Breaking Free (Story One) *Unedited*

Chapter Eleven

The most obnoxious sound of an animal dying penetrated through my sleep fog brain. Good lord please just put it out of its misery. Rolling over I look at the clock on my nightstand. Noting that the time was nine thirty I roll over to see that Caden was gone. I guess he left with that thought I stumble out of bed. Walking through the hallway towards the bathroom I relieve my bladder . Coming out to get some water  I realize that the noise is getting louder and coming from my kitchen. Turning the corner I see the saddest sight I ever seen Caden making breakfast and singing to Bruno Mars Versace on the Floor unacceptably  off key and disrespectfully. "Oh tAkE iT oFf FoR mE fOr Me FoR mE FoR mE NoW gIRl." Nope nope no I well not stand here and listen to him butcher a good song. Continuing on my journey I was so close to making it to the door when  he turned around nearly dropping whatever he had cooked. "Jesus fucking christ were you trying to give me a heart attack?" Clutching his chest 

Trying so hard not to laugh at his reaction, "No, I just want to use the toilet." propping a hand on my hip I cock an eyebrow, " Did I just scare the big bad Beast?" 

Smirking at me he plated the delicious looking omelets, "Just go do your business before you miss out on my out of this world cooking." 

"I doubt that food is even all that good."

"Tell that to the drool I see coming out when I plated them." Cocking an eyebrow at me.

"Oh whatever." I reply shuffling to get ready for the day. Hearing his deep rumble of laughter behind me put a smile on my face. Coming back after doing my normal morning routine I sat down to taste this quote on route out of this world omelets. "Be prepared to be amazed." was his big announcement as I walk through the door. Looking at the coffee table I see a wonderful meal laid out. He has a plate of fresh fruits cut, orange juice, water, coffee, the omelettes, and even waffles. "What did you do?" My mouth watering at the best looking food I seen in awhile. It was almost close to what my aunt used to make but she always added oatmeal or grits. I really needed to call her after I ate and kicked him to the curb. Walking to sit down on the couch he glances over at me and smiles. An actual smile that made me freeze in my steps his face just lights up replacing that ugly permeant scowl of his. 

"I made us breakfast." Grabbing the syrup from the top of my shelf he saunters back to the island table as well. 

Shaking off the trance I was in watching him, "I see that but why?"

"Because it's an important meal of the day and I was told you normally skip it." Who told him that? Annoyance creeps in as I realize that Maria and Ginger betrayed me and told him my business. "It's not that I skip eating breakfast I just don't have time to eat it."

Shaking his head at me he sat down and started to make his plate. Following his lead I doctored my plate with everything he made. Eating in silence sounded like such a great idea until I took a bite out of the waffles. Letting out a loud moan of satisfaction from the foodgasm I just had. If I died today and this was the last meal I ever had I would definitely die in ultimate peace with this being the last meal. "That good huh?" his mocking tone came through interrupting my transcendence into heaven. After finishing my bite of food and swallowing it down I play it off. No need to give him a bigger head than he already has. Cleaning my throat I answer, "They're okay." Throwing his head back he lets out his rumble of laughter.  Rolling my eyes at him I continue to eat his delicious meal. After helping him clean everything he leaves and I head back into my room to get dressed and start off on  a few assignments. 

Getting lost in the world of nursing videos, note taking, reading, and highlighting. I forgot to call my aunt until about three in the afternoon. Taking a break from it all I called her on my way to get a bottle of water from the kitchen. "Hey baby, what's wrong?" came her voice booming through the speakers. Letting out a light chuckle I really miss her and her wild assumptions. "Nothing, I'm just checking in." Though I desperately wanted to tell her I miss her more than ever. A lump started to form eyes slightly misting if I let on how I felt she would cut her trip short and be on the first plane back. She deserved this time to herself and I refused to make her feel bad for finally being able to follow her Eat,Prey, Love journey. Putting the phone on mute I sniffled and cleared my throat.
