Chapter 93

When Ashley screamed, Tanaga sobered up quickly.  "I'm sorry!  I'm sorry!  I didn't mean to do that.  I'm so sorry!  Please, forgive me!"  He keeps on saying sorry while he continues trying to wipe away the coffee that had spilled on Ashley's clothing while his face was all red from being horrified.

"It's alright! It's alright, Tanaga. I'm fine!  I didn't get burned, and I was just startled, that's why I screamed."  Said Ashley while she's slowly trying to stop him from what he was doing.  However, Tanaga was not satisfied; it doesn't matter what Ashley was saying. He wasn't' listening.  "Tiny!!!" He shouted, calling Ashley's bodyguard.

The door burst opened, and Tiny came sprinting, eyes full of concern.  "Sir, you called?  You needed something?"  He asked Tanaga while looking at Ashley.  He saw how worried Tanaga was with Ashley for spilling a hot coffee on her clothes.

"Call the family doctor, Ashley might have a third-degree burn!"  Tanaga shouted without looking at him.

"Never mind that Tiny, I don't need a doctor.  I only felt slightly hot, but I was not burnt.  Go ahead and leave us. please!"  She ordered Tiny while it's showing on her face how embarrassed she is from what happened.  

"If you are sure that you didn't get burned and you are alright, then I will take my leave?"  Asked Tiny making sure that it is what she said it is.

"Yes!  I'm sure!  Thank you very much. This is nothing."  She told him with a slight smile on her face.

Since Ashley insisted that she's fine, Tiny has no choice but to leave the couple.  He bid them goodbye and went back outside to his post by the door.

As soon as Tiny left, Ashley faced Tanaga.  " I'm going inside for a moment to change my wet clothes, alright?  Once I'm done, I'll come back and make you another coffee, for you do need to sober up." Ashley said with a low tone of voice, then turned around and went towards the bedroom.

Ashley thought that Tanaga had listened to what she told him.  She didn't know that he followed her as she made her way to the bedroom.  That's why she was stunned when she was about to close the door and... "OUCH!!!" Tanaga screamed his heart out for Ashley almost closed the door on his feet and fingers.

"God have mercy!  What in the world were you doing following me?  I told you that I needed to change out of these wet clothes, and I would be right back.  Why didn't you wait for me out there?"  Ashley scolded him like a little child.  However, when Ashley saw how hurt he was and bent his head.  She suddenly felt sorry for him and lower her tone of voice.

"I can't believe you, Tanaga... I told you that I needed to change and would be right back to make you another coffee.  We need to sober you up, for we have a lot to talk about.  How are we to understand each other if you are still drunk.  So, go back out there and wait for me, alright?" She tries to coax Tanaga like a child, speaking with a soft tone of voice.

"Hahaha! Do you think I'm a  child that you're trying to coax?  My dear wife, I'm not drunk if you must know!  I only drunk too much!  Hahaha!" A Drunk Tanaga jokingly told Ashley while acting silly in front of Ashley.

'My goodness, he could still joke around, when he almost gave me a third-degree burnt from the scorching hot coffee.  It's a good thing that the weather today was a little chilly, and I put on a coat, if not... he would have killed my legs. ' Ashley thought as she continued to go inside the room, shaking her head. She was not caring if he follows or goes back outside.  All it matters was for her to get out of the wet clothes she's wearing.

Meanwhile, Tanaga was staggering as he went direct to the massive bed and plopped his body.  When Ashley saw what he did, she decided to let him be and continued to the dressing room and finish what she was planning to do all along.

Not even ten minutes since Tanaga's back hit the bed. He was already snoring.  That's what Ashley found when she finished changing, Tanaga was sound asleep and loudly snoring...

As she walks toward the door, Ashley stopped for a moment.  She turned around walked by the edge of the bed.  She stood right there and stared at the handsome man right in front of her. 'Tanaga looks like an Angel while he was sleeping.' She smiled while in deep thought.  

As she stared at him, she couldn't help think... 'Is this for real?  Am I married to this handsome man, and he is now my husband?'    To make sure that she wasn't dreaming...  She pinched herself.  "Ouch!"  'I guess I was not dreaming cause it hurt .'  

She kept on staring at him as she begins mumbling to herself.  "What now?  Grandma Hanada said to make sure that I don't give in to him and never let him sleep with me.  What am I going to do if, in the middle of the night, he comes for me while I'm sleeping?  Another thing... It only takes one kiss from him, and my underwear would drop in a heartbeat.  What a life!  What Am I going to do?"

As she keeps on mumbling to herself, she didn't realize that Tanaga's eyes opened slightly, and he peeked.  He then smirked secretly, for he heard every word his wife said.  She just had to mumble right in front of him, not knowing that he wasn't sleeping.  He only closed his eyes, for he began to feel dizzy.

When he heard the dressing room door opened, he acted sleeping and even made a sound of snoring loudly to make it believable for Ashley.  He planned on waiting for Ashley to come and check on him, then when she's close enough... He would grab her and pull her to the bed.  Then she wouldn't be able to resist.  He couldn't believe his luck, that Ashley would talk to herself right there and later.  Therefore, he heard every word she said loud and clear.

'So' That's what my good old grandmother advise you.  Let see if you could handle not letting me sleep with you.  I know your week spot, you wait... We will have a derby all night long.  As long as our body could handle...'  Tanaga was telling himself while his eyes still close acting as if he was asleep.

Ashley decided to fix the way Tanaga was lying in bed.  One of his feet was still hanging at the side of the bed.  That was a big mistake on her part for that's all Tanaga was waiting for...   He first let her lift her feet while Ashley was making sure that he was finally laying down straight.

Once she was finished straightening Tanaga's body, she removed his shoes then put them by the side of the bed.  Ashley realized that he wasn't using a pillow on his head.  So that the next thing she did, put a pillow on his head to make sure Tanaga was comfortable.  Not knowing he was only faking sleep.

Once Ashley finished making sure that Tanaga was comfortable, she then let out a sigh of relief.

"Gosh!  Thank God it done!  Go ahead, sleep it off, and sober up.  Meanwhile, I will make a bowl of soup for you, so when you wake up... you will have a hangover soup to drink."  She said to the sleeping Tanaga.

Unbeknown to Ashley that Tanaga was only faking sleep.  He was waiting for a chance to implement his plan.  In his mind, he began counting... 'One, Two, T-Three.' He was about to grab Ashley to pull her to the bed.  But then...
