Chapter 18
I hear Mr Han peep the horn, wearing a pair of white sneakers I hurry out. Mr Han is waiting for me downstairs in his car, I'm late as it's almost going to be 3 O'clock,I completely forgotet about what he told yesterday, I couldn't rest well last night all because of him,whenever I close my eyes the rememberance of him kissing me after ages of trying rolling around the me displays in my mind. I fell asleep at about four and woke up for my usual alarm later I remembered that there is no need to go to the office today as we are directly driving to the hotel when I received the message from Mr Han. I wore a black pinafore which lands below my knees and a long sleeve off white shirt inside. I rush down to the parking lot and got in the car.
"Sorry for the delay," I apologize buckling up my seatbelt.
He moves forward and reaches to back seat, grabbing something he hands it over to me. I look at him and then at his hand to find my bag.
"Oh,thanks,"taking it I open the bag and pull out my phone to text Dylan and I'm glad that it has charge.
I remain silent for the whole drive meddling with my phone as I was texting Dylan and I'm glad that MrHan is quiet too. The climate is gloomy and the sky is getting dark, I look up when the heavy water drops splatters on the car front screen. It's raining.
Pushing the phone inside my bag I rest my shoulders on the seat as I clutch my stomach ,the whole silent drive is boring and the empty roads was nothing to be viewed at, my lower stomach began to hurt.
I mentally slap my face for not noticing the date. I close my eyes praying God that we should arrive to the hotel quickly as its a long drive and I just wanna return soon.
My eyelids open slowly, the car is in halt and I feel something below my chin. Drawing my eyeball down my eyes widens, he has been holding my chin while I was sleeps hanging my head forward. Staring at the front screen for few seconds I move my eyeballs to the left to see him observing me, quickly I move and he takes his arm and places his palm on his thigh. I pull out the tissue aggressively from the tissue box which is on the deck, holding the tissue with my left hand I move it closer to his palm, I wipe his palm quickly while he looks down at his hand and I look infront. I wipe around my mouth with my right hand.
Damn....I was drooling while sleeping.
"Sorry," I whisper while pulling out another pair of tissues to wipe his hand.
"I don't mind it," he blurts taking the tissue from my hand.
"What happened?," I question not daring to look at him.
"Breakdown,I called Harry and he is on his way," he answers checking his phone.
I clutch my stomach as the cramp is being unbearable and I totally felt helpless not knowing what to do.
"Let's get into a near by hotel," he says unbuckeling his seatbelt,he removes his black jacket. Getting down he rushes to the opposite side of the car he opens my door while I unbuckle the seatbelt. iy keep a step out,and he pulls me to his chest and closes the door with his left while holding his jacket above our heads. My heartbeat was racing while we walked to the hotel and thank god it was close by.
Entering the hotel he hands me the jacket and walks to the registration.
"Come," he calls out softly and I follow him behind.
"There is only one place left," he informs rounding the key around his finger. I stop in my tracks and look at him.
"Is something wrong Ms Anna," he smirks bending low his hot minty breath brushing against my wet cold skin.
"No!," I snap trying to show that no scenarios were in my mind.
"You freshen up first," he says while unbuttoning his wet shirt. I rush to the washroom in a flash.
"Ms Anna how long are you taking,do you want me to fall sick," he shouts standing outside the washroom. While I'm standing infront of the mirror debating with myself whether I should tell him or not. I completely forget that I gave the pad which was with me to a colleague in the office.
"Ms Anna,Are you okay?,"he knocks at the door.
Taking a deep breath in and out I sigh. Walking towards the door I open it a little and peep my head out to meet my boss with his shirt half unbuttoned which made me to close the door in an instant.
"Mr Han," I call out leaning on the door inside.
"Yes,"I hear him , I'm sure that he is close to the door.
"I ...um..I just,may you," I stutter biting my lower lips not knowing how to ask him for it.
"May I what?," He questions aloud.
"May you ...umm..buy me....uh...uh,"
"Sanitary pads,"my eyes widens when I hear him,how does he know it, I stay silent not uttering a word.
"Stay in, I'll be back," he tells aloud and I hear the door shut.
I walk to and fro in the washroom anxiously for a long time. I stop in my tracks when I hear the sound of the door open, rushing to the door it place my ear on the washroom door to hear.
"Here," I hear his voice close to the door and the movement of the plastic bag can be heard in the silence as the sound of the rain cannot be heard in here.
I open the door slightly , moving my hand out, I grab the bag and close the door immediately. Placing the huge bag on the sink I open it to find out that there are many of them in different brands.I smile at his behaviour thinking of how he bought it.
I walk with my bathrobe out looking around to find him, placing the plastic bag on the sofa table I sit on the sofa and sigh a of relief escapes my lips. Resting my shoulders on the sofa I close my eyes , my lips twitches up when Mr Han flashes in my mind.
"Sorry, I didn't know what brand you prefer so I bought all,"I shoot open my eyes ,to find my shirtless boss walking out of the kitchen,he stands beside the sofa " Have this," he holds a glass forward.
I look at him curiously and take the glass"It's brown sugar ginger tea," he utters.
"Thanks,"I smile taking a sip of it.
"Use this," he helds something else forward, I look at it and it's a hot bag " And that chocolate is for you," he says pointing on the table, I look towards the direction he pointed,a huge chocolate bar layed there , movinh my gaze back to him I take the hot bag which he was holding.
"Thanks," I whisper with a smile looking up at him with my cheeks heated up.
He bends low and brings his face closer to mine"Am I making your heart flutter Ms Anna," he whispers looking right into my eyes.
