33 Chapter 33: What he wanted for breakfas (1/2)
It was still dark outside when Laurice woke up the next day. She initially thought that she would not be able to sleep a wink due to last night's 'incident' but surprisingly, she had one blissful sleep. Thanks to her ability to sleep without effort anytime, anywhere, but more so, for the fact that she had apparently exhausted herself yesterday. She felt her energy was depleted from the physical and mental torture that she had just gone through that her body automatically shut down last night when she laid down in bed.
But the best part of all is that, she actually had a really wonderful dream last night! It has been so long since she had a sweet dream although she could hardly recall the rest of the details of that particular dream, she knew exactly that she had slept well indeed. She woke up with a bright and radiant face and she felt utterly invigorated.
'If it's because of that gorgeous man last night, then she thought that what better way to repay the deed than the thought of making him breakfast.'
But the moment she crawled out of bed, memories of last night's hot encounter flashed past her mind. 'Shoot!' She was startled out of her reverie that her cheeks begun blushing. Laurice was feeling giddy by the sudden rush of emotions that flooded her mind and body as her heart started racing.
'If it can be counted as an intimate encounter then, how the he*l is she supposed to face the guy today?!'
No. It was an accident.
She needed to convince herself that last night was indeed an accident.
'We're both mature people, let's not be petty towards something so trivial. So what if they almost did it? It was only physical attraction and it's normal for people especially of opposite sex to desire and conquer the flesh.'
She paused for second to console herself as if convincing herself that they did nothing wrong at all late last night but upon repeating the words in her head, she was momentarily shocked from her ultimate realization.
Bloody hel*!
'They almost did the deed!?!'
Damn.
Laurice thought that she and Sid indeed almost had se* last freaking night!
Was it pure attraction that pushed themselves to such heights? No. It was basically driven by lust.
Laurice closed her eyes for a moment as she pondered. She was getting frustrated with herself for being so reckless. She screamed inwardly while pulling her hair ends from her scalp and with her long disheveled hair, she scolded herself mercilessly.
How can she be so stupid?
She was not an easy woman.
She does not crave se*!
But the truth really hurts, she almost gave herself to a man she had just met! To a total stranger! In fact, she almost gave herself willingly to the man himself! Her first experience was almost out of wed-lock!
She kept repeating the phrases in her head hoping to put some sense back on her brain. From today onwards she reckon that if there is one word that she hated perhaps, then that is none other than the letters that spelled 'almost.'
...
Laurice has been preserving her chastity for her husband-to-be but not only did she almost gave it away without a thought, she actually did it with a man who wasn't even her boyfriend in the first place. She shuddered when she thought she almost had a one-night stand with a complete stranger.
One night.
Laurice somehow could not make herself believe that Sid was the type of man who would indulge in such extreme se*ual affairs.
He seemed pretty decent in her eyes that she was even getting comfortable in his presence.
'That's right.'
If it's any consolation, then she was glad and grateful enough that she was intimate with a decent man and not just any random guy with a suspicious background.
Laurice felt a brief sense relief with the thought and was soon busy preparing herself mentally on how to deal with a man she almost slept with but ultimately felt defeated in the end.
'Whatever!'
She would not care anymore.
'What's done is done already.'
She could not alter the past anymore.
Besides, they did not even kissed for goodness sake?!
Somehow, the thought made her even more gloomy and frustrated.
...
Not long after, the sound of her stomach grumbling could be heard audibly across the room.
She thought she might as well cook breakfast this early than do any of her usual routines first since she had guests around.
