She did not notice the door opening. The heavy drops of water is covering the four corners of the bathroom.
When she finished, she rolled the towel in her body and open the door.
She smells a familiar scent as if someone entered the room.
"Who are you? Come out!" She thought that it was Alex. But of course considering her feelings it still unethical for someone to just enter a room without her consent. And especially from the fact that she locked her door a while back.
Alex appeared behind the curtain and he just smile teasingly to Denise who is just wearing a towel.
"Alex! Don't you know how to knock the door?"
Who would know what's inside his mind?
"I'll be sleeping here." Without hesitation he said it.
"Are you out of your mind?" She hold her towel tightly guessing that Alex will grab it. If ever he do that it's no surprise for a pervert like him to act the she thinks.
She still does not believe that they're married.
"OK. I'll let you sleep here. If you show to me your so-called marriage certificate. How can I believe you. We're both strangers to each other." Actually that was the first she ever confronted anyone else in her life. She has the nerve now.
"I already leave a copy in your room before. If you're that interested find it." As he said it he lie down in bed while his legs crossed. He looks so perfectly handsome. A thick eyebrows, a thin-rossy lips, a masculine face, a brown eyes that is so seductive when stare and a body that every woman craves for.
"You!"She suddenly turned back and search for the marriage certificate in every corner of the room. She looks in the bookshelves, under the table, under the bed, in the cabinet,
"Why don't you dress yourself before searching or----" He paused and smile.
"Or?" She give him a look.
"Or you're acting that way to get my attention?" Alex walked closer to Denise whose almost naked .
"Stop where you are. I'm warning you." She tried to resist.
He did not say a word but his presence makes Denise feel nervous.
He pulled her towel and pushed her on the bed. Then, he stares at her body. The light is off but he can still her radiant skin.
"Get off me!" She tried to resist but Alex is so strong.
While holding her arms, he kissed her intimately.
"Don't worry I will not do anything. I will just sleep here." And he whispered in her ears.
He covered her body with the blanket.
She did not mind him anymore. Instead, she stoop up and look for her clothes. Only she realized that she has no clothes anymore. Clarisse forgot to wash them.
"Why?" Alex asked her when she tried to look for something to wear.
"I have no clothes to wear." Her voice became sweet.
Alex who is just lying on the bed looked at her from head to toe.
"No problem. I'll ask Secretary Ross to accompany you to buy your clothes tommorow." Alex said.
"Huh? Uhm. Thank you." And she lie down beside him.
He noticed Denise lying down. He remember that she took a bath before he enter the room.
"Your hair is still wet do you really want to get sick?" He's still calm but there is a concern in his voice.
She's careless and didn't even notice that her hair is wet. But she's really sleepy and wanted to close her eyes not minding Alex anymore.
He just remembered what Dr. John said to him.
