Episode 9

She made lunch of fried rice and chicken for him, she took the food as requested, she serve him the food and turn to leave but he asked her to eat with him, she refused politely telling him it wasn’t in her place to eat with her master. Michael too wouldn’t take no for an answer he insisted and said he wasn’t going to eat until she joined him. She didn’t want him to starve himself again since he didn’t even eat breakfast.

BENITA: Ok let me get spoon for myself then.

MICHAEL: Alright, I’m going to wait till you return with the spoon.

She nodded and left the room, “what kind of thing is this na, and God knows I miss words when I’m around him, now his asking me to eat with him” she thought worry written all over her face. She took the spoon and joined him upstairs just as he said he didn’t touch the food he was busy with his laptop, she opened the food and prayed before they started eating.

MICHAEL: So Benny tell me about yourself? Well mum has told me lot about you but it would be nice if I hear it from you. Don’t you think?

BENITA: (feeling shy) nothing about me to tell sir?

MICHAEL: There is a lot about you to tell, but don’t worry after our meal you will tell me everything.

BENITA: (she smiled dryly) ok sir.

They ate in silent even though benita wasn’t comfortable through out the meal, she was thankful when he said he was full, she said she was full too and packed the dishes to the kitchen. Some minutes later she came back to joined him in his bed room. She knocked softly he asked her to come inside.
