Chapter 20
He couldn’t help but laugh as he held his stomach. I just stared at him. If he was always like this more women would fall for him. “You’re here, T. H,” Latrelle said with a smirk. I was surprised to see him in front of me. He smiled once and winked at me; I almost shivered because I didn’t like that.
“Oh, don’t you want that handsome guy winked at you?” he laughed out loud. I just smirked at what he said.
“Kind of gross”, I whispered.
“I’m fixing a car. How about you?” said T. H when he could return to sanity.
“It’s also repairing. The tire exploded and I got caught here”, Latrelle answered. T. H just nodded at what he said because the mechanic called him. I followed T. H so that Latrelle wouldn’t tease me.
“What?”
“You have a fault in me”, he said in a demonic tone.
“What? I don’t understand you!”, I yelled.
His face was serious as he smirked. I can’t figure out if he’s just doing it in front of me. Her black eyes were boldly staring at me.
“Marcus said to me that I’ll fetch you and then T. H was with you”
“What’s the big deal here? I hope you asked, didn’t you?” my eyes turn around. I would have left him but suddenly he pulled me close to him. He brought his face closer to mine. So, my eyes widened. My knee was also sore. If he was this close to me, I would feel like I would run out of breath. He came even closer to me as I struggled. He tightened the grip on both my arms. He turned to my ear. My hair rose as his baritone voice came out of his mouth.
“Just a moment, Kaoree” Just a moment. Nothing bad but the smell of his expensive perfume carries me. We stayed in that position for a few seconds until he released me voluntarily. He pushed me and he shook my hands. It was as if I had defiled him. He’s always pissing me off!
“Why are you sticking to me? Are you smitten!”
“Wow? Smitten to you? No!”, he pleaded” Someone just passed by who I know”, he added.
“Ah. You’re hiding something! Wait! Who is that?”
I peeked to the right side of the road where he was looking. “Kaoree, Stop!” He was irritated so I stopped peeking. T. H came back so Latrelle and I acted normally as if nothing had happened.
“Let’s go”, he said to me. I followed and left Latrelle there with his face covered like a crumpled paper. When we got home, I found Wyn cooking. He turned his back while wearing an apron. It was obvious how wide his arm was. I slowly lowered myself to the table. He didn’t pay attention to my presence so that’s what I was thinking. Maybe in the future, he will be like this when he becomes my husband.
I couldn’t help but smile broadly because of my ambition.
“You’re here”, he said in a glad tone.
I was surprised when he suddenly turned his attention to me so I pretended to scratch my chin. Pretending that I was not staring at him at that moment.
“My chin is itching”, I said while faking a scratch on it using my fingers. Luckily, he wasn’t malicious so I wasn’t obviously fantasizing about him. If he is going to be my husband, it will be like I hit the lottery jackpot.
“May I see”, Wyn said innocently. I stood up before he could do anything as I was about to cook.
“I’ll take care of this, Wyn!”
“No, let me do it.” He said and I tried to grab the spoon from him but he wouldn’t let go. He smiled when I tried to snatch it from him. Another smile of this on Wyn and I will kiss him just the way he really is.
“My eye hurts!” said my attitude friend. Who else? It’s Jez who looks like she just arrived from the photoshoot. Her eyeliner and lipstick are scattered.
“Girl, are you okay? You look like you slapped the horse”, I asked her while examining her face that looked stressed and if someone drew on it.
She grabbed her chest. “You’re exaggerating!”
“Oh, I’m going to go to my room now.” She said after drinking the water. Wyn and I only cooked for a while because it was just Menudo. As usual, we watched TV before bed. T. H was in his room when he called me to make milk. He’s watched Harry Potter a few times but he still doesn’t seem to get tired. He hugged his knees while concentrating on watching. I could feel the weight of his breathing due to the rise and fall of his shoulder.
“Why haven’t you come out yet?”
“Wait. Can you see? I’m busy watching”, he said arrogantly.
“Ah. Of course. Sorry,” I quickly closed the door and ran down the stairs. Until…
“Ouch!” Latrelle and I spoke together. My nose bumped to his forehead and it really hurts. I thought my nose was going to bleed.
“Why aren’t you looking down on your way?” I said in a furious tone. I could see in the small mirror hanging on the wall the redness of my nose.
“I’m looking at the stairs. You’re not looking. I think you’re looking at my handsome face so you bumped into me”, he boasted. He was even airier than the electric fan in the living room.
I just ignored him. I went back to watching as he in turn climbed into the bedroom. No one noticed that I sided with Wyn. They laughed while watching Waikiki.
“Can I sit beside, Wyn ” He doesn’t object so I feel like I’m shivering.
I didn’t understand the show because for two hours I was just watching his angel face. Until I didn’t realize I was asleep. “Pst …”
“What!”, I said angrily.
“Pst ..”
I slap the hand poking his head.
“You, see? I’m sleeping!”, I said.
“The show is over. You might want to sleep in your room”, said Latrelle in a whispering tone.
I turned to get up so I almost dropped off the sofa. I noticed that the three people who were with me did not wake me up.
“What are you doing here and you keep disturbing me during my sleep?”, I asked him while stretching my back.
“I’m just concerned that you’re here. Go to your room and get some sleep”.
Gradually my eyes turned to the other sofa. I saw Wyn’s sleeping there.
He rubbed his eyes. “Let’s go, Kaoree. I’ve been waiting for you to wake up but I also fell asleep”; he laughed a little as I watched his white teeth. I heard the song of the angel in heaven. I shouted in my mind because he was waiting for me.
“Do you have a crush on Wyn?”, The gossipy Latrelle asked.
“No!”C0ntent © 2024 (N/ô)velDrama.Org.
“He will not like you! Cause he is not suited to you” he whispered. I stared at the glass of milk he was holding. It was as if I wanted to throw it in his face, maybe I could just take it away.
“He will like me! I’m fit for him to be his girlfriend”, I said confidently.
“Wyn will date you. But I’ll be one who matches perfectly to you”.
My feet were nailed to the ground. I seemed to be blown away by what he said.
His strength! Maybe he’s just teasing me.
Gosh! Latrelle! You are really annoying!
