Arsenal can't really talk right now because of the food Stealth served him.
It's a burnt chicken that is still not cook inside. The chicken is a whole one and is cooked in the pan. And it came with a rice that is obviously burnt too.
"Haha... Sorry I don't really know how to cook. I want to try lang akala ko I'll do good this time hindi ko naman knows na it will get burnt and hindi siya luto sa inside." Stealth said while scratching the back of his head and is giving Arsenal an awkward smile.
"Nako okey lang kaso... Pano natin makakain to?" Arsenal said while checking the chicken.
Stealth leaned to the counter facing Arsenal who is across him.
"I'll order nalang haha" Stealth said and is about to pick up his phone but Arsenal stopped him.
"Ako nalang mag luluto. Sayang den kase to haha. Umupo ka na" Arsenal said and stand up to prepare the thing he need.
"Marunong ka magluto?"
"Oo tinuruan ako ng mom ko" Arsenal said.
"Ohh... What are you going to cook?" Stealth curiously asked.
"Manok siyempre." Arsenal said while busy cutting the whole chicken.
"No what I mean kase is the dish. " Stealth said and stand up and went beside Arsenal.
"Nothing special. I d-deep fry ko lang." Arsenal said while having a hard time cutting the Chicken.
"Ohh... Turuan moko?" Stealth asked.
"Pwede naman hiwain mo muna yung chicken. By parts ha like you know drum sticks tapos pakpak then so on." Arsenal said and reached for the apron he saw beside the cabinet. He made Stealth face him and puts the apron on Stealth's bulky but tall figure.
"How about you?" Stealth asked while pointing at Arsenal
"Me?" Arsenal asked while pointing at himself too.
"Hindi ka mag apron?" Stealth asked him.
Arsenal is about to speak but Stealth did not let him and get one of the apron that is hidden inside the cabinet. It's a gold-white apron that have a name on it. ' Mine '. Arsenal is about to do the tie himself but he stopped when he felt Stealth's hand trace his slim waist with it's hands and tied the knot for him.
Arsenal looked at Stealth in surprise but he noticed Stealth's apron it says. ' Yours '. He feel a little bit happy because of the apron but then realized that the apron he is wearing is the apron of the girl he killed.
He lost his smile but quickly regained it so Stealth can't notice. He reached for the shelf to look for the calamansi but because of his height, he can't see and reach the other continents he needs. He is trying to reach it but then he felt someone's presence behind him so he looked behind him and saw Stealth.
"Ano kaylangan mo? Ako na kukuha" Stealth said while trapping Arsenal between his arms that is now resting in the kitchen counter. Arsenal is trying to say something but it looks like he's mouth is suddenly stitched because of the thing that is happening right now.
When he is about to say something, he is cut off "Do you know that my girlfriend died just weeks ago? The thing is I'm supposed to be sad but... When I'm with you I feel happy..." Stealth said while keeping his staring contest with Arsenal.
Arsenal felt so little because of the way Stealth looks at him so intensely. He looked down but looked up quickly because Stealth hold his jaw firmly and made him look at the older in the eyes again.
"But I want to feel a different kind of happiness with you now. So can I? Stealth said while brushing his thumb on Arsenal's plump lips.
Arsenal nodded and just set his worries aside. Because right now for him. Who cares if you're going to the dirty with the hot man of the woman you killed? For him no one.
All he wants to do is enjoy the day with this man. This man that is suffering because of him.
' I got you playing with me without you even noticing haha. Dumb. '
