WHAT IS LOVE

chapter 3

Son came home right after work brought a gift for Alex. Alex was busy sleeping at that moment so he decides to wait in her room. Tilting towards her his body blocking the light he wanted to take advantage to kiss her in her sleep. He was so close that she caught his sent opened her puffy eyes “what are you doing, Son?” she said looking at him and waiting for an explanation.

“ ahh, nothing I thought I saw something crawling on your face. That's all”

Alex jumps from the bed going crazy shaking herself screaming loud even the servants and the butler could hear her screaming. “where is it, tell me is it still on me”

“no there's nothing on you I think I was seeing something ”

Son searching his pockets. He walks towards the door, opens it and saw the butler and the servants standing at the door busy ease dropping, looking at them needing an explanation.

“ sir we heard the lady screaming so we thought something happened to her” said the butler winked his right eye.

“nothing like that happened, it's all in your heads”

Son went to the place where he places his keys and found the gift and came right up.

“this is for you Alex, for being a good friend ” giving the wrapped mini box to Alex

Alex begins to unwrap the gift as quickly as she could. “i love it! It's a beautiful gold necklace. What does it say?”

“its your name in Korean"

He helps her put it on, standing in front of a mirror, moving her hair over to her shoulder. “what do you think ” hugging her from behind looking at her reflection.

“its beautiful” her voice barely comes out, playing with her fingers nervously. Feeling something hard behind her and immediately moved away from his arms, making him feel guilty.

Alex switch the TV on changing the channel, watching the news.
I'm craving for snacks she said calling out for someone to come and get her a snack but no one came. She got up from her bed exiting her room“ where is everyone " said Alex

“my lady, please let me pack your things for tomorrow ” a young boy standing in front of her in the hallway.

“ what's happening tomorrow?” she asked desperately

“Seemed like you already forgot, you and sir are going to Hawaii tomorrow first thing in the morning ”

She exhales in relief “ if that's the case then it's okay I'll pack my things, thanks for reminding me”

“and...and dinner is served my lady, I know this will be weird but I finally see happiness in son's eyes after spending a year with you” said the young boy as he walks down the hallway.

“I thought Son was angry at me from earlier on,when I moved away from his arms and was about to kick me out from his mansion. I don't know what I would do without all this " Alex talks to herself in the middle of the hallway.

Is Alex really using him in terms of his money? And if she continues doing that will son fall in love with her even more?
