The Truthful Game

Chapter 6

The sky was still dark for Elizabeth as she got up from her bed. The alarm clock said 5.53am and it was unusual for her to wake up at such time on a Saturday morning. However, Elizabeth decided it was time to pay a visit to this M. R Cyrus and now it was just right.

Elizabeth knew her father was still sleeping and won't be up until eight in the morning. Here, she was trying a stroll along the street, taking in the breeze in the high time. She was all dressed up with a simple little black dress, accompanied with long socks and white ballet flats.

Before even knowing, she was already outside this M. R Cyrus' house. Ensuring it was the correct address, Elizabeth took out the letter to matched. Since it was correct, she gulped as she knocked on the door. How would M. R Cyrus looked like? She would not know.

With no answer, Elizabeth was left without luck and she decided to head down to the nearest diner for breakfast. The diner was unlike the diner in her neighbourhood. It had this countryside feel with a splash of ocean blue colour. A blonde waitress noticed Elizabeth sitting at a spot and was waiting for the ordering.

"Hi there, young lady. What can I get for you?", the waitress said with a brightest smile Elizabeth had seen. She just wanted a cup of hot morning rose tea since she was not hungry. After the waitress left, Elizabeth made use of her time to study the view outside the diner.

"Never knew you live around here.", Elizabeth heard a familiar voice. She looked up to see Richard/Mr. Matthews right in front of her. Without saying or asking, Elizabeth allowed him to join her for breakfast and continued studying the view.

Despite not liking strangers to join her in the same table, Elizabeth realised somehow she did not mind Richard. Something was up when she caught him looking at her. Richard's eyes were filled with mystery, no words could explain his enchanting look.

"What do you want from me?"
"To be friends."

Before knowing, Richard was already gently using his feet to caressed her legs. Elizabeth did the same way too, arousing him in return. Soon, both of them looked in the eyes, as if they telepathically exchanged their current thoughts.

There, their passion ignited even more brighter.
