Bab 313: Fire vs Fire

"What's wrong Akira?"

"Nothing", she said and tapped on the beads of sweat forming on her face even though the car was air-conditioned.

"Then why are you sweating?"

"I don't know. Must be all that adrenaline from the meeting", saying that she tried to pull her feet back from his lap.

But he held them tight and said,

"Relax, why are you so restless?"

"Restless !!! Who? Me? No way", saying that she tried to conjure up a fake giggle.

Seeing her getting this uncomfortable, he decided to stop teasing her and turned back and took a box out.

"What is it?"

He looked at her the moment she asked the question, but without even bothering to reply he took out a pair of white canvas shoes from the box and helped her to put the shoes on.

Then looking at her he said,

"You don't have to walk on eggshells anymore for me".

She had no words for this man never failed to surprise her with his simple acts of love.
