We completed our discussion by 10:30.

Now, all of us are hungry, so we decided to cook something together.

We all stood in the center of the kitchen, looking at each other. No one knew what to make.

Radhika suggested, "let's make maggi!"
I replied, "Nah, we always eat maggi, let's make something else today. "

Naman suggested, " Let's order something guys. "

We all disagreed.

Hmm... What could we make?
Yes!

"Pasta! ", Mr.Selfish and I said at the same time. Why does he have to choose everything I do?

Everyone agreed to our suggestion. So now, we our together going to make pasta.

I assigned duties to everyone, and Mr.Selfish and I had to cut onions and capsicums.

I looked at him skeptically and asked, "You know how to cut vegetables, right? "

He gave me a look and said, "Obviously! "

As we stood there, side by side, silence wrapped around us with the occasional sound of the cutting. I glanced at his work and saw perfection. It seemed like he was a professional.

I finished my cutting and he was almost done too. He glanced in my direction, as I was continuously looking towards him, particularly his work.

Just as he got distracted, the knife accidentally cut his finger slightly. He yelped in pain and moved his finger away from the vegetables.

Blood started oozing from his cut, and a few drops fell on the floor. My eyes widened and I gasped.

"You are bleeding! ", I exclaimed!
" Yeah, I cut-", I interrupted him and said, "On my floor! "

He gave me a long , 'are you serious' look.

"You can't just bleed on my floor! Now who will clean it? "

He rolled his eyes and said, "I will clean it for you, but will you just let me clean this cut? Or else your house will get more dirty, you know! " I rolled my eyes and he placed his hand under the water and cleaned his wound.

I took the mop and cleaned the blood from the floor. He looked at me and said, "I said, I would do it."

I replied, "I am not that bad, okay! I won't make you mop the floor. "
He just gave me a silent look and asked me for a bandage.

I said, "You need a bandage for that? It's not even deep! "

"Can you just give it without saying anything? " He said in an annoyed tone.

I gave him a bandage and went to cut the vegetables that he had left. "Hey, why are you doing it? I will do it. " He said.

I replied, "No thanks, it's almost done anyways. "
