"Don't trust just anyone blindly, Heath. You know not everyone wants your best.." I sighed in pleasure as his lips peppered kisses on my exposed throat, but remembering that he had a date with my sister tonight, almost immediately I pushed him aside roughly, his balance swaying for a minute before he hovered once again at me, this time keeping his right hand firmly on my chin, tilting my head to my side.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIFPzoR8Qrm
Once again, his lips found my neck, this time pressing wet kisses across my throbbing pulse. I gripped the bedsheets tightly with my hands, my fingernails pushing against each other, my eyes closing almost involuntarily at his ministrations. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm0jCJ6auUL
His fingers stroked my cheek, rubbing his thumb pad lazily over my skin, light friction causing me to whimper in response. "If you think doing this will get you Kiara, then you're wrong, Heath. She'll hate it the moment you become dominating with her."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5ZSNwVVNO
My words must've knocked his bolts out 'cause he stopped in his actions, peeking from my throat to look at me. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUxqts8B6E
957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaHTbC8KKrC
When he saw the expression on my face, he realized what he did, and almost instantly, his face was filled with guilt and remorse.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl6YeDTIUzF
He backed out from me hurriedly, sitting on the other side of bed, raking his fingers across his slighly disheveld hairs.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3hpOGxRQF
Blinking several times to sort out his confusion of what had actually come over him to make him do something like that, he looked hesitantly at me to see if he did any harm to me, and when he did look at me, I smiled a bit to ease his discomfort. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm6KTDZFfWX
Inside, I was burning with desire sadness and agony. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCZNUO8t7rl
It happens sometimes, I supposed, due to nervousness and pressure of doing something for the first time. It wasn't like he went on dates every other day, with every other women of his choice. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwzYny6WobF
So it was only natural if he hyperventilated a little. We all do, sometimes. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt03JvtzMwj
Or atleast, that's what I tried to think to convince my stubborn self who was selfishly weaving some impossible reasons for his unjustifiable actions just minutes ago. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjO8vZHYDtr
That he wasn't as thrilled and excited to go on a date with Kiara as much as I thought he was. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYD77ZmkVt
Or that he might possibly didn't like Kiara that much after all. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8ahCTwhh7K
Or he might actually return my..957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxk4XHaeB72
"I didn't mean to throw myself at you, Scarlett. I suppose I'm just desperate, that's all."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2AuHdkJCco
Or he might actually not. Never. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfS5LIMvDW
When I didn't reply to his statement, which I wasn't supposed to, he turned around fully to look at me and I slowly made my way back to reality, where wanting things was too much of a burden and ignoring them was an equally advisable solution to all the troubles. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5HSlkQLogk
Slowly I sat on the other side of the bed, my head hung low in realisation. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXDe0SsFj59
"I'm sorry, Scarlett-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOZI18Tt9k
"I know. It's just the alcohol speaking." I smiled at him. "And doing." I reasoned for him, knowing if he did it himself, he won't be able to reason for both of us. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0433wcjpSw
And as if on a cue, the doorbell to his apartment rang and I silently made my way to the hall to answer it. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMqCMurkUY
"Kiara."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtzKDizdml
"Hey Hazel!"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxaNyLk9Zyi
Kiara hugged me tightly, crushing few of my ribs in the process, and I stepped to the side to let her inside. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTU2ozVO1g4
She made her way to his apartment, her eyes glistening with mischief as she stood on the carpet floor and after making futile attempts to find, I presume Heath, she pouted adorably and turned towards me. "Where's he? I had been waiting for an hour, hoping he'd come on time to pick me up from home."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zQBrOUmwz
I rolled my eyes at her lie. It wasn't even eight yet. She'd been too excited to meet with her date, as always was the case with her, with her other dates. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKc0xJs821
She gets carried away easily. I crossed my arms in front of my chest, half glaring at her in amusement when she raised her hands in defense."Okay, I lied. No surprise there. I just couldn't wait to be with Heath tonight."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kimGcBmv8
Putting aside the usual waves of sadness, that passed through my chest957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ83p7dnYlN
957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7SrEtJM7Bx
after hearing her bold words, I again half-glared at her, knowing she had more to the truth, than what she'd been feeding me. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCtWk6Wo2Ly
'Cause Kiara didn't do date in her casual clothes. She was too modest for that. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlIL1tVDgKD
"Okay, actually Father wanted to see you so I searched your apartment, probably ended up eating half of your bite-sized sandwich, and yes, those almonds have to be imported stuff I'm telling ya with all those crunchiness and I liked the new shoes you'd been hiding inside your bed. That's it."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WfU2F5YaR
Oh, so that's how she ended up searching the whole apartment for me, 'cause she actually thought I had the peanut sized brain cells to actually hide inside my bed, beside my newly 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUCgX7jnkqH
957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDKAtYrPLMa
bought shoes, as a decoration. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavMvuk7jL3
"Tell him I'm not coming home anytime soon."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWW6CSuBjc
"Okay, but be prepared with some better excuse next time. This time I'm letting you borrow mine." She said, nonchalantly. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrvS93fQO00
"What's your excuse?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC8DMetLzjZ
"That you aren't coming home?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKmmqWC4fL5
"Where's the excuse in there?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSjns3YSch0
"I'm sure Father will conjure up some satisfactory excuses to convince himself of his defeat in your words, since he knows you won't admit defeat anytime soon?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAbRb9XDfaS
I grinned at her. "You have grown to be a very smart lady, Kiara."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOOsWG00O0
"That's why I tell you to follow me on Instagram. But honestly, where's he? I don't see him in the kitchen? Are you sure he isn't rotting in some stray corner of his own house, being eaten by rodents-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWNEuqqIPd
"Enough of your bullshits, Kiara. Get out now-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrfZRVb8wEa
"Okay! Okay! I'm going! You're no fun, sis. But in an hour we're meeting so you can't actually-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1hYPe1izvr
"Do you want be slapped by a turnip?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4dEQOEbh4U
"I'd rather have bundles of spinach. I'm not-" I pushed her outside the door, closed it with a loud shut on her face but not before shouting "Kiss some random guy on the street and I swear I'll take you to the salon to have all your hairs tailored out of your skull." with her loud response of "I dare you won't."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlMp5Kg23kA
Rubbing my temples in sheer stress, I made my way to Heath's room only to find him leaning against the door of his room, his left leg against the wooden frame. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QhAysTJ56
"Some innocent younger sister you're supposed to be."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5PFz7K8HiQ
I didn't reply to his almost annoying statement. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroYeokP5zd
Yes, Kiara was a year older than me. Or perhaps two, I didn't quite remember the year name of her birth, when my mother married her father. After all, the marriage didn't occur with my approval. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxpuD0cD7uz
I was straightway against it. So against the ceremonial bond I was that I didn't go to my new home for a month to show my hostility towards my mother. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3qonREPLU
I was so sure of supporting me and my mother that I didn't spare a glance at her new husband, and much to his annoyance, landed myself a job at one of the most renowned companies of New York. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mgywxEF9p
But Heath was also year or two older than me, so that chalks up his age almost similar to that of Kiara's. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJ7aTyBeIa
They even had matching birthyears, never mind the birthdays. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMnr15dOJno
Perfect couple, they would make, I enchanted in my brain. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv3DlgHG5R6
"Let's get you ready." I told him and walked to his room, busying myself with readying his attire. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojAEd86RH1
After minutes of efforts, he emerged out as fresh as ever, white shirt constricting against his hard features, pitch black necktie hanging loose around his open collar, which he took the liberty to tie deftly with his smooth calloused long fingers. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmxQEGMELWT
957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkmZu0VDg37
Straightening out his dark blue tux, I slung it close to his broad shoulders, which he slid easily up his arms. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4AfWsh2oxi
"Do you think this looks okay?" He asked, having suddenly decided to value my opinion about his appearance, and I narrowed my eyes seeing him actually wear black-tie with blue tux. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcwzwTB9lY
Sighing, I moved forward, untied his tie, pulled it from around his collar, and after rummaging his closet for good four minutes, handed him the decent looking matching necktie. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV4jxlSAFw
"This one looks much better. Tie it around-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2caKJRWml
"But the black one I was wearing earlier actually came with the tux." He protested and I took it in myself to do the task for him. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWhvkFM7SOa
Nodding, I raised my arms and wrapped my hands around his collar, adjusting the tie and tried to tie it strangely with struggle. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9ZHhgUhqhL
My eyes narrowed when the ends of the tie got entangled with my fingers and I cursed softly under my breath hearing Heath chuckle at my predicament. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6jmB0hoMAG
His chest rumbled with his laugh, and I gulped looking at his half exposed chest in front of my eyes. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwTAMBmSgx
Untying it as respectably as possible, I tried to tie it again, but failed nevertheless. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy0Uyh56SYt
I remembered doing it with much ease with my father's tie, when he prepared to go to his office. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbhkz1uRF5
But considering it's been almost twenty-one years since that event, I decided it was only plausible that I didn't verse in this talent anymore. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRcKkExsnL4
"Here." Heath put his hand over mine, clutching my fingers with his thumb and forefinger and directed me to his collar again, reopening the dislodged knot. "Do it like this." Fully grabbing my fingers now, he moved them over his, knotting the tie in perfectness but in the midst of the ordeal, I found myself staring at his handsome features instead. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjGOrZwum7g
"And when you fold and slide this last piece over this hanging one." He looked at me to see if I was looking and coughed a little to show his presence.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUfdqgfPVa4
I flushed in embarassment for slacking off in middle of such an important tutorial. He gripped my forefinger with his thumb, slid the last piece of cloth over the other hanging one and left my hand to let me do the rest. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLUSABIqQ2O
Nodding to myself, I pressed my lips in thin line and pulled the cloth down, earning myself the perfect knot ever and immediately, tiny smile made its way to my sombre face. "It's perfect." I said, dusting the imaginary dust on his collar and licked my lips in nervousness to look up at him. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPANQJ19NP
"Yeah. I never knew Kiara's favorite color was blue. Thanks for filling it in time for me."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvWCjKrj46G
"Her favourite color are many, to be honest. Red, black, orange, yellow, white, purple, pink, sunny yellow, lemony yellow, sunflowery yellow, cauliflowery-yellow, candy-yellow-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6df0xjdrFT
"Where the blue fits in there then?" He asked, with the hint of annoyance and worry, in his deep voice. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbrKpGRCcuv
I pretended to think like some good old scholar but ended up looking like some jarred granny instead. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNyBnb3rMp8
"She always has some shades of blue in her usual clothes, that's where I decided from that she must've this indescribably unknowingly obsession with the blue color and honestly, if you ask me, it's actually very sexy, in my opinion." I chirped at him when he stopped doing his hair and looked at me incredulously. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEh3jFbEpbS
"Seriously, Scarlett? That's your reason for making me wear blue on my first date-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qJe7dcSZr
"I told you it's looking good. Sexy as hell! Kiara will never dream of another man again-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡioKsuIam1j
"And you don't think it's your favorite color?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMKFdXwFl7
I pretended to fake gasp, but seeing his serious expression, I sighed in defeat and crossed my arms across my breasts. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBRBOUHQs3G
"You worry too much, Heath. My sister is a fickle creature. And strangely gullible as well." I adjusted his handkerchief in his front pocket and pushed it slightly down before looking at him."Once I told her she was born out of bird shit as spores, she believed it almost readily as I fed her the lie. Sometimes I worry about my sister's sanity."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡisgadfKzlj
"She's cute in her own way."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX2wzzmiSFK
"She takes after me."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdXiGjuNQs
"Yeah? Just as you take after your madness?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3w818Tq6bd
"That was a nice attempt at making a complete fool out of yourself."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Lh1iJIGqJ
"Admit your defeat already, Scarlett." He chuckled.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBDluBwuJ5e
"Hah. You think I'm not like Kiara?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MG1hL7MRi
He scoffed at my words. "You two are polar opposites, I'm telling you. You're the Mercury and she's the Neptune of the solar system. You two are light years apart."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhTzJq5i6Nt
"Hey! You don't think I'm cute then?" I asked him, pushing my cheeks up with both of my hands, tilting my head to the side and pouting at him. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBR5c34OZL
"Stop it. I'm getting nausea here." 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1vhOhYd4pd
Regaining my usual self, I rolled my eyes. "Of course, you're getting nauseous. Some galleons of beer you swallowed is gonna come out sooner or later. It'll only be a miracle if you don't end up spraying that half-digested coal of beer over your napkin."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeiwJELg2EY
"I already threw up twice when you were kicking your sister out of my apartment."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡySyPNy6XGi
"That's for better. Now what else is left for you to be ready to depart, I wonder?" I put my forefinger on my lips, my eyes narrowing and searching for any thing I must have managed to miss. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkgqYic0VYs
"Yes! Your cologne-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM7kPUqwLpo
"Check."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwLwE61Bh0j
"Your wallet?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYmCZqFp34v
"In my car. Check."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDjBCQxE8zH
"Your other wallet?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNheXSuaT3F
"Inside my back pocket. Check."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBQKjkdhjRA
"Do you happen to have a third one for emergencies?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3YGHF1cXS
"I'm not eloping with my lover, Scarlett."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ooBkYWb9o
"Yeah! Your wristwatch?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsS7jAeYWyw
He showed me his hand, and I nodded. "Check."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOG47Ml2J5o
Looking at the clock, my eyes widened in alarm. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjkKilqKHK
Only half an hour left till his reserved date at some fancy restaurant I didn't have the brains to remember name of. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4qFaRfK1M7
"I think you're ready to go now. Hurry! It'll take you more than fifteen minutes to reach my home and pick Kiara. I wish she'd be ready by now, I swear sometimes she behaves like such a woman, in readying herself up for these dates."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm4LNuptcGW
Gently wrapping my arms around his own, I took him with me to the outside door where he once again checked at his reflection in the nearby kitchen rack mirror, in nervousness. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz3g1DKVeYg
"You look fine, Heath." I encouraged him. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCupflJjaYP
Nevertheless, he adjusted his tie again and I smiled at his immaturity. "Here." I shoved a bouquet of freshly plucked red roses on his hands, wrapped beautifuly in a thin cellophane, with its end tied neatly in another red ribbon knot. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN4XgY6tBTt
"Scarlett-" He looked at me, touched with my efforts. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSBKsrw1Ueh
"Yeah, roses are Scarlett but these I didn't buy for myself." I raised his arms to his pectoral level, making him take the bouquet like a gentleman and dusted the stray imaginary leaves away from the roses. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3gQFX44vSh
"Keep your chin high." I put my fingers under his jawline and raised his head a little to face forward.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCugXQz7BK
"Imagine you're in your conference room, meeting your new dealers and employees and all you have to do is smile and wave it all off. Okay?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOdrstySKn
I gauged his reaction and he seemed to be following what I was trying to say.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLCX2csoqMz
"Smile and wave it all off." I repeated. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwIXjcbwGl9
"Smile and wave it all off." He repeated with me and tried to smile his best way. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX7FyS8w5TU
Unfortunately, it didn't come as satisfactorily as it did when he was doing it naturally. "You've to smile, Heath. Not frown. It's looking as if someone stole your panties on your first day to school-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb1CORsWvX2
"I don't wear panties-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWfygK07ZJ
"Either way, you're doing it all wrong. Smile." I looked at him with determination and perseverance."Again."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ13NvPdYbsL
And he did. But failed yet again.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsLRsgWB0r0
"Honestly, Heath. You really need to sweat it all out-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikYFDWW7Ii
"You know I've never been to a date before, Scarlett."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCrWhPQioWQ
"_"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMv95sAyCu9
"I thought I should remind you this is my first time..." He trailed off, seeing the blank reaction on my face. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0fQag7gRha
"_"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoRdDe8fXEn
"Okay, okay I'm smiling goddammit! See? I am smiling. Happy?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt14WI1zgHz
"You're looking as if you just ate the lizard's fat ass in your dinner." I glanced at his too-much-of-haunting-pressure-in-my-panties smiling face again. "And her eggs too, maybe, perhaps."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡizMtMziTHM
He sighed in defeat. "I think it's gonna end in disaster-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD88Ew1jtpE
"Heath! My sister is just an ordinary girl. She might have been born out of bird 's shit but she's far from being some angel, you know. She's as normal as a day and a night and you can just talk to her, casually, rudely, ok now maybe rudely, but nicely, cooly. Like a person. A male." I quirked my head to make my point clear. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnD74Cmp4b
"I will try to make the best out of it."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNMdLS4sU6S
"You've to. If you didn't, forget about ever having a better girl in future, as your wife, or as your life partner. She's the best you can have, think of it like this okay? All you have to do is sit comfortably by her side and be the partner of her chirpy talks, maybe participate in one or two, if you feel comfortable with her, that is."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnYQTipc5dI
"Feel comfortable? But she's not you, Scarlett. How can I-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfH1SJGUrcQ
I tried to ignore the sudden delicious skip of my heart at his words. "Would you rather have me as your date and dare I say, as your wife, then, Mr Evercrest?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM5PWUSGhkc
Immediately, I wanted to cover my mouth with my hands and take those words back in my mouth, but it was too late, I realised. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnM1C8qzHHh
Heath looked at me in daze, something suddenly twinkling in his eye, and I found I didn't want to know what it was. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm1ZctBQ0jc
"I have this wonderful idea, Scarlett. Why don't you join me in my date? It'd be comfortable to have you around my side and you can direct me from there..." And he babbled the rest like a parrot while I mentally face-palmed myself thinking this guy was the same male who howls like a wolf in his company, ordering his employees like some Greek God, walking with such authority on the floor that it starts burning behind his next steps.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ58T6ALleIi
There he would never speak a useless word unless someone died in front of him, or was on the verge of dying and here, he had fully transformed into a huge evolution of parrot desecedents. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7N4n2dijnC
"I think you should go for now, Heath. Unless you want to end up picking up your first date late, that is."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jd634SIi6
Surprisingly, he stopped babbling and looked at me. He scrutinized my body posture for some time and I fidgeted under his gaze, uncomfortably, swallowing the bile in my throat. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡukPkBBii4D
"You don't look much happy with my date, I see."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRQyR72P3ot
I mocked laugh at him. "I have perfectly fine relations with my sister, Heath. She can be salty as times but she is my sister-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRPUKIDP05
"I didn't mean with your sister, Scarlett." He took long strides and suddenly, he was standing in front of me. "I meant, with me going on a date."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡryIkHelHqB
I froze in my place. "Who says-"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi1PVVSLjwz
"Hazel."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdCqUUK2mv0
I looked at anywhere but him. "Are you not happy with me going on a date with your sister?"957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjKQ2k7D2Zz
"Who cares if I am happy or not?" As long as you are happy, I am happy, I thought to myself. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1PtOPFjhPr
"I do." He cupped my chin with his both hands. "If you're worried I'm not good enough for your sister, then you can always view your thoughts out aloud, Scarlett. I won't mind."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEhuhyXgQfn
When I didn't say anything and looked down, he smiled and ruffled my hairs. "Before being my employee, you're a sister to someone. Just as before being your trusted employer, I'm the stranger going on a date with your sister."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7vR6viBKZZ
"You're not a stranger." I mumbled under my breath. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjouKDSM2m
"Just as you're not just any employee."957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiMVjpy9Py
I heard him whisper before he left my side and before I could properly have a last look at him, he was gone from my view, the faint sound of door clicking shut as the sound of his departure. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo5J82DfOKF
I rushed to the windows, fumbling with the shutter to open them hurriedly and peeked my head outside to see him starting the car and driving in between the streets. I stood beside the window, looking at him, tears pooling at the corner of my eyes.957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5n6SnfOne
Unconsciously, my fingers brushed against the spot on my neck, where he had kissed earlier, feeling the wetness of his lips still on my skin and I closed my eyes in overwhelming emotions. 957Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgJcCe3xOM
Turning my gaze back on the road, I sighed loudly, seeing the faint blur of his car visible from the crowd, eventually disappearing later on among them.
