"This is my advocate, he desires to collect your signature and we are able to be married officially," Amelia introduced the guy in a black suit. " Just a signature and we are Married, " Steve asked widening his eyes, he felt there was extra to marriage than a signature, he wished he could remember what was happening to him earlier than he woke up and Craven's, at this Moment all he has, is this filthy family with folks that like making a lot of noise and hurting others. " Can you read," The advocate requested in a low husky voice? " Give me the papers," He handed Steve a file and he started perusing them, checking the headings and keywords. " It says we will be Married for one and a half months," Steve raised his chin and said. " That's right, do you agree to be Married to Amelia in accordance to what's written on those papers," The lawyer asked flippantly pointing to the papers. " I got no hassle with that," Steve nodded. " Have you read well and understood," The lawyer requested and Steve nodded again he was given a pen and was shown where to sign. The boys were lost, they did not comprehend what was going on but Jenny was following well, they needed the entire story however they cannot say anything now, Amelia was already Convinced that they have overwhelmed up Steve, the kind of appearance they were receiving from her ought to confide it all. " Thank you, sir, I will take you to the door I recognize your services, " Amelia led him to the door and outside to his car, he promised to pay him his fees in five days, but she was handed her copy and the advocate had his copy. " Guys that woman is no fool, she is aware that we did something, what's the defence like, nonetheless tight," Jamal whispered. " Steve are we good my Man," Todd asked. " No worries am cool,". " The ground is clear let's hope she does not start with her funny ideas or get dramatic," Jenny sneered. " Why are you whispering, anything I need to know," Amelia blurted out and banged the door noisily. Then smiled her sunshine smile. " What precisely are you four hiding," Amelia growled and roared. Steve stood and strolled in the direction of the bathroom," Hey you no one talks out on me when am speaking husband or not,". " Are you talking to me," Steve pointed at himself, he thought this woman was his pal but the kind of tone he had put on him changed into indifferent, He Was Shocked that he just Married some crazy woman. Nut turned and sat down and started moving his legs up and down. " Of course am talking to you and these others here, but everyone has turned to a stone, no words," Amelia chuckled devilishly. " Steve get me some water from the kitchen and you better start doing your orientation in this house, we are Married yes but we got to work alright," Amelia yelled glaring at each person at a time. Steve went into the kitchen, he had seen it that morning and came holding a glass of water. " who are you bringing water to holding the glass with your filthy unwashed hands, are there no trays in the kitchen?" Amelia Chimed in brutally and Steve rushed back to the kitchen and placed the water into the tray and brought it back to her with his hands shaking. " Have you read the papers that you signed well, they say that you will be my husband but still your work is to take care of this house, clean it and cook, perform all the chores here, understood?" Amelia Lied to him, she had to set boundaries for him not to be comfortable as a husband, he was here because she needed his money nothing else. " Yes my dear," Steve mumbled. " who is your dear, strictly address me as Amelia, no dear or any other funny name you loser, where did you get the audacity to call me such petty names," Amelia shouted, Steve took the glass and returned it to the kitchen, he was not alright with all this noise, if he has to stay away then soo be it, the kitchen will be his living place. " You see that funny guy there, I am doing this for money nobody should confuse that, he is worth ten grand daily, harm him if you can but make sure he is not in pain and his face is unaffected, I noticed swollen lip, that's a warning, guys," Amelia hissed at them. They all nodded in agreement and dispatched to their rooms, Amelia was not in a good mood and the best thing was to leave her alone or else the lectures will continue till evening, she is always making noise, and she has not accepted her job as a secretary in a public company in Nakuru town. Her Boss nags her a lot and pays her peanuts. Every day she is busy trying to make ends meet since Eunice is always complaining that her money is not enough to keep the whole family intact And since they are grown-ups they should work and bring money to the family. " Steve darling it's time to go to the bank, we need Money for supper, and I must go back to work," Amelia called humbly and Steve came out of the kitchen and led the way out to the car, With his oversized Shirt and a tight trouser, his oversized, shoes, dark features, a bit tall, big eyes and big lips in a tiny face he would pass for a street boy who lived his life by snatching and mugging people. " Will we be going to the bank every day," Steve asked after he got inside the car and buckled up. " You need to eat every day right, so yes and you come back with provisions, go straight to the kitchen and make some food for the whole family," Amelia held his hand and squeezed it to stop his tensed state, he was trembling and that won't be fine Infront of the cameras and all at the bank. " You are a good man, that is why I have decided to marry you," Amelia smiled at him. " Must we stay in that house, can't we be just husband d wife," Steve raised his round eyes full of sadness to her. " Yes we have to stay at the house as I contact a few friends, I got pictures of you on my phone, I will show them, Maybe we will find your origin and then get out of this crowded house and go live in your house," Amelia explained giving him that sunshine smile again, this melted his eyes and he was happy that at least, his wife is also helping him get his memory back. " That would be fine, I hope it happens soon," Steve parted his lips and gave out this charming smile, his facial expression not tensed anymore, he was relaxed with hopes. They got to the bank, they withdrew the ten thousand, they passed by the market and bought a few provisions, Steve needed an extra bread for himself and he was instructed he should eat his within two days if he finishes then there will be none until after two days. He nodded. Amelia dropped him at the gate, and opened and locked it, it was to be under lock and key, he did not have permission to get a lost cause which means no cash or being let out alone, that's a new development that needed to be discussed with all the family members. " Ooh Steve you are back, did you bring anything to eat," Jenny was seated at her favourite spot, checking on her laptop. " No, I got to cook so that we can cook," Steve said going straight to the kitchen, She wanted to see what was bought and show him where each piece of stuff is placed among the cabinets. " You have to be careful not to cross paths with your wife, as you witnessed she is a ruthless b***h, Just follow what you are told," She took the dry grocer and put them in a different cabinet, After they finished she just left. Steve was not dire if he was going to cook but when he started chopping those vegetables he found himself automatically coming up with a great menu and he was prepared " Hey, Steve here is a book you can follow since you can examine fluently," Jenny handed him a recipe book, he flipped on the pages but kept it aside and cooked what he had in mind, he boiled some noodles, Cooked a minced meat stew and stirred vegetables like those of Jamal. " What are you cooking, hope you ain't breaking anything in my kitchen," Eunice just got back and sniffed that aroma from the parking lot, so he came straight to the kitchen and was shocked to find the Scarecrow was cooking. " No Ma'am, am just preparing supper," Steve said almost bowing down. " I need a cup of coffee by the time am downstairs," Eunice blurted out, she wanted to rush to change to more comfortable home wear and freshen up, come taste the food, was the aroma same as the flavour, She would be happy if he could cook well, so that from that day no more takeaways in the house because the women in this house detest cooking. Steve took a plate and served himself a big portion of food and started eating as he sat on his chair that he had shifted from the living room to the kitchen, This will be the best place for him away from all the commotions from the Eunice's. Eunice enters the Kitchen and she screamed:" Who said you can eat before anyone else? who permitted you to use my plate?" She took a plastic bowl from the utensils tier and poured his food in it, " Clean that plate and never touch it again,". " This is your plate and next time wait I come and plate the food for everybody, that is my role in this house," Eunice handed him his plate, then moved his chair to the corner and took a small melamine bowl and scooped a little food, She placed the plate near her nostrils and sniffed it like a puppy, hesitated to place it on her mouth, then it reached there in the end and she chewed with her eyes close, after swallowing, she jumped up and down " Yummy" and patted Steve at the back he almost lunged speculating she was gonna slap him. " At least you are not useless, you can cook well, Where is my coffee, " Steve handed her a thermos and asked which cup was hers, she pointed at one, he picked it and gave it to her and she got out of the kitchen. Steve continued enjoying his meal, he finished and wanted to add more when he remembered he had been warned now no longer even to touch it after cooking, So he washed the two players and sneaked to the room he slept the day before and laid on the bed
