Chapter 74

For the next few days Amelie and Aiden had basically no contact with eachother,because of their completely different routines.Soon Amelie too started her work so she would also leave the house occasionally and by the time she returned,Aiden would already retreat in his room.

When changing the room they would do it by the time the other wasn't home and on weekends when one spent the time home the other would leave.

It wasn't even cohabitation anymore since the inhibitors would treat eachother like air.

Amelie came to the laundry room with a basket of her dirty clothes.Just as she entered,she was greeted by the pile of clothes on the corner of the room.Aiden had a habit of scattering clothes in his room.Amelie had seen this habit of his since the first time she had switched rooms,and had kindly helped him get these clothes in a basket and left them at the room he would be sleeping in.Aiden had seemed to reflect a bit and just piled all the clothes he needed to wash in this particular basket,but when the time came to switch rooms again he hadn't washed but left them in the bathroom.Again Amelie had kindly put this basket in the laundry room to remind him that these things needed washing,but this man had just kept piling and piling his clothes for weeks there.

Does he even have any clean clothes left to wear?

Amelie just put her clothes in one of the washing machines.No matter how annoying that mess in the corner was,she wasn't going to play the role of his maid.He would be forced to wash those clothes later anyway when his wardrobe emptied.

Amelie then went to the kitchen to fix something for herself.Before eating she cleaned the mess she had made and opened the cabinet to throw some of the things in the bin,but this time she was greeted by a foul smell of rotting food making her gag.

AIDEEEN!!!!

Amelie screamed in her head.

They each had seperate bins to throw their individual waste and then they would empty them themself so contact with eachother could be as minimal as possible.No matter how lazy Amelie was she tried her best to empty her bins to avoid this result,but her young prince of a roomate always forgot.Sometimes she would throw it out to save her nose,but not this time he had to do it himself.He could vomit his intestines for all she cared.

She didn't ask him to swipe the carpets,mop the floors,dust the furniture or water the plants.She just asked him to not make a mess.

A footprint on the just cleaned corridor made her cup overflow.That manchild needed to be taught a lesson.

It was a Sunday and this time Aiden had decided to spend it lazily in his room,but his relaxing time was interrupted by a banging door.

"I'm sorry but is there something wrong with you?"

An angry Amelie had barged in his room.Her hair was in a messybun,her face bare and she was wearing an oversized hoodie and a pair of sweatpants,completely different from the prim and proper woman.

Aiden was laying shritless on bed with a tablet on his hand,revealing his chiseled body.The tattoo, bulging muscles and those toned abs were completely bare and that image had already burned in Amelie's retina.

Aiden instinctively covered his chest.

"Don't you know how to knock?"

Amelie's distraction was only for a fraction of a second because seeing his messy and lazy apperance,together with that annoyed voice only ignited her anger more.The mess in his room didn't make it any better.

"Get up."

"What?"Aiden was completely confused.

Amelie walked angrily towards his bed and pointed around the room.

"You're going to clean this mess here,that mess you left in the laundry room,the mess you left in the kitchen and you're going to mop the floor!Now!"

Aiden furrowed his eyebrows in annoyance.

"What are you my mother?"

A volcano erupted inside Amelie.This man was definitely born to anger her.But on the contrary her face lit up in a smile giving Aiden a chill in his spine.

A sickeningly sweet and gentle tone came out of her mouth.

"Aiden,get up."then her smile dropped and a scary look of a grim reaper was on her face."Now."

Though his instincts had picked up the danger his pride had other thoughts.

Aiden just ignored her and turned the other way continuing to scroll on his tablet.

Amelie just watched him silently from the side of the bed,her eye twitching.

If I could just kill him right there and now by smashing that lamp on his head,but I won't be able to mask it as an accident.

Poor Aiden didn't know that his wife was already planning his murder.

Finally,Amelie pulled the last,thin threads of her sanity and tried to reason him like human.

She took a deep breath and spoke as calmly as she could.

"Your unclean clothes have piled a lot in the laundry room and they have started to smell,if you leave them more like that they will start to mold."

No answer.

"Your bins in the kitchen need to be emptied.The rotten smell makes it impossible to open the cabinet.It won't take too long before the whole kitchen smells rotten."

Silence.

"I had just mopped the floor when you stepped on it.Now there's visible footprints all around the corridor.Do whatever you want in your room,but keep the common spaces clean.Clean after yourself."

Silence.

"Oh my God!What poor soul has to stand an insufferable human being like yourself in this life!" Amelie snapped and yelled at him.

"If you don't like it then leave."

"Oh if I had a choice I'd gladly do so!"

"You have a choice!You're the one who keeps refusing it!Maybe you just love oogling at my face and body everyday!"
