Getting out of the bathroom, Christopher was half naked. With a towel wrapped around on his wet torso loosely he walked out towards his closet calmly when suddenly someone barged inside his room without even bothering to knock.
His attention was diverted by the man of young 25 who had serious expressions drawn on his features with a look of unpleasantness.
Joshua Ravero...
Christopher's boon friend was he.
The one he called to cook tonight...
"Fuck you Chris, you had a woman over and you didn't even tell me!"
Joshua cursed obviously being taken aback while meeting Serena downstairs.
He wasn't expecting anyone here, to be hon
Serena arranged the last utensil on the dining table after laying the dishes on the middle with table manners, when soon the door of Christopher's room opened.Getting out of the room, the sound of footsteps indicated the two men.Christopher walked and behind him, his boon friend Joshua followed quietly.Awkward was he.While chewing his lower lip in silent guilt to discover the tragic identity of Serena with whom he spoke to earlier, he absolutely had no knowledge about who she was before...Joshua was indeed feeling bad for her.Christopher approached the dining with no formality before pulling the head chair and se
Finishing the dinner, the other two got up from their seats to proceed towards the kitchen again to wash the dishes.Giving a hand by holding the dishes Joshua helped Serena from behind who was holding Christopher's half completed meal.Serena leaded towards the sink first before putting on an apron and starting to wash the dirty utensils.Joshua got alerted by the sound of the water."Hey, let me do it!"Joshua offered like a gentleman while shaking her head off Serena politely refused to take his help."You have done enough by making dinner for us all. Let me do it!"Serena replied with a small smile decorated on her feature hinting it would be fine with her.
NEXT MORNINGSerena got out of her room tying her long wavy hair up into a messy bun while at that very time Christopher's room unlocked in the opposite, startling Serena.Wearing an arrogant silence like usual times Christopher crossed her ways as if he didn't even see her but the case was not same with Serena who decided to be polite.She greeted him, gaining his attention."Good Morning Brother-in-law!"But obviously not following the same gesture, Christopher just hummed blankly to her with a single nod.Serena didn't hold any complain against his behaviour as she knew that he was
Her chocolate brown eyes looked around her silent surrounding in judgement without any word. Soon sighing tiredly she massaged her nape drawing her head a little to the side of right.She was exhausted after cleaning the entire leaving room in a row after making the breakfast and getting done with the kitchen chores.Though the apartment needed no more modifications for her but yet she refused to do nothing and sit back.She stubbornly found every little work, wanting to keep herself busy somehow. That is all she had been doing since last few days to be honest.Acknowledging the fact that her brother-in-law wasn't one person of home, Serena knew he wasn't going to mind her doing nothing at all.
"Would you mind start speaking or you intend to stand like a statue for another hour?"Christopher commented blankly causing Serena to widen her eyes out of suddenness of his words, shaking her head at his statement, she looked at him right in the eyes with little dare."A-Actually about, Mr.Kevin-..."She shuttered strangely out of nervousness for him.But Christopher was fast enough to catch where she was pointing at already yet preventing himself to comment upon the same matter just yet, he decided to let her finish first.Serena cleared her throat wanting to sound much more confident and better next, she watched her brother-in-law looking at her intensely without any reaction again.
"Get ready at 6 then, I will come and get you."Christopher announced for Serena which caused her to instantly draw a smile on her face.She never smiled like that in front of him before...Witnessing her so happy for the very first time like that, Christopher was mesmerised for a minute or two.He was surprised.She sure had one jolly smile but it was a lot more different than her polite or formal smile that she always gave him previously.Even he couldn't believe what he was seeing because since she started living with him, she was never seen such happy before.
Christopher had adopted the spoiled lifestyle of the big city life which was indeed a thing to worry about him.Serena sighed a long breath before first starting to work from the messy wardrobe of her brother-in-law. Getting everything out of it, she acknowledged that the wardrobe needed some hands first.Now that Serena wondered, Christopher never got his clothes out for laundry before, it has always been her who used the laundry all by herself as she never once witnessed him taking out his garments for a wash or to get it ironed either.Serena collected almost another mountain of garments in the same process with heavy struggle before getting all that together at the previous place.She next closed the empty wardrobe and turned her heels towards the othe
"JESUS CHRIST!"Letting out a loud yelp of shock and terror while facing the accident, Serena was about to trip backwards from the effect of the sudden bump with Christopher about whom she had no knowledge, was standing at the threshold of her doorway at all.She misbalanced herself facing an extreme shock as she expected nothing like that.Christopher actively noticed her tripping down and acted quick enough to catch her before facing a huge accident.Taking his arm out to help her out, he snaked it behind Serena's waist without thinking much about the situation properly while she still shouted out loud in horror to get injured.The other minute she instead felt stuck in the air being held tightly, Serena felt herself being captured by someone's ho
