“It should be fine as long as no one finds out right?” He looked back at me while I held his shirt. I can’t get Quincy involved in this. Knowing him- actually it’s because I don’t know him, anything can happen. He’s too unpredictable!

“Why the sudden change of mind?” My hasty decision made him more suspicious. He had stopped in his path and began to look at me in attempts to see through me. He turned around and extended his hand to reach my cheek but before he could come in contact with me I spoke.

“I-I thought of an idea!” He paused as I continued, “I can just work here!” He retreated his hand.

“Work?”

“Yes. I mean if I work here I can stay here as payment right? I’m sure my guardian won’t mind that either but just in case, let's not tell him.” I fiddled with my thumbs.

Yohan didn’t say anything for a few seconds. He kept his eyes on me as if he was analyzing something.

“No.” He gave his answer bluntly, “There is no reason for you to work here. That would be very weird. Having your little brother’s best friend work for you as a maid.”

“Asking your little brother’s best friend to live with you is very strange too.”

He closed his eyes and sighed, clearly frustrated, “What if I say there is a reason for my offer?” He opened his forest green eyes and looked at me.

“A reason?” I thought about it and slowly brought my arms up in a cross formation above my chest, “You don’t mean…?”

He looked confused for a moment that it clickled to him, “No!” His eyes shaked, “Absolutely not! I’m not that kind of a person! God! What do you take me for!?”

“Oh.” I brought down my arms, “What other reason can there be other than you wanting my body?”

He closed his eyes in embarrassment, “I said I’m not that kind of a person.” He walked towards the sofa and sat down, “There is a reason. I will tell you about it. Very soon.”

“Why not now?”

“I just need some time to think how I will tell you. But I will tell you. For sure.”

I puffed my cheeks a little in curiosity, “Okay.”

“I won’t call your guardian but there is no need for you to work. Just stay here as a guest.”

Oh thank God he won’t call Quincy. I just don’t have to tell him about me staying anywhere else. As long as I don’t stay anything it’s not lying but still…

I looked at Yohan.

Staying here as a guest is too much! It’s more than just kindness. I wonder what’s the reason? I mean what possible thing could it be?

I can’t think of anything at all!

“Listen…” I took a deep breath and started, “Staying as a guest here is too much. I’ll feel too burdened if I’m just free loading. If nothing else, let me help around the house.”

He thought about it, “Help around the house? There’s nothing much to do though.”

“I can cook! You probably don’t eat much home cooked food since you’re a busy working adult right!?”

“I eat breakfast and dinner at home and I cook myself.” He smiled, “If anything, I’d say I’m a pretty good cook.”

“...”

Wow… Okay! Something else! “I can clean the house!”

“I have someone who comes and does that every now and then.” He folded his arms and rested against the couch’s back. I could tell he was waiting for my next argument so that he could shoot it down too.

I bit my lower lip in frustration.

“I can iron clothes.”

“The lady who cleans does that too.”

I feel like banging my head somewhere.

“Then what! Isn’t there anything you need help with!?!!”

“Hmmm?” He placed his right hand fingers on his chin as a playful gesture, “There isn’t anything I really need help with but I guess it might help if someone else cooked.”

“Yes!! I’ll do that!”

“I’m an early riser.”

“No worries! I can do it! Just don’t tell anything to Ruda or Quincy!”

“Quincy?”

“My guardian.”

“Ah.” He grinned, “Deal.”

***

I woke up at 7 am with a fuzzy head. I looked around at the unfamiliar furniture as I sat up on an unfamiliar bed in an unfamiliar room.

That’s right.

I’ve started living with Yohan.

I got out of bed and went to the bathroom to freshen up. Then I went down to the kitchen to make breakfast since my room was on the second floor.

In his house. There were four bedrooms and two bathrooms. A living room, a store room and a kitchen. It was a bit big for a person living alone. I wonder if Ruda or his parents come to visit? Maybe the extra rooms are for them?

What should I make? There were a lot of options but I had no idea what Yohan liked to eat.

Maybe I should ask him? He should be up by now.

I began to walk towards his room with the spatula in my hands then stopped. Wait. Which one is his room? I stared at the three doors that looked the same while I stood in the living room.

“Sure.” I heard his voice, “Let’s arrange the meeting at 9 am. I’ll meet with you before I go to the office.” It was coming from the room in the middle.

He must be up and ready if he’s already talking about business!

Without thinking much I ran towards the room with only one thing in my mind. That I should hurry and ask him so I can start cooking.

But a serious piece of advice for myself.

Knock before you enter any room, especially when you’re not in your own house.

In a hurry I just went ahead and opened the door and dashed in. But as soon as I did I froze in my stance.

The room was steamy, the floor was wet and Yohan was standing there naked outside the shower cubicle. His phone was sticking against the mirror but now was on standby. His call had finished.

For a moment there was an expression of surprise on his face but it immediately turned into a mischievous one. He smirked and walked towards me while I stood in my place pale as hell and was trying my best to keep my eyes on his face but the devil was forcing them to look down.

It was a very difficult battle where I would look up but the demon inside me forced my eyes to look down and my gaze would reach till his abs.

Oh my God! What nicely toned abs…

“Is something wrong?” Yohan bent down to meet my height. His face was a few centimeters away from mine. Water was still dripping down his hair and I could see it in detail. There was light steam coming from his freshly washed skin and I could almost feel his hot skin, “You’re holding a spatula.” He glanced at it, “Perhaps you came to ask me what I want to eat?”

“Y-y-y-yes!!!”

Kill me.

Why did I stutter so much?

He snickered and my cheeks flushed. In order to avoid any more embarrassment I turned around, “I’ll make pancakes!” I declared and ran out shutting the door behind me.

I ran straight to the kitchen and almost tripped over nothing as Yohan’s naked body flashed before my eyes. I sat down and held my head behind the kitchen counter.

My already flushed cheeks turned to an even darker shade of red. It felt as if all the blood was rushing there all together.

I shook my head in order to get the image out of my head but it was of no use.

His tone skin, his abs, his steamy emitting body kept flashing in front of me. On top of that, even though I did my best and didn’t look down I did see it when I entered the bathroom.

My heart began to pound in my chest.

Good luck to his girlfriend…

I lazily stood up, bit my lower lip and tried to focus on cooking.

God!

He’s so big...

I shook my head again.

Focus!!

***

I spent most of my day in the clouds and barely focused on any lectures. Usually if I zoned out Ruda would bring me back but that rarely happened. Usually it was me who slapped him back to the lecture hall. God! He rarely focuses. It seems to me like he was being forced to study by his family.

I thought about it and come to think of it, I don’t know anything about his family but well, I sighed, it’s the other way around too.

I looked at the empty seat beside me when the last lecture ended and I stood up to leave the department.

I wonder why he didn’t come today? No matter how much he hates studying and lectures he rarely ever skipped class.

Maybe I’ll ask Yohan. We live together now after all.

…

A shy smile spread across my face.

We live together!

I felt giddy and ticklish all over, especially in my tummy.

“You seem to be in a good mood.” It was at that moment.

At that moment I paused as soon as I heard the voice. That awfully familiar voice that came from in front of me.

Slowly, I raised my head and a person came into view.

A tall man.

He was wearing casual clothes and had a pretty unreadable expression on his face even though he was smiling. His skin as smooth and pale as porcelain while his hair contradicted his skin tone and was pitch black like his eye color yet his lips were full of color and body nicely built.

“Quincy…” I said his name in surprise, “Why-?”

“Why am I here?” He said then pointed at the child sleeping while sitting on his right arm, her head rested on his shoulder. A little girl, ten years of age. The most important person of my life, “Nena wanted to see you.”

“You’ve never brought her here before. No matter how much she wanted to see me. I always had to go over.”

“Yes well.” He scratched the tip of his nose, “Today the mutt isn’t with you. So it’s fine.”

His words made me a little angry, “I told you not to call Ruda a mutt!”

He narrowed his eyes, “Oh but he is a mutt. You just don’t know.”

“He’s not!! Stop saying rude stuff to other people! You two never even met! Why do you hate him so much?”

“...” He looked at Nena who had just woken up and was lazily opening her eyes, “He hates me the same.”

“Wha-?! What makes you think that?”

Could it be? They’ve met before and neither of them are telling me on purpose?

“You’ll find out eventually.” He said calmly as Nena looked around.

I gritted my teeth in anger. I’ll never understand him!

“Hey Nena.” Let’s just focus on my little world.

Nena looked at me and smiled brightly, “Ma!”
