The Woman From Hell

Just like that, I went to my room and slept for a while. I endured till late at night.

As night fell, there was the rustling sound of the door unlocking from outside. Matthew returned with a lot of things in his hands. It looked like he had gone and made a huge purchase.

While he unloaded everything and put them into the refrigerator, he said to me, "I bought a lot of food that you like to eat and some things that you should be eating now. You'll definitely like them."

I sat on the sofa and watched him quietly as he put everything into the refrigerator. He then took out the ingredients that he would be preparing tonight without saying a word.

Matthew probably knew that I was still angry about what happened during the day, but he ignored me and started cooking on his own. After a while, the aroma of the dishes wafted from the table. "It's time to eat."

I got up slowly and went forth at a slow pace. He was quite considerate and pulled out a chair for me. The meat and vegetables matched well and were all nutritious. At first glance, they were to supplement my body.

If he was the same Matthew as before, I think I would be very happy, but now all I could express now was sorrow.
