The elders were good but they knew and close to Nick, she worried that they would babbled. She was pretty sure, they were going to tease her more. she concluded to remove the elder from her list.
After calculating pros and cons, She decided to discuss hee dilemma with Mo couple. Mo couple had a food stall near her university bus stop. On second day she caught bus back home, she missed the bus so she had to wait for the next one which was 20 minutes later. While waiting, She was hungry and was attracted by aroma from nearby food stall. The aroma led her to a dimsim small shop which sold steam bun with various filling, xiumai, and few other thay she was not familiar witch. she bought two steam bun, one with taro filling and one with egg custard filling, They were so delicious and not expensive. Since that day become one of their loyal customers and build close bond with the owner
Two days after she discovered the note, After breakfast time, The Mo's food stall was quite.
"what happen dear ? do you have trouble ?" Aunty Mo sat next to Alice and gave Alice a glass of soy milk.
"a little"
"tell me, perhaps I can help"
" well, I have a friend, male one. he is very nice to me, treat me very well. He protects and looks after me. well, he is also good looking. He never bother when people addressed me as his girlfriend.
Mrs Mo smiled " are you wonder if he had mind on you ?". Alice nodded.
" Did he confessed to you" Mrs Mo asked another question
"Nope, But I found ambiguous clue, a note"
" Do you like him as well ?"
" I.. I think ..so" Alice blushed
Uncle Mo shook who was behind the counter was evedropping ther conversation. Finally, He joined the conversation "Miss, why don't you asked him ?"
" I am a girl. I don't think it's appropriate for me"Alice finally revealed her problem.
"well, don't say it bluntly, you have to..."
Uncle and aunty Mo gave her some trick.
a week past, Nick was back 5 days ago. she had headache because Uncle and aunty Mo kept persuading her to try their tricks.
Alice arrived home and sat on the sofa then she picked her handbag and took a book out and open that book.
She signed and ask her self silently " what should I do ?, He is smart amd cunning he will not fall on that tricks".
Nick came out from his room, he was off today. His mood was up and smiled when he saw alice sat the sofa reading a book, well not reading, she was was dazed while holding a book. He hadn't seen her since he was back, seemed she deliberately avoding him. He wonder what happened. When he realised she didn't noticed his presence, he had an idea to tease her. He walked quitely toward her and spoke sofly on her left ear " What are you looking at ?"
Alice was starlet and tried to close and hide her book, But too latehe was faster.
He was frozen while staring on his note.
After few second, He got his composure back and shifted his eyes at Her.
He sat next to alice "where did you get it from ?". he paused for few second and repeated his question with intimidating eyes.
"that day, I found it on the floor of your room" explained Alice. She didn't lied, it was true that it was on the floor when she picked it. Nick didn't convince, but it wasn't important, now he was enlightened about her behavior lately.
"Have you think about it ?"
"what ?" alice was bemused.
He closed his eyes briefly and look at her "so, do you like me?"
her heart pouding rapidly, and her face turn red. She run toward her room to hide from him.
Nick was amused seeing his white rabbit ran away. he managed to catch her wrist before she reached her room and pinned her on the wall. He pinched her chin "do you love me?"
Alice was stunned, she closed her eyes and told her self not to reveal her feeling.
"open your eyes and look at me".
Alice took a deep breath, open her eyes and met his dark brown pupil. "do you love me ?" Nick asked her softly.
She was hipnotised, her lips moved and a mumble sound came up "yes".
"say it clearly" he commanded her
"yes ...I like you" she clapped her hand on her mouth as soon as she realised. She was blushed.
" Don't be shy, holding up your feeling is not good for your health" He teased her.
"I like you too" Finally he confessed to her. He look at her cherry lips and kiss her. Her eyes was open widely, but it slowly closed as she felt a warm lips touch hers.
His initial intension was only a light quick kiss. But once he stated hers He wanted more so he gave another go and become greedy as she didn't push him, infact, she enjoyed that moment. They only stopped when they were out of breath.
