I ate dinner at a slow pace as I wasn't hungry but I knew I had to finish it up as I hate wasting food. I ate in a daze with my eyes unconsciously moving to the door every minute.

It was almost night and Adams hadn't returned but then I knew he was a busy man and would have a lot to do at his office. He had wasted a lot of time here with me and I felt guilty about it. Even with my slow pace, I finished eating my food then packed the plate and arranged the table so as not to give the nurses more jobs to do by messing up this place.

“Creak!”

And her mentioning this now shows she wants to know what I think but I don't know. I pulsed my lips and looked at her helplessly, how can I explain to her? “You know you can explain simply? I just want to know why you are doing this! It's not that hard to tell me right?!” She pressed on and I just knew she was determined to hear from me today and my lips curled up in a small smile as I felt she was so cute with her stubborn face. “I don't know what I feel about you, Merina. I had truly wanted toKeep you safe at first, as I felt it was fate meeting you in the bar that night, but then…I won't deny your attractiveness.

Is it about the question I asked? Yoh…Do you have someone in mind?” I turned to look at Micca and seeing her mischievous look, I knew she would tease me with this for a long time. I smiled and continued driving, “No. I have no one yet. But when the time comes I will introduce her to you.” I said.She was quiet for a while, and I couldn't help but turn to look at her, “What's wrong?” She raised her head and smiled at me, “So you have someone in mind?

I shook my head and looked at her deeply until she rolled her eyes in annoyance and glared at me with eyes filled with venom. I laughed softly and then patted her hair, scattering the hairstyle she had on which made her slap my palm angrily. “Micca!” I called out in a serious note, and when she turned to look at me, “If my parents talk nonsense with you, don't bother giving them a face and tell them your decision. You don't need to think of respect and all. Reject them with peace of mind, okay?!” I said clearly. She looked at me with a confused look then turned to look up, and when I followed her glance I saw my dad also descending the stairs. I snorted coldly then walked down to sit on the couch and then brought out my phone to return emails. I wouldn't have stayed
