We had a beautiful day. Caleb had ordered lunch to my place and did not allow me to leave the bed.
"Caleb... I want to get out of this bed and have a shower..." I wined.
"Can I join you?" he asked me.
"No."
"Hey... Why no?"
"Because we have been in bed the whole day, having sex and eating food. And the bed had food dropped on it and I have to clean all of that... So do me a favour, ask your maid or driver to get you a pair of clothes. Till then I will clean the house."
"Are you a clean freak?"
"No... I just like my things to be clean. I have no maids so I have to keep my house clean."
"So, you clean the house, manage the business and... Do you cook?"
"Yes, I do cook," I tell him pushing him into the bathroom.
While he showered, I cleaned the room and the kitchen and washed the bedsheet. Placed a new bedsheet on the bed and waited for his driver to come. It was almost an hour that he was in the shower.
"When will you be done? It has been an hour that you have been in the shower."
"I did call you, I need a towel. Where were you?"
"Oh! I am so sorry. Let me get it for you," I tell him rushing to get a towel for him.
"Hey, chill. I take that long in the shower anyway."
"What do you do? How long does it take to scrub a dub?"
He comes out with the towel wrapped around his waist.
"Your clothes are not here yet. So feel free to move around the house in a towel. The next time we have rendezvous it is going to be at your place. You have many maids at your place," he stiffens as I tell him that we would meet at his place.
"Yeah... About that, I really do not think it is a good idea to go to my place. I mean... we would be doing the dirty and all the maids will hear us. You are a screamer," he tells me.
"But I want to go to your place. Or we could go to our hometown," he suggests.
"But Caleb..." I was about to say something when the doorbell rang. I buzzed the guy in as he had Caleb's clothes. It was the driver who had bought the clothes. I took the parcel from him and offered him water. It was hot outside and I know that guy must have been in a rush to get the parcel here. He was thankful. I closed the door as he left. I handed the parcel to Caleb when the doorbell rang again.
"It is for you..." I yell from the hall. "Someone names Kathlin."
"Ya... Buzz her in," he yells back.
"Okay". I buzz her in. It does not take too long for her to come to the door as I live on the 1st floor. I did not think of spending too much money on living space when I lived alone.
I walk to the bathroom along with my clothes. I hear Kathlin come in and talk to Caleb. It takes me around 20 minutes to shower. I dress up and walk into the living room with the towel wrapped around my head.
The girl on the sofa who I assumed was Kathlin had a disapproving look on her face as she saw me. I ignored her stare and walked towards Caleb. I asked him if he had offered her any beverage, but he just shrugged his shoulder. So I walked to the kitchen and filled a glass of juice and a glass of water and placed it on the centre table. Caleb went to take the glass of juice when I slapped his hand away.
"That is for the young lady here. You can have it from the fridge," I scolded him. Kathlin had a surprised expression on her face which turned into a look of disgust like I had done something very bad. Caleb was busy reading the papers Kathlin had bought. I sat beside Caleb and told him, "I thought it was a day without work."
"Yes, it was. This is kind of important. And needs to be done," he informs me as he signs the documents.
"What is it?" I ask him.
"These papers are the papers you were hunting for the last three years... These are the house papers," he tells me placing the papers in my hand. "Listen, I have to go now. But I will be back here in a few days. I have a few meetings abroad so don't miss me much," he kisses my head and leaves.
I was shocked to see the house papers in my hand. How the strawberry chocolate did he get the house papers. I read the papers and found that he had purchased the house and that CEK was his new company that had no link to his father's business. I was shocked that my house belonged to me now. But I felt guilty that it was given to me just like that. Caleb had paid the market price of that house to my parents and it would be just that I paid the market price if I had to accept it.
I spoke to a few realtors and found out the cost of the house at this moment and asked Merlin to find Caleb Evens address. CEK was hard to find, Caleb Evans... not so much. She texted me the address in a few minutes. I decided to return the papers to him. It will be right only if I purchase the house from him.
