"You cooked so well… I can't stop eating…" he echoed her words but why did those ordinary words suddenly sound so seductive when he said it? Gosh… this man… he didn't need to say it that way!
Ah… he couldn't believe even this torture felt so good to him, so heavenly, even just kissing her barrier like this. This was so different and just as he imagined, she tasted simply divine.
"It's because you're... you're making me feel so emotional. I… I didn't know you already felt something… for me even then. I… had no idea at all. I thought… I thought I was the only one who couldn't stop thinking about you since the day I met you."
Now that she thought about it, ever since he had fulfilled her first request, Alex always made them extra grand, turning every simple request to something beyond spectacular. She thought that was just him, just Alex being the beyond perfect man that he was. But then, he also told her that doing those requests with her were firsts for him, too!
Andrew then glanced at his daughter one more time while Alex remained standing there like he was unsure if it was rude for him to turn his back to his girlfriend's father first. Seeing him still not moving, Andrew told him to go and when he finally jumped in the car, Andrew smiled as he watched them disappear into the horizon.
But… asking him to marry her was over the top as well. She couldn't possibly marry him just to leave him after eight more days. No matter how much she wanted this to happen, even if this was her ultimate wish, she would never force Alex to marry her.
"That's right, it's not over yet!" His dead spirit was resurrected in a second. How could he give her up so easily? Besides, he still didn't trust that mysterious man. What if he hurt his Abi?
Abi's family finally realized that their attention had been on Chris this whole time that they almost forgot about Abi's boyfriend. No wonder the young man looked unhappy but they couldn't blame him. They totally understood why he was jealous and they felt sorry for being inconsiderate especially when they recalled that all they've been talking about were Chris and Abi's childhood since the party started.
"Abi," he called out and Chris let go of her upon seeing him. Alex stared at Chris as he spoke. "I've decided to stay and sleep here with you again tonight."
"Uhm… he's my boyfriend," she introduced and everyone gaped at Alex. She looked up at Alex and the man cleared his throat before he began introducing himself.
