Chapter 56: Chapter 56

Mari's POV

I woke up around 6am and I stretched. I stepped down from the bed and walked into the bathroom to brush my teeth. After brushing, I headed for the living room.

I was wearing one of the white T-shirts I saw in the closet. They seemed like a company shirt that were given out for free to its workers. The logo of the company was written at the top right corner in blue.

I was wearing the shirt on my undershorts.

As I entered the kitchen, I took a glass cup, rinsed it and fetched water from the filter. I drank it then went back upstairs.

And thirty minutes later, I began to feel hungry

“what's with me and hunger now?” I asked the ceiling

I gently stepped down from the bed again and made towards the stairs to go downstairs. Eliza had said she would keep the food in the fridge so I would check and if possible, warm and eat.

As I entered the living room, I saw Wilbur doing something by the dinning table. I walked up to him

“good morning” I greeted and he turned

“morning sunshine” he said and I smiled.

He was dropping plates of sandwiches on the table

“did you make these?” I asked

“yeah. Just now” he answered

“wow”

I was really hungry and I couldn't wait to eat.

“Eliza is still sleeping?” he asked and I nodded

“sit down and eat” he said and I sat down. I began to eat while he poured out warm milk for me. He looked at my face and chuckled

“what?” I asked and he just sat down and took his own sandwich

I decided not to say anything else

“first time I'm seeing you in the morning. And you're beautiful” he said and I blushed

“thanks Will” I said and licked my fingers

He moved closer to me and bent down to kiss me but Eliza giggled and we looked up

“HI guys. You're free to kiss don't worry” she said and he just chuckled

“come and sit down Eliza” Will said and she sat opposite him.

“Eliza check the fridge, there's a beef sandwich there. It's for you. Will made it for you but you weren't awake” I said

“really?” she asked and stood up. She left and Will looked at me

“I didn't make any...”

“just shut up and kiss me before she comes back” I cut in
