Barry went straight to the kitchen instead of going to Yaya's room.

Barry then carefully pulls out a chair using his right foot while carrying Yaya and placed her there to be sitted. He checks the food in the fridge and put it inside the microwave.

Yaya wanting to stand up to set up the table but Barry immediately got hold of her shoulders.

"Where do you think you are going?" He asked.

"Am setting up the table," she answered.

"And how are you going to do that?"

Then Yaya realized that she was carried by Barry to the kitchen and her assisted canes were left in the guest area.

Yaya blushed, because she felt stupid.
"Okay, but I'll do the washing of dishes"

Barry just shakes his head as he sets the table.

When Barry was about to dig into their food, Yaya stopped his hands.

Barry looked at her with questioning look..

"Can we give thanks for the food?"

Yaya, bows her head and gave a silent prayer. He followed the same, what followed next surprised him, she placed some food on his plate. Before putting some on hers.

Yaya's concentration was broken when Barry amused said, "you also might want to feed me"

Yaya was surprised, "Am sorry, am used to eating with Tony, its always been just the two of us and preparing food for him is a habit, i'll just change your plate"

"No its okay, i like it. This is the first time somebody put food in my plate. Not since i was five."

Yaya again blushed and reprimanded herself. She was not able to control her Obsessive Compulsive attitutude.

Silence

Barry saw her uneasiness and tried to shift the conversation to other subject.

"This is Som Tum right?" Barry

"Yes" she answered

"I like this, this is different from Mae Dalia's taste. The spiciness is just right for me" wanting to start a conversation.

Yaya just smiled. Not wanting to add more because she might say something stupid.

Am I losing my touch. This is not a date just dinner. Barry said to himself. Why  does he gets toungue tied. He knows he is a good conversationalist at least.

The two eat in silence...

Yaya was surprised with Barry's appetite. She just watches him eat. Knowing that he ate the all the food she prepared and cooked with Khun Dalia makes her feel happy.

Barry, feels comfortable with Yaya even in silence. finding an excuse just to be with Yaya, even if he is quite full he ate all what was on the table. Besides the food was great. He should give Khun Dalia something. He can come home everyday just to eat something like this with this lady.

"Wow! That's what I call dinner!" Barry exclaimed.

Yaya just giggled. Did she really just sounded like a teenager? To do away with the awkwardness, she started collecting the plates.
Barry instinctively assists her and put the plates on the sink. When table was cleared, Barry tried to carry Yaya.

Yaya said, "what are you doing?"

"Carrying you to your room?"

"Not yet I have to wash the dishes"

"No, its okay" answered Barry. "Mae Dalia will handle that tomorrow morning"

"What?!" Yaya exclaimed, "i am going to do it now, and we can't just leave dirty dishes on the sink."

"Can you do it?" Barry dares.

"I can, just get my cane and i'll show you"

Barry finds carrying Yaya more appealing than washing dishes. And he just did what he never thought he will be doing. That is to wash the dishes.

This becomes battle of the will as they stared each other. Yaya was surprised when he suddenly scooped her and placed her on top of a stool near the sink.

Barry wears an apron and a gloves, and Yaya suddenly laughed.  He was mesmerized with her laugh, she likes the sound of it. He can wear an apron everyday just to hear her laugh.

"It suits you." She said.

Barry just shrugged, he does not want to confess that this is his first time. He only washes cars at least.

"You've got a very nice kitchen."

"You like it?" He asked

"Absolutely! Its so complete. Khun Dalia said its rarely used. Its a pity."

"You can hang in here anytime you want"

Their conversation started and discussed about random things.

Yaya, unknowingly is checking out Barry. He got the the best male butt he have ever seen. Hands down. She chuckles.

Barry turns to her direction when he heard her chuckle. "Are you laughing again at me? What did i do this time?"

Yaya blushed.

Barry comes near Yaya as he takes off his gloves and apron and finds it tk sexy. She now just stares at him.

Barry now stands infront of her, as Yaya looks up to him. "What am I going to do with you? Are you being naughty?"

Yaya was smiling, "No i am not"

Barry then scoops Yaya as if she's just a pillow. And Yaya laughed again. Barry thought he can get use to this.

Barry was about to ascend the stairs, when Yaya said, "where are you taking me?"

"To your room" he answered.

"My room is there" and pointed the way going to her room downstairs.

Barry looks at him quizically.

"No your room is upstairs" as he steps up.

"No Barry, i sleep downstairs."

"Who told you to sleep there?"

"I did" she answered " and my things are already there"

Barry wants to insist and stay longer with Yaya, but he saw that she needs to rest.

Barry contained himself, he is not really used to not being followed. He instructed for Yaya's room to be fixed only to find out that she stays downstairs. To the smallest guest room. He bought this place for her to recover he thought.

His jaw clenched, "let us discuss this tomorrow, you need to prepare early for your check up. Its already late."

Yaya holds his jaw with her right hand, Barry was immediately calmed and looked at her in the eyes.

"Thank you" she said. "Don't be mad, its my decision. Yes, let us discuss this tomorrow".  And smiled.

He just melted.
