Tale had been avoiding his face since the moment they met but now she could see clearly under her mini chandelier. His face was well sculpted and all clear with a jawline to die for and It embodied the very essence of masculine beauty, he had a perfect forehead and his eyebrows were perfectly winged that they made her fingertips throb and made her a little jealous. The only place that held a little softness were his eyes, there were as dark as night but beautiful. His hair was midnight black and fell to one side of his face covering a scar she couldn't see yet. Such a face did not belong to a man who was sweet but of one who commanded, demanded and took action. His lips were so fine and firm, it sent a seductive shiver down her spine. Men like this-- who looked like he did led women to sin... And into loosing their peace of mind. "You know it's rude to stare?" he said when he felt he had allowed her have her fill.

That's my girl...

...forgive Yang Mi for the pain she caused him and forgive himself for his mistakes.

He stepped out of his car carrying the big bowl of ice cream he got her as he walked into his house.

For the next two weeks, it was going to be home to him.

...

He found her dozing quietly in the living room, curled up on one of the couch. She looked serene enough he didn't want to wake her. He peeled of his jacket and was about to pass to the kitchen to refrigerate the ice cream when he saw the dinning table was still set. She hadn't eaten yet.

"Oh no!"

He walked back to the living room to wake her.

"Tale!" he bent down to brush her cheeks with the back of his hands as she stirred awake. "Wake up, I'm back."

She opened her eyes slowly. "Hey, you're home."

He was home, for sure.

Removing a hand from under her head she smoothened his hair and touched his cheeks

"You didn't eat. Why?" he asked with genuine concern.

"I didn't want to eat without you. I just didn't." her face took on a sad puppy eyes look.

He couldn't be upset, "Okay, I'm home now, let's eat OK."

She smiled as she stood up slowly and he carried her up without a warning.

"Off your feet OK?"

"Sir, yes sir." she replied lazily.

He was tired from the work of the day but he didn't feel it anymore once those big brown eyes stared back at him and she smiled that beautiful smile. He could definitely see himself welcoming the idea of having her stay even longer.

"I missed you." he said to her when they finally sat down to eat.

"I think I did, kinda." Talk replied.

"That's my girl."

Tale like how he easily understood her. "So how was work?"

Su Yan proceeded to telling her all about his day and the issue he was called for, even if she didn't understand most, she nodded and smiled when she could.

When he finally slept off after making sure she was well tucked into bed, he dreamt of her. In his dream she came into the room where he slept and stood over his bed, she looked at him but not for long. She had a smile on her lips and admiration in her eyes; then she turned to leave but stopped, came back to the bed and kissed his cheeks. She smelled good and it stirred his blood.

He was going to reach out to stroke her hair but she was gone.

Tale ran back to her room and closed the door quietly. That was a close one she thought but it was worth it, Su Yan slept half naked and she didn't mind it at all, next to him she felt like a bag of potatoes. God created him on a Sunday she thought out loud as she climbed her bed and closed her eyes to let her imaginations run free and wild.

...

The morning settled in slowly but Tale was up early and dressed for the day. It was her habit to get up early to tackle the business of the day, she couldn't help it, no matter how comfy his bed was or how much his room held his scent, she woke up late on rare occasions and she wasn't seeing that happening anytime soon, especially with her hot boyfriend on her mind. Technically she was in the mans' bed already, getting the man himself into the said bed is an issue for another day. She settled on a white T shirt and a jean short, the only lengthy cloths Precious had gotten her were jean trousers, and she wasn't about to wear that indoors. Her curls were bundled up neatly on top of her head and today she picked up her glasses.

She walked down stairs to see him in the kitchen already. It took a moment for her to get her feet moving as he looked particularly good this morning.

He wore a simple wine shirt and a nice beige shorts. His hair was still wet and spiked a bit and his scar was out in the open.

After seeing him last night, she now had a hate love thing for him wearing clothes, with a body like his he should be shirtless most of the time.

The seductive smell of male and cologne and soap filed the air. But her eyes went wary for the way he was staring at her.

She had to find her voice. "What are you doing, and why are you staring at me like that?"
