"You get the best of both worlds, Chill it out, take it slow" I sang along with the Hannah Montana' show that was ongoing on Disney channel.
"What's this? Louisa Kendrick Harrison are you 12!?" my partner George yelled over the sound of the TV before changing the channel.
"BABE!!!" I yelled and attacked him.
"Babe what? how do you still watch Disney channel up to date and you freaking know all the lyrics of their songs!" he shot back.
"Please change the channel, give me back the remote I beg you", with every word I said I made an extra effort to get the remote from George's hand.
"No my love watch the news, girls watch Disney Channel, and real women watch the news", George said before laughing really hard and I joined in as well.
"But from where did that come from?" I asked still trying to stop laughing.
"It came from my brain young lady, now kindly sit down and be updated on the current happenings in your country", George said as he took a sit to listen to what the newscaster was saying.
I rolled my eyes and shamelessly took the opposite sit and all I could do was murmur and plot my revenge.
Being bored to death, I took my phone and played my all-time favorite game Scrabble, while playing the words from the newscaster's mouth stopped me right in my tracks, " A renowned cartel had accidentally shipped out thousands of packages of drugs disguised as coffee bags".
I chuckled the moment I heard the full story and I turned to my partner.
"Husband man see what you are watching, the news keeps bearing bad news every single time and ends up ruining one's mood but my Disney channel shakes the whole negative energy away". I said sarcastically to George my husband and if looks could kill I would have probably been 6ft by now.
I waited for when George was done with the news and I watched my Disney channel in peace as once a Disney baby always a Disney baby.
The next morning George requested I join him to the supermarket to buy some groceries for the house but I declined.
"Why don't you want to come along with me?" George asked a bit puzzled.
"Because whenever I go through the various aisles of the supermarket I end up buying things that are not on my list and this time I do not have any free money to spare.
"Okay, what do you want?" George asked whilst stroking my cheeks.
"I don't just want only one thing I need a couple of other things too and I don't know if you would be willing to buy them for me. I said whilst giving him the puppy face he found irresistible.
George laughed out so loud and I stood there dumbfounded like I had said something funny.
"Babe really?"
"Young lady find your way to the car this instant", George said tugging me to follow him.
I obediently followed him whilst smiling sheepishly. I said to myself "Louisa 1, George 0" I did the victory dance in my head.
We got to the supermarket and we bought a lot of things that we needed at home and among the things we bought were, cheese, bread, coffee, noodles, etc and my husband George was kind enough to get me all the stuff that I needed and I was ecstatic. We got home pretty late because George had a couple of errands he needed to run in town. After having our bath we decided to have our night coffee before going to bed.
I went to the kitchen to get our favorite cups to brew our coffee.
"Babe your coffee is ready I yelled from the kitchen so George could hear me from the living room.
"Thank you my love", he said giving me a peck on my cheek. I handed his cup to him and he took a sip. "Nice Baby, I think I love this brand of coffee".
While George was taking his coffee I had to remove the chicken from the microwave only for me to get back to a drunken George.
“George,” I patted him on the back and all that came out of his mouth were gibberish.
“My love, did you take any alcohol?” I knew that was a dumb question because my husband never drinks.
I kept thinking of a valid explanation as to why my husband was acting like he was intoxicated or was high on some cheap drugs. “Oh drugs! Coffee!” I exclaimed making my way to the cabinet where I had dropped the new coffee pack we had bought, I opened and perceived it and what graced my nose was a strong smell. The type of smell I usually perceived from my drug-addict neighbor’s house and I did perceive it when I was brewing the coffee but I thought it was its unique smell.
The news from last night struck me, I started putting everything together and I couldn’t believe that the cartel, drugs, and coffee in disguise that the newscaster broadcasted yesterday was actually true.
“My poor baby, they got you”, I threw away the packet of the supposedly coffee and went to my laptop to search on “How to save a person from drug intake”. Tomorrow I was going to deal with the supermarket but today my poor baby was my priority, I looked at how my husband was playing like a child and I shook my head, “It’s gonna be a very long night Georgie”.
