"So, here's what you are going to do for me," I said to him.
"Okay, go on, I'm listening." He replied.
"So, I want you to learn how to control your temper. You have to start by..." Just as I was about to complete my statement, he shouted,
"But I don't have a temper. I'm a nice person, right?"
"Yes! Yes, you are a nice person. It's just that you get angry sometimes and then you lose control of yourself and then you start attacking people."
"Ohh Really!. So I'm a bad person now." He said as he started to cry.
Again, he was drunk. He could even barely walk alone.
"No. You're not a bad person, it's just that I need you to cooperate with me because I'm your wife and I also need you to be following my instructions." I said to him,
"My wife? When did I get married? And how did it happen? Also, I can't follow instructions from anybody except my Lala. So who are you that you have the right to ask me to follow your instructions." He said.
"Okay, just calm down. Let's go upstairs and get you changed into something nicer and something that has a decent smell. Because, right now, You stink. It's as if you had a bath in alcohol." I said as I tried to lift him from the chair he was sitting on.
"Okay! Okay. Let's go. But wait.." He said.
"Yes, what?" I said.
"You said you wanted to tell me something." He said pointing at me.
"Ohh yeah. I wanted to tell you that whenever you are about to lose your mind or get angry, just close your eyes and think about me with your hands closed tightly. And then, you'll start feeling calm. Trust me! It works all the time. For me, when I'm about to get angry, I just close my eyes and think about my mom. Then I don't feel angry anymore." I said to him as he listened to me carefully.
"Okay. I've heard you. Since you said it worked for you, I'll try it." He said.
"Okay. You are now one step to becoming better by listening to my advice. So can we go now?" I said.
"Thank you!" He shouted as he embraced me tightly.
I was shocked. Because Jayson in his right sense would not want to get a hug from me.
"Ohh, okay. You're welcome." I said as I tried to push him off my body.
I tried and tried but all to no avail. Because he fell asleep immediately he said thank you.
So, I had to walk with him on my shoulder.it wasn't easy, but I managed.
First of all, I managed to raise him. Then, I started walking like somebody that's about to collapse.
That was how I struggled until we finally got to the room. When we entered, I pushed him onto the bed. And then I stretched for a very long time before he woke up.
While I was stretching, I thought of how I was going to get him changed all by myself.
The only thing I did was raise him and push him into the bathroom. Because he was awake by then.
He wasn't fully naked, at first, I only took off his shirt and his singlet. But I reasoned that it would be stupid for someone to bathe with Trousers on. So, I took his trousers off his legs.
After pushing him into the bathroom, I shut the door. Because I knew that I was not going to be able to bathe him.
While I was picking out his nightwear, I heard the shower sound. So I just waited for him to be done.
His towel was already in the bathroom. All he had to do was to take it and tie it around his waist when he was done bathing.
When he finished, he came out and I just closed my eyes. Because I was not ready to see what I'm not supposed to be seeing.
"Open your eyes! I'm on a towel. There is nothing to be shy about." He said with his sleepy eyes.
"Oo, Okay!" I said as I slowly opened my eyes.
"Yeah. So, have you selected anything for me to wear?" He said as he yawned out of tiredness.
"Yes! I have." As I turned to get the clothes I selected for him from the bed, the unexpected happened.
His towel fell off his waist.
"No! Put it back on! Put it back on!" I shouted.
"Huh?. What do you mean?" He asked stupidly.
"I mean! Put your towel back on your waist!" I shouted out of anger.
"What towel!" He shouted back.
"Hmm... You know what! Just take this, put it on. Now!" I shouted as I gave him the nightwear I chose for him.
"Ohh Okay! Thanks." He said as he collected the clothes from my hands.
Just then, he put it on and fell on the bed. I wondered where I was going to sleep. Because we have never slept on the same bed together.
So, I just arranged him properly on the bed. And I left to sleep on the couch.
While on the couch, I thought of how he was going to react to everything that happened that night. While thinking about it, I fell asleep.
It was morning. And when I woke up, I found myself on the bed and I asked myself,
"Wait, did I sleep walk again and sleep on the same bed with Jayson?!!. Oh no no no why did I make that mistake, oh Bella why would you make that can of stupid mistake now how will I tell him..." Before I could finish my statement Jayson came from nowhere and said,
"You don't have to tell me everything okay. I understand what happened and I can remember what happened last night too. So there's no need for you to apologize or tell me anything."
"Ohh okay," I said as I sighed heavily and I was surprised at the way he looked at me. So I had to ask him,
"Why are you wearing an apron?. Wait I hope you haven't turned that kitchen upside down, why did you go to the kitchen in the first place now I'll be the one that will now have to clean up the kitchen." I said and he was just smiling at me and I was like,
"Why are you smiling? It's not funny," I said as I stormed out of the room and went straight to the kitchen.
On my way to the kitchen, he was just smiling and laughing, and then I said to him while going to the kitchen,
"You know, you can be very annoying how will you just wake up and mess up..." before I could finish my statement I entered the kitchen and everywhere was looking sparkling clean, all the dishes were washed I was so so amazed and said to him
"Wait where you the one that did all these or did you hire a maid to do all these while I was asleep," he said
" Yeah I did all these myself to give you my first surprise" and I was like
"First surprise? so wait there are more surprises"
"Yep, "he said while nodding his head and I said
" Okay what's the next surprise and you did a great job " I did while winking at him and he smiled and winked back
"This way my lady," he said while directing me to the dining table and I walked majestically to the table and I saw a plate and said in a state of shock
"No, you must be kidding who made this food"
"I did I was the one that made it"
"Oh My God I'm literally in a state of shock and surprise can I taste it," I said already opening the food and eating it already before he then said
"Yeah dig in," he said laughing
"mmhh! so good," I said with food in my mouth and he laughed and said
"Is it okay?"
"Wait, you are asking if it's okay, it's more than okay. It's delicious! so tasty I love it." I said while laughing with food in my mouth.
I really enjoyed myself that morning, but there was one thing that I was still confused about.
And it was how I woke up on the bed. Knowing fully well that I slept on the couch. And I asked myself again,
"How did I sleep on the..." Just then, I was interrupted by Jayson and he said,
"On the bed right?" and I said,
"Yeah, that" and he said,
"I was the one that brought you to the bed" and I was like,
"How?"I asked and he said,
"I woke early because I had a very severe headache after yesterday's drinking.
And when I got up, I saw you on the couch almost about to fall off the couch so I quickly went to where you were and carried you to the bed and I covered you with the blanket and when to prepare my surprise for you" At this point, I was getting emotional but I didn't want him to see it so I said,
"Ohh thank you so so so much for what you have done, I literally didn't expect you to do this"
"No problem, after all, you are my wife! so you had to do according to your rules and regulations by taking care of me when I needed it." And I smiled and said,
"Ohh someone is reading my rules and regulations, that's good," I said as we both smiled at each other.
After our breakfast, he told me to teach him how to control his temper which I did and he also told me to teach him how to be nicer to people and more polite but I saw that it will be very hard for him to do so.
I told him that gradually with time, he will get used to it and he smiled and said,
"Let's go out to eat" and I was like,
"Yeah sure we can, are we going now," I said with an amazing face and he said,
"We will go in five minutes okay. So you can go and freshen up, touch up your makeup, and do all the stuff women normally do and I'll be waiting for you in the car ok so don't take too long". And I said,
"Okay! I'll be back in a jiffy!" Then I left.
