''She is fine, don't worry. I took her sowhere for her to calm down. We will co back to the city tomorrow and then go to the police station''
''Call us when you are back, we will go to the police station with her to make a report''
''Alright, I will tell her to call you when she wakes up'' Robyn hung up and went back to the car.
''Where are we?'' Brenda asked looking outside the window.
''You are awake?'' Robyn looked at her and she humd a reply. ''We are far from the city. we are at Han Drive in Beach'' he replied and she turned to look at him.
''Why did you bring here?''
''Because you asked to take you away. This was the best place I could think off''
Brenda got out from the car and started walking away and he followed her.
''This place looks calm and beautiful'' she said when he caught up to her. she had removed her booths and was now walking barefooted when he reached her side.
''Why did you remove your booths? Your feet will get cold'' he said to her.
''I walk to feel the sand beneath my feet. It calms down''
''Are you alright? I called your friends to inform them that we will be back to the city by tomorrow''
''Thank you''
''Hungry?''
''Not really but I could use so food''
''I have so snacks and cup noodles in my car''
''We don't have hot water dummy'' she said and laughed at him.
''Right, we don't have hot water'' he scratched his head and looked towards the many guesthouses located around the drive in beach, ''but we could get so at any of the guesthouses over there''
''Are you thinking of getting lucky with tonight because I'm vulnerable?''
''You don't look vulnerable to . If anything, you are keeping it together well. You are a strong person''
''I wonder how I'm going to face the people at the company tomorrow. I've given them so much to talk about today with the incident''
''What you should be worried about is how to be strong when facing that scum tomorrow at the station. Brenda, I hope you are ready because tomorrow is going to begin your fight for justice with that man. I did a little investigation into him and found out he is the cousin of Kody and they are quite an influential family in D-City. because I am not from this city, I have little connections but still, I will be with you all the way''
''I can't believe a day like this finally ca. I always thought that I wouldn't ever be able to make him pay for what he did to , but, thanks to you I am finally on my way to getting justice. Don't worry, I am quite strong. I won't let your efforts go to naught''
''That reminds , I have a lawyer friend. She is very good at her job; I can help you arrange a date with her if you wouldn't mind''
''Arrange it, I don't really have a particular lawyer that I can go to. First, almost all the lawyers I went to refused to take my case because they were afraid to offend that family. If she can take up the case, I will be grateful''
''I will get in touch with her later. She is called Amber Grace Alice''
''Amber Grace Alice? Why does she have only female nas?''
''She has a little history behind those nas and they are important to her. she is from the military family in D-City''
''Won't she charge a lot of money then?''
''Don't worry about the cost''
''No, I can't let you handle that too? I already owe you for getting the hacker to take those pictures down and recording an evidence for . I hate owing people favours''
''Am I just anyone?'' he asked her and stepped closer to her.
''We should go and get so hot water for the noodles, I am so hungry right now'' she said and turned, walking away. Her face had turned red as she walked with hurried steps.
''Wait for , let' go together, my girlfriend'' he ran after her and she started running away.
.
After the noodles were ready, the two sat at the lobby of the guesthouse where there were empty tables for guests.
''This taste better than I thought. I can't rember the last ti I ate noodles this late at night''
''This could be considered normal for though. I live alone and sotis get ho late. This is the most I can get to eat''
''That's such a bad thing to do. eating this once in a while is okay but on daily basis, it is a no-no for ''
''I shouldn't listen to my girlfriend then''
Brenda choked and he picked a bottle of water for her. after drinking a bit of the water, she looked at him with a flushed face.
''You who is your girlfriend?'' she stuttered as her face continued to redden.
''You said it yourself, in front of a lot of people at the office building. I bet everyone would think we are dating by now''
''That I was only saying that to spite that scum''
''So, you used ?'' he cocked a brow at her and she lowered her gaze. ''I don't care whether you were joking or not. I am not going to correct anything at the office. I'm going to let them continue to think that way''
''Why?''
''Because I've been wanting that to really happen for a while now''
''Where will we sleep tonight?''
''I got us a room'' he said and Brenda looked up.
''Are we going to sleep in the sa room?''
''Yes'' he looked at her, eting her gaze, ''because you might wake up with nightmares. Even if you don't say it, today has affected you a lot and you are scared to be alone. I won't touch if unless you want to'' he winked at her after saying the last part.
''Pervert, I'm not talking to you again'' she said and went back to eating her food in silence.
After the al, they went to the room he had booked earlier. It was a detached room with two different bedrooms at opposite side with a common hall connecting them to each other.
When Brenda saw the two rooms, she turned to Robyn with a surprise look on her face which he registered clearly and said to her.
''You are grateful right? You won't find a man as thoughtful as anywhere. Are you touched by my actions?'' he smiled at her.
What he said earlier to her was just a prank he was playing on her. He was a man who knew his limits and one of them was to not go overboard with a woman who didn't share the sa feelings with him. He knew she had a positive attitude about him and didn't hate him either but he still wasn't sure about her feelings towards him and until those were made known, he wasn't going to cross the line. Even though he could swear he did a lot of tis in his head since the day they got a little closer, sharing s, eating together, getting each other coffee and wishing each other goodnight when going to bed. He had loved those monts and didn't want to ruin it. she was still guarded against him.
Looking at him from a distance, Brenda suddenly felt her heart lting. She had thought a lot about her feelings about him and realised that she did feel sothing special towards him, but she was always careful and still afraid. A man she had trusted a lot years ago hurt her and made her life miserable. She was afraid sothing like that would happen again.
But, now, looking at the man in front of her, she didn't feel like that anymore. She felt that he cared about her even more than she did herself. She couldn't find the words to say how she felt, so she did what she knew was the only way for her to convene her feelings to him.
She placed her bag on the couch and walked towards him. Trapping him between the door, she wrapped her arms around his head, pulling him closer since he was taller than her. She could see the flustered look on his face but she didn't plan to back down either. She was one who always took actions when she was sure of her steps.
''Bren'' Robyn's words were cut off by her lips which crashed into his and she kissed him. He looked at him with his eyes wide opened. She had her eyes closed so he forcefully pulled her away.
Brenda blushed looking at him and asked, ''don't you like ?''
''I do, but what about you?'' he asked her seriously.
''I do''
''Since when?''
''I don't know exactly 'but I really like you, Robyn''
''I won't be able to stop myself if you look at like that''
''Like what?''
''Like I am the only one you see in the world. Your eyes are so sincere''
''Then, don't stop. This is how I am going to look at you from hereafter'' she said and he circled his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to himself and took over the kissing.
