HER ADDICTION

What do you think you are doing?' She abruptly stood to her feet, pushing the man away from her. 'And who are you? What are you doing in my house and kitchen?' The unknown man rose to his feet, wearing a puzzled look. "Your house? Your kitchen?" "Yes," Nino tried to sound confident even though mere looking at him sent cold blood down her spine. "A burglar won't be treating himself to dinner so who the heck are you?" "I should be asking you this," his cold impassive voice came again. "Who are you and what are you doing in my house?" After being cheated on by her boyfriend. Nino learnt her house has been sold to a complete stranger, the news of her parent's house being sold by the man her parents borrowed a loan from and couldn't pay back before their death. The news hit Nino Peterson to the core. She swore to take back her parent's house but when she realized the amount the man bought her house, she knew she couldn't pay him on time or send him packing either. So the two reached a compromise that she will still live in her parent's house until she was able to pay back the amount the man paid on her house. But will she be able to live under the same roof with a man knowing he's a complete stranger and the atmosphere will not be the same anymore? And when she also learns the truth about the man living under the same roof with her, would she be able to deal with it?

I halt halfway to the kitchen when I heard her suddenly laughing. I waved it off and retreated to the kitchen and saw Daniel cleaning the plates he just washed. I was surprised though, he climbed on a stool to reach the plate racket. I walked over to him and took the plates from him.

"You don't have to do this, I took the plates. I will do them."

"I'm not complaining," he beamed. "I want to help out in the kitchen, sitting all day playing games or watching tv bores me."

"I've been wanting to ask. What grade are you?"

"I'm in middle school, grade 2," Daniel answered, handing him a plate. "But after the holiday I will be in grade 3."

"That's cool, and I know you must be the brightest kid in school."

"Kinda..." Daniel shrugged. "What was your childhood like? I know you must be one of those cool kids in schools."
