Chapter 93 - Number one or number two (2/2)
Lena left him. She grabbed her cellphone from the living room table and went to her room. She locked the door.
”Hey! What are you doing?” Kris called outside the door.
”I am calling Collin. I am locking myself in here so you don't attack me.”
”What did you think I took? An aphrodisiac drug?”
”That's what I would assume.”
”Lena, that kind of stuff doesn't work for me.” Kris laughed.
”I don't believe you.”
”Open the door. Look, I am perfectly fine. If the drug was an aphrodisiac drug, it would be in effect now.”
Lena slightly opened the door but she had her electric pen hidden behind her back. The was open just so one of her eyes could take a look at Kris. He was still wearing his navy suit from this morning.
”Are you feeling hot?” Lena asked.
”No.”
Lena opened the door completely and stared at Kris. He did look absolutely fine. His face was not red nor was he sweating. ”Why does that kind of stuff doesn't work on you?”
”A person who can't feel love won't have the desire to love.”
”Does this have to do with your...condition?”
Kris turned back and walked to the sofa. He sat down and did not reply. Lena walked over and sat on the floor in front of her laptop.
”You know… you always ignore me whenever I ask about that. You still haven't explained much from last time too. I know that you won't talk about it.” Lena pointed out.
Kris looked at her. Lena was sitting crisscrossed on the carpet. She was wearing a sky blue tank top and a nice cotton short. Her hair was still down. ”I don't trust you enough.” He answered.
This time, Lena looked at him. ”Well, I trust you.”
Kris let out a small chuckle. ”As your teacher, I will tell you not to trust people too easily.”
”As your student, I want to trust you.” Lena smiled. ”I will be the first one to trust you then, between us.”
She stared back at the laptop screen, and it was still running the phone number in the database. Lena took out her sketch pad and start sketching. Every so often, she would glance at Kris to see what he was doing.
'Is he not going to leave yet? Will I have to feed him dinner… I am hungry.' Lena was thinking if she should cook now or wait for Kris to leave.
She put down her sketchpad. ”Are you going to leave soon?”
Kris opened his eyes again. ”Yeah… Can I use your bathroom first?”
”Number one or number two?” Lena asked. It was important!
Kris rolled his eyes. He got up and head to the bathroom.
'Damn him! He better not number two… I am cooking soon!' Lena went back to sketching. Lena got her outline done. She glanced up from her work and Kris was not on the sofa. Lena got up and looked out to see if he had left yet. His shoes were still in the hallway.
Lena went to the bathroom. She tried the door and it was locked. ”Kris?”
No response. She tried to call him again. Lena pounded on the door. ”Are you okay? Say something.” She put her ear on the door. She heard a slight groan.
'Ugh!' She went to her room to grab the bathroom key. ”Hang on, I am opening the door. You better have your pants on!” The door opened and Lena saw Kris groaning on the floor.
