That afternoon, they did not have tea time. Meeting with several clients detained Dexter. He deeply apologized to Kaili on the phone call.
Even though Kaili was very disappointed, she was still nice. She didn't want to corner Dexter. She firmly believed that they still had a lot of time together. They would live together for the next 100 years!
"Okay, no problem. I'll be waiting for you at home. One thing you should remember; work is important, but health is more important. Don't forget to take a rest!"
"Um ... I will!" Dexter's short reply, made Kaili's heart a little warm.
Sky Garden Apartment ~ Dexter's Residence!
After returning from her parents' house, Kaili went to the stationery shopping center. She took some stationery and some painting tools, and then returned to the apartment.
When she arrived at the apartment, Aunty Inandi was still there. Kaili had also bought some ingredients for making cake, which she had searched on the internet.
"Aunty Inandi, are you still here?"
Aunty Inandi looked up at the source of the voice. With a warm smile, she replied, "Not yet, Dexter told me to be here to accompany you until he come back."
"Ah, he is too much." Kaili shook her head at that, "Oh, by the way, Aunty Inandi, can you teach me how to bake? I've bought the ingredients."
Even though a few days ago, she was very disappointed that Dexter didn't eat her first dish, that didn't stop Kaili from learning. It was the fact that she did cook for Dexter. But apart from wanting to show skill in front of Dexter, her main goal was to boost her potential to have a lot of abilities. So that even though there was a sense of disappointment at that time, it was not very deep.
"With pleasure, what cake do you want to bake?"
"Let's start from the easy one! These are the ingredients, have a look, what can they be used for?"
Aunty Inandi saw the cake ingredients Kaili bought and decided that they would make classic pancakes.
Aunty Inandi only gave directions. Kaili did all the instructions earnestly. Sometimes she found it difficult. Her soft hands had to deal with hot, rough objects such as a spoon that she has to use constantly to stir the flour and coconut milk mixture.
But that didn't make Kaili give up! She really showed her seriousness. In a few minutes, she already made the delicious cakes. Aunty Inandi praised Kaili many times, making her more confident.
It was already evening. The sunshine began to fade. It seemed that soon it would change its color to reddish. Kaili convinced Aunty Inandi to go home, arguing that Dexter might be coming home very late.
After Aunt Inandi came home, Kaili sat on their bedroom balcony.
The April breeze was so good in J Country. The flowers were blooming. The sun was starting to show its face.
Kaili sat on the balcony drinking her homemade coffee. It was her first time making her own coffee and she felt proud of it. She took out a brush and began to paint the landscape in front of her. Fortunately, Dexter's apartment had a very interesting view. You could easily get inspiration.
At a time like this, Kaili always felt so peaceful and lonely. She loved being alone like this. At home, she often spent time painting.
She was so immersed in the moment that she didn't even notice someone was coming from behind. She just realized after a white hand took a brush and painted a swan on the canvas in front of her.
She turned around and found that Dexter's face was very close to her, only 2 cm away. They had never been this close, but right now, with the atmosphere of the sun about to set, somehow it felt very different. The red glow of the sun brushed against Dexter's handsome face stunned Kaili. Kaili called the moment like this as a handsome man with the sun that can't be apart!
Kaili stared at Dexter from the side, but the man just stayed cool and continued painting. Previously, one of Dexter's hands was on the back of the chair Kaili was sitting on, but now he possessively embraced Kaili's neck and continued to paint on the canvas with his body leaning slightly forward.
Dexter was indeed handsome. There was no need to doubt it! His hair, eyebrows, eyes, nose, and lips, these five unbalanced senses, always made people feel comfortable seeing him and will be more addicted to staring at him. Especially, when looking at him from the side, his jawline looked so perfect.
The air seemed to stop for 15 seconds. There was only the breath of the two people. Their faces were very close since Kaili was looking at Dexter from the side. Her breath blew directly against the skin of Dexter's face. Dexter felt something arose inside him but he always easily held back.
After a while, Kaili realized, "You ... there is a chair over here, why do you have to bend down like this? This is rude, you know!"
Dexter smiled, looked at her for a while then pointed to the canvas, "I just felt that this scene was too lonely. Now it looks more alive with the geese in it."
"Look at what you did! It's not the concept." Kaili was pouting. Actually, she just wanted to cover up her nervousness.
"Oh, then I screwed up your fantasy, sorry." But for some reason, Kaili felt that Dexter was not really sorry. The man also continued to wrap his hands around Kaili's neck.
Kaili stared at him. She took the brush from his hand but she didn't plan to erase Dexter's swan either.
Dexter just chuckled at his stupid wife, "Do you like painting?"
"Hmm ... a little."
"Did you say a little? My wife is really too humble. If you look at your painting, you have at least a dozen years of experience."
True, Kaili couldn't do anything. But since childhood, her parents always introduced her to many things and managed to master them, such as painting, playing the piano, horse riding, gymnastic, swimming, and dancing. The dance she mastered the most and enjoyed doing was pole dance. She also mastered 7 international languages.
"Do you understand about painting?"
"Just a little." Dexter pulled out a chair and sat next to Kaili. In a relaxed manner, he took Kaili's coffee cup and drank it.
"Eh, that's mine ..."
"Drinking my own wife's coffee. Is it a problem?"
Kaili didn't think that Dexter was so random, even wanting to have a glass with someone else, Kaili frowned.
"Are you used to being like this?"
"What?" Dexter was surprised.
"Have a cup with some of your friends?"
Dexter kissed her lips instead, "No! I just kissed you."
Blush ...
Dexter's answers were always ridiculous! But it was very clear. This meant that apart from Kaili, there had never been anyone else.
Kaili immediately broke her awkwardness, "Oh, I made a cake. Is Doctor Dexter willing to try it?"
Dexter narrowed his eyes, "Am I going to get diarrhea?"
Kaili was very annoyed and pinched his muscular stomach, "You are so annoying! I don't want to care about you anymore!" Kaili was about ready to go.
But Dexter caught her wrist so Kaili fell into Dexter's arms. Fortunately, Dexter had predicted this, so he had prepared a position to catch Kaili.
"You are so reckless! How could you fall just by walking?" Dexter squinted as if he was really angry.
