Chapter 16
The towel tied around my head drops to the floor,I stay stunned not knowing how to react as always. I hear Dylan call out again which made me to push him behind, he lifts me down his lips still on mine. Bending low he runs his hand through my wet hair, and now I feel summersaults in my stomach , placing my palm on his broad shoulders I push him away I'm glad that he keeps a step behind and releases me from his heating touch.
He looks down at me his signature smirk makes its way on his lips while I look at him with my jaw dropped to the ground.
"You smell full of lavender,"he crunches up his nose and bends low " And I'm addicted to it," he whispers and walks to the kitchen while I stand there trying get to my senses back.
"Jerk," I screech aloud to get that through his ears and it did as I heard him chuckle.
Picking up my towel I walk out cursing him under my breath. How can he dominate myself where as my body doesn't listen to me it just reacts to him. I bite my lower lip when I remember what happened few moments ago,his misty smell is still in my nostrils.
"Anna,"I stop by Mr Han's doorway ,Dylan walking out of my house. I walk towards him with a smile.
"Damn..I was afraid,"he looks at me his expression surely shows that he was worried.
"Sorry," I apologize as my voice came out low as I feel guilty.
"You don't have to be," he states softly "You alright,you look pale," he asks ,raising his arm he places his palm over my forehead.
"I'm okay,just a flu," I brush off dramatically with a wide smile on my face.
" What's up," I ask him, because it's time for his work and he is here in the morning.
"I called you many times,there was no answer so I came to check out,"
"I'm not a kid," I cross my arms over chest and blow my nose.
" Sure you aren't, Lets have breakfast ,I bought them," He suggests as he holds my hand and walk towards the doorway.
"Ms Anna," We stop in our tracks, Dylan turns around curiously.
I turn around to meet Mr Han who is leaning against the door frame his arms crossed over his chest. He moves his gaze down and stops in midway ,his orbs staring at my hand,I look down curiously to find out that my hands are clutched in Dylan's.
"Yes," I break the awkward silence.
"You are supposed to have breakfast here," he declares his voice stern.
"Anna what is Mr Han doing here," Dylan questions, I turn around to face him " What were you doing there," he asks.
Alright,my bad I've never told Dylan about Mr Han being my neighbor and landlord , I thought it was nothing important to talk about.
"Ms Anna and I were.....," Mr Han interrupts before I speak, I pull Dylan in and shut the door quickly.
"Okay,,you gotta have something to tell me I guess," Dylan says walking towards the dining table.
"I forgot to tell you that Mr Han is my neighbor and landlord.,"
"That's okay ,come lets have breakfast," he says while unpacking the food.
A gentle smile forms on my lips, I walk towards the table and join him to unpack the food.
"Won't you be late for work," I ask placing the cutlery on the table,and we took our seats opposite to each other.
"That's okay, I don't mind spending time with my sweetheart," he blurts taking a bite of the sandwich.
When thebword sweetheart rang in my ears I remember how Mr Han calls me and every time he does that it made me feel butterflies.
"Did you have medicine,shall we visit a doctor," he places the sandwich on the plate and looks at me in concern.
"I said," I point at him" I'm completely fine, a little bit of sleep will be enough," I utter taking a bite of my sandwich.
"Alright then...," He pauses when the sound of my bell rings.
"I got that," I get up and hurry to the door curiously not knowing who it is.
Opening the door my eyes widens in horror.
"Soo sad," he places his palm on the left side of his chest.
"What?," I snap.
"The breakfast I made is being a waste," he pouts as his lower lips hangs low,damn how can he act soo cute. iy gawk at him trying to figure out what he means.
"Ms Anna aren't you supposed to have breakfast with me," he speaks aloud.
Seriously,is he out of his mind why does he have to say that aloud.
"I'm sorry Mr Han, I'm already having my breakfast," I reply with a fake smile.
He stares down at me for a long time.
"fine,you can join us if you want to,"
"Us," he grins sarcastically "I'll join you,"
"My friend is here,"
"I don't like eating with others,"
"Then have breakfast on your own,"
"You are not others Ms Anna," he blurts staring down at me.
He is really getting on my nerves right now.
"Fine then,do whatever you want," I growl and walk in leaving him at the doorway.
Walking towards the table I take my seat opposite to Dylan and take a huge bite of the sandwich to release my anger.
"Is everything fine," Dylan asks.
"Yes yes, continue eating," I speak with the food in my mouth.
The sound footsteps fell into my ears , I turn towards my left to see Mr Han walking in with his plate which made me choke. Grabbing the glass of water I gulp it down looking at Dylan who is shocked as me my eyes moves to the sides to see him while I'm still dropping water to my throat.
"Hello,Mr Han," he greets.
"Hello,"he replies dryly , walking forward he takes a seat next to me " Ms Anna wanted me to join the breakfast," I choke in my glass, placing the glass on the table I take the tissue which Dylan gave me. Wiping my mouth I glare at Mr Han throwing daggers at him but he seems to all fine here.
I would say that the air around us is suffocating and yi just didn't like this situation, Mr Han's and my plate has the food which he arranged and Dylan was unpacking the food he bought. The surrounding is left in silence except for the sound of the foils being open and the cutlery sound of the weirdo next to me.
How can he enjoy his breakfast after making the whole scene awkward.
