Chapter 82 - WHAT IS HE THINKING?!

The next day, Cayenne's eyes were about to fall out of her eye sockets from the shock. 

Stefan woke up earlier than her and he didn't even bother waking her up. She slept all the way until it was nine in the morning since there was no work to do.  What greeted her was a tray on her bedside table which was full of foods. A portable thermos mug with a hot chocolate inside it was also provide.

She picked up the note that he left on top of the food covering. 'Rise and shine, my dear Ayen. Please don't go somewhere today because I'm coming back during lunch and we will be going to a fun place. See you.'

Cayenne frowned deeply while reading the note. "Ehh? What is he thinking? What happened? Wasn't he angry last night? Is he okay?" Cayenne was worried now. She had no idea what he was planning at all. She opened the food covering and started eating her food. She drank the hot chocolate and she felt refreshed after eating.

She pulled out her phone and found a message from her. "So, he texted me last night." Cayenne mumbled while reading his message. "Is this the reason why he got mad? But, why was he going to have dinner with me. Don't parties have food?" She questioned herself and felt that Stefan was getting really weird.

'Thank you for the food. And sorry for oversleeping.' Stefan was reading this message from her while Chris was reading the daily report to him.

'I'm glad you like it.' Stefan replied, not paying attention to what Chris was reading. He was going to make her fall madly in love with him. 'I hope this plan won't backfire at me.' Stefan mentally told himself with precaution.

Around eleven in the morning, Stefan went home with food boxes. When he arrived, Cayenne was also checking the refrigerator for food ingredients. She was planning to cook for their lunch but Stefan brought home several boxes of food.

"I'm home."

"Hn. Welcome back." Cayenne helped him in arranging the dishes on the disposable boxes.

"Let's just use the disposable boxes and utensils to eat. That way, we don't need to wash the dishes and we can leave the house immediately."

"Okay." She will never contradict him with whatever his plans were as long as they were decent and it won't cross her bottom line. They sat facing each other and ate their lunch. "How was your work?"

"It's was okay. I didn't have much to do so, there's nothing worth worrying plus, all the business under my name and the ones that I have shares with are doing great."

"That's good to know." Cayenne responded with a genuine smile. Even if she was hurting, even if she was having a hard time, she was genuinely happy for him. She likes to see him having a great time in his own business. "Where are we going by the way?"

"It's a secret. You will know about it soon."

Cayenne pursed her lips and nodded her head. "Do I need to be formal?" she asked after a minute has passed.

"You can wear the clothes that you're most comfortable with. We are going somewhere to relax and have fun."

"I understand."

Stefan looked at her and his heart was aching to see that she was being forceful around him. It was obvious that she was not looking forward to the time that the two of them will be spending in the afternoon.

Deep inside, Cayenne was super happy to be invited with him to hangout and have some quality time with just the two of them. She was looking forward to this time but she had to keep a straight face in front of him because she can't show him her real feelings. It won't do her good if he finds out.

The two of them finished their food after half an hour and Stefan helped her cleanup their dining table and disposed their garbage. "Go and change your clothes. We're going out after half an hour."

"Hn. I'll be quick."

Cayenne ran upstairs, followed by his intense gaze. He put her hand inside his pocket and found the two tickets he bought for the theater show. He didn't know about it but Chris told him that it's a good place to have a date. Unlike movies, theater show was more realistic and you can even interact with the actors.

Their dialogues were live and there's no option for take two or to edit it. In his mind, theater show is an amazing form of art. And it just so-happen that a theater group arrived in the city not long ago and rented the old theater art to conduct their first theater show. He can only wish that nothing would go wrong in his choice of place to date.

"I'm done." Cayenne showed up wearing faded blue jeans, a black crop top tube downed with white long sleeves which she rolled-up all the way to her elbows. She paired it with white strapped sandals, white sling bag and made sure to bring a baseball cap and dark glasses with her. Her hair was tied into a high ponytail for her to easily insert the cap later and it would be difficult for someone to take it off from her.

Stefan looked her from head to toe. Although he likes what she was wearing, he didn't like her to show her fair skin to other men, specially her flat and smooth stomach.

"Change your tube. Find a simple shirt to pair with that jeans."

"Why? Does it look bad on me?"

"I don't mean it that way. I'm just worried that you'd get a stomach ache after our date."

"Date?! Why are we going to have a date?" Cayenne clutched the sling of her bag from anxiousness. She had no idea that it will be a date with him.

Stefan stepped forward and held her chin to make her look up to him. "You promised to have a date with me. A date like what real couples do."

"Did I?"

"Yup. And I want to have that date now."
