Wirata locked the door quickly. Stood still. She heard the door of the master bedroom slammed shut. Her heart was beating so fast at this minute. It was the first time to face Pichani"s boyfriend.
He looked evil! Ful of the mafia appearance from head to toes. It made her hair at her neck stood up! Wirata shook her head tried to get his picture out of her mind, but somehow, she couldn"t get rid of it! Body with tattoos!
Wirata shook her head again and again, still saw that tall body with only a towel wrapped his down below part, the chest was covered with tattoos, Yak! Disgusting!
Wirata went to wash her face and told herself to focus on her homework, it seemed work! And it was done at about 8 p.m.
knock-knock!
"Wine? Are you in there?" The sound of Pichani calling at the front of the door.
"Yes"
"I"m hungry. Did you buy anything from the market?"
"Nope. I saved some fried-rice for you in the fridge."
"Already had it! That"s for breakfast, now t"s 8 p.m. my dear. Can you cook something else for me? I am half dead right now. Oh G.o.d, you know my boyfriend has a high s.e.xual drive, he never wants to stop, and he"s addicted to me so much. Oh, I"m so happy but tired now."
Pichani said loudly without shame in her voice. Wirata pretended not to pick every word she"s barking about but, still remember that tall guy with tattoos on the chest, the right arm, and the left arm! Yak!
She opened the door, there she was, the s.e.x G.o.ddess, Pichani was wearing a silk robe her cheeks were pink with her messy long wavy red hair. Without saying a word Wirata walked to the kitchen, opened the fridge to see if she could make something edible for her roommate. She put on an ap.r.o.n with active movement.
Pichani followed and sat on a chair at the dining table. Thinking about Stefan"s order, he wanted her to get rid of the girl. She looked at Wirata, the way of the slim body moving fast and seemed to know what"s she doing. Who"s going to be stupid enough to get rid of someone who could cook, could do housework and also could pay the rent!
Pichani was not daft to tell Stefan about it. He would go mad if he knew she was taking money from this girl when he had already paid for the whole year rent!
"Omelette?" Wirata asked, seeing some eggs in the fridge. She opened the freezer reached for frozen pizza, threw it into the microwave pushed the b.u.t.ton.
Pichani watched with joy, must admit that Wirata was a smart and skillful person. But Pichani thought that she had better skills than Wirata, the skills of feeding a hungry man in bed! and that"s very important! Wirata"s a loser in this case. She"s too innocent like the most ordinary Thai girls.
"Omelette"s great, need three, I"m exhausted, need to gain my energy back. Oh, tonight I"m going out, my close friend"s birthday party." Pichani announced.
"Oh, I see. Okay." Wirata responded with no interest and she knew Pichani did not care either if Wirata had anything to say or not. When firstly moved in Wirata used to warn her about her studying responsibility, she had failed and missed cla.s.ses, but Pichani didn"t like it and said mean words to Wirata. Since then Wirata learned to keep her mouth shut. If one didn"t love herself, what could she do and why would she have to care!
Wirata made omelette, put it in a plate, took the pizza out of the microwave, put everything on the table in front of Pichani.
"Thanks. By the way, my boyfriend, he likes privacy so much, so when he comes next time, will you make sure to stay out somewhere?"
Wirata paused for a minute then shrugged.
"Yes, fine, no problems, just let me know in advance so that I can make sure to stay away. Oh, have you seen the letter from your Uni, the third one?"
"About what?" Pichani asked, biting the pizza.
"I think it"s about your absence from cla.s.ses."
"Who cares! My boyfriend"s super-rich. In fact, I don"t have to study at all, as long as I serve him well in bed, that"ll be enough. He gives me lots of money each time and this one, he"s G.o.d of prosperity, I"m telling you. I"ll make sure to stick with him forever." Pichani said with confidence.
Wirata felt pity for her. She"d got a short vision about life and future. She didn"t think if one day he had enough and got bored and left, what would she do? One day her beautiful face and s.e.xy body would change and go aging, one day it would be no longer attractive and nice to look at anymore.
That guy looked so mean and he just wanted her for s.e.x, Wirata was sure about that and it"s sure not last forever like Pichani was wis.h.i.+ng for, but Wirata didn"t bother to say out, because Pichani would not listen to anyway. So, let her be.
Pichani finished eating and left the messy plates on the table, she had that bad habit to have people serve her all the time. Wirata got used to it and didn"t want to complain because, at the end of the day, the rent is cheaper than anywhere else.
Sophia Bradley, Wirata"s close friend didn"t understand why Wirata had to live with this mean woman. Sophia was from a well-off family who had everything she wished for, so she was another one who didn"t quite understand about the poor, how patient a not-so-well-off girl who lived far away from home had to be. Even Wirata"s mother owned a Thai restaurant in Las Vegas, but it"s only a small one and just earned enough to live comfortably, but not rich and Wirata would do everything to help to save, made sure she wasn"t going to spend her mother"s hard earn money without good reasons.
However, for Sophia, even she was from a rich family but she was down to earth, very nice to Wirata, she liked to protect her from mean and rude people, she hated the way Pichani treated her. Sophia used to offer Wirata to live at her big house. But Wirata refused because she didn"t want to disturb Sophia"s family. Living here with Pichani made her learn how to cope with bad situations, Wirata liked to think positively.
Her mother once said G.o.d sent people into our lives with purposes. He wanted to teach us something. No one came into our lives by chance. Mother strongly believed in that. And for Wirata, this time, she would like to believe that G.o.d had sent Pichani into her life to explain what the word "patient" really meant!
