Chapter 163 - Talking about love (2/2)

Kris' heart smiled a bit. He sat down across Lena and ate his improved ramen. Keso already finished and he stared at Lena's pot of curry. She laughed and then passed it to him so he could eat it.

After their dinner, Lena and Kris head to the rooftop and practiced their dancing up there instead. They started with some faster music and then it became slow. Lena was tired from all the information today. She rested her head on Kris' as they slow danced. He did not say anything so she just continued as she stared to the night sky.

”I am going to go see Gary on Sunday night.”

Gary!! Kris was enjoying a nice moment with Lena and she had to say another man's name... ”Ok.”

”I won't be here when it's your mom's birthday... but I'll come back on Monday night. I am sure you will do fine though.”

”Keso will bring in another woman tomorrow's session so I can try again.” Kris spoke.

The music stopped and Lena lifted her head up. She parted from Kris and went to sit on the lounge chairs. Kris sat at the chair by her.

Lena looked up at the night sky. ”What do you usually do after your done with an assignment?”

”You mean like after I kill someone?”

Lena turned to face Kris, who was looking at her. She did not mean kill... but she guessed that in Kris' world, his assignment would be that. ”Yeah, something like that.”

”Go to the next one. You?”

She went back to stare at the starts. ”I don't have a next assignment after getting my revenge on Madam Yang. I guess.... I can finally date someone and get married!” Lena's voice raised from the excitement.

”Dating?”

Lena glanced back at Kris. ”Yeah. Meet someone and fall in love.” She sat up and pat his shoulder. ”Don't worry, you'll fall in love someday too.” She smiled at him.

He already met her... and he's already in love with her. It's not someday, it's today. ”How would I know if I am in love.” He played dumb.

Lena shrugged. ”It's different for everyone. But I would say.... Look at her for more 10 seconds, and if you can't, then it's a sign. Put your forehead on hers, then stare at her again. Don't blink. If you feel like your heart is racing and you feel... happy I guess, then she might be the one.

You would think about her every night, every day, every second of your life. You want to pamper her like the world is ending tomorrow.” Lena closed her eyes and put her hands on her cheeks and squeezed it as she squealed about romance.

”Your heart and mind are conquered by her. You just know without question that you are in love. But don't mindlessly fall in love, one-sided feelings can be painful. But if she likes you back, then you ask her out, and if she says yes then, you can go on dates, watch movies, eat cotton candy, and so many more things. Love is a wonderful feeling if that person loves you back.”

He stared at her eyes as it sparkled from the night light. She feels so happy, talking about love. And she was right, it would be more wonderful if she would love him back too.

He put his hand on her cheek and used his thumb to caress her lip where he bit her last night. Lena stopped daydreaming about romance and stared at Kris. 'What is he doing?'

”Does it hurt?” Kris asked, still rubbing his thumb gently on it.

”No.” Lena softly replied.

Kris' face went closer to her. She thought that he was going to kiss her but he blew on her lips.. comforting the small pain from the rubbing he was doing. She blinked.

Kris removed his hand from her face and stood up. ”I'll go get you some medicine.” He quickly left.

'What was that?' Lena touched her lips... 'Why was I expecting a kiss... Aiya.. my mind has gone dirty again.' She slapped her forehead gently.

Kris went down the stairs but stopped when he knew he was out of her sight.

'SHIT!' Kris screamed at himself. He was really tempted to kiss her but stopped himself before going any further. He blew on her lips and made an excuse. He does not have any f*cken medicine....
