LET'S GO ON A DATE

Chris drove his car at full speed. He was worried that Tristan was angry with Vivi's behavior and took it out on Haruna. Although, Christian knows that Tristan likes Haruna but the worry is still there.

Tristan often plays women. That's what made Chris worried that Tristan's love was only temporary. Chris is afraid Haruna is just a toy for Tristan.

"Wait for me, Haruna!" He muttered as he continued to watch the road.

Tristan drove his car towards the beach. Arriving at the beach, Tristan turned off the car engine. He turned to Haruna who was still staring at the palms in his lap.

"How long are you going to keep quiet like that?" Tristan couldn't contain his annoyance.

However, Haruna still remained silent. Tristan grabbed Haruna's hand and forced a kiss to her lips. Tristan had no other choice but to force her.

"Tris… let me go!"

Tristan did it on purpose to stop Haruna from daydreaming. Of course that is the most effective way. Evidently, even though Haruna had been ignoring Tristan, when Tristan touched her, she reacted.

Tristan finished his kiss and smiled triumphantly. Haruna always loses to Tristan. This time too, Tristan again makes Haruna lose in the fight against each other.

"You!" Haruna snapped while rubbing her lips.

"Why, disappointed that it didn't continue like this morning," Tristan teased.

"Tristan!" Haruna shouted in annoyance. 

There was a sense of shame that made Haruna annoyed at Tristan's words. Haruna was embarrassed because she really enjoyed Tristan's hand and tongue this morning.

While Tristan laughed amused at Haruna's tantrum. Haruna's face now looks better than it did a moment ago. He screamed loudly when Haruna bit his hand.

"Ah! It hurts! You're just like a tiger," said Tristan, rubbing his hand.

"Let it go! Because you're annoying. Luckily I only bit your hand. If this tiger bites your neck, you're dead!" Haruna grumbled back.

"Ehm, so … My lovely tiger wants to bite my neck. Then try to bite it, here!" Tristan looked up and brought his neck closer to Haruna.

"What do you want? Don't come near!" Haruna pushed Tristan's body with all her might, but Tristan didn't move an inch. She also couldn't run anywhere because they were still in the car.

"Are you saying you want to bite my neck? Here, let's bite if you dare!" challenged Tristan.

"Nope! Go away! Who said I wanted to do it, you pervert!" Haruna shouted.

"You don't want to? Then ... just let me," said Tristan with a mischievous smile.

"Huh? No, not! Tris …."

Haruna couldn't talk anymore because Tristan covered Haruna's mouth with one hand. Tristan's other hand held Haruna's hands behind the back of the car seat. Tristan bit Haruna's neck and sucked gently.

Tristan stopped the kiss and whispered in Haruna's ear. "Do you want to continue?" she whispered. 

Tristan's breath brushed against Haruna's earlobe.

Haruna shook her head quickly when she heard Tristan's passionate question. She didn't want Tristan to do that to him again. Haruna looked at Tristan's face with contempt.

Tristan let go of the hand covering Haruna's mouth. He stroked Haruna's cheek then landed his lips on Haruna's lips. He kissed her thin pink lips greedily. At first Haruna was silent. However, the soft play of Tristan's lips make Haruna slowly burn with her desire.

Haruna returned Tristan's affectionate kiss with her eyes closed. Tristan slowly released his grip on Haruna's hands. She wrapped her arms around Tristan's neck and they exchanged saliva. They suck and bite each other's tongue lightly.

The relationship with no clear status continued until Haruna gasped for breath because they had kissed for so long. Tristan pulled his face away slightly. He looked at Haruna with a happy smile. While Haruna lowered her face in shame. Tristan lifted Haruna's chin with his index finger.

"Haruna, I like you."

Haruna seemed to be hit hard in the chest. Her heart felt like it was about to jump out, a feeling of tightness came down her throat. Believe it or not, when Haruna heard the declaration of love from Tristan's lips.

"Will you be my companion?" asked Tristan with a gentle look.

Their eyes met each other. Meeting eyes at a very close distance, made Haruna even more nervous and awkward. Her heart was quiet.

(Haruna, you have to get rid of this arrogant man. How can you accept him as a companion? What should I do?) Haruna's heart is soft.

"Tristan, can you sit properly?" Haruna asked. 

Her heart was beating very fast. She was afraid that Tristan would hear the pounding in her chest.

Tristan sat back down behind the wheel. He stares at the sea wide in front. His heart was anxiously waiting for Haruna's answer.

(I think it will be easier for me to escape if I pretend to accept it. But I have to ask him for time before getting married. I have to prepare a place for my family first before I run away from Tristan's house.) Haruna thought. She turned to Tristan. With a bit of hesitation, Haruna answered.

"I don't want to be your companion. I don't want to live like house arrest. Being your wife means that I will forever be imprisoned in your house. I don't want to," replied Haruna. She had said it on purpose to make Tristan change his mind.

"What do you want? I'll grant it, except back to your family," threatened Tristan.

"Give me two months before we get married," said Haruna.

"Okay."

"Let me work again," said Haruna again.

"Yes, but be my assistant at the office. I don't want you to go back to working at the bank," Tristan replied.

"No problem. One more thing, I want my room keyed!" Haruna asked.

"Why?"

"I don't want you to do things to me in the middle of the night." Haruna replied with pouting lips.

"Okay, I'll do whatever you want. So, are we dating now?" Tristan asked with a smile sweeter than sugar.

Haruna nodded slowly. Tristan was very happy and hugged Haruna tightly. The feelings that had been bothering him for the past few days.

"I want to ask you why you kept quiet earlier. I'm very uncomfortable seeing you moody," said Tristan.

"I feel sad that I have used this hand to hurt Vivi." She answered quietly. 

She looked back at her palms. However, now Tristan was holding the palm of her hand.

"What's the reason you slapped her?" Tristan asked. 

He wanted to know why Haruna did that. Is it because he doesn't want Vivi to embarrass him or is there another reason?

"I can't answer because I'm afraid you'll torture me again, right? Why should I ask such a difficult question," Haruna thought.

Seeing Haruna silent, Tristan didn't ask anymore. He didn't care what Haruna's reasoning was. Right now, he just wants to enjoy happiness with Haruna. Enjoy the beautiful feeling of love that once was lost because of his lover, Stevi.
