Just Cope with His Rude Manners

A popular skill that is becoming a trend among showbiz personalities is taking cooking lessons under renowned chefs of the country. While others enroll in classes as a hobby, others are intent on making use of their new skill as a means of augmenting their income. Regardless of reason, the celebrity-student gains beneficial skills.

Cooking could be driven by passion, by love for eating, and desire to feed people. Regardless of the reason, people close to the celebrity-student benefit from these classes as taste-testers, of course.

Skilled Celebrity (SC) wanted to practice what she has been learning from her cooking courses and thus invited her friends to test her dishes. The friends enjoyed her cooking and Her Partner (HP) appreciated the good food and the company. SC realized that other than acting, cooking was to become her passion, and thus, she continued to invite friends to her home, as she has been practicing cooking in bulk. As usual, the friends loved her dishes and their comments validated what SC knew all along, that is, she could have another career as a chef.

Hence, the invitations became frequent. One night, HP came home tired from fulfilling his countless responsibilities and was surprised that there seemed to be a party. The house was brightly lit and people were moving inside the house. Instead of being able to laze around and relax the moment he entered, HP knew that he had to socialize with the friends who were obviously invited by SC. Thus, HP did the unthinkable. Rather than exchange pleasantries with the guests, HP gave them the cold shoulder and ignored their presence. Worse, the guests felt his tantrum and his child-like behavior. HP was displeased at them and said a mouthful. The friends were caught off guard and hurt by his words. Politely, the guests left the house of SC and HP.

As soon as the last guest left, SC confronted HP. SC could not understand why HP had to be rude in front of her friends. SC said that she invited them over and thus, as a host, they should not disrespect guests. HP would not hear of it and their confrontation continued.

After a while, SC and HP patched up things, but the friends refused to step in their house despite the new invitation. SC, of course, could not just leave her friends, as they form the limited social circle she could accommodate given her busy schedule and public persona. Lucky for her, her friends understood where she stood. Hence, whenever she wants to cook for her friends, SC packs up her cooking gear and brings them over to a friend’s home, where she and her pals could enjoy her cooking without thinking of the rude behavior of HP.

‘It's a rather rude gesture, but at least it's clear what you mean.’ – Katharine Hepburn
