The Traps of the Black Swan

198

Instead of responding to Lisa's question, Ruby Jane stretched her hands at him, asking for a hug. And the man took her on his lap and rubbed her back to calm her down.

Ruby Jane: "..."

Am I so small to carry and place on the lap?

Unbelievably, she felt like a little one sitting on his lap, straddling him as he tried to comfort her.

Unexpected to his thoughts, Ruby Jane cupped his face and pecked on his lips, "Stop mollycoddling me so much." And she knows he won't listen to her.

Strangely feeling her dreams might be related to the things she was puzzled to speak with him, he asked before she started seducing him.

He cupped her face and asked, looking at the pout of her lips, "Are you still not going to tell me?"

After a big yawn against her backhand, Ruby Jane decided to ask Lisa before looking into the matter.

She first tried to recollect her recent dream that she was sure it would be her past with Lisa.

She didn't realize when Ruby Jane's eyes softened. Lisa was amused looking at her pleasing smile appearing on her little face. He accurately knew she recalled something from their teenage years, and it can't be because of a nightmare.

Ruby Jane quickly briefed him, "You got very angry at me...."

...

The teenager scolded her and got angry at little Jennie after learning she was doing homework for her classmate.

The teenager's gentle gaze and words had turned too cold, and he ignored her. It wasn't the first time he saw her writing her classmate's homework.

He had told her to focus on herself, and if extra time, she could use it on something she loves to do.

Being too kind and over-sensitive, Little Jennie had given into her classmate's fake tears and was again writing other's assignments.

After getting caught by the teenager, seeing him get angry at her, Little Jennie didn't want him to start hating her like her parents, so she decided to coax him.

She had tried to persuade him all evening, running behind him, asking sorry, and even held her ears. But the teenager was too stubborn.

Running behind his long legs, she tripped due to her clumsiness and fell on her knees and arms.

Being another stubborn teenager, she bit her lips without letting her tear fall or cry in pain when it was stinging uncontrollably.

The handsome teenager turned around when the little footsteps didn't sound behind him. He saw her pretty little face flushed due to pain while sitting on the floor looking at her knee. He noticed the blood dots and scratches and her eyes, which willfully held her tears back from trickling down.

He was quicker to her than anybody inside the café could reach her, "Cupcake...." His voice had a hint of hurt for her pain.

Biting her lips, she looked at him with her tear-filled eyes. His hand had just stroked her head, and she burst into tears before he could utter anything.

Instead of crying for the wound on her knee, she fussed at him for not talking to her. "Why aren't you speaking with me?"

He desperately tried to calm her down. When the people started looking at them, he carried her up without asking for permission and placed her on a chair.

Nikun brought them a first aid kit, and the handsome teenager carefully treated her wounds and applied the band-aid.

Rather than being happy that she finally got his attention and heard him speak to her, she puffed her cheeks, pouted her lips.
