"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.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJTjnwmu7vn
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB7aVUvMJ0Z
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFczm1Zd4HS
My words must've knocked his bolts out 'cause he stopped in his actions, peeking from my throat to look at me. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKv71AymEYm
1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWSfPZdUZV8
When he saw the expression on my face, he realized what he did, and almost instantly, his face was filled with guilt and remorse.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmQWms5Zs4I
He backed out from me hurriedly, sitting on the other side of bed, raking his fingers across his slighly disheveld hairs.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt6qPqGDRPU
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexFieFyCMg
Inside, I was burning with desire sadness and agony. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRhV8GEv9GO
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQDU2N6XrPX
So it was only natural if he hyperventilated a little. We all do, sometimes. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfEjxqANyuY
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgxIobch3tC
That he wasn't as thrilled and excited to go on a date with Kiara as much as I thought he was. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQUNdaeYEA
Or that he might possibly didn't like Kiara that much after all. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhloYnWYgGk
Or he might actually return my..1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡevrJHP1NiN
"I didn't mean to throw myself at you, Scarlett. I suppose I'm just desperate, that's all."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt8tjhMaJtY
Or he might actually not. Never. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA8XFtKG6R3
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ20MJgD4rGg
Slowly I sat on the other side of the bed, my head hung low in realisation. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz22NcOJvA6
"I'm sorry, Scarlett-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyyRmu3UIc
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyU8aFwEhYj
And as if on a cue, the doorbell to his apartment rang and I silently made my way to the hall to answer it. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jIPQ34Xef
"Kiara."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1G3K0uVFMH
"Hey Hazel!"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8rYgpWKBJ0
Kiara hugged me tightly, crushing few of my ribs in the process, and I stepped to the side to let her inside. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ1IPC5vAIH
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmKD33uX4hA
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxtpg6Ct3HO
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi5xRICyFTG
Putting aside the usual waves of sadness, that passed through my chest1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlDFagb8pWg
1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtDuCq94nP5
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQZzVewAao3
'Cause Kiara didn't do date in her casual clothes. She was too modest for that. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDHUgyiK5s0
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3zgFXianpW
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 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlCf7KKpMuO
1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmyMhczQrJu
bought shoes, as a decoration. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmNC3xsGHo
"Tell him I'm not coming home anytime soon."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI7PcZCVE17
"Okay, but be prepared with some better excuse next time. This time I'm letting you borrow mine." She said, nonchalantly. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpMVo02xIXA
"What's your excuse?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRISfSlVMTu
"That you aren't coming home?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1ylAwpH7d
"Where's the excuse in there?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMDm6cXDcQ
"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?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJhQaWzOVro
I grinned at her. "You have grown to be a very smart lady, Kiara."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLswv3FqBSj
"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-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkuHd0MbAjO
"Enough of your bullshits, Kiara. Get out now-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPQlpAXUj7
"Okay! Okay! I'm going! You're no fun, sis. But in an hour we're meeting so you can't actually-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP34J8c18SZ
"Do you want be slapped by a turnip?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfzLht0Euha
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡve33GxDY60
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKu8yuUCpJh
"Some innocent younger sister you're supposed to be."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9LNTKqtDDI
I didn't reply to his almost annoying statement. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKUx9vpFZU
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡopYgDIqTni
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyUF0RWR6sC
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9gqUGN3COp
But Heath was also year or two older than me, so that chalks up his age almost similar to that of Kiara's. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUJGyHdP6Nb
They even had matching birthyears, never mind the birthdays. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmWc3HattDV
Perfect couple, they would make, I enchanted in my brain. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFMYl7fbg6W
"Let's get you ready." I told him and walked to his room, busying myself with readying his attire. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4xxLOoA9KI
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY2IfARf3h4
1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPyKhEOB5wJ
Straightening out his dark blue tux, I slung it close to his broad shoulders, which he slid easily up his arms. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRuMWIpBKkT
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2iZ7GO9SBp
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqJ251AsXD
"This one looks much better. Tie it around-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37QvggsZi7
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqDxRO6WWdI
Nodding, I raised my arms and wrapped my hands around his collar, adjusting the tie and tried to tie it strangely with struggle. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3cnPizO4vm
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh26jYKwdHJ
His chest rumbled with his laugh, and I gulped looking at his half exposed chest in front of my eyes. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5jH76Q2KA9
Untying it as respectably as possible, I tried to tie it again, but failed nevertheless. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxijXYW0Tbr
I remembered doing it with much ease with my father's tie, when he prepared to go to his office. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdh4WonLd5m
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDE6905EkV
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFD1E66iDx5
"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.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSjAeGMPUT
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2O3yXgUiNr
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZokXkiGL81
"Yeah. I never knew Kiara's favorite color was blue. Thanks for filling it in time for me."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJd2m8KZVem
"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-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5AsoZL1sH
"Where the blue fits in there then?" He asked, with the hint of annoyance and worry, in his deep voice. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrpiSIumHrw
I pretended to think like some good old scholar but ended up looking like some jarred granny instead. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBfwFPzHBx3
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIxio7hBc2F
"Seriously, Scarlett? That's your reason for making me wear blue on my first date-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPmIej8JEt5
"I told you it's looking good. Sexy as hell! Kiara will never dream of another man again-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡApAagZZWgG
"And you don't think it's your favorite color?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEv4Uz4yFRA
I pretended to fake gasp, but seeing his serious expression, I sighed in defeat and crossed my arms across my breasts. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBp0pjxLPLR
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu4LHRtxW8Z
"She's cute in her own way."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Hb2kbOQcs
"She takes after me."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJOAAiiq9c
"Yeah? Just as you take after your madness?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtcz4gYCAQS
"That was a nice attempt at making a complete fool out of yourself."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh683YUraQs
"Admit your defeat already, Scarlett." He chuckled.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoTQe7O7ye
"Hah. You think I'm not like Kiara?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq0WFE8oIrh
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyohHfet11M
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo1YCQ676ti
"Stop it. I'm getting nausea here." 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE0uvWJ1zSl
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5h9Op5FFX
"I already threw up twice when you were kicking your sister out of my apartment."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡidCn2blIS8
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8lW8QJkjT
"Yes! Your cologne-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9Kci3TSomo
"Check."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYNSfzEKBSe
"Your wallet?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsrTuLs38BG
"In my car. Check."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡt5LhPaERXD
"Your other wallet?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTzFqBJLuYA
"Inside my back pocket. Check."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5QkC99rpN
"Do you happen to have a third one for emergencies?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡScJcNAtRAX
"I'm not eloping with my lover, Scarlett."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEGw4uxiToo
"Yeah! Your wristwatch?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEl2sWXFM1T
He showed me his hand, and I nodded. "Check."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm2AQ5sUvHA
Looking at the clock, my eyes widened in alarm. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfJfDkrC8EV
Only half an hour left till his reserved date at some fancy restaurant I didn't have the brains to remember name of. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7BSoMRKthz
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsbespfAbj0
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEpgj1Mv2z
"You look fine, Heath." I encouraged him. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEuC3Kme1Zg
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMacZFZWlOM
"Scarlett-" He looked at me, touched with my efforts. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡof1ZaTtswA
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJ5IlzlAno
"Keep your chin high." I put my fingers under his jawline and raised his head a little to face forward.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsvRUnOu58P
"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?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ49vyfFRgBu
I gauged his reaction and he seemed to be following what I was trying to say.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUHnoL84AIL
"Smile and wave it all off." I repeated. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvuMx72aNll
"Smile and wave it all off." He repeated with me and tried to smile his best way. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ701xTZtkRa
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-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡemh9a5zxGz
"I don't wear panties-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyLizPkoyFf
"Either way, you're doing it all wrong. Smile." I looked at him with determination and perseverance."Again."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgqWyf7L8P5
And he did. But failed yet again.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI9OVhi3mbY
"Honestly, Heath. You really need to sweat it all out-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhoNKxOUCNi
"You know I've never been to a date before, Scarlett."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxcTNj1kVK
"_"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf9eoSPFJBU
"I thought I should remind you this is my first time..." He trailed off, seeing the blank reaction on my face. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2Q8DLYKepW
"_"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk6H0CODdy5
"Okay, okay I'm smiling goddammit! See? I am smiling. Happy?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjKYZBjT07
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfhNroEnPIQ
He sighed in defeat. "I think it's gonna end in disaster-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYq0VwgQ7hn
"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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpgGt23mLu0
"I will try to make the best out of it."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNWXcmEncL
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8SMEor6Oeb
"Feel comfortable? But she's not you, Scarlett. How can I-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTFomYB6wth
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?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRIba1b0eN
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyXNiwWDO3G
Heath looked at me in daze, something suddenly twinkling in his eye, and I found I didn't want to know what it was. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGC1ZQhzmu9
"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.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjX6iCOSfuL
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgT6I9Ft57N
"I think you should go for now, Heath. Unless you want to end up picking up your first date late, that is."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs1qBGgyeip
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEZ2jDTmt7
"You don't look much happy with my date, I see."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqwoei9Gu6
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-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsM15EFqMQq
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡakEyRMHl7W
I froze in my place. "Who says-"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkhVhUOXWUq
"Hazel."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ZHps8yZcF
I looked at anywhere but him. "Are you not happy with me going on a date with your sister?"1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHI035IkPkR
"Who cares if I am happy or not?" As long as you are happy, I am happy, I thought to myself. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWh6QaFnvjL
"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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqbkHGyQ1vU
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."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpTMFeEIgpJ
"You're not a stranger." I mumbled under my breath. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2M94hBSTB0
"Just as you're not just any employee."1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDFTp3lg1ow
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZfqfPi7KfZ
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.1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7soztiXcjp
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. 1022Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9YS8OOCdeu
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.
