Chapter 4 STOLEN KISS
“Especially you,” he said softly and then smiled at me.
I looked at Alem if she had heard that but it didn’t seem to be because her attention was just on eating.
“All right, be careful too,” I told him cheerfully.
Sometimes Ardent and I are okay but all of the time I am curious about his stare. There was something in his gaze that I could not understand.
When I got home, I excitedly made my way to the clinic but I didn’t show it to Alem.
“This is how we’re going to pretend. You need to act if your head hurts. I’ll take you there.”
I almost laughed because of what Alem said. She’s very supportive. We are actually going to do a scene so that Laurent can notice me.
“You’re good at acting. This is for the sake of your love life so you won’t be NBSB already. I had encountered so many heartbroken events. You are still single. You need to act! Act now and get what you want tomorrow” She preached to me while fixing my hair. I winced. Do I really need to do this? Yes, I need to!
“We’re close so your acting skills should come out,” she said and we peeked to see if anyone was there. When we saw nothing, we went straight. I acted dizzy and held my forehead.
“Doc!” Alem called Laurent. Alem was able to support me and I was all acting with a headache.
“My … headache,” I said and pretended to pass out. You’re great Anm! I can’t believe I’m doing this for my very thirsty love life.
“What happened?” I saw Laurent’s concern and quickly backed up to me.
As soon as he held my arm, the electricity automatically crawled there but I did want him to notice it. I seem to get a fever from the shivering and eventually get sick.NôvelD(ram)a.ôrg owns this content.
“She’s had a headache before. Are you going to die, huh?” She pretended to cry so I pinched him because the acting was too much. No tears came out.
“You are overreacting,” I whispered to her so she stopped.
I was surprised when Laurent suddenly picked me up. He touched my waist and grabbed me up with his masculine arm. Woah!
The sweetness of the feeling. I stared at his face. He looked straight ahead as he carried me like how a new wedding couple did. When I glanced at Alem, he stopped sneezing. It was as if she was rubbing her ass, biting his lip, and squirming uncontrollably with the shiver.
Woah! You will be the cause of my death.
I wanted to shout that but I couldn’t. When he put me down on the bed I was still dumbfounded in his face. He is really handsome. I think I’m going crazy!
“Doc, there’s an emergency. I’m leaving you to take care of my friend,” Alem said and when he glanced at me, he winked.
There is nothing in the conversation that she will leave me!
There aren’t too many people here at the clinic because I would have gone home if I hadn’t come.
“What kind of pain? Does it hurt or crawl?” Laurent asked while looking at my face.
I was once again stunned by his handsomeness. He is the only man who can lose my sanity. Her voice was sweet to the ear. His presence is like magic biting into my body. Even if I was just looking at him. I can’t explain my happiness.
“What are you doing here?” Suddenly I woke up to his question. “Nothing really hurts, does it?” He asked with a frown.
Wow! He guessed!
I immediately searched for an answer but I couldn’t find anything so I was ashamed to avert my eyes.
“If I were you go home,” he said rudely and then turned away.
I quickly stood up and held her arm. We were both stunned and stared at my hand on his arm.
“I’m sorry,” I removed that and averted my gaze.
“Tell me, what do you want?” I looked at him again and saw his irritated face. Doesn’t he really like me?
“I want you,” I covered my mouth. I said that unconsciously. I was not a thing! Anmela, you are crazy!
“Tsk,” he grinned but was also immediately replaced by a bad look. “You don’t know what you’re talking about.”
“Ahm,” I shyly looked down. “Can I like you, Laurent?” My whole body trembled at what I said and my cheeks immediately warmed up.
I don’t know where I drew the courage. I know I’m a woman but there’s nothing wrong with sometimes the culture changes. When you want it, work hard for it. That was what my mom and dad said. You need to do everything to get it. Every hard work would be paid off when you have the courage to pursue your dream.
Is it like that? That’s right, isn’t it? When you are a lover you should ask.
“Seriously?” He still frowned.
“I am going to court you,” I shyly averted my gaze and backed away as he approached me. He got closer and closer until I could reach the cement.
“Back off,” he said firmly and boldly so I was depressed with the pain.
He really doesn’t like me! Maybe he doesn’t like the girl who easily confesses, but I don’t care.
This is my first time being in love with a guy. Why would I ban myself?
Trembling, I said. “I don’t care as long as I like you I will court you.” I was shocked at myself again.
I stared at his face until I looked down at his lips. I was attracted then. I want to taste at least one. This will be the best day of my life if ever. He is really handsome. What if I kiss him? This will be my first kiss! I don’t care what he thinks.
I brought my face close to him and quickly stole a fast kiss on his lips.
I saw the shock on his face and his stupor. Before he could react I ran out of that clinic. My smile was wide and my heart was pounding so hard. Got you!
“See you tomorrow, Mr. Baider!”
