Chapter 391 - Cannibalism

When the car pulled into the entrance of the house, Leena stepped out of the car. A few steps away from the door, she heard a roaring woman's voice. ''Aunt Jalapeno has started.''

''He deserves.'' Replied Devin.​​

In the living hall, Nick listened to Aunt Jalapeno's shouts without countering back. He was not angry; instead, happy that people cared for a nobody like him.

''You dare to leave the house for that fake b.u.t.t without informing me?''

''I am sorry_''

''If I hear you running away from home next time, I will kick your b.u.t.t.''

Nick nodded his head vigorously. At last, she turned the subject to butts again?

''Let's forgive him, Aunt Jalapeno.'' Leena stepped in and signaled Nick to go into his room. Nick gladly seized the opportunity.

''Stupid, idiot.'' Aunt Jalapeno stared at his retreating back of Nick. ''Look at his bum. It looks so thin. I should prepare a nice meal before I squeeze them.'' Having said that, she went to the kitchen.

Meanwhile, Leena was in thoughts. ''My love for bananas or Aunt Jalapeno's love for butts? Which is stronger?"

With nothing to do, Leena followed Aunt Jalapeno to help her with cooking. Cutie and Carrot, who were playing, also followed behind her. 

Just in time, Leena received a call from her brother. ''Are you planning to return with the second-born directly?''

''With your blessings, I am planning, dear sister.'' Replied Wilbur with a grin. ''What's my daughter doing? Let me talk to that brat.''

''Hey, Cutie.'' Leena called Cutie and gave her the mobile ''Your dad.''

'What does he wants now?' Cutie internally muttered.

''What is it, dad?'' She said.

''My sweet daughter. Is this how you talk to your dad?'' Wilbur said. ''I will be coming day-after-tomorrow. Are you excited to see your dad?''

''Can you popone to nest week?'' Cutie asked in hope. She is enjoying her summer break here. Going to Leena's office, playing with the employees, and on top of that, she has full-on entertainment with her flute teacher Geelad. If her dad comes back, she will have nothing except the boring lectures.

''No.'' Wilbur sternly declared. ''I will land 'there tomorrow itself to annoy you.''

Hearing her father's response, Cutie cut the call in the middle of their conversation and went back to playing with Carrot. Annoying father, she muttered.

''Taste the soup, Leena.'' Aunt Jalapeno said, placing a bowl in front of her.

As the first drop of soup touched her tongue, Leena felt her tastebuds awakened. Aunt Jalapeno's husband must be one lucky man. ''Are you married, Aunt Jalapeno?'' Unlike last time, Leena didnot back down in bringing the topic about her husband.

Aunt Jalapeno's face twisted like she had eaten the fresh tamarinds at the start of summer.

''I am sorry,'' Leena added on, observing her indecisive face. ''If I had_''

''It's fine, Leena dear.'' Aunt Jalapeno sighed. ''It's been a long time I forgot about my marriage.''

''Where do I start? We were neighbors.'' Aunt Jalapeno started. ''My family had a Jalapeno farm, and his family had a pumpkin farm.''

''Interesting,'' Leena exclaimed. ''Continue.''

''We grew up together as childhood friends. Seeing our closeness, our parents thought we are in love and arranged a marriage alliance. At first, we wanted to protest, but then we decided to give it a chance since we didnot had love interests. But unfortunately, two years later, I had to divorce him.''

''Why?'' The most awaiting mystery, Leena wanted to unravel.

''That bummer cheated on me.'' Aunt Jalapeno dug the knife on the apple fruit sharply. She wished it was a pumpkin fruit.

''How can he cheat on you and go to another woman? '' Leena felt bad for Aunt Jalapeno. She is such a sweet person.

''It's not a woman, Leena.'' Aunt Jalapeno exhaled a deep sigh. ''That bummer had a secret affair with a man.''

Leena: '' ''

Leena stared at her face without blinking. ''Didn't you know about him before marriage?'' 

''Even he didnot know about his preferences.'' Aunt Jalapeno shook her head. ''That tube light realized after our marriage.''

Leena scratched her head in embarrassment. This is the back story behind her divorce? Leena seriously wished to see him once. But this is unlikely possible. Aunt Jalapeno already divorced him, and what are the odds that she will meet him again?

....

Night arrived; Kurt cooked a glazed Salmon and garnished it with oregano for dinner. He took a shower and returned to the dining room, ready to devour, but an interruption irked him. ''I am going to kill this security guard today.''

He reluctantly got up, ready to knock the security guard for disturbing him again. The moment Kurt opened the door, his jaw dropped to the floor. It's been fifteen days since he saw her. Kurt didnot want to admit it, but lately, she is the cause of his nightmares.

Kyle winked at him, her lean body swaying uncontrollably. 

''Did you drink?'' Kurt asked. She knows his house address. Does that mean she can come here anytime? 

''Yesssss....'' Her scream was loud enough to wake the dead. ''Opennnnn the doooorrr..''

''Okay, okay. Calm down.'' Kurt opened the door. Scared that she would trip, he guided her to the couch. She seems to be more obedient when she is drunk.

''You wanna eat something?''

''I want to eat you.'' 

''I understand you are not in senses.'' Kurt sighed. ''But you shouldn't think about cannibalism even when you are drunk. It's against the laws. Alright?'' He scolded Kyle, treating her like a kid.

"Okkkaayyy." Kyle vigorously nodded her head.

''Wait here. Let me get something for you to eat.'' Before Kurt got up to leave, Kyle pulled him to the couch again. ''Can I eat you.''

Kurt sighed. There she goes again!
