I went straight back to my house immediately after the meeting with Amanda. I opened the door to the house. As soon as I entered, my nose was assaulted with smell of burnt. Something was burning.
I quickly dropped my bag and ran to the kictchen. The whole place was filled with smoke. Adrian was sitting on the kictchen floor with fire extinguisher spray all over his body. How did it get to his body? He is way too careless. Still I am glad he is fine.
"Adrian, what happened" I asked him. He raise his head up and looked at me.
" I was cooking but I burned the food" he says and forgot to add that he almost burned the kictchen too.
" I hope you are alright" I kneeled down to check on him. This was all my fault. I f I had not jokingly told him to cook something for me to eat, he wouldn't have done this. I shouldn't have been too hard on him.
" Let get you to the bathroom" I say as I carried him in my arm. He didn't struggle, probably too shock to complain. I carried him up the stairs to his bathroom.
" You can leave me here, I can take care of myself" he says. I was glad that he has recovered from the shock.
" Okay, I will, just let me set the bath water" I say. He did not say anything so I set his water and left the room.
I walked back to the kitchen. The kitchen was messy all over. The new housekeeper that I had sent for, will be arriving later this week. I know that I never told Adrian that there will be a new housekeeper. He must be so stress out thinking that I have truly left every house chores for him.
I went to my room to change my clothes. I came back to the kitchen and cleaned the mess until I was satisfied with it. I know Adrian must be hungry. I went over to the fridge to look for what to prepare but everything has finish. I need to restock the fridge. But that can wait. I went back to Adrian room door and knocked on it.
" Yes, come in " I heard him say. I opened the door a bit and sees him sitting on the chair in front of the mirror. He is wearing a t-shirt and a three quarter trouser. He looks okay now.
" There is nothing in the house for eating. I want to order pizza. Are you okay with it? " I asked him.
" Yes that's fine " he answered.
" Alright, let me go place the order " I say and closed the door. I took my phone and call the restaurant and place the order.

We ate the pizza this afternoon but there was still the problem of no food in the house. Adrian was currently sitting in the parlor chair watching the television. I think I will have to go and buy the food stuffs by myself. I have given him enough trouble already.
"Adrian, I am going out" I say to him.
He turned his head away from the television and replied me " I thought you were done with wor?"
" I am going to buy food stuff that we need" I answered him.
" No, let me go buy it" he argued. I think he is feeling guilty about the kitchen incident.
" Don't worry, I can handle it" I insisted. I really don't want to bother him. I have no intention of making him overwork.
" I know I wasted a lot of food stuff earlier so please let me go and buy it " he pleased. What do I do?
" How about we go together and buy it?" I suggest. I know he will reject.
" Then let do that" he agreed. I thought he hated me or maybe it is because he is really feeling guilty about almost burning the kitchen.
" Okay, let go then" I say.
