She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 345 - RESPONSIBLE LUIZ

At five in the morning, the students started waking up, looking forward to the view of the sun coming out from the east. Rissy woke up early as well since she as planning to buy groceries for the next few days for their use.

Three students have volunteered to come with them, so they prepared to set out. When they arrived at the living room, Chris was sitting on the couch with morning coffee and his tablet.

"Good morning. Are you guys going somewhere?" He asked while putting down his coffee on the table.

Rissy greeted him back as she nodded her head. "We're buying groceries at the nearest market."

"Oh. How about I go with you instead? Just let the students enjoy time with their classmates. I can still carry the heavy items for you."

"Is that okay? I mean, I don't really mind the students coming with me."

Chris looked at the students and they knew exactly what that look was all about. He was asking them to give them time. "Teacher, since he wants to go with you and he's a man, isn't it better compared to us girls?"

"Right. And honestly, I want to watch the sunset with everyone, too." Another student added with a longing look on her face.

"Just let him go with you, teach. He's much better compared to the three of us."

Rissy stood there with her eyebrow raised at her students. 'Do you think I don't know what you're thinking?' She asked mentally while looking at them. "Alright. Be at your best and don't make a ruckus since Mr. and Mrs. Dumrique are still resting. We will be back as soon as possible."

"Oh! It's fine if you will take some time." One of the students stated which brought blush to Rissy's face. Her students knew that she's dating with Chris and from time to time, they'd just tease her like this.

"Let's go?" Chris asked her and she faintly nodded her head. She walked beside him and went to get his car in order to go to the market.

The students were happily chatting at the beach and those who were staying inside their tents have woken up as well. Luiz looked at his classmates and counted them, making sure that everyone was there.

"Where's teacher Chan?" asked Sean when he noticed that their teacher wasn't around.

"She's gone on a date with Mr. Secretary. They're buying groceries at the market." The student, who was supposed to accompany their teacher, told the class with sly grin on her face.

"Hey guys, I have an idea." They immediately gathered together to hear what this idea was all about. "Since we're planning to surprise our teacher, how about we include her date?"

"You mean, we'll let Sir Chris do the surprise for her in our behalf?"

"Kind of." The student turned to Luiz and asked, "Do you know any place here that can be a good spot for their date?"

"I don't have any idea." Luiz answered truthfully. "But I can ask my brother-in-law later. We can set it up in the afternoon."

"Good. Good." The continued their discussion but when they noticed the faint light coming from the sunrise, they all stopped talking and looked to the east. The beautiful sun was slowly rising over the horizon, dispelling the remaining darkness of the night, symbolizing hope for another beautiful and blissful day.

They were all amazed with the beauty of the sunrise, specially that they all grow up in the city, covered with buildings and more buildings.

Some of them were taking pictures and eventually they decided to ask the body guard to take one class picture for them. "Let's take another tomorrow with Teacher Chan."

"It's a good souvenir for our class."

Half an hour later, they all went inside the house and waited for Luiz to give them instructions. Although they were given free access to everything inside the house, they still followed Luiz since he was relative to the owner.

Luiz opened the fridge and found many ingredients and the cupboards still got lots of groceries. 'Hmm. Did they just use buying groceries as an excuse to go on a date?' Luiz asked himself with a faint smile on his lips. 'Ah! Those were probably for the next few days. Teacher Chan must have been feeling embarrassed that my sister and brother-in-law took care of everything.' After this realization, he took out lots of ingredients and placed them on the table.

"Alright. Sean, Chloe, Clarisse and I, will be making our breakfast. In that way, once Teacher Chan and Uncle Chris comes back, we can eat together."

"How about your sister and brother-in-law?"

"When there's nothing work-related stuff to do, they usually wake up late so, don't worry about them. They'll take care of themselves." Even though Luiz has stated that, he was already planning to cook extra food just in case they'll wake up early. "Who wants coffee, milk or tea, juice or glass of water?" Everybody raised their hands. "You can just get it yourself here. Just come two at a time so that we won't crowd the kitchen."

Luiz was indeed liked by everyone because they listened to him whether they're inside the classroom or when they're not. And to think, they're no longer considered classmates because class was over and they will all be separating to different paths soon.

In two pairs, students went to the kitchen to make coffee, milk or any drink that they like in the morning. The four students were also working their best to provide a hearty breakfast for everyone.

"Morning." Cayenne greeted them with a sweet smile as she walked downstairs together with Stefan.

"Good morning, Mr. and Mrs. Dumrique." The students greeted back which made Luiz look over the counter top and found the two walking towards the kitchen.

"Sis, do you have any cravings? I'm cooking with my classmates today." Luiz stated while showing the food ingredients on the table.

"No cravings today. I'll eat whatever you guys have." Cayenne replied while looking through the dish organizer to find a cup. She turned to Stefan who was sitting on a chair, looking at her who was moving around. "Black coffee or café au lait?"

"Café au lait."

"Okay." Cayenne took out milk from the fridge and heated it while making coffee on the side.

The students were looking at them with great interest, specially the girls. "Why do I feel that they're so sweet even when asking what kind of coffee to drink?"

"I feel you girl. Their kind of relationship is what I like."

"Oh! Really? Then, you must be prepared to throw divorce papers to your husband in the future." Another student stated which dampened the mood of the other.

"No way!" Who knows? The husband might agree to the divorce. They wouldn't risk such thing to happen. Not all men are like Stefan after all.
