The Marrying Bet

Husband's Cuisine

Vara woke up from her sleep, she was so tired from crying as much as last night. He stared at the empty side of the bed. Normally, Viceroy was still curled up in bed, was Viceroy really angry over last night?

Vara realized that last night he was clearly making Viceroy angry. He extinguished the desire that was burning the man just like that. A man who is burning passion must need a release, and Vara does not allow the man to let go of his pent-up desire. Vara was really scared, because last night Viceroy turned into a man he didn't know. Vara is really not ready to accept the figure of Viceroy like that.

Vara immediately headed to the kitchen to prepare their breakfast.

Vara was surprised to find Viceroy who was busy struggling in the kitchen. The man was stirring something in the pot.

"Good morning, Vara," said Viceroy with a warm smile.

Vara just nodded.

"Is your sleep good?" viceroy asked while turning off the stove.

"Viceroy, sorry," said Vara.

"Go take a shower" Viceroy said.

"The cooking?" ask Vara.

"Let me do the cooking" replied Viceroy.

Vara nodded, he headed to the laundry room to prepare the clothes he was going to iron. Vara was really surprised because all her clothes in the laundry room were already in a neat ironed state. There's no way he's ironing while sleeping!

Did Viceroy do it?

"Viceroy, did you iron my clothes?" ask Vara.

"No, my hands did it" replied Viceroy smiling.

"Viceroy, why?" ask Vara astonishment.

"I know you're tired, I'm just helping what I can do" the Viceroy replied. "Go take a shower, we have breakfast together" Viceroy continued, chopping vegetables and putting them in a pot of boiling water.

Vara immediately rushed to take a bath in the bathroom that was on the lower floor. After bathing and getting dressed, he immediately headed to the kitchen.

Vara looked at Viceroy who was busy arranging the dining table like Vara used to do if they were going to eat together. Viceroy cooks fish soup, boiled vegetables, omelets, and boiled potatoes for their breakfast menu. 

"Viceroy, did you do any cooking lessons?" ask Vara in wonder.

"No, it used to be my responsibility to do all the work at home" the Viceroy replied. "My mother became the backbone of the family after the sudden death of my father due to a heart attack, as well as my brother," continued Viceroy.

Vara looked at Viceroy who was hiding sadness from the look in his eyes.

Vara immediately ate Viceroy's cooking, Vara was stunned, because Viceroy's cooking was delicious.

"Gosh, your cooking tastes better than mine," Vara was fascinated.

"Spend, don't you always say, facing reality is hard" Viceroy said.

Vara looked at Viceroy who looked so fresh and fragrant. Apparently as soon as he finished cooking, the man immediately took a bath and dressed neatly. Viceroy wears a black shirt that fits so well on his body. 

"Viceroy, I'm sorry," said Vara.

"What are you apologizing for?" ask Viceroy. "It's me who should be apologizing to you, sorry for making you feel uncomfortable" Viceroy said.

...*****...

Vara immediately cleaned the dining table and washed the dishes before they left the house. 

"Vara, here, use it" Viceroy said, offering a debit card he took from his wallet.

"What is a debit card for?" ask Vara.

"Use it for shopping" replied Viceroy. 

"Viceroy, I'm really grateful for your generosity, but I have a salary I can use" Vara said.

"Vara, don't make me look like a husband who can only squeeze the sweat of a wife's work" Viceroy said. "It's my duty to take full responsibility for your life" Viceroy continued.

"His chin is our wedding date, if you really feel less, just say, I'll add the salad soon."

"W-do I need to record the books?" ask Vara.

"As long as you use it on the right path, you don't have to" replied Viceroy.

"So, you're saying I've been walking the wrong way all this time?" ask Vara while laughing.

"I mean, don't use it to pay for erotic massage or call men!" viceroy Sahut.

Vara laughed again, Viceroy smiled looking at the cheerful Vara. He immediately embraced Vara affectionately, because to him, Vara was precious. He was really sorry last night he just let the ego control him. Naturally Vara was so frightened and cried like that, because Viceroy must have looked like a monster in Vara's eyes. After all there was still doubt in Vara's heart, the woman doubted that Viceroy loved her so much. The only way to convince Viceroy to love him so much is to give Vara real proof.
