but not too much time” Mia said. “Call me when you are done, I will be outside” she added.

“Sure” Dorothy replied and Mia walked away. Dorothy then went to the kitchen and dished out her food and started eating there.

“This would be the last time I am going to teach you this so listen attentively” Dorothy said.Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“Yes ma” Mia replied.

“To prepare the perfect chicken soup for a sick person, you will need your chicken meat, cumin powder, coriander powder, garlic, ginger and some veggies” Dorothy began.

“There is no need to put salt or pepper?” Mia asked.

“Is there any food in this world that those two ingredients is not used in preparing?” Dorothy asked back.

“I am not really sure, maybe all” Mia replied.

“Exactly I didn’t mention it because they are already in the picture, this ones that I called will make the chicken soup good for a sick person” Dorothy said.

“Do you understand what I am saying?” She asked.

“Yes I understood” Mia replied.

“Let’s start by boiling the chicken” Dorothy said and started washing the chicken for cooking.

“Hmm it smell so delicious” Mia said when the chicken soup was ready to be served.

“Have a taste” Dorothy said and gave her a spoon.

“Wow so delicious” she said when she tasted it.

“Well compliment to the chef, I am absolutely amazing” Dorothy said.

Mia took one of the chicken and ate, “this is so amazing, even the chicken is so sweet and tender” she said.

“At this rate, I am going to finish it before taking it to Levi” Mia said.

“But it is too much, will Levi finish all of this?” Mia asked.

“Well I am going with you to the hospital to see my father-in-law” Dorothy replied.

“Wait your father-in-law is in the hospital?” Mia asked surprised.

“Yes he also went to the burial but his injuries are also minor” Dorothy replied.

“Let me get the flasks and dished it out” Dorothy said and went to the cupboard to get the flasks.

She brought two flasks out and dished the chicken soup in both of them.

“I am eating this one” Mia said when she looked into the pot saw that there was still little in it, after Dorothy dished out the chicken soup and covered the flask.

“Go and prepare so we can go now that it is hot” Dorothy said placing the flasks beside Mia.

“I am going to my room” she added and left the kitchen.

Mia also joined Dorothy in her room and they both prepared together and came out of the room.

“Go and get the food from the kit kitchen” Dorothy said to Mia when they were about passing the kitchen door.

“Yes madam” Mia replied and went to get the flasks.

“You are now ordering me around Doro, I don’t really like it” Mia said when they were waiting for the driver to get the car.

“So I should drop these things that I am carrying and go and get it while you are not carrying anything?” Dorothy asked.

“Oh that’s right, I forgot that you were carrying the fruits and flowers” Mia said.

“You should really visit a doctor about this your forgetting something, it is getting too much” Dorothy said.

“It is a normal thing don’t worry, oh my goodness look at that car !” Mia exclaimed as the driver drive out a red car out of the garage.

It was the one that Dorothy and Calvin went to church with on that Sunday.

“Yes, that reminds me, I didn’t tell my Honey pie that I am going out” Dorothy said ran back into the house.

“After she will say that I am acting childish when she is the master of it” Mia said.

“What is it Doll?” Calvin asked when Dorothy came running into his room.

“Nothing I just wanted to tell you that I am going to the hospital to visit your father” Dorothy panted.

“Come here Doll” Calvin said to her, she came and sat beside him at the bed.

“Is that why you were running?” He asked.

“Yes I couldn’t go without telling you” she replied.

“Ah my sweet Doll” he said and gave her a warm hug.

“I wish that we can stay like this forever” Dorothy said.

“That’s a good idea, let’s do that” Calvin replied.

“It is not going to work now, I need to visit your father and Mia is waiting for me outside” Dorothy said.

“Maybe we can do it when you come back” Calvin suggested.

“Oh maybe we can leave it on Sunday and use it as our date” Dorothy replied.
