Chapter 5 – The makan malam, majlis makan malam -
Cuddy was talking to Erin Pierce, a woman she had been Friends with, for quite a long time. Erin was a nurse at the hospital; she was funny, had light-brown hair and hazel eyes and didn’t hesitate to say yes when Cuddy asked her to go with her, to House’s dinner.
At 7.45pm Erin showed up at Cuddy’s house. They had arranged to take just one car and there she was with a cute green dress, nothing very fancy and a bit casual. Cuddy opened the door and smiled. She was almost finished doing her make-up. She had a blue dress that made her eyes even lebih brilliant and sparkle like a freshly cut diamond. They left in Erin’s black Jeep to House’s apartment.
It was exactly 8pm when Lisa Cuddy and Erin Pierce knocked on House’s door. Wilson was the one who opened it because House was in the dapur finishing up with the makan malam, majlis makan malam preparations.
“He says it is a surprise.” Wilson told them. “I’m not even allowed in.”
The two women laughed, entered and left their coats on the couch, Erin and Wilson were already talking animatedly and Cuddy decided to leave them to socialize and see what House was cooking up.
“Need help?” Cuddy asked him.
“No! And anda can’t see what I’m preparing for all of us. It’s a surprise.” He answered her, blocking her view into the kitchen, to that she could not see what he was doing.
“Ok, ok. I’m going to put the coats in anda bedroom while anda cook. Seems like those two out there have hit it off really well.”
Cuddy went back to the living room, which took a total of two steps, grabbed the coats and proceeded to House’s bedroom. Surprisingly to her, the bedroom was very tidy and clean. She let the two coats on bahagian, atas of the katil and noticed a box on the floor. It was a dark wooden box and it kept calling to Cuddy. She grabbed the box, sat on the katil and opened it carefully. There was a mix of expressions on her face. She smiled softly in surprise.
House had finished his contribution to the makan malam, majlis makan malam and told Wilson and Erin to set the table.
Cuddy was taking long in his bedroom, he noticed. He opened the door slowly and silently. Cuddy was sitting on the katil with something in her hands.
“Hey. What’re anda doing?” House asked slowly, still near the door.
Cuddy jumped, closed the box and looked back at House.
“Nothing. Is makan malam, majlis makan malam ready?“ Cuddy answered him with a hand-caught-in-the-cookie-jar smile.
“It is. anda saw the box?” House asked, sure she would understand him.
“Yes, I did. Sorry about that, I’m invading your privacy I know.” Cuddy berkata embarrassed. She got up and went to pass sejak House. He instantly reacted, grabbing her hand before she could go sejak him. Their eyes met.
“Bring the box. They are just photos.” House berkata breaking the moment.
As Cuddy turned around to pick up the box, House left the room. She took it to the living room and put it on the couch. Wilson and Erin were already in their seats. Cuddy sat and waited for House to bring in the so called surprised.
It was a great dinner, Italian pasta and red wine. They were surprised sejak the unknown chef that House was. He brought out ice cream with Chocolate toppings for dessert.
They were laughing and actually having fun. Erin helped Wilson take the dishes to the dapur and clean the table. Cuddy was in the bathroom, and House sat on the sofa, kerusi panjang with the box on his lap.
When Wilson and Erin came back they sat near each other on the couch, he smiled and looked at the box. They were intrigued sejak his smile… and that box. Cuddy finally got to the living room, and found three people looking at one thing. She walked slowly, and each step closer to the box she could decipher the figures on the foto-foto better.
Wilson picked up one in particular.
“Oh, my God! This was a long time ago. I remember this day.” He berkata smiling at the photo.
“Let me see it” Erin berkata taking the photograph from Wilson’s hands.
“It was in college. I remember perfectly.” House berkata softly, now looking at Cuddy.
“This is you!” Erin berkata almost shocked pointing to Cuddy and then to a younger Cuddy on the photo.
“I Cinta this one. Why can’t I remember going to Seattle when it was snowing? Aww…. Look at all the snow!” Wilson berkata with a sweet look in his eyes.
“That’s because anda weren’t there.” Cuddy finally spoke, softly, looking at House.
“Why are anda two the only persons on the photos? Didn’t we go to Seattle for a school trip?” Wilson asked, narrowing his eyebrows at House and then Cuddy.
After a few saat they broke eye contact and were silent. He spoke with a bit of sweetness on his voice. “We did. But these foto-foto are from a different trip. We went to Seattle on that school trip anda went to Jimmy. But we came back there, a few months after.” Wilson was a little confused sejak this.
Erin had understood everything and kept looking at the amount of photographs that were in the box. House kept looking at Cuddy, and she returned the look. blue eyes were locked into those other blue-gray ones.
House picked one up and gave it to Cuddy, who still standing. She looked at the foto and smiled. She was younger, had a hat covering her black curls and earmuffs. sejak her side, Gregory House… his arm was around her. Both had a big smile on their faces. Behind them it was snowing and everything was covered in a beautiful white blanket. She continued to look at the photo, remembering how it had all happened.
