59: You don’t love me
Hana was seated on the swing attached to the treehouse when she saw KJ walk to the interconnected mini basketball field with a ball. He bounced it on the floor, unaware of the person watching him. She wasn’t sure if to leave or stay. There was a ladder in case she wanted to climb up to the treehouse.
Kyle didn’t love her. She shouldn’t be upset since she was the one who told him love didn’t matter to her. But if the rest of his family could love her, why couldn’t he? She stopped swinging when Kyle walked out of the house. He curved a hand over his forehead as if searching for someone, and she tried to shrink into herself. She was right when she told him he did nothing wrong, but his response still hurt her feelings.
KJ stopped bouncing when he noticed his brother and waved him over to the court. Given the size of the court, she suspected it was built for only the McKenna kids. Kyle joined his brother on the court. He wasn’t dre

The couple walked back to the house hand in hand. They had spent some time kissing and talking, then went down to use the swing. It was darker now. The sun had gone down, painting the sky in warm colours.Hana giggled when Kyle nudged her with his hip.“Baby,” she murmured, her cheeks flaming red.It was no news that she had never had a boyfriend or any relationship with the other gender. Perhaps that was why her cheeks lighted up each time she let out the pet name. But she didn’t want to stop. They were close to the back door when he lifted and swung her midair. Her head fell back with laughter and contentment as she took in the garden, court, and treehouse upside.Happiness swelled in her chest when she locked her arms around his waist. “I like you.”“I like you more,” he said. He set her down at the foot of the stairs. She knew this door led to the kitchen. “Do you want us t
His Runaway Angel 61: Fighting
On Tuesday morning, Calvin was still in a mood. He tried to hide his dismay after Sunday’s night dinner, but he couldn’t hold back his annoyance this morning. Angel looked too happy as she packed her belongings into the small travel suitcase Camilla gifted her. If his sister continued gifting his wife-to-be, there would be no space for the things he would get her.Angel held a dress to her chest and twirled. Her enthusiasm made him smile, but it only lasted a few seconds before it was gone. He thought she was the only person she wanted to keep, and that involved them always staying in the same place together.Covering the gap, Calvin hugged her from behind. He deliberately let his fingers brush her boobs knowing she wasn’t wearing a bra and was horny, thanks to her hormones.“If you’re doing it for them, you don’t have to,” he said. Angel twisted until she was facing him. “They will be miffed but okay.”
His Runaway Angel 62: See you
Calvin didn’t change his mind about the meeting with Angel’s father. For now, he would focus on other things like asking Angel if she wanted to press charges against him. It was Thursday morning, and he was preparing for work. Cara’s number was still unreachable. Angel hadn’t stopped trying, but he was taking a break.His head cocked to the side as the door to their bedroom opened. Angel walked in with a smile. She must have been cooking. It was something she started yesterday. Waking up early enough to make him food before he left and also a lunch pack for work. He would argue against it, but it made her happy.“Need any help?” she asked as he fiddled with the cufflinks of his shirt. He shook his head. “Sure?”“Yeah. Thanks.”Angel walked further into the room but went straight to grab her bag. He hadn’t gotten her to change her mind, not like he had asked. He was more wo
His Runaway Angel 63: Are you okay?
A whole day passed without Kyle calling Hana. She wasn’t sure what that meant or if it signified the end of her relationship with him. Sitting by the window, she picked up the phone on the sill and pulled out her contact list. The one person she wanted to call was missing. She was silly not to have her husband-to-be number, and she didn’t know how to ask his mum or sister without calling attention to the problem.Kyle’s excuse had sounded genuine enough for the parents not to worry about her impromptu presence. Camilla had moved back to the house to make Hana’s stay more memorable, but she had been too disoriented last night and most of this morning. The family had chucked it up to her absence from Kyle, but it was more than that. It was the guilt of knowing she hurt him with her words. She really didn’t mean it, but when he continuously insisted, downplaying her wants to make himself feel better, she had felt like that shy girl who did all of he
His Runaway Angel 64: Diane
A breath caught in Calvin’s throat. God, he had missed his angel. Her presence stirred mixed emotions deep within him. His arms looped around the body pressed to his but lacked the force hers did. Angel must have noticed his lack of excitement because she stepped back and waved.“Hey,” she said without looking at his face. Her dress was tight around her waist, highlighting the thinness of it and her voluminous boobs. He missed touching them, burying his face between those gorgeousness.“Hey,” he replied.Calvin’s gaze strayed back up to her face, and he noticed she was wearing makeup. He would have kissed her if things were normal between them. The time away from her hadn’t cooled his temper. Being away from her annoyed him, being around her had his emotions in a knot. It was a first for him.Their prolonged stay at the café entrance had attracted some attention to them. He kept his face down fo
His Runaway Angel 65: You need to see this
Calvin could feel eyes on him before he turned. Some were polite not to stare when he looked their way. Others didn’t care. A few had their phones out, but he wouldn’t give them drama. Minutes after Angel walked out on him, he hadn’t moved an inch. He grabbed a napkin and dabbed at his face and jacket. He was officially done with work for the day.She said she meant it. That Baba was better than him. Wow. How could she? Paying the bills, Calvin walked out. He did a double take when he saw her by the corner trying to make a call. Camilla must have left her. Oh, right. His sister told him to bring Angel home. Calvin chuckled as he crossed the distance. Angel didn’t look up, but he was certain she had seen and heard him.“No one is coming to get you. I’ll take you home,” he told her. She ignored him. “Hana.”“I can find my way.”Calvin slid his hands into his pockets. The shake had
His Runaway Angel 66: Are you sure?
A week passed without Kyle calling Hana. Last week Friday, she had wanted to stay back in the car so Andrea would take her to him, but the driver had pleaded with her for them to leave. For fear of him losing his job, she agreed. Camilla had taken a look at her and knew nothing went to plan. They gave him one more day to fix up. A day turned to two. Two days turned to a week.But he never showed up or asked about her or her welfare from his sister, so right now on a dull Friday evening, she was getting ready to go clubbing with Camilla. It was all Kyle sister’s idea. Hana had no choice. Well, she also wanted to forget the hurt. He brought his… his woman to the café. How could he? He should have simply told Hana he was done with their relationship. Was that why he stayed away for the whole week? Why he didn’t call or text her?“Chin up,” Camilla said, her voice cutting through Hana’s thoughts. She did as told for C
His Runaway Angel 67: Lie down
No one opened the door for Hana. She tried a few more times and gave up. Sitting on the floor, she hugged her legs to her chest and propped her jaw on her knees. Minutes felt like hours. Hana would never know how long she waited there. The loud footsteps on the floor made her head raise. She blinked in shock as Kyle staggered towards her. He stopped once to place a hand on the wall and catch his step. She was still too stunned to move, so she watched him idle in her direction.Hana stood when Kyle reached the door. If he saw her, he didn’t acknowledge her. She was quiet beside him as he fumbled in his pocket for something. Moments later, he pulled out a key. The air around him smelt different, like he had been drinking. Her eyes dragged down his body, unsure what she was looking for.Where was he coming from? Who was he with? Did he drive here? Who let him leave?Kyle tried to insert two keys into the keyhole at once and missed. Hana winced as he pul
