She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 423 - [Bonus ] WHAT MISTAKE HAVE I DONE?

Today, she\'s no longer ordering him around but they\'re acting like strangers.

In the morning, he woke up early to cook water the plants and found her sitting on the porch with a magazine in her hand. "Do you want coffee?" He asked but Sabrina picked up a mug from her side which was blocked by the magazine.

"I have mine. Thanks for asking." She put down the mug again and continued reading while bathing from the rays of the morning sun.

Around seven in the morning, Erwin looked for her because Lucia was about to cook breakfast and they wanted to know what she wanted to it. He found her at the garden, swinging on the swing that Stefan made for Cayenne.

"What do you want for breakfast? Lucia will cook it for you."

Sabrina stopped swinging and looked at him. "I\'m not hungry for now. I\'ll cook my own breakfast later."

"O-okay."

Erwin left her alone because she seemed to be mad or upset at him. He didn\'t even know what mistake he did.

Sabrina just watched him go and smiled. \'Now, be bothered with my actions and think only of me. You can\'t think about any other woman beside me.\' She told herself but she realized it was wrong. "That\'s being selfish and manipulative. He won\'t like it. Never mind."

When everyone finished eating their meal at nine, she went to the kitchen to make her own breakfast. Erwin was also there, talking to someone over the phone.

"Are you sure you don\'t want me to come and pick you up?" he asked with his fingers pressed on his temple. He was currently leaning on the counter while taking the call. "Make sure to update me of your location every fifteen minutes." He nodded his head to what the other person said even though they couldn\'t see each other. "I understand you\'re not young anymore but your safety is important."

After few minutes, he put down his phone and watched Sabrina picking some strawberry jam and bread. "Is that your food for breakfast?" Erwin asked when he saw the things on the table.

"I wanted to cook but I lost the mood to cook now. I just want to eat something quick." She spread the jam and returned the remaining items back to the cupboard.

"I can cook food for you if you want. That\'s too little for breakfast."

"No, I\'m fine." Sabrina picked up her plate and brought it back inside her room. "Damn it! Who was he talking to? I really want to know who it was but I can hear any words at all. He didn\'t mention any name as well. Should I ask Cayenne to know if he got any close female friends? Argh. This is so stressful!" she slumped on the couch and ate the bread quickly. She munched on them angrily as if she was biting his own body.

One hour later, she went back downstairs to return the plate and a young man also came inside with sweats dotting his forehead. Still, he looked handsome and cheerful. Erwin also came inside from the backyard while holding a basket with freshly harvested vegetables.

"Thank god, you\'ve arrived safely." Erwin rubbed the boys head and smiled. "I was really worried. Next time, don\'t take the bus. I\'ll come and pick you up or young miss will get mad."

"Hn. I understand." Justin nodded his head and wiped his forehead with the back of his hand. He looked towards Sabrina who was standing in the middle of the living room, watching him and Erwin. "Who is she?" Justin asked Erwin in a whisper.

"Oh! I forgot to introduce you." Erwin approached Sabrina and smiled. "This is Sabrina. She\'s a guest." Then he looked to Sabrina and introduced Justin to her. "His name is Justin. He works here as a dishwasher and Lucia\'s eldest daughter will teach him how to read, write and calculate. And he comes home every weekend so, you didn\'t see him when you arrive."

"Nice to meet you." Sabrina walked towards Justin to shorten the distance between them and reach out for a handshake.

"Nice to meet you, too." Justin wiped his hands several times with the side of his shorts before shaking her hand.

"You didn\'t really have to wipe your hands like that."

The three of them went to the kitchen altogether since she had to return the plate. She lowered her head and grinned widely for her own stupidity. She thought that Erwin was talking to a woman earlier but it turned out, he was calling the helper who was coming back for work.

"Are you alright?" Erwin asked when he noticed that she was lowering her head and was very quiet.

Sabrina schooled her face and put the place on the sink. "I\'m fine."

"What do you want for lunch? I\'ll be cooking this time?"

"I\'ll eat later. You don\'t have to worry about me. I will cook when I\'m hungry."

Erwin frowned and at this point, he was really sure that Sabrina was avoiding him but he still didn\'t know what mistake he did. He wanted to ask her but Sabrina was done washing her plate and already walked away.

"Are you guys fighting?" Justin asked because he also noticed the tension between them. "Or was I thinking too much?"

"I don\'t know what happened to her." Erwin shook his head and shrug. "Well, she will be fine later. Just ignore her." He looked for the cookbook and chose several dishes for lunch. He looked at the dishes pages after pages but he couldn\'t focus at all. He was really bothered with her recent conduct in front of him.

Justin was washing his hands and was ready to help when Erwin stood up from his seat. "Can you wash the veggies for me? I\'ll just talk to her for a minute."

"O-okay." Justin scratched the tip of her nose while watching him leave in a hurry.

"Where\'s sir Erwin?" Lucia asked when she came to the kitchen and found Justin washing the vegetables. "He told me that he wanted to cook for lunch."

"I think, we\'ll have to cook for lunch. He went to chase after miss Sabrina. I think they\'re fighting."

"Oh." Lucia nodded in understanding and started looking for dishes that she can cook for everyone.
