"Someone is hungry.." Shawn teased with a slight chuckle

"Damn my stomach! Such a traitor" I muttered within my breath, embarrassed.

"Since the maid ain't here yet and there is nothing to heat up, I would just make an order via Jumia Food. What do you want to have This morning?" Shawn asked.

"Spaghetti and fried plantain won't be bad" I replied.

Shawn takes his iPhone which was sitting on the glass table and typed away, or sorry.. He made his order.

"What are you taking?" I asked

"Am going for some local stuff this morning, a good combo of Poundo Potato and Egusi soup" he said.

"Ain't that too early?" I asked, giving him a disapproving look with my lips shifted to one side.

"Haven't you heard?" He asked

"Heard what?" I asked, confused.

"In the Morning eat like a King
Afternoon like a .... I think I have forgotten but I know that it said
In the Evening eat like a peasant" he said but continued

"Its like, you eat much in the morning, moderately in the afternoon and little in the evening, No 1 rule to avoid having a potbelly" he concluded

"Really?" I asked intrigued

"Yup,baby" he said.

"Who told you that?" I queried

"I heard it somewhere, forgotten Where" he answered.

"Oh damn! This place is a mess" I stated the obvious as I stood up from the couch.

"The maid would be here soon, dont bother" he added

"Oh Good! Cos I am not a home chores person." I said a bit relieved.

Don't look at me that way, I hate doing chores but like a clean environment. It isn't weird and am not ashamed to say it.
I just have to make good money enough to hire a maid, cos this girl is lazy like that.

"Why ain't I surprised" he said amusingly

"Yeah, why ain't you?" I asked curiously

"Any girl would wanna act like a perfect home keeper to please me and make 'em be included in my list of potential good housewives." he stated

"And thats where you failed,Shawn. I ain't gonna be no man's housewife. I can't spend the rest of my life being a perfect housewife, taking care of the home by morning, watching movies by noon, cooking meals by evening and pleasuring my husband with sex at night. I would rather be out there, signing deals, holding meetings, owning estates, dining and having little party time with friends, making money and making money and making money again, again and again.

Don't get me wrong I would make out time for my kids, be as good as I can to my husband but I aint being no housewife. This lady here is gonna be a boss ass bitch, making millions, if not billions and building a happy rich home. And of course, My husband has to be wealthy too. Ain't gonna be making money for him"I concluded with a sense of pride for my future plans.. Seems so close.

"Wow!.. Am impressed.. Not every girl thinks that way and that's special, you are special" he said, looking at me with so much interest and amazement.

He seems to recollect himself as he asked.

"And what steps have you taken to achieve all these?"

"Didn't I tell you? I am into leather making. I make bags, am sort of, like a bag designer. I have 7 customers at the moment and they buy in bulk for their boutiques. Its not much but its something, I plan to expand it you know? Make it an official brand name, make room for more customers, employ good leather makers as demands for my bags increase and when its stable enough to have a manager run the bag industry, I would move into making foot wears. build it to be stable enough to have a manager run it while I move into cosmetics, am not into producing it but I can hire experts to make good cosmetic products.
