Chapter 37

37 Hold Two Weeks

“You better go, or should I go?” Kalea asked while looking at the two of them intently. No one answered, they were still in shock at Kalea’s current attitude.

Kalea got up from her seat and went to the kitchen. She needed to cool her head by drinking a glass of cold water. When she returned to her original place, Zeline was tidying up her things.

“I’m home. Thank you for teaching me,” Zeline said with a stiff smile.

“You said you wanted to stay, it’s almost midnight,” Kalea said, preventing Zeline from going home too late.

“It-it’s okay. It’s still quite crowded outside anyways.”

“Is that so?”

“Yeah!”

“Okay, call me when you get there,” Kalea finished as she tidied up her books. After this, she decided to study in a more private place.

Zeline snorted, she turned her face to the side. “Why should I do it.”

.....

“Huh?” Arthur said, who was listening.

“If you don’t intend to tell me after this, then you have to stay here,” said Kalea, looking at the blonde girl sharply.

“Hurry up and say you’ll tell her, Zeline!” Arthur ordered because he didn’t want Zeline to stay and disturb his togetherness with Kalea.

“Yes, yes! I’ll tell you later!” Zeline had given up, she looked away from Kalea’s penthouse. “Fuck, why is she the fiercer one?!” Zeline cursed angrily.

Now only Arthur and Kalea are there. Kalea couldn’t get rid of him. The girl walked to another room, she was still not satisfied with studying because she had been disturbed by their commotion.

“Lea, I’m home!” Arthur said as he stretched out his arms for Kalea to hug him immediately. However, Kalea ignored the man. The corner of Arthur’s lips curled down, he followed Kalea’s footsteps and held the girl to close the door.

“What? I wanna study again,” Kalea said, her face still annoyed.

“You’re ignoring me?” Arthur asked.

“I want to learn.”

“Give me power first.”

“I should have asked for that!”

“Oh, you want? Then come here.” Arthur spread his arms again, but Kalea just stared at him flatly.

“Never mind, no need,” Kalea said, as she tried to close the door again.

“Lea! You’re so mean,” Arthur whispered, making a sad face for Kalea to care. He knew, that although Kalea didn’t seem to care and often wore a straight face, Kalea was actually very caring and had a heart like a fairy godmother.

Kale took a deep breath. The longer she was with Arthur, the more she realized that Arthur was really far from mature. Kalea folded her arms in front of her chest. “Looks like you’ve been coming a lot lately. Why?” Kalea asked, confused. Though she thought she could focus more on the penthouse since Arthur didn’t visit her that often.

Arthur brought his face closer to Kalea, a thin grin adorned the handsome face. “Of course, because I miss you. What else?” Arthur replied so sweetly.

Kalea was already immune to Arthur’s actions and words that were harmful to women. Her mind was already planted with the thought that Arthur wasn’t just sweet to her but to all the women he met. However, there’s no harm in responding to Arthur’s sweet treatment. Once in a while, Kalea also wanted to make Arthur feel it.

Kalea smiled sweetly, then approached the man. Kalea fiddled with Arthur’s loose tie, then she took it off. “I missed you too,” the girl replied, with a teasing look.

Arthur was flabbergasted, it was unusual for Kalea to return his sweet words. Arthur’s eyes were rounded when he felt the touch of the soft and supple lips of the girl with the brunette hair. Arthur’s mind was a little confused, he didn’t even have time to return the kiss because Kalea had finished it.

“Have you eaten? Want me to make some food?” Kalea asked concernedly.

“... I wanna eat you.”

“You can’t,” Kalea said bluntly, smiling very sweetly.

Kalea was truly unpredictable.

The girl went to the kitchen and made food for Arthur. She intends to cook salmon steaks. She began to wash the fish and prepare the seasoning. Arthur watched her from behind, folded his arms across his chest, and leaned against the refrigerator. “Maybe this is what it’s like to be married,” Arthur said suddenly, and gave Kalea the chills.

“Isn’t this kind of thing normal for you? All the women will pay attention to you. And if you wanna get married, you just have to choose one of them,” said Kalea.

“It’s so easy for you to talk. You think I decided to get married just to choose without seeing the intricacies, huh? I’m not playing the lottery.”

“The lottery needs to think of a smart strategy.”

“Well, you know that too. Anyway, do you mind if I get married?” Arthur asked making Kalea stop slicing the salmon from its scales and bones.

“Why should I do that?” Kalea asked as she turned to the man.

“Because our relationship will end and you don’t get money from me anymore,” Arthur replied with a crooked smile.

Kalea was silent for a moment, it was a difficult decision. Maybe she was wrong, but she was really addicted to Arthur, especially the man’s coffers of money. Even though the money that Arthur gave Kalea wasn’t used for a spree, it was even more that she kept. However, Kalea is still not strong enough to live alone anymore and works very hard to support her mother. At least until she graduates from college, Kalea will face reality alone again. It’s okay.

Since Kalea’s mind was still floating above, she accidentally sliced ??her own finger. “Ow!” Kalea grimaced, looking at her bloody finger and it was pouring out even more. Arthur swiftly approached the girl and held Kalea’s hand to the sink. Run water on Kalea’s finger to clean the wound. Every now and then he pressed Kalea’s finger to stop the blood from coming out. “Stay here,” Arthur ordered as he went to the first aid kit box he had prepared in the kitchen.

After feeling clean enough, Arthur brought Kalea to sit down. The man deftly applied antibiotics and put a bandage on Kalea’s finger. On the other hand, Kalea was impressed by Arthur’s attitude. The man didn’t panic and immediately acted without saying much.

“Th-thank you,” Kalea said after Arthur had finished doing her first aid. Arthur looked at the girl so seriously, he pinched Kalea’s cheek.

“You have to be careful when you cook. Look, your pretty finger must be hurt because you’re daydreaming,” Arthur grumbled.

“I-I didn’t know I was going to slice my own finger,” Kalea defended herself.

“Of course, you wouldn’t know,” Arthur replied while rubbing Kalea’s mane until it was a little messy. “Geez, don’t go to the kitchen just yet.”

“Eh? I haven’t finished cooking yet!”

“Let me continue.”

Kalea looked at Arthur a little confused. The girl was wide-eyed when Arthur opened his shirt, revealing Arthur’s beautiful and sexy body. “Wh-why do you have to undress?!” Kalea squealed.

Arthur turned to Kalea with a crooked smile. “My cooking habit is like this.”

‘Bad habit ...,’ Kalea thought in shock.

Kalea tried to calm down, she had to get used to dealing with Arthur’s various behaviors. She watched Arthur, who was cooking calmly and skillfully. She didn’t think that Arthur would be good at cooking either. Kalea swallowed hard saliva, she couldn’t lie that Arthur was really, really sexy right now. The man’s body started to sweat, his broad shoulders and the tattoo of a wing on the nape of Arthur’s neck. Kalea felt something heating up inside her body.

Arthur was really very seductive.

Soon after that, Arthur finished cooking. Kalea was looking forward to seeing and tasting the dishes made by the man.

“Wow, this really looks classy,” Kalea said honestly. Arthur is very clever in arranging the food on the plate so that it is like being in a five-star restaurant.

“Haha, I’m really good at everything!” Arthur said arrogantly. He made two servings, one for him and one for Kalea.

Kalea started to reach for her fork and a small knife to cut the salmon steak, she couldn’t wait to indulge her tongue by tasting the man’s cooking because this was the first time she had seen Arthur cook.

“Wait, Lea,” Arthur interrupted.

“Hmm?”

“I hope you don’t have high expectations for the taste, do you?”

Kalea frowned, not understanding. “What do you mean?”

“But I hope it’s better.”

Kalea ignored Arthur’s words and started tasting it. After the salmon meat entered Kalea’s mouth, she was silent. Something was struggling to get out. Kalea suddenly stood up and ran to the sink. She threw up the food there. ‘W-what am I eating?!’ Kalea thought.

Kalea turned to Arthur, who was already beside her. The man vomited his food. “Wh-what spices did you actually use?!” asked Kalea as she shook Arthur’s shoulder.

“I don’t know either ....” Arthur whispered so weakly.

“Even though the food looks very luxurious and delicious,” Kalea said, still shocked by what she had just experienced. The taste of the salmon was really strange and very bitter. Anyone who saw the dish would be very tempted to taste it but it turns out ... it tastes like food that will lead you to God.

“That’s always been my problem,” Arthur said sadly.

Kalea looked at the man, it turned out that Arthur was also just an ordinary human. Not all Arthur can master. Kalea laughed softly, making Arthur confused. “I’m glad you have a weakness,” Kalea said.

“Oh, you don’t like me to be perfect, do you?”

“Of course, there is no such human being.”

“That should be me.”

“Your self-confidence is very high,” Kalea said. “We really have to do it again, let me do the cooking. I’m fine.” Kalea asked as she opened the refrigerator. Thinking about what food she could make.

Kalea was silent as Arthur wrapped his arms around Kalea’s waist. Hugs the girl from behind. “I have no appetite anymore,” Arthur said.

“Then what do you want?”

“Eat you.”

“Rejected.”

“Why?!”

Kalea removed Arthur’s hand from her waist. She turned to face the man. “May I have one request?” Kalea asked.

“... what’s that?”

“I don’t wanna be bothered while on exams and don’t do anything intimate at all.”

Arthur widened his eyes perfectly at Kalea’s difficult request. “I-I can’t do it!”

.....

“You can! I’m just asking for that!” Kalea replied, not wanting to lose.

Arthur took a deep breath. “How long are your exams?”

“Two weeks.”

Arthur rubbed his hair into a mess, but it looked even sexier.

“You’re exaggerating. You can do it with other women like you usually do. But remember! Must wear a condom!” Kalea said firmly.

“Ca-can we still do it tonight?” Arthur pleaded like a child.

“I wanna focus on tonight.”

Arthur grabbed the girl’s arm, looking at Kalea with a pitiful look. “Let’s have some fun tonight, shall we? Won’t you miss my touch during those two weeks?”

Kalea was silent, their eyes still locked. Seeing Arthur who was now shirtless right in front of his eyes made the walls of Kalea’s stance begin to waver. The girl closed her eyes as Arthur gently caressed her cheek.

“I know you like being touched by me,” Arthur whispered. “Let’s do it until the morning as an outlet for two weeks we won’t do it.”

“W-what?!”

“No refusal.”
