Misconception(On Hold)

Insert 26: Constraints

"I need a bucket of water" Stephen said to the maid.
"Sir do you mean a glass of water?" the maid suggested.
"I said a bucket or a drum of water" he replied with Adelaide still in his arm.
"Ok sir" she replied as she gets him a bucket of water.
"Sir a glass of water can revive her" the maid suggested.
"And only a letter from me can make you lose your job" Stephen replies as the maid leaves hurriedly.

"Wakey wakey" he said as he poured her water he scooped with his hand.
"What the heck?" she said as she wakes up as Stephen pours her the remaining water.
"What? Why is it raining here?"she said half consciously.
"Wake up now" Stephen said.
"What? I'm so wet" she said as she looked at herself.
"You apparently fainted in my mansion so I tried to wake you up with a bucket of water" he replied smirking.
"You're so mean" she said as she playfully punched him everywhere.

"You know what? You look more beautiful when you are wet. " he teased as Adelaide looked at him in shock.
"I didn't mean it the way you are thinking. I don't know why you are always getting me wrong. I'm a saint" Stephen said as he laughed heartily.
"How would I go home like this?" Adelaide asked as her cloth was soaked by water.
The foam wasn't soaked as it was water resistant. "Advantage of being a son of a billionaire. You can pour water on your foam without it getting wet" Adelaide thought as she made a mental note to add it to her advantage of being a billionaire list.
"You would walk home naked" Stephen replied as he shrugged.
"Stephen!" She screamed.
"Sorry" he replied obviously not ready for her banter . "Ok if you want to go home, you can wear any of my Jean and my shirt" he replied.
"I'm soaking wet. I need to change up now" she said.
"Ok. That's my closet. Go and select any Jean and shirt" you like he said.
Adelaide picked a black crazy Jean and a black hoodie.
"I want to wear this" she said as she showed him the hoodie she had picked.

"What? Why did you choose a hoodie?" Stephen asked?
"Hoodies are my favourite. They are best at hiding faces" she replied and "I love colour black a lot." She added.
"Wow that's nice to hear. First time I'm hearing that a girl loves colour black is also my best colour" Stephen replied. "But they are my best clothes" Stephen said.
"Please!!! I'm your partner remember. I would bring it back tomorrow" she said.
"I don't need it back. You can take it" he replied as Adelaide scampered into the bathroom.
Stephen laughed amused at Adelaide's childishness.

"Thank God you are out. I thought you would sleep in the bathroom. You came out fast" Stephen replied.
"Yes. Stephen please can you help me with a nylon?" she asked?
"Do you want to put your pad inside the nylon?" he teased.
"You're so gross" she replied.
"Sorry" he said.
"You've told me sorry many times today Adelaide said.
Whatever Stephen replied.
I want the nylon to put my wet trousers, underwear and sweatshirt"she said.
"Oh" he replied as he directed her to get the nylon.
"Stella I need you here now" Stephen said.
"Wow so you have intercom in your room. You are so rich" she said.
"Yes . Not everyone is as poor as your family" he said matter of factly.
"Oh yes that's true" she said genuinely.
"You're not angry" he asked?
"No I'm not angry" she replied.
"Sorry for what I said. I was just kidding" Stephen apologised.
"You said the truth and I ain't angry" she replied as she stared at some drawings.
"You draw?" she asked as she stared at the drawing. It was a beautiful garden. The trees seemed to be dancing in delight while the sun smiled. The flowers also seemed to be happy because they were filled with life.
"This is beautiful"Adelaide said as she touched the paining softly.
"Before you go home, I'm gonna show you. It's my garden. I drew it because I love it" Stephen said as he touched the painting carefully. "I also paint" he added
"Wow. That's great. I'm looking forward to seeing the garden" Adelaide said.
"Thanks and you'd see it" he replied.
"Sir I'm here" Stella interrupted.
"Actually Stella I want you to bring a plate of popcorn and a packet of juice with a glass cup" Stephen said.
"Sir what about you? Ain't you gonna have a drink?" Stella asked innocently.
"Yes. I'm sure you are not deaf. The glass of juice and plate of popcorn is for me" Stephen replied.
"What about the lady?" She asked.
"She doesn't eat pop corn and she is allergic to fruit juice" Stephen replied.
"What?" Adelaide exclaimed.
"What?" Stephen asked feigning innocent.
"You lie so easily Stephano" she replied.
"What - did - you- just- call- me?" Stephen asked.
"I said Stephano", Adelaide replied.
"Wow so you now call me Stephano? Only my friends should call me Stephano,you have no right Addy" Stephen said looking at her.
"And only my friends have the right to call me Addy. You have no right to call me Addy" Adelaide replied.
"You always have a good comeback for whatever I say" Stephen replied.
"That's why I'm a genius" Adelaide replied.
"Yes you're a genius. A genius with the brain of a cockroach" Stephen teased.
"What's going on here?" Mrs Alexander asked as she entered inside.
"Good evening ma" Adelaide greeted shyly. She had watched lots of movies and have seen how rich women treated the lower class with contempt. She was scared Mrs Xander was going to order her out of the house.
"Oh good evening my pretty girl. How are you doing?" Mrs Xander asked with a smile which made Adelaide to lighten up a bit.
"I'm fine ma" Adelaide replied.
"Stephen your girlfriend is so beautiful. I can't believe you finally have a girlfriend" Mrs Alexander said happily.
"Mum she isn't my girlfriend. She is just my classmate" Stephen replied.
"A classmate wearing your best hoodie? I remember the day Luke wore it. You literally yanked it out of his body" Mrs Alexander replied.
"Actually ma I fainted so Stephen poured me a bucket of water and he wet my clothes. So he told me to take this cloth" Adelaide explained.
"What? Stephen why did you pour her a bucket of water and why did she faint? Mrs Alexander asked Stephen who eyed Adelaide furiously.
"Actually mum Adelaide didn't use the lift to enter into my room so she fainted because she was tired of climbing the stairs" Stephen replied smiling.
"Really? Oh my God. Sorry dear" Mrs Alexander replied while Adelaide stared at Stephen with her mouth wide opened.
"Ma, Stephen is lying. He ordered his dog to chase me around the compound" Adelaide said.
"What? Is that true Stephen? Mrs Alexander asked.
"No mum she's lying. Actually she fainted because Rex was pursuing her. I didn't order Rex to pursue her."
"You lied at first Stephen" Mrs Alexander said.
"Sorry mum" Stephen replied pouting.
"You just hurt your poor mum" Mrs Alexander said pretending to be sad.
"I would never lie to you mum. I'm sorry" Stephen replied.
"Ma actually he didn't order Rex to pursue me but he didn't stop Texting either" Adelaide explained.
"No need to explain daughter in-law. I see you make my son so happy" Mrs Alexander replied. "What's the name?" she asked.
"Adelaide." Adelaide Rollins" she added.
"What a nice name. So Stella why are you standing here?" Mrs Alexander asked.
"Master Stephen requested for a plate of popcorn and a glass of juice for only himself" she explained.
"What? Stephen how would you do that to your girlfriend?" Mrs Alexander asked.
"Mum I I well, well, I was just joking"he said smiling.
"Ok. Stella go and get two plates of popcorn and two glasses of juice for my son and his girlfriend" Mrs Alexander said as she leaves the room with Stella.
"Your mum is so nice and she isn't grumpy like you" Adelaide said.
"Thanks for your lovely comment"Stephen replied sarcastically.
"So what do you think we should do as our project?" Stephen asked.
"Since you know how to draw, I would write a story while you draw the pictures. The topic would be human and how they think" she said happily.
"Oh but I don't want to draw" Stephen replied.
"You would draw Stephen. I'm sure that with our lovely skill, we would come out with the best mark" Adelaide explained.
"Ok I accept not because I love your concept but because I'm under...."
"Constraint" Adelaide completed.
"How do you know that I wanted to say constraint?" Stephen asked confused.
"Because I know" she replied happily.
"You are one hell of a pack" Stephen said.
"And you are a very weird person" she replied. "Would you mind showing me some of your pictures that you painted?" she asked.
"No" he replied
"No?" She asked
"Yes" he replied.
"Yes?" She asked.
"No I mean yes. I mean no. Ok yes I would show you" he replied scratching his hair.
