Roline was flabbergasted, she didn"t know what to say back. "since tissues aren"t here and you played their part well, you should be my cover too. these covers are too cold. Roline said looking at the man busing himself.
the two seemed fine but there was something that Roline didn"t understand.
first, An kai showed no intention of doing anything beyond kissing. when he had mentioned taking her somewhere, Roline thought that maybe he might be scared to do anything in her father"s house but thinking through everything now, Roline concluded that An kai was avoiding any furthered business apart from kissing. she had not voiced her thoughts yet.
An kai kept doing his own things and later headed into the bathroom.
looking at himself in the mirror he thought." I can read what your thinking Roline but somethings are signs of bad luck. I can see that your happy this way so their is no need to go beyond our lips.
your lips content me as long as we"re to stay like this.
An kai sat under the shower with no intention of going out. he through everything that happened in the past month. a month that changed almost everything in him.
from the day Roline received the gift of a ring An kai bought her, she changed drastically.
Kai kept calling and texting her daily thinking that Roline will change her mind about her plans of divorcing him but one day in Tria proved him wrong.
Ami had gone to apologize for not being a good friend to An kai but Roline ended up calling her when she was still at An kai"s apartment.
"if you really want me to forgive you, and if you"re really sorry about what you did. put that call on loud speaker and you don"t need to tell her that you came here to see me. An kai said to Ami when he was in Tria.
Ami was an easy person to blackmail so she agreed and put the call on loud.
"Ami, have you listed the places we"re going into? Linda called me yesterday saying she has planned our first tours to be in Asia and later we shall head down to Africa.
I haven"t thought of anything since I still have to get him to give me his signature. be planning out everything as I plan everything out here as well. do you get what am saying? why aren"t you answering Ami? Roline spoke from the other side of the phone. Ami was only able to answer with "I understand, before she hung up the phone and looked back to An kai.
can we be friends again? I was only helping Roline as I have helped you.
An, I might sound unreachable to you but what you should do is let us be. we planned this for so many years, we can"t let our patience pay us with compromises. we"re not going to compromise for anything if it comes to our dreams. after which, Ami stood up and left. she never showed up at his place from that day on.
as for Roline, she kept talking and texting An kai as usual. An kai chose to come back without informing anyone because he wanted to see how Roline would react.
according to An kai, Roline was happy to see him, even the way they have been living in Roline"s house was not a pretence. she was truly happy. happy to see him obeying her without complaining. she was happy when when ever they kept paying their kiss bills but,
what if Roline wakes up one day and leave me all alone. what if am not able to convince her to stay with me, what shall I do when that time comes? An kai stayed under the shower for almost 3 hours but those questions kept flowing in his mind. he came out only to see Roline in deep sleep. she looked to be peaceful.
"I brought here hoping to relieve my care free life style but I can"t, it seems you"re care free than the An kai who used to sleep in this bed seven months ago. the An kai you made is in unspeakable pain and fear.
I wish I never met you, maybe your life would be better than the way it is now. An kai stood in one place as he looked at the woman sleeping on the bed.
my body says I should grab and press you down. as for my brain, it says I shouldn"t, that night became the root cause of all the fear and sadness crippling up in me, but my heart says that it needs you. it needs you to be just near here. where it can feel you and that"s enough. if we can stay like this for the rest our lives, the rest won"t matter a lot.
I will be able to smile after seeing your smile. I just want to take care of your every need. Kai thought as he looked at the long night. time was running really slow. he sat down and got his phone, opened the messages that they texted each other when he was still in Tria.
he used not to sleep. he would pretend to revise in the middle of the night because he didn"t want to think so much about his future.
getting to Roriland with a tired expression wasn"t a result of examination pressure but rather, a full month of sleepless nights.
