" okay.for the past month, Roline has been taking her baths during bedtime and later sit in front her mirror to apply her skin care products.
but An was becoming restless whenever he looked at her. she would loosen her bathrobe so that she can apply all around her neck, collarbone and her upper back.
at first, he thought that he was just nervous to look at her since it was his first time looking at woman.
later he started having dreams caressing her bare skin.
but what made the situation escalate, was Roline way of conduct.
she would move around sleepy in the morning
in her short night wear and she would come to wake him up thinking that he was still asleep. she preferred to shower first claiming that she had so many things to prepare for.
while An would be ready in minutes.
An was still getting used to her live-free life style when something else popped out.
one day in the middle of the night.
An woke up to use the bathroom, coming back in to bed afterwards only to find Roline"s top wear had moved away from her lower abdomen up to her chest. leaving half of her chest baring nothing except its pale skin.
An in a daze, his fingers started to move closer to her west but the abrupt movement by Roline to change positions made him stop in midair.
he stood up and went to the bathroom again. sprinkled some water on his face like trying to wash off what he had seen.
when he came back, he walked straight to the covers and covered her without letting his eyes to linger on her. and that is how he was able to fight that day on.
once a wake in the night, he would pull the covers and cover her without letting his eyes to settle on her. he would let them warder around the room until he made sure that her body was under the covers but it ended up being his daily activity.
Even Roline was wondering "where in the world did her bad sleeping habits go?
back when she used to sleep alone, she would wake up with all her covers down on the floor.
" am changed girl these days. hahaha, Roline cheered for herself!!
the next morning-
Roline went to bath first as usual. An kai went in after her but came back only to find that Roline had not finished wearing yet.
still in your rob?
"I don"t think I will be able to get to work today.
why?"
am not feeling well today. send me my phone if you don"t mind.
let me take you to the hospital if you aren"t feeling well. An said as he brought her phone from the mirror table to her hands.
" don"t worry about me, Ami will be here in a minute from now.
ohh, "you better let her come over than let me take you to the hospital? An asked in a voice mocking himself.
am I rilly that useless to you? he added.
" An, you shouldn"t be like this. somethings aren"t easily explained.
to me, but what about others?
" what "others" are you talking about?
Ami, who else?
why don"t we talk about this when you"re back?, go now or else you"ll be late for your cla.s.ses. Roline said calmly.
An picked up his phone and all other necessities and left without saying a word.
I don"t think he will let it pa.s.s this time. Roline Sighed inwardly looking at his back.
this time he was truly angered but to be exact, he was disappointed.
disappointed in Xia"s words. to love and make her part of his life.
the day was a total mess for him. he thought on how he has been all his life. he was used to that life where he lived for the seek of life.
" knowing nothing is better than knowing little instead of everything. he said to the person next to him.
are you in a bad mood?
"for now but don"t worry, it"s not that serious.
okay then.
An tried to talk to others so that he improves his language skills.
he was now familiar with the Triants twist of words.
he studied English as a business skill and now he was able to speak three different languages not leaving the fact that he was a quick learner.
school ended and he headed back home.
...
"you"re back. Roline said looking at the door way.
h.e.l.lo, An said looking at Ami while ignoring Roline"s words and walked up their bedroom.
under everyone"s gaze, he closed the bedroom door.
you better go and talk to him or else....
I know. Roline said before she stood up and left for their bedroom.
...
can we talk?
" I don"t owe you any explanation and don"t worry, I won"t be asking you anything from now on.
