INTO THE DEPTHS OF LOVE : CHAPTER 11 – 20

Kristin scratched her hair a little trying to cook up a believing lie to tell her parents.

“Kristin? Can you still hear us?”

“Yes I can Mom. I work in a restaurant as one of their waitresses, and I live in a tiny house close to my workplace” Kristin lied.

Her eyes were moving around Richard’s mansion as she fed her parents the lie she had cooked.

“Are you comfortable living there?” Her Dad asked worriedly.

“Yes I am. It’s comfortable and I love it here” She grins.

“I miss you so much, Kristy”

“Same here Mom. How’s Kathryn?”

“She is fine, she is staying with Romina for the meantime”

“Send my regards to her. I have to go now… I love you both so much” She ended the call with a smile, but it was replaced with a huge scream when she saw Richard standing behind her.

“Did you see a ghost?” He asked.

“You should stop approaching me unannounced. I need to be alert to see your cold face” Kristin blew out some air from her mouth.

“I didn’t know you knew how to lie. You work in a restaurant as a waitress, and live in a tiny house?” Richard asked.

“They’d get a heart attack if they find out I’m in this marriage with you because of money. Moreover, I can’t tell them I live in this huge house, they’d run down to Las Vegas if they find out”

“Suit yourself then” Richard said walking towards the stair, but Kristin rushed to him.

“Mr. Grouchy”

“Mm”

“You already know I’m a farmer’s daughter, right? So while seeing the beautiful sites of Vegas, I bought some root vegetables”

“Root vegetables? What’s that?” He asked.

“It’s vegetables that grows underground, and it’s often uprooted with bare hands”

“Why are you telling me all this?”

“I made a delicious soup out of it” She smiled.

“So?”

“I don’t know if you might want to have a taste of it. It’s mostly eaten by farmers. It’s a local meal, but it’s a very healthy one, but if you won’t eat it, I’m just going to…”

“Where is it?” He asked, cutting her short, and a smile erupted from Kristin’s pretty face.

“You want to have a taste of it?” Kristin chortled, even if she was smiling, she was kinda surprised.

“You made an effort preparing the meal, it’d be a waste to trash it out. Tasting the meal of a farmer’s daughter isn’t a bad idea” Richard said, his face an embodiment of plainness.

“Whoa! Mr. Grouchy wants to taste my cooking! I assure you Mr. Grouchy, you won’t regret it, cuz I’m the best cook in the whole of Glenwood” She spread her hands apart, almost hitting Richard in the eye.

“Would you serve it, or do you want me to change my mind?”

“Sorry, I will be right back” Kristin hurried towards the kitchen in excitement, cuz the almighty Richard Hernandez wants to taste her cooking.

She almost tripped on her way, but she held herself from falling. Kristin looked at Richard and grinned before rushing to the kitchen.

Richard watched her as she ran towards the kitchen with those short legs of hers, and before he knew it, he smiled at her childish behavior.

Richard sat down in the dining room as he watched Kristin serve her specialty to him.

She was serving the meal with a smiling face, because she was still yet to believe that Richard agreed to taste her cooking.

The last time she tried cooking for him, he shouted and scolded her for it, but today was different, Mr. Grouchy wanted to taste her cooking, Kristin thought to herself grinning from ear to ear.

“Dig in” She flashed a smile at Richard, sitting close to him.

Richard stared at her beautiful brown eyes, before picking up the spoon to eat. His face was back to being cold.
