“You want her, proper?”
Listening to Owen’s phrases, Kai’s cheeks slowly turned pink once more.
“Who the hell stated that?! I didn’t!” Kai denied shortly, however Owen actually didn’t consider it that simply.
“You recognize, your face and demeanor actually present that you just’re fascinated with Kalea,” Owen stated nonetheless making an attempt to get Kai to confess it.
“Being fascinated and being in love are completely different! Apart from, Lea is actually fairly, you assume so too, proper?”
“Yeah, however it’s nonetheless completely different if it’s you. You want her.”
“Decrease your voice, what if somebody hears it?”
“There’s nobody however the two of us, you fool.”
Owen smiled mockingly at Kai who may now not deny his phrases. It was not a 12 months or two that he had been pals with Kai, he had recognized the person with the scarlet hair since childhood. Kai was not a person who fell in love simply, Owen’s pal was certainly fairly fashionable among the many village ladies because of his pleasant and energetic nature. Nevertheless, nobody had actually caught Kai’s consideration and even made his face as pink because it was. As such, it was fairly a humorous sight for Owen because it was the primary time seeing his little pal being clumsy and shy when confronted with a lady.
…..
“Truthfully, you have to be actually glad to have a lady dwelling with you, proper?” Owen teased endlessly.
“S-stop it, don’t consider me as a pervert. I actually imply properly to her anyway, no pun supposed!” retorted Kai barely dodging Owen.
“I don’t assume so, actually~”
“Are you able to proceed working after this?” requested Kai all of a sudden making Owen cease teasing him, Owen frowned slightly confused.
“Huh? Why, the place are you going?”
“To observe Lea, I don’t need her to return again right here,” Kai replied as he took off his gloves on the wood chair. “Only for a short time. I’ll convey the drinks you ordered right here later.”
“So, why doesn’t she come right here anymore? She appears actually glad to see us working,” Owen requested nonetheless not understanding why Kai appeared to be holding the lady again.
“I don’t need her to get drained once more, it’s already fairly a distance from house to right here. Then I’ll go there first!” Kai took off operating, leaving Owen shaking his head at Kai habits.
“Both it’s in his nature to care about individuals, or Kai actually likes her,” Owen muttered, persevering with his work to assist Kai. “However I’m positive the second choice is true. Haah, Kai, Kai, it seems that your sort of lady is a metropolis lady, huh?”
Then again, Kalea who had completed making strawberry smoothies was tidying up the kitchen earlier than returning to fulfill Kai and Owen. Earlier than that, Kalea considered giving the drink to Ilene as properly. She introduced one glass of strawberry smoothies topped with oatmeal to Ilene’s room.
Kalea knocked on the door till she heard a response from inside. After that, Kalea opened the door with a candy smile on her face.
“Oh, Lea. What’s up?” Ilene requested kindly.
“I made some smoothies, would you want some? And I’m sorry for borrowing your kitchen,” Kalea replied as she walked over to Ilene and positioned the drink on the desk subsequent to Ilene’s mattress.
“Oh, thanks. I should have troubled you.”
Kalea shook her head shortly and stated, “In no way.”
Kalea’s hazel eyes glanced at a stack of books beside Ilene. “Do you learn books on daily basis?” Kalea requested.
Ilene adopted the route of Kalea’s gaze, which was nonetheless taking a look at her books. With a pleasant smile that by no means pale, Ilene nodded. “As a result of I can’t do something apart from this, haha. My solely comfort is studying novels,” Ilene replied, laughing softly.
To be sincere, Kalea felt very sorry and needed to assist. Though she had no thought what to do for Ilene. Ilene was a very good lady, even accepting the existence of Kalea who was a stranger to the Egner household.
“Isn’t there any method you will get higher?” Kalea requested, making Ilene slightly stunned. Kalea felt dangerous for making that candy smile flip right into a bitter smile.
“Kai took me there earlier than, however the hospital couldn’t do the rest. They’ll solely give me drugs to suppress my immune system. It’s an inherited illness from our mom,” Ilene replied with a quiet snigger. “I don’t wish to keep within the hospital for too lengthy, so I want to be handled at house,” Ilene continues.
Kalea step by step understood the Egner household’s state of affairs. She held Ilene’s hand with a severe expression. “If there’s something, you may ask me for assist, Sis.”
Ilene blinked, quickly laughing at Kalea’s habits which she discovered humorous. “Thanks, Lea. I’m actually touched by that.”
“I imply it ….”
“Alright, alright. I’ll hold your phrases in thoughts.”
After that, Kalea excused herself to go see Kai once more. She closed the door to Ilene’s room, strolling to the eating desk the place she had positioned three drinks. She was slightly confused that Kai had come.
“Why are you right here? Is there one thing you forgot to convey?” Kalea requested.
Kai shook his head, his emerald eyes turning to the drink Kalea was carrying. He took possession of it, making the brunette lady much more astonished. “I’ll carry it for you. You don’t must go there anymore, Lea.”
“Eh? Why, I actually simply tousled your work, didn’t I?” requested Kalea.
“Lea, my work could be very boring. Plus it’s very popular there, I don’t need you to get drained,” Kai stated, making an attempt to clarify in order that Kalea wouldn’t misunderstand.
“Who stated it’s boring? Your work could be very fascinating! Look, the fruit you planted is now a scrumptious drink!” Kalea replied, pointing to the drink she made earlier. Kai couldn’t argue, though he had not tasted it but, the smoothies he introduced now did look very scrumptious particularly within the scorching afternoon like at this time.
“For at this time you don’t have to go there anymore, okay? I’ll be house earlier than the evening, so await me at house,” Kai stated with a tone that was so tender, plus his gaze that soothed the center.
And for some purpose, Kalea felt prefer it was a scene between a husband and spouse when the husband took permission to work and instructed his spouse to remain at house.
“If you happen to obey, tomorrow you may see a lot of Owen’s livestock. You possibly can even journey his horse!” Kai stated once more, making an attempt to influence Kalea.
Horseback using, huh. Kalea all of a sudden considered Arthur who taught her how you can journey a horse.
“Are you able to journey a horse? If you happen to can’t, I’ll train you.”
Kalea smiled barely after which shook her head slowly. “I can. Alright, I’ll wait right here. Watch out with the drinks. I’m truly unsure the smoothies will keep chilly till there.”
“No downside, Owen and I’ll drink it. Thanks, Lea!” Kai exclaimed as he smiled broadly, displaying his rows of neat, white tooth. Kalea simply smiled again. She waved goodbye as Kai began to stroll out of the home, again to the backyard.
Kalea sighed, she was actually glad to be within the backyard however Kai stored telling her to remain house.
“Doesn’t he know the situation of my abdomen?” Kalea muttered as she held her not-so-big stomach. To not point out she stored carrying outsized garments to cowl her stomach. Kalea shook her head, her ideas have to be incorrect. “No method, it’s positively not due to that.”
Kalea went upstairs to her room, taking slightly relaxation as Kai had stated. She sat by the window overlooking the mountain surroundings that seemed near the huge expanse of grass. She closed her eyes having fun with the wind that blew her hair gently. Actually, she was actually comfy within the village. It was as if the burden that she had been carrying had evaporated from her physique as a result of now her coronary heart and thoughts had really change into calm.
Nevertheless, the expression on her face slowly grew to become unhappy. Out of the blue she considered Zeline. She felt responsible for not saying something to the blonde lady, questioning how Zeline felt after studying that she was the one who ran away from Arthur. Zeline should have been disillusioned in her, however she ought to have understood what made Kalea lastly depart Arthur’s life.
And Kalea felt that her quiet life wouldn’t final lengthy as a result of ultimately Arthur would discover her. Nevertheless, it ought to be famous that this could solely occur if Arthur cared about her slightly. As a result of if he doesn’t, Arthur won’t ever search for her once more.
Kalea hugged her physique, she stored telling herself to not miss Arthur, she should do away with that feeling as quickly as attainable. Arthur was not the person for her, in any method. He was not a person who could possibly be owned by one lady, and Kalea knew that from the start. Nevertheless, she foolishly ended up loving Arthur.
“Rattling it, please get out of my thoughts. I actually wanna hate you,” Kalea muttered, closing her eyes and biting her decrease lip.
