Chapter 20

Getting a day off with a pay leave is something precious and joyful. Yesterday I came home after Harry arrived and Mr Han drove to the hotel to check on the furnitures ,Harry drove me back and today he gave me a day off, taking two days off made me feel guilty yet I would say that Mr Han is surely the sweetest boss out of all.Harry and other staffs told me that he doesn't allow his employees to take a leave easily unless if it is something very important,even a sick leave is taken as a no pay leave but I got two days pay leave. Maybe the rumours about him wrong I just think that he is a cold outside but actually too warm inside. Taking the ringing phone from the table I place the packet of chips on it. "What's up," I answer as soon as I hear his his hello. "Let's meet," Dylan replies. "Why do you sound like we haven't met for a long time," I joke taking the packet,taking a bite of a chip I smile because he sounds odd. "By the lake at 4," he informs and hangs up. Looking up I see the time , it's three pass already, finishing the packet of chips ,I freshen up myself. While drying my hair with the hair dryer my thoughts was full of Mr Han. Walking out I hum a song while smiling imagining of me and Mr Han. I've gone completely crazy and I'm sure that mu brain needs to be checked,I just couldn't resist myself from thinking of him and he is surely making me fall for him. Randomly picking up a high collar navy blue mini frock I began to get ready. Applying some pink lipstick I step back to take a glance at my image, I pull up my hair into a messy bun and wear the glasses. Wearing a white canteen bag I put on my white heels and head out. Standing in the bus stop I meddle with the handle of my bag, Dylan sounded completely different and I'm curious to know why,but my mind doesn't pay attention to it, my brain is completely absorbed about him and I cannot control my blush and the racing heart beat when his thoughts plays in my mind. I stare out for the whole drive, when the sound of the bell rang into my ears I get down from the bus as I arrived to my destination. Walking forward I stop in my tracks when my eyes found Dylan. He leans over the bridge looking at the view , he has worn a black shirt tucked in a dark pair of denim. I walk further ,he turns around when the sound of my heels ticking got through his ears as I'm in a few distance away from him ,my feet rooted on the spot when my eyes fell on what he was holding. A bouquet of red roses. He walks towards me his lips formed into his most charming smile, "You are here," he speaks softly with that smile of his which makes your heart melt. Standing Infront of me he looks directly into my eyes, he doesn't seem to be like usual for sure, he takes a step even closer where I stay in one spot staring at him trying make my mind stable. "You look pretty as always," he smiles, moving his right hand up he tucks a strand of my hair behind my right ear. "Thanks," I utter trying to form my lips into a smile but I was to astonish by his move that I couldn't do anything. "Anna," he calls ,his voice low and soft. "Yeeeaah," I cheer up trying to get out of the awkward feeling building up in me,I step back smiling widely. He takes a step forward and holds the bouquet of red roses, moving my gaze to thr bouquet I look back at him. "Anna," his voice comes out loud his smile not disappeared "Will you be my girlfriend," he proposes, his eyes showing that he is not joking at all.I stare at him trying to collect the words he said, blinking my eyes which has been opened for a long time without my realisation. Everything went still, I feel my heart beat rise in nervousness, I just rooted my feet there looking at him not knowing how to respond to the current situation. I don't know what it makes me feel,but even at this situation a thought of him flashes in my mind, thinking if it was him I would surely get all those butterflies and burning skin. I should not be doing this, I've liked Dylan since we knew each other but I never expected that the thought of growing a crush for him was a complete mistake, I couldn't get those happy feelings of us dating,maybe I took him as my friend at all times,may be I was wrong when he showed up when I'm miserable. Maybe I misunderstood my feelings. I try to form words in my mind but my throat went dry , I can't say no to the person who has always been by my side and supported me at all means. "Stop joking," I snap taking the flowers, acting like his words never effected me. "I'm not Anna," he whispers almost for himself but it fell into my ears as the sound of the vehicles and birds didn't get through my ears, I stare at him astonishingly and the fake wide smile vanished by its own ,he takes a step forward another step closing the distance between us ,he looks at me deeply while I just stare at him ,my body stopped functioning. He moves his palms forward and cups my face , bringing his face nearer to mine "I love you," he whispers moving his lips closer to mine which is frozen, the grip on the bouquet loosened when his upper lip touches my lower one. Abruptly my eyes widens when I felt a grasp in my arm,I was turned around and my lips crashes with another which made the bouquet in my hand fall to the ground, and this seemed completely familiar, coming back to reality I open my eyes wide to capture what's happening. I push him behind and stteo back staring at Mr Han. I turn around to take a look at Dylan and I'm sure that he is shocked as I am turning around I walk towards Mr Han. "Come," I grasp his arm and pull him with me.
