Touching the Heart of Ace
Chapter 20
??NO!??
I woke gasping to an empty bedroom.
I fell back almost sighing in relief which later turned into laboured breaths. What was the dream about? Was there Robbie in it? Ever since that day he jumped on me from the alley, I was having this realistic dreams, mostly with him in it.
Robbie had to be in this too. He controlled me even when he was not near.
Stop thinking about him the first in the morning, Ace.
Well, 2 am is also morning.
I wished I had someone to talk to. Someone who was mine.
??You will come with me.?? I was trying real hard not to fall for his acts. I did not want to be that side-bitch.
I deserved better. I deserved someone who was mine.
But no one would take care of me like Robbie did. No one would buy me a chocolate cake in the middle of night, just because I woke up dreaming about it. I hadn??t meant to wake him up; I just needed a sip of water, but when I came back to bed, he was wide awake.
??You slipped away from me.??
I rolled my eyes. ??I was thirsty. Well, I was hungry, I dreamt of chocolate cake, so I drank water.??
He got dressed and got me a chocolate cake, seriously. I felt so bad about it after, but it was sweet.
Both the cake and him.
??You will get me fat. There is no way I can burn these calories before sleeping.??
Robbie loved a good challenge.
We ??exercised?? with heavy dose of chocolate icing in between.
I wanted a chocolate cake right at this moment. If I had a boyfriend would he go out in the middle of night to get me one? No, he would not. Because normal people did not go out at night for cake. If he was kind enough he might get me one in the morning.
I could take away the hunger with water, though. I cracked my bones and went to the fridge. Ned??s apartment was tiny, with tinier kitchen but huge ass fridge. Made no sense. But he lived off frozen foods, until I started cooking out of nowhere.
One day I was going through pizza hut brochures and the motivation struck. I had been cooking since then and of course, Ned came, along with Rupert and Julian got a whiff too and now I was cooking every other day for my pets.
Yup, pets.
They adorably blinked at me when I said I was going to call the delivery. I had my little minions, under my thumb. well under my cooking.
