Love, Sex & Regrets

Part 5

What are you scared of 

They were both panting while lying down on the living room floor naked, after the intense sex they had when they get back from the club.

"Why you never ever wanted to do it in my place, I have a better floor you know" Daniel said

"Because I just like to be in my house or in my own bed immediately." She replied with her eyes closed

Daniel just smiled and shook his head then he stood up to go to the toilet. He picked up his shirt on the floor and throw it gently it to jinny's body cover it.

When he got back, he puts his pants on and sat down on the floor beside jinny whose still lying down.

"Are you asleep?"

Jinny moved her head a little.

"Tell me.... Are you still happy with your job at the cafe? Cause I can get you another job somewhere, You know that I'm not just a club owner right but an investor too, I can get you in, in some office job or whatever you want." he said very seriously.

Jinny took so long to response; she slowly opened her drowsy eyes looking at the ceiling.

"Whatever i want . . . I don't know what I want . . . I never knew what i wanted, I'm just— I'm just good at running away." She muttered

"What are you scared of . . . You can do so much better if just let yourself."

Jinny turned to her side facing him.

"Its okay . . . I'm okay . . . I like my job " she said her mouth curved in a drowsy half smile "I like the smell of the freshly-brewed coffee, the quiet and calm mornings, when beams of sunlight peaks inside the shop, I like cutting Mrs. Cellie's breads for her when her hand is shaking, and the small chats with Mr. Doyle about his war experiences, I like . . . I like—"

Then she just fell asleep

Daniel smiled and brushed her hair. Then he carried her to the bed.

Jinny woke up from the alarm on her phone, she got up and went to the toilet, she can still smell the beer on her mouth while brushing her teeth.

When she went out of her bedroom to make a coffee, she was surprised to see Daniel sitting in the living room.

"Hey, you're still here?"

"I was too tired and too sleepy to drive, I just slept here"

Jinny nodded "then why did you woke up? Its still too early"

"Headache"

"Did you found some aspirin?"

Daniel shook his head. Jinny grabbed her bag and took the aspirin from her small pouch and gave him water.

"Thanks."

"Well you can stay here and sleep more, as long as you want, I'm gonna go to work."

"Its fine, ill just go home so I can drop you to work."

"Just sleep some more you don't have to drop me."

Daniel moved his face closely to her, smiling

"You don't want me to go home?" he teased

"I'm just saying tha—"

Daniel cut her off and kissed her softly, but it was short.
