A Promise to be Fulfilled

The promise

Chapter 2

"I came back to fulfill my promise Mitchelle,but......."

I didn't like the sound of this.His voice is so serious.When he visited me and told me that he came to take his bride away,I was very happy.But I reminded myself that he might have forgotten the promise and just said those things as a greeting.He might have just went back here to apologize and say that he found someone else to be happy with.After all,there are far
more beautiful girls out there than me.Although, it seems as though he remembers the promise.At least, he remembered the promise.Too bad he's gonna say that he can't fulfill it.

"But............Why don't we celebrate me coming back here first?"he said quickly,almost as if he changed his mind about telling me something.I looked at him skeptically but he just ignored my skeptical look.

He went into the kitchen and took some ingredients from my fridge,making me pale,remembering past experience of him almost blowing up my entire kitchen.I guess I'm overexaggerating.A little bit.

I hope he doesn't blow up my kitchen!I wish he won't blow up my kitchen!I wish and hope he doesn't blow up my kitchen!As I thought that,he started staring at me.I glared at him while he continued staring at me."Do I have something on my face?"I looked at him seriously just to avoid him throwing accusations about me thinking of him blowing up my kitchen.Not entirely accusations.Nonetheless,he should really know how to cook by now.He's already 24 after all.

Never mind,not all people know how to cook at the age of 24.My friends pray for my kitchen to survive his cooking ordeal of death!ha!As if I have any friends at all.

"What are you planning to make.Are you making food for me?No need to do that."I said,fearing that he would make me coal instead of food."Do you want any help?"He remained silent doing his work silently.Irritating me.Minutes went by and he was still silent.He finally looked up at me and spoke."No need to rush.I'm making pasta and I'm not making one for you."he said,sticking his tongue out at me.

"How childish,does little Ren want a feeding bottle?Don't worry,I'll go get a baby bottle just for you baby Ren."Ha!Never mess with me!He continued sticking his tongue out making him look even more childish.

I went to the living room and continued watching tv.After awhile,my stomach growled,I stood up to go inside the kitchen and that's when I saw him eating a delicious looking pasta."Since when did you know how to cook?!The last time you cooked,you almost blew up my kitchen!"I couldn't help but say.When I thought back to the words I said,I cringed.

He looked like he was about to cry.Not.He turned pink and he twitched a bit.He never took insults well.There was one time he chased me around the campus with a suuuuuper pissed face.His whole face was like a tomato.It seems like he got his temper in control now.

He stood up looking at me,expecting something from me.Being the dense person that I am,it took me a few minutes to figure out that I owe him an apology."Sorry Ren,I crossed the line this time."he sat back down on the chair and continued eating.The pasta he made looks so delicious that my stomch started calling out for its soulmate,food.

He looked up from his food once again,this time trying to put on a poker-face,but ends up laughing really hard that he choked on his food."Hah!That's what you get for laughing at a hungry person!"When he didn't stop coughing,I went into panic mode.I gave him a glass of water and he grabbed it from my hand,drinking fast."Don't drink it too fast,drink it slowly.Ok,are you better now?"

A few moments of silence,he began choking again.At first,I got annoyed,but I remembered that he was choking and only I could help him.I panicked even more when he heaved in a huge breath but ended up groaning in pain.I bet I paled so bad when he turned pinkish in the ears.

I didn't notice him glance up at me because I was so panicked that it bothered my system of thinking.He laughed liked an idiot,but I still didn't register his laughter.It took awhile for me to put the pieces of the puzzle together and when I connected all the pieces,I almost bashed his head to the floor when an idea popped into my head.

"Aren.............Please....Aren.......Don't leave me behind....No.............Please......"I started feigning my gut-wrenching cries.Tears started to flow.My crying became even more real by the second.Then I started crying for real,when memories flashed in my mind.Pushing the memories back down,a thought crossed my mind,making me cry harder than before.What should I do.What would I do?What would I do if I really lose Aren?No!Please no....

Aren shook my shoulders,pulling me out of my trance.A trance that I shouldn't experience again.I really hated remembering something I don't want to.

I felt Aren hug me,whispering soothing words unto my ear.Remembering what was going on,I laughed at his expression when he panicked.He looked at me,confused."Why the hell are you laughing?"he asked,looking at me like I escaped from the mental asylum.

"If I had the chance to take a pic of your face when you panicked,I would've posted on fb."I said,giving him a mocked serious expression.

"Seriously?",was all he said before he went back to his seat,finishing his food.I stood up,walked over to the cabinets with the plates in it and took one.I went to sit beside him and took some of the pasta he made.He was already done eating when I started to eat my food.

When I tasted the pasta he made,it was like a professional chef cooked the pasta.I looked at him suspiciously,looking at him like he was an imposter."You made this."I asked but it sounded more of like a statement rather than a question.He just nodded at that.

He is so gonna have a long talk with me.
