Chapter 167 - Cuteness everywhere (2/2)
”Collin, I need you to buy me two tickets to a 3-day cruise vacation.”
”Are you going on vacation?”
”With for my mom.” Kris replied. ”Have it for the following Thursday to Saturday so she would be home to attend the Women's Fashion show on Sunday.”
”Alright.”
”And... don't pick something too far from here. She does not like long traveling.”
”Will do.”
Kris hung up the phone. He put on his shoes, grabbed his wallet and phone, and went down to Lena's apartment. He knocked on her door and she looked at the peephole to see who it was. Her eyes screamed and her heart cried...
'Why is he dressed so cute! Too much sweetness in the morning for me!' Lena was deciding to leave him outside so she doesn't pounce on the young man once he walked in. She mustered up her courage, slowly locked her heart and threw the key on the ground... just for now.
She opened the door and put on her usual morning smile. Kris looked at Lena and she was wearing a high waisted denim short with a plain nude t-shirt tucked in it. But, what really caught his eyes was her two low ponytails. She never did her hair like that before.
He touched his nose and turned around. ”Be right back.. I forgot my phone.” Her overload of cuteness everywhere was too much for him.
He speed-walked to the elevator as Lena watched the crazy man leave. 'He's holding his phone...in his hand...' Lena was going to tell him but he abruptly left.
Lena left the door unlocked because she knew he will be back soon once he figured out that he had his cellphone with him all along. She must have woken up too fast and he did not fully wake up. She went back to the kitchen and prepared the ingredients.
Lena put on a simple pink apron and took out the measuring utensils. She heard a knock on the door.
”It's not locked!” She yelled.
Kris walked in and she was EVEN MORE CUTE than before. How can one have such powers?!
Lena looked up to him and sarcastically spoke. ”So... you found your phone?” She laughed.
Kris went shy. SHE KNEW! How embarrassing... she knew he was holding his cellphone all along and did not tell him. She was an evil... evil and cute woman.
Kris rubbed his neck. ”Yeah... Didn't get much sleep.” He lied.
”Oh? I didn't too.” Lena walked up to him and handed his apron to him. He grabbed it. Thankfully it was just something normal, a blue apron.
”Are you tired? You can go nap and we can do this later... baking can't be that hard right?” Kris didn't know she did not sleep well.
Lena shrugged. ”Naw... I am good.” How can she sleep after seeing him wearing an apron...
In her mind, her devil Lena was running to grab the key to her locked heart while the angel Lena was pulling the devil Lena from doing that. Fresh love was so hard...
