“Come here.” I commanded. I won’t go there to serve her, she have to come here and the food won’t come to her.

“It’s about to. How about helping me? Go and get some rice for the both of us, you’ll never know after you put the plates on the table this is done.”

“What do you cook?” she asks.

I looked at my phone where I search the recipe. “It says here Tinola.” I replied.
