Chapter 158 - Old love (1/2)

Kris only slept for a bit but it was the best sleep he had in years. He woke up before Lena could find him with her. He closed the door and locked it.

It was still early and Lena went to sleep late last night so he let her sleep some more. He called James to tell him about the situation with Andy staying at Lena's house and how SHE decided to stay over at his apartment instead. James rather had Lena with Kris than Andy.

James replied back that he will notify Diane that Lena would not be coming into the office today. Kris' house had no food and Lena would definitely want to eat something when she wakes up. Kris had also not eaten dinner at all yesterday so he was preparing to go out to go buy some stuff.

On the other hand, Andy woke up too. He had several text messages from Eva asking where he went so early in the morning. Andy texted her back and said he had an emergency at work but he will stay over at her place again tonight.

The clothes that Lena gave to him, none of them had work clothes. However, he had several of them at his office. He woke up and prepared his morning. He texted Lena but she did not reply. He wondered if she went to work already.

Andy called her office, but Diane said that she won't be coming in today. Andy just sent a text message to Lena to say that he was ready to talk to her about the situation, that he was ready for the truth.

He went to get a cold drink from Lena's fridge. When he opened it, he was confused about why Lena put canned food and junk food in her fridge. Wouldn't the chips go stale? Andy ignored what he saw and just poured himself a cold drink.

He went to the hallway to get out the door but tripped over Lena's plenty of slippers in her house. Why did she need so many? Andy picked all but one pair and tossed them into the shoe closet.

He was about to close it, but a pair of black leather shoes caught his eyes. He grabbed it, even though it was covered by other nonsense. The leather shoe was a highly expensive shoe that Lena would not be able to afford so easily. It was also slightly used... so it was not a gift. Could Lena be seeing someone?

Andy smiled. It's a good thing to move on from old love. He put the shoe back where he found it.

”Old love...” Was his love for Eva already old?

He walked out the door and locked it. He had the spare key with him but he will give it back to Lena later when they talk.

Andy went down the elevator and head out to his car. He stopped walking when he thought he saw Kris Li droving off in a car. Andy blinked. He must have seen that wrong. Well, it was possible. This place was higly expensive and one of the most lavishing places to live for young adults. He still wondered how Lena was to afford such a place.

Even he got denied to live here. Andy shrugged off his thoughts and went to his car.

Lena slowly opened her eyes. She did not get up until way later and it was very bright outside already. She sat up and stretched her hands and yawn.

”Ow!” Lena touched the bottom of her lips. 'Oh what???!'

She could feel a small spot of hardened blood on her lips. When did this happen? She covered her eyes with both of her hands. She recalled that she had a very intense make-out session with a steaming hot man in her dream.

Lena's leg squirm from the intimate memory. She does not remember his face... but did she bit her lips? Was her dream so intense she bit her own lips?

Lena blushed. 'This is so embarrassing.' She woke up and looked at the clock. 'F*CK!' She was late for work!

She called Diane but she told Lena that James already informed her that Lena would not come to the office today. Diane already rescheduled everything for Lena.

Lena got up and check if her door was still locked. It was. She could hear some noises from outside so Kris must be awake already.

Even though Kris had no shampoo or body wash, he had spare toothbrushes in the guest room. Lena gently brushed her teeth and combed her hair. She tried to carefully wipe the stain from her lips. Luckily, it disappeared and she was left with a red spot on her lips.

She changed to a new pair of clothes and then walked out of the room. Lena walked to the living room and could smell a familiar scent. She walked to the kitchen and sat on the dining table as she looked at what Kris was doing.

Kris turned around with a dashing smile. ”Morning! Or should I say afternoon.”

”Hi.” Lena replied with no expression. There was definitely somet bright lights coming out of Kris today. Lena wondered who was going to die today.
