Chapter 8

  • Slamming the door shut I cross my arms over my chest,my face fluster in anger.
  • "Where to?," I growl in a low voice staring at the screen infront of me.
  • "To....," my eyes widen abruptly I feel his breath touch the side of my cheek skin which makes me to stick back to my seat.
  • He has leaned forward, away from his seat his face just few inches away from mine. Moving forward he lifts his left arm high trying to get the seat belt. I sat there without moving an inch because if I do so surely my lips will be on that cheek of his, I observed his side features, his expression in consideration and those sharp jawline which makes my hand itchy to caress it, he is so close to me that I my nostrils were hit my his minty scent and I could even see a small birthmark on his ivory skin.
  • My heart beat rised when his breath hit my my skin,pulling the seatbelt he buckles it as he got back to his seat, leaving me with a racing heartbeat and hot skin, I continue to stare at the front view not daring to look at him .
  • "Shopping,"he utters by buckling his seat belt.
  • "Shopping,Why?,My expenses are already packed,"I groan in a low voice looking at him.
  • "Your boss is soo sweet that he is gonna pay for you, "he chuckles at his own sense of humour but I just glare at him.
  • "Not sweet,sour as a rotten lime," growling I sat back staring at an empty space.
  • "Whatever you say," he mumbles under his breath but I heard it.
  • Living in a life of budget I was surely surprised when the car came to an halt infront of the high branded shopping mall.
  • Getting out of the car I followed Mr Han when he handed over the keys to the person in charge of parking.
  • We stroll in, my memory drive back to the time when Dylan took me shopping here for my birthday and I tried to pick the cheapest dress but there wasn't any.
  • Stepping on the escalator we went up to the second floor, Mr Han walks forward and I follow him behind,he steps inside a huge glass tinted showroom.
  • "Get her a dress for a date,"he instructs the young girl who welcomed us.
  • "Any specific details sir," she asks politely.
  • Mr Han turns around and he looks at me who was standing behind his tall figure, his gaze moving up and down like he is examining me which makes me to frown at him as he runs his hand through his hair.
  • "Something in white,"he suggests ,a smile making it's way on his lips.
  • "Yes sir, follow me madam," I follow her as she told me and we walk into a room where many dresses were arranged according to different preferences.
  • "May you try this ma'am?,"another girl walks in later with a knee length A line frock while the other girl who was with me is searching for an outfit.
  • She moves her arm forward holding it for me to take. Taking the dress from her arm I look at it, my lips twitches up to a smile, the dress is simple and beautiful like what I was looking for.
  • "Your boyfriend chose it," she informs with a glint of joy.
  • "Boyfriend," I repeat furrowing my eyebrows in confusion.
  • Ohh...Mr Han
  • He just asked that girl to look for a dress but now he was the one who has chosen it...why is he too difficult to understand?
  • "No,no he isn't my boyfriend" shrugging my shoulders at them I walk into the changing room.
  • The frock landed right over my knees, the material is white in colour with huge and small black spots in some pattern, I inserted the broad black belt into it's loops around the waist and ended it with a bow on the right. Keeping a step behind I look at my reflection, the frock had a notch collar and few buttons making its way till the waist. I step out and the two girls told that the dress looks pretty on me. Before I could leave the room the girl who brought the dress gave me a small blue velvet circular box.
  • "Your boyfriend told....,"
  • "He is not my boyfriend,"I groan jokingly trying not to make them feel bad but hearing him as my boyfriend is driving me crazy.
  • "Mr Han told me to give it to you,"she smiles.
  • "Ohh,"I open the box and my eyes widen in awe.
  • It is a pair of earrings, to be honest it looks spectacular but it seems to be damn expensive ,he doesn't have to spend soo much to buy me something just to up an act for him .
  • Closing the box I walk out ,Mr Han was sitting on the sofa using his phone, walking towards him I stood infront him, looking at my feet he gazes up by pushing the phone into his pant pocket.
  • "I don't want this ," I said moving the box forward.
  • "Why not?,"he asks looking at me.
  • "I just don't like when others spend on me," I blurt shaking the box by gesturing with my eyes saying him to take it but he didn't make any action, he just stood infront of me his eyes fixed on me.
  • "I'm not others Ms Anna," he speaks his voice cold and those orbs digging into me.
  • Okay,is he getting mad at me...like seriously I agreed to help him out with his date but he is being angry just because I rejected a gift.
  • "I'm sorry Mr Han I....,"I place the box on the sofa "I cannot accept it,".
  • "Ms Anna,"he keeps a step forward which made me to step back automatically "You are really something," he says coldly as he keeps another step forward and again I step back.His eyes are fixed on me which makes me to feel awkward and my legs were becoming wobbly when he keeps stepping forward.
  • I stop when my back hit the moving track table of the handbags, placing my palms on table I lean backwards when he stood right infront of me and my body was just rooted there not being able to do anything. His closeness makes my heartbeat rise, he bends forward that his face comes in contact with the right side of my cheek,his skin touching my ears and his breath hitches on my skin which makes my adereline rush through my spine.
  • My mind gone blank and his closeness makes my cheeks heat up , suddenly I feel my hair fall free and some strands fall over my shoulders which brings me back to my consciousness.
  • "Now it's perfect,"he smiles standing straight and walks away inserting my hairband in his pocket leaving me puzzled.
  • He just spoke coldly and now he is like....why is he soo weird, did his mom pick him up from mars or what.
