319 Pleasant Surprise? (1/2)

If Xiu had not brought up the topic of Dylan's relationship with Cali, Dylan would have never thought about it himself. But since she did, it made Dylan constantly think about the whys in his life. For instance, why he kept Cali's photos? Why did he always pay attention to her? Why did he know about her likes and dislikes?

And at the moment, why was he so excited and nervous to meet her?

Right now, Dylan was standing outside the door of Cali's suite with sweaty hands which he kept rubbing on his pants. It was really unknown to him why he was feeling so weird. It wasn't the first time he was gonna see her. Then what was up with the anticipation bubbling in his heart? And what the hell was wrong with him?

He knocked at the door and waited calmly. Well, at least he looked calm from his face but the turmoil in his heart was another story.

The door opened after five minutes and since his eyes were stuck on the floor, what came to his view were bare feet, he slowly looked up. His eyes trailed upward at those bare legs and moving upward his eyes darkened a bit when he realized that the person at the other side of the door was only wearing a bathrobe.

”Dylan? What are you doing here?” asked Cali as she looked at Dylan looking so dapper and that too so early in the morning.

Dylan moved his eyes away from the drop of water that was dripping down her neck as it disappeared in the valley between her breasts. ”I told you, I'll see you in the morning.”

”Dylan, it's 7 am.” Cali thought of telling him the time since she thought he was really here mistakenly.

”I know,” said Dylan keeping his eyes on her face. 'I know what the time is, I just don't know why I chose to come at this time!' he was cursing himself inwardly but kept his face straight.

”Forget it, come inside first,” said Cali as she moved out of the way to allow him to come inside. Dylan followed her inside silently while looking around the suite room. Cali went to her room and soon brought out the painting packed really well. ”Here...” she gave it to him.

Dylan eyed her for a moment before saying, ”Are you telling me to get lost?”

”What?” Cali frowned at his words.

”If that's not your intention, then this can wait. You should...” he looked over at her before clearing his throat, ”You should dress up first.”

Cali didn't know why he was acting so weird. But she still nodded her head, ”Okay, then you wait here. I'll be right back.” She went back to the bedroom to get dressed. Ying was still passed out on her bed with no care in the world. Cali didn't think it was nice to wake her up so she let her sleep as if it was her own room.

After dressing up she came out to find Dylan still sitting where she left him earlier. As he noticed her presence, he looked over and got up saying, ”You didn't have breakfast, right? Let's grab something to eat.”

”Nothing. I just want to thank you for bringing over my parcel,” replied Dylan with a smile as he walked towards her.

”Oh, so you want to treat this delivery woman to a meal as your way of thank you?” retorted Cali. ”When did you get so formal?”
