Chapter 44: Bubbles just went away

Akira didn't want to overthink as her heart was telling her to believe that Raymond had the room temperature increased for her. But her mind was smart enough and was not letting her heart to roam around in some fantasy world. But no matter how hard her mind tried, her heart didn't give up. She was trapped inside a makeshift bubble of happiness. So while they were waiting for the lift to come in the lift lobby, Akira popped the question,

"Umm... sorry I don't want to sound like I am intruding into your personal space but are you ok? I mean healthwise?"

Raymond was already irritated because of the behavior of the receptionist. He didn't want Akira to find out that he increased the temperature of the room because of her. He did not want to look like he was trying hard to get her. Rather he didn't want to look like he was even trying. So he retorted back immediately and asked,

"I am feeling perfectly fine but why do you ask?"
