260 Compensation

Throughout the entire time, Joshua's eyes were fixed on Ivy. He had not heard a word anybody had said. He had observed her thoroughly and he realized that his woman looked beautiful even from the side. His hands were itching to caress her cheeks which by now had turned rosy. He could see that his presence was affecting her and she was yearning for his love just like him.

He coughed lightly to gain her attention but in vain. His woman did not even react. She had made up her mind to ignore him. He was just a hanging on the wall meant for decoration, nothing more right now. Not getting the result he wanted, Joshua stopped coughing. He bit his lips thinking about what he should execute next and he got a brilliant idea. He pushed himself closer to Ivy such that their legs were almost touching. He leaned forward slightly and he breathed lowly on her face, startling her. His lips were too close to her ears and if she turned to him, she would end up giving him a peck.
