FEAR OF FONDNESS

CHAPTER 56 DEPARTURE

Shinaya's POV:

The whole two hours after the library tour were damn heavy like I was pressed between two mountains. One of my brain and the other of my heart. Brains thoughts, he was a mysterious man I told you, he is a stalker! The other one of hearts?... No, I don't want to think of that.

Eating muffins and thinking of my messed up life was being now being much tiring now. My brain had stopped working by now and I was craving for dinner. Usually, I always had my dinner whenever he was late, but today, I decided to wait for him. Although he told me that he would be late still I decided to wait. It was already one and a half hours earlier than my usual time and that library photograph and its thoughts had already consumed much of my energy.

I just gave up and dropped my head on the chair's back. 

I really wanted to know what was written on that photo but his writing was more like calligraphy, even Google Translate couldn't translate it.

Lost in my thoughts I didn't know when he came in.

I felt a hand around my waist and he immediately kissed my neck. I felt a shiver run down my spine. I audibly gasped at his sudden action. "hello, sweetheart!" he said as he tilted his gaze to me.

Examining my shocked expression he frowned. "Did I scare you?" he asked smirking. I sighed looking at him, "Of course you did! I didn't know who just came in!" I said relaxing my nerves. 

To which his grip strengthened on me, "Who can dare to touch you except me?". He said coming closer to me. His tone had shifted to a threatening one, a more daring one, the one I liked his reply in.

He gently pecked my right cheek and then my neck, and before he could go any farther I asked, "Did you eat dinner?". 

"yes" he replied.

What?...

"You eat the dinner?" He inquired to get a yes formally.

"NO!" I spat out of anger. 

I was in a worse mood now, what does it mean he had his dinner? I was waiting fo him for a long time and he had already had his dinner, right? This is what I get trying to be a good wife!

His expression was now confused, he loosened his grip on me and turned me to face him. "You didn't have dinner? are you feeling well?" he asked in a very concerned tone. 

I was embarrassed I waited for him and what did I get? now he would feel how cheesy I am! Ah, what type of embarrassment is this? That's why I hate this stuff.

"Yes, I, just," I paused.  His eyes were now searching my face.

"Shinaya? Are you okay? What's wrong?" He questioned pressing my hand gently.

"I, I was waiting," I told him gazing down. It was really embarrassing but I had to tell him I couldn't lie about it, what could I have said?

"Waiting? for who?" He asked innocently. I frowned and stared back at him. He still had his innocent looks. I was scanning his face to look at any last traces of humanity. 

"Who had I possibly wait for?" I crossed my hands on my chest out of frustration.

After a second of realization, he asked, "Were you waiting for me?"

How innocent of him!

It was disappointing and embarrassing already but now it was kind of unbelievable too. why was he so unsure? I know what I did was unexpected, but to this extent, I couldn't imagined it.

"No!" I grinted my teeth. Fine if it is unbelievable then let it be. I tried to free my hands from his grip, as I just wanted a place to hide now but he pulled me in by a slight tug.
