Mother came out from the kitchen holding a frying spoon.

“Son so early to go to the hospital?

She asked.

“Yes mother! I have some patients I need to attain to this morning”

He replied.

“Won’t you eat breakfast before going, I waked so early to prepare breakfast for you and your wife”

“Mother I will take coffee at the office so you keep the food when am back I will eat it”

Justin said.

“Okay Son!

She said and walked back to the kitchen.

“Mother let me see him off to the car I will soon join you in the kitchen”

I shouted to her hearing.

“Wait oooo!

Mother ran back to us just about to open the door.

“What is it mother?

Justin asked.

“Son did you give your unborn child a kiss?

She asked.

We starried at each other, mother is just being so unbelievable, what is she trying to do here.

“No mother!

He answered.

“See this boy ooo! Don’t you know you suppose to be giving this unborn baby a warm kiss while leaving the house, you are not romatic Justin at all, I thought you took your father’s steps of being romatic, what are you still waiting for? Oya give this my grandchild a kiss”

Mother sounded being so serious.

Justin looked at me with those his beautiful and romatic eyes and kissed me at my tummy.

“Mother can I go now?

He asked still starring at me with those his charming eyes.

“You can go now and I don’t want to remind you to be romatic with your wife”

She said and went back to the kitchen.

“Gosh! Mother is really acting like a drama queen, are you sure we can cope with the pretending because of the way mother is doing?

I asked as I executed him to the car.

“For sure, we can cope beside the pretending will not take long because mother will be leaving anytime soon”

He said.

“Okay! Take care and come back on time”

I said.

“I will dear”

He replied and zoomed out.

“So what are cooking mother?

“You can say that again”

“So what and what should I help you out with?

“I don’t need any help my daughter beside even if I need I won’t call you because I don’t want to you nor my unborn grandchild”

She said.

“Oh mother! It seems you what pamper me too much”

I sounded.

“Yes my daughter I need to pamper you oooo! Did you know how long I have waited and yawned for this day to come, a day my son will introduce his wife to me so my daughter allow me to pamper you as much as I want”

She said.

I dont know what to say anymore, I thought what her reaction will be when she will find out that we have been playing and deceiving her.

Look at how he happy she is thinking that am I her daughter in law.

She is such a good woman with a good heart she did not deserve this from us.

Hours later Justin came back and the food competition began.

“You have fifteen minutes to run up with your dishes”

Mother shouted being our judge.

Fifteen minutes past, we were done with the food and dished out.

“Let me see what you guys prepare, so Jenny what did you cook?

She asked.

“I cooked Egusi soup with bitter leaf”

I replied.

“Oh I see! What of Justin?

“Mother I prepared a delicious banga soup with bitter leaf”

He said.

“Okay! Let the tasting begin”

She said.

She tasted the two soups and gave the same remark, yummy and delicious.

“Mother who is the best chef?

Justin asked feeling so

excited he will win.

“Dont feel so excited yet Justin until mother call out the result”

I sounded.

“Justin your banga soup is so delicious but what failed you is the meat and the stock fish were undone and one more thing the pepper was so hot, I don’t know if you want to kill your judge with pepper”

Mother said and Justin’s face changed automatically.

“Jenny kudos to you,your Egusi soup is so superb, yummy and delicious so I hereby announce you as the best chef in this competition”

Mother said.

“I told you that am going to win you, you see I won, thank you mother”

I shouted.

Justin sounded jokey.

“Mother did not do anything, am the best chef”

I shouted.

“I know my son is also a best chef but your wife is more than a best, as they said woman belongs to the kitchen, they knows how to prepare a delicious food”
