Burning Passion

CHAPTER 92: HIS SIZE, WHAT?

* * *

"Master, here's your coffee."

Roland handed him a brewed coffee he bought from a café at the intersection of this street.

"So… have you already texted, Miss Lindsey?"

"Yes."

"Really?" Roland's eyes spark. He glanced at his master with excitement. "So? What did she reply?"

"Nothing."

Roland dropped a jaw and blinked many times. "Why is it nothing?"

Theo glanced at his assistant, raising a left brow. By the urge of Roland, he sent Nikki a message, but it was more like blackmailing to his ends. "She prefers not to reply. Can I force her if she doesn't like to?" his answer.

He began regretting asking his assistant to come along. Now Roland is like the devil side who ridicules him, and the angel one who encourages him at the same.

"Wait, Master… is that Miss Nikki?"

They parked across the road from the apartment building. He followed Roland's snout pointing in a direction that made him drop his mouth discovering how Nikki wearing too-short shorts and a crop top that showed her navel. He has been staring at Nikki's slender waist, but he wondered why she hasn't gone farther yet.

"What are you doing?" he asked. He noticed he actually drove the car slowly.

"We followed, Miss Nikki."

"This is stalking!"

"You already stalk her."

"Which part am I?" he would deny, even he flew 7 floors just to follow her and take a peek at Mrs. Lindsey's room.

"Um… something like taking her photos secretly? Following her, sneaking to see her? Right, master?"

Theo glances at Roland. 'How did he know about that?' Did Roland figure out he followed Nikki last evening before the parking area encounter? But the stolen shots were Roland's doing. He acted like paparazzi last night. Now he blackmailed him to show the photos to Jeremy.

He doesn't mind anyway when originally they wanted Nikki for his project and it was his job to approach her, but he wants to happen it as a natural encounter like last night.

He was typing on his phone when Roland hit the brake.

"Roland? What are you doing?" he blurted out.

"There's a car whose driver drives recklessly! He almost got us."

"Oh, shit!"

"What happened?"

"It was sent!" Shocks registered his face. 'That was a mistake message!' he screamed in his head.

"What do you mean, master?"

Theo showed his phone. After Roland read his message, he burst out laughing.

"Stop it." He glares.

"I can't believe you are such a pervert, Master!" Roland laughs while smashing the steering wheel.

"It's not my fault! It was yours!" he blames Roland.

"Hey, master, I was just driving here! And why do you text Miss Nikki that way?"

"I deleted one word to change what I wanted to tell her, but I accidentally hit the send button after you suddenly stopped."

"Now, miss Nikki thought you are a pervert."

"How can I change my impression on her after this?" he worries for real. His message will make Nikki upsets at him.

But Roland just laughs at him, annoys him even more.

"Would you shut up?"

"Eh? But I didn't mean to… oh, did she reply now, master?" he asked after the phone vibrated.

"Yeah. She's angry."

"Ah! You should apologize."

"I must. But how should I do it when I am keeping my identity? Ah! Now it turns complicated! I won't bring you next time." He threatens him.

'Heh!' Roland plays an amusing smile. His master appears like a teenager; having his puppy love it seems as he's worrying like an idiot.

"This is your fault."

"Eh? Why did it become my fault? I came to cheer for you! But, Master… you should now apologize to Miss Nikki."

"Hmm…" he was contemplating how to do that when he was only stalking at her.

Now, they were waiting like 10 minutes when they spotted Nikki coming out in the store.

"Get out," he told Roland, pushing him to the door.

"Eh? Why master?" it confused him. Is this how he was punished?

"I will take the car. I will get you later."

"Huh? Wait, what would that mean?!"

"Hurry, Roland!"

"O-okay!" He was kicked out of the car. Helpless, Roland suits himself to watch his master make a U-Turn and park all of a sudden.

'Eh???' He was like watching a live drama. A lead actor chasing for the lead actress.

"What the heck!" He burst out laughing.

It happens Nikki splashes his master with hot liquid. It looks like a newly brewed coffee.

"Damn... how unlucky you are, master." he's laughing but the next scenes amuses him. "Hmm… in fairness, Miss Nikki looks sorry." Roland is like an idiot talking to himself.

"Ahhhh… master your car!"

Roland saw when a police patrol stopped behind the car and then a tow mobile followed. That was fast respondents. But he could see that Nikki seems to negotiate with the police officer and looks like she solves the problem. But then…

'Eh? Where are they going?'

"Hey, Master! Don't leave me here!" Roland was waving his arms, now feeling helpless being left alone. "Are they going on a date?"

When his Master soaked with coffee? It appears to be an excellent move. His master successfully takes Nikki somewhere. "Ah, whatever! Enjoy, master!" Roland salutes to the car who takes a left turn somewhere.

He crossed the road and walked towards the convenience store, bought something he could eat while waiting. When his master is done, he will text him for sure.

Meanwhile, at the store…

Theo froze from Nikki's query. He tried to process it in his head.

'Is she asking my body size? Or she meant the size of his?' He is having a light head.

'Ahh!! What am I thinking?!'

Looks Nikki realized something...

He sees when her cheeks flushed and look at him with embarrassment plastered on her face. He tears a secret smile.

She finally realized there is something wrong with what she's asking him.

He cannot help to smirk. She was too cute when she blushed. In which, he also put a different meaning to what she is asking him. He panics a bit if Nikki meant about that size.... it made him bathed with cold sweat.
