After taking a shower, Remy quickly dressed up in dark gray pajamas. He went downstairs and was welcomed by the aroma of food. The dinner that Westley had prepared was just set on the table.
"Remy, just in time! Come on, we can have dinner now." Gabrielle greeted him with a smile and invited him over for the dinner.
Remy sat down and looked at the dishes that were placed on the table.
"Damn, man! You have a sharp nose. You came down just when the dishes got ready," Westley teased with a smirk.
"Well, what choice do I have? The aroma of the food pulled me here. And look at the dishes you've cooked. They seem so delicious. How can I stop?" Remy replied with his eyes wide and kept sniffing the food.
Though Westley was really good at cooking, he seldom cooked anything for Remy.
"Gabrielle, I should thank you. It's because of you that I will be able to eat these delicious dishes cooked by Westley." Remy looked at Gabrielle. There was a broad smile on his face as he looked at her gratefully.
"Oh, Remy! Eat as much as you want. Westley has cooked a lot tonight!" Gabrielle passed the big bowl of soup to him and urged him to start.
"You don't have to worry about him, Gabrielle. If he wants to have soup, he'll take it. You don't need to help him. He's not a guest here!" Westley said with a bit of annoyance. He just could not bear to see Gabrielle paying attention to any other man. It filled him with jealousy.
"It's alright. Remy's hands are precious. He has to use his hands to save people from illness. And it's not a big deal if I pass around some soup to him. Thank you for cooking so many dishes tonight, Westley. Now you too have some soup and replenish yourself!" Gabrielle started to fill a bowl of soup for Westley.
"Gabrielle, you are my wife! For me, your hands are more precious than anyone else's," Westley said with a serious expression.
"Come on guys! Can we eat now? I've no wish to witness this public display of affection between the two of you. I just want to eat peacefully!" Remy was getting restless and hungry. He didn't want to be there while the couple kept showing off their love.
He hadn't been aware that Westley was a man who liked to show off his love in front of others. Remy always thought Westley didn't like public display of affection. But he realized that after marriage Westley had changed a lot.
He had often heard people say that men change after they get married. Now Remy too believed in it because he was seeing a drastic change in Westley since he got married.
Now one look at Westley, and a man could learn ways to spoil his wife. He was literally obsessing over her.
However weird those changes seemed, Remy liked them a lot. Nowadays, Westley looked much more sentimental and considerate.
The next thought that came up in his mind was whether he too would change after he got married.
"Just eat your food and stop worrying about us. If you still feel uncomfortable, you may finish your meal as soon as possible and go back to your room!" Westley said as he looked at him with a smirk.
They had been friends from a long time, and knew each other very well. Therefore, Westley didn't worry that Remy would get angry by his blatant replies.
"Of course not! I want to have dinner with you!" Remy smiled and sat back comfortably.
"So, what are you going to do tomorrow? Any plans? Are you going outside?" Gabrielle didn't care about the manner in which the two men communicated. After all, it was the common way between Westley and his friends.
Therefore, she didn't have worry about its effect on their relationship.
"Hmm. Tomorrow? Well, I don't have any plan. I came back to spend some time with you. After that, if there is nothing else to be done here, I will return to Antawood. What are your plans?" Remy looked at them and asked casually.
"We are also going back to Antawood in two days. Too many things have happened in Bangkok, and it has been a long period that we have been away from Antawood. It's time to return. We have to go back to spend the holiday." Gabrielle shared their plans with him.
They had discussed about it earlier and reached the decision. And Westley had agreed that it was t
