Chapter 70 - The Cockroach (1/2)

As we entered into my cabin, I took the seat and sat down where my table was. Stella was standing beside me. With my hand, I patted on my thɨġhs.

” What's that for?” She looked at me with confusion, wondering what was I saying.

” Sit on my ŀȧp.” I replied blankly with a straight face.

” What the hell!” She rumbled at me like a thunder storm.

” I'm serious. Our hands are locked so, it will be better if you sit on my ŀȧp.” Of course I wasn't joking with her. The closer we sit, the better it will be for our hands. My arm is already aching.

Stella's embarrassment was clearly visible on her face. She was blushing even after she sat down on my ŀȧp. When ever her eyes were roaming around, I was glancing her without her acknowledgment.

Kinda like a stalker.

” A-Am I heavy? M-Maybe I sh-should get down.” Stella stammer nervously while trying to get up from my ŀȧp.

” Relax. You're not that heavy okay. I wonder where all those food goes after they get through your mouth.” I replied back with a smirk.

Suddenly a knock came from the outside. It must be John. ” Come in.”

” Here's the locksmith. He's Robert.” John brought a guy with him who's younger than us probably. But after they came inside, John and the guy named Robert began to stare at us shamelessly as if we were doing something wrong or weird. Stella was on my ŀȧp even though they had entered there. Oh! Maybe that's why they're looking at us.

We got up from the seat and they noticed that our hands were locked with the handcuffs.

” How did-”

” Just open it and get lost.” I growled at the locksmith. John was silent the whole time. He kind of understood what had happened. Hearing my growl, Robert went silent instantly. He opened the lock very easily. It didn't took him much time. Finally we were free from that handcuff.

” I'll escort you outside.” John smartly came forward and took that guy out from my cabin. As soon they left, Stella let out a sigh of relief. The shameful moment was over.

” Ae. Time just passes so quickly. Personally I am not a big fan of winter. The cold weather never made me happy. But maybe this time, I will be enjoying it since I have someone to cuddle under my cover.

Few days had past after the handcuff incident. I was doing work in my cabin like the usual days. John entered there and stood in front of my table.

” What it is?”

” Yeah I remember that.”

” Are you going alone ?”

” I'll bring Stella with me. Thanks for the reminder. I'll have to inform her.”

I reached home on my usual time. Stella was already at the dining room, placing the food on the table. When our eyes met, she greeted me.

” Welcome back.”

” I'll go change my clothes then come for dinner.”

” Yeah sure.”

I got downstairs changing into a comfortable attire. Taking my chair out, I sat down with Stella.
