Chapter 5
I checked the clock. Its 6:59. I woke up early, though its Saturday. Speaking of Saturday. Its Saturday today! At least I won't see his face. I suddenly felt hungry. I haven't eaten dinner last night, I was too exhausted. Why? That idiot just made me do this and do that, the whole day. No. The WHOLE WEEK!
And so, I went out and look for food in the kitchen. I was walking in the staircase when I noticed my li'l brother with someone in the living room. They're playing chess. I cannot see the face of the man with my brother because I was standing behind him. But I can tell that it's not my dad. Im sure of that. This is the first time that Mikee brought a visitor in our house. Odd.
"Why so early brother?" I asked, making my voice a little loud. "and whom are you with?'' I continued to ask.
The man turned around and faced me.
"Hello" he said. He was smiling! Guess who? Kei Takishima.
"What are you…d-doing here?"
He laughed. "Have you tried looking yourself in the mirror?"
"What?" That's when I noticed that I forgot to fix myself. My hair is a mess. I am wearing pajamas. What the heck! I immediately got back to my room. That was embarrassing! I fixed myself. Then I opened the door.
"Now what are you doing here?" Raising my one eyebrow.
"I thought you were excited that you forgo—''
"What are you doing here?" I repeated.
"Im here to teach you how to cook".
I got excited. "Great! I'll tell you the way to the kitchen". I smiled. Don't know why? It was like my life was full of hope again.
"Mood swings?"
"Shut up!" I was still smiling.
-"What's this?" He looked shock.
"Kitchen". I simply answered.
"Well it doesn't look like it is. What with the wall covered with metal?"
"Stop asking questions. Let's start". I was kinda irritated. I know, the kitchen really do look weird. It was covered with metal to prevent me from destroying the whole house in case I messed up. My parents still care for me..or the house.
"Let's start with the basics". He said. BLAH BLAH BLAH BLAH.
We're making a pan cake. I did the mixing. He scratched his head. "Its not like that..how many times am I gonna tell you.." He went to my back and held my right hand to GUIDE me. "..do it slowly if you don't know how to do it fast and I said in circular motion..you're spilling!" he continued lecturing me.
"Yeah, I got it, I got it. Now, move a li'l farther away from me. Im claustrophobic." I said. I was feeling uneasy.
He followed. After a few seconds..
"Who's Toby?"
"My…"
"Boyfriend?"
I frowned.
"So, he really is your boyfriend!"
I rolled my eyes. I gave him an its-none-of-your-business-look.
"Seriously?"
"Toby!" I said, as I looked behind me. I rushed towards him.
"A rat?"
"yeah. MY BOYFRIEND." I gave him a sarcastic smile.
He laughed.
"Laugh at yourself. Paranoid."
"I thought Toby is a monkey." He continued laughing.
".." I started stabbing the bowl with the spoon.
"Hey, stop that it will.."
CRACK
The bowl was divided into two.
