Colin chuckled softly. He held me tighter and casually patted my curvy bottom a couple of times. Then, he bit my ear and said, "You're really driving me crazy. When can we sleep together? I'm really impatient."His words made me blush. He started blowing hot air and lightly pecking my ears and neck, tickling me so much that I involuntarily shrank back.For a moment, I really wanted to just give in to him. After all, he would have his way with me sooner or later. There was no need to be so stubborn about things. But then I thought again and told myself not to rush. I convinced myself that the time was not right. I should be reserved."Colin, stop teasing me," I coquettishly protested, pushing away his mischievous head with my hand.The fluffy feeling of his hair against my hand was like that of a big, playful dog.I was afraid that if he continued to tease me, I wouldn't be able to control myself. After all, I had a fetish for good looks and a nice voice. Colin perfectly matched my
Colin stopped tickling me and placed his hands on either side of my body, his forehead against mine. The intoxicating look in his eyes made my heart pound. "Really? Then when will you agree to sleep with me? I've been waiting for so long that I've almost crippled my left hand."As I realized the inevitable connection between his proposal and crippling his left hand, my face turned tomato red. Even though I was inexperienced, I knew what he meant. In this age of the internet, everything was available online. Even if I hadn't experienced something personally, I had seen and heard enough.However, it was a little embarrassing for someone to insinuate such things about me. It was the first time it was happening too. I was a shy person.As I blushed profusely, I felt too embarrassed to look into his eyes. I kept dodging and avoiding them.Bold words could be spoken easily, but actually doing it was not that simple. I wasn't mentally prepared for it.Colin started biting my ear again,
"Go ahead. We'll have lunch at home. I'll take a look if there's anything you like."I had originally wanted to relieve myself. But after being stared at by Felix just now, I couldn't do it anymore. I sat on the toilet in turmoil for a full five minutes, but I still couldn't calm my panicked and fearful heart.Colin knocked on the bathroom door with concern, bringing my scattered soul back. I turned on the tap to wash my hands and opened the door without drying them. Water was still dripping from my fingers.Felix was still maintaining his posture on the couch. He slowly turned his head toward me upon hearing the bathroom door open. He was repeatedly saying in a very soft and cold voice, "...given her heart to him for saving her…"With Colin around, I wasn't afraid of him. But the words he kept repeating made me shudder with fear and unease."Lulu, don't be afraid. I won't hurt you," Felix lowered his head and whispered. Then, he continued, "Lulu, after missing out for so many y
He was so clean, so pure, and so pleasing to the eye.Felix seemed to sense my gaze as he turned his head slightly. Upon seeing me, he gave me a faint smile. It was as if he were still the handsome young man from back then.The moment our eyes met, my heart stopped. I quickly turned and ran back into the house.The current Felix seemed to have too many different sides. His ever-changing nature added to the pressure on my mind. The thought that he might harm me became even stronger.…After lunch, I didn't feel like staying there any longer. Colin drove me back home and went home himself.Both my parents were taking a nap after lunch, leaving me with nothing to do but lay in bed and browse my phone.Back when I was at Lincoln University, Queenie, Julia, and I formed a small group of three on WhatsApp. Whenever someone had something on their mind, they'd talk about it there. Discussing it together always felt better than keeping it to ourselves.And today, I found out about somet
"When I was eight, Aunt Mel and her parents moved in next door to your grandma's house. At that time, she was thin and small. She wore ill-fitting clothes and often sneaked a peek at me from the balcony."I've known her for over 40 years now, and I've been best friends with her for almost 30 years. She has really disappointed me. Lately, I've been feeling guilty for letting you be scolded by her in front of so many people."It was all because I was blind and mistook a bad person for a friend."Mom's eyes reddened, so I quickly grabbed a tissue to wipe away her tears.It was impossible not to blame Aunt Mel. After all, the things she said clearly showed that she couldn't stand seeing Colin and me together. She was ready to break us apart.But Mom had been friends with Aunt Mel for decades. They were like sisters despite not being related by blood. Things had gotten to this point. Not only was Mom heartbroken and disappointed, but I was upset as well.I wanted to comfort Mom, but a
Zara didn't apply for postgraduate studies after finishing university but joined a company to work in her field of studies. It seemed that Chris was working in that company as well. Zara went there to be with her boyfriend.She was quite proper in everything else, and she hardly ever talked about her boyfriend. She had mentioned Chris in passing, saying that they had a deep bond as she had fallen for him since childhood. He was the only one she wanted to marry.Chris wasn't tall but not short either, probably around five feet ten. He had a simple haircut and wore glasses with golden rims. They seemed to have thick lenses, indicating that it was a prescription. Chris appeared courteous but somewhat aloof.This was the first time I met him, but something seemed off.A normal man would be warm and friendly when meeting the close friends of his girlfriend, but Chris gave off an indifferent vibe. It was as if he were detached from everything, as if there were an invisible barrier betwee
As I was brooding over the matter, someone suddenly appeared and stood by our table.Everyone, except for Chris, was stunned.When I saw the person's face, I couldn't catch my breath and ended up choking. I started coughing badly.Why couldn't I even have a peaceful meal? He came uninvited. How shameless could he get?Colin tightened his grip on my hand under the table suddenly, the frustration on his face evident."Felix? Well, what a coincidence meeting you here. If I wasn't aware of your usual aloof demeanor, I'd think you had followed Colin here." Zara was quick with her words and did not spare his pride. She made Chris, who was concentrating on his food, give her a few strange looks.Felix's appearance successfully diverted Chris' attention from the food to Zara.With such obvious sarcasm, I couldn't believe Felix couldn't hear it. She might as well have accused him of being a stalker.Yet, Felix calmly replied as if he hadn't heard anything, "What a coincidence, indeed. I
Colin swiftly extended his arm to protect my head, so Felix's hand landed on Colin's arm. His expression turned dark immediately.Zara couldn't help but laugh out loud.Even Chris' eyes had a hint of amusement in them.Felix shook his head again dismissively as he said with a small laugh, "You little rascal."His doting tone gave me goosebumps all over.I had known him for 20 years. Even during his sweetest time with Lilac, he never spoke to her in such a tone.Would someone change so much after being beaten once? Shawn must have beaten him too hard.Feeling uncomfortable, I shifted slightly toward Colin. He was already very close to me since he was cooking for me, but with my movement, I ended up in his embrace.When I realized I was too close and tried to move away a little, it was too late. Colin raised an eyebrow as he deepened his smile and pulled me closer.Felix paused for a moment before smiling suddenly and lifting his head to speak to me. "Lulu, Aunt Harper said you
