Kimmy was surprised to see how annoyed Cain looked at that mont.
"Yeah, I'm sorry about last night. I puked on you, right?" Kimmy naively stated. She was still contemplating whether to admit to Cain that she rembered the kiss they shared.
"That's not what I want to know," Cain replied with a straight face. He wanted to ntion the kiss but he did not know what was holding him back to directly ask that question to Kimmy. Maybe because he was scared? And why would he be afraid? He was anxious that Kimmy would deny it and in the end, he would be rejected the second ti around.
Kimmy raised a brow as she questioned, "what else do you want to know, doc? I rember you seeing almost naked in the bathroom? Is that what you're referring to?"
She was waiting for Cain to ntion the kiss but her hunch was telling her that Cain would not dare ntion it first. She could sense that Cain was still wondering if she rembered about the kiss or not. Sorry for him because she decided that she would not admit it! If she did, he would definitely bully her about it. No way!
The waiter finally arrived with their sandwiches and coffees. The two were both quiet as they ate breakfast. Both had the sa topic running inside their head but none dared to voice it out.
Kimmy was done eating when her mobile phone suddenly rang. She creased her forehead seeing it was her mother. She answered it.
"Are you with Cain right now?"
"Huh?" Kimmy gasped, she subconsciously looked at Cain.
"Sean said you arrived with Cain. What's going on? Are you two going out?!"
"No!" Kimmy quickly answered.
"Stop thinking too much mom. We just arrived at the sa ti since we coincidentally t in a cafe for breakfast. I was with him when Will called him about uncle. But seriously mom… You called just because of that?! How about uncle? Are you at the palace now? How is uncle?"
Leila sighed and said, "well that's what is confusing Kimmy! Why did you leave so fast and did not stay here with your uncle? Soone said they saw you driving Cain's car and you picked him up!"
Kimmy silently cursed those eyes in the Palace and the people who could not keep their mouths shut! Now she would be in big trouble knowing how her mother's mind works!
Cain could already tell what was happening just by hearing Kimmy's conversation with her mother in front of him.
"Oh yeah, we left together because I will go with him to the hospital to have a check-up. I'm with him right now. Mom, the signal here is not good. I will call you back," Kimmy said before quickly ending the call.
She looked at Cain and grunted, "I will be in big trouble."
Cain had a blank expression when he replied, "just tell her that you're working with . That way she won't worry or ask more. Don't worry I will talk to her."
"And what will you say to her?" Kimmy asked, curious about what Cain would tell her mother.
"I will tell her that I offered you work. That way she won't ask you too many questions…"
"Yeah she won't ask but she will definitely assu that you are taking an interest in ," Kimmy murmured with a pout.
"So? Don't you think that's better than having her think that you have interest in instead? What do you think? Do you prefer that?"
Kimmy's shoulders dropped as she replied, "It doesn't make any difference. I will just prepare myself. Knowing how my mother is… She will definitely start pestering . I just hope she won't do sothing extre again to make run away…"
"I think you and your mother need a heart-to-heart talk. A one-on-one talk. Have you visited her at ho? Or spend at least a day with her?" Cain asked.
Kimmy sighed loudly before she shook her head. She just realized how she was shutting her mother too much in her life. Then she recalled her mother's conversation with uncle Daniel last ti her mother visited Cain's father.
She eavesdropped and heard how her mother was so worried about her. She chose Cain for her knowing Cain was a responsible man, unlike her father.
"Auntie Leila is a good mother. You know mother always knows best and I strongly believed that it's true. She's just worried about you, Kimberly. How about you talk to her? You can visit and go out with her any day."
"Not all are lucky like you whose mother is still there for you. Set aside your worries about her bugging you with because I reassure you that I will no longer agree to sothing where the other party involved is unwilling… I already learned my lesson."
Kimmy bit her inner cheek because she felt the disappointnt in Cain's voice. She should be feeling good with what Cain said, right? It only ant that he would not agree to another arranged marriage in case her mother tried sothing like that again.
However, she was feeling down, hearing his words. She did not like his words since it was as if he would no longer agree to marry her.
'He said 'unwilling' Kimmy so don't think badly about it that he doesn't want to marry soone like you anymore. He just wanted soone who is willing… unlike you who ran away!'
"I guess you are right. I'm probably just overreacting and assuming so much. Maybe mom has already changed. How about tomorrow? I will spend my day tomorrow with my mom. Is that okay?" Kimmy asked.
"Yeah, anyti Kimmy," Cain said with a wide smile. He was feeling elated that Kimmy was listening to him and took his advice.
"Good girl," he added with a wink toward Kimmy who ended up gulping. It was the first ti Cain winked at her and she felt her heart suddenly stop beating because of how adorable he looked at that mont.
'Damn! I'm in trouble!' Kimmy helplessly mused.
