She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 91 - THE BOSS IS PROBABLY IN LOVE

When they finally finished eating their street food dinner, it was almost eight in the evening. Cayenne was so full – they had to find a bench to sit. Luckily, there were some benches around the place and most people were walking around. Not many people wanted to sit like them.

"Thanks for the treat tonight. I'm really full and satisfied." Cayenne stated while staring at the sky littered with small sparkling diamonds which were the stars. Unexpectedly, Stefan placed his hand on her tummy. It truly shocked her and she stiffened. "What are you doing?"

"Just relax." Stefan rubbed her stomach in circular motion. "This will help you with your digestion."

"Uhm. I can do that."

"What's the difference with you doing it and with me doing it for you?"

Cayenne was dumbstruck with his response. There's no way she'd tell him that it makes her a bit awkward. She could only smile and let him do what he wants. After five minutes, Stefan raised his head to look at her. "Do you still feel very full? Or is it a lot better now?"

Cayenne looked the other way to avoid meeting his eyes.? Aside from meeting his eyes, his face was a lot closer to her. She could even feel his warm breath in this cold night. "Uh…It's…it's a lot better now."

"I see. Shall we go for a walk and look around the place?"

"Sure." The two of them, still holding each other's hand, walked around the night market to see what's in store that the can probably buy. There were bags, shoes, vases, slippers, clothes and many other items around them. There were wooden picture frames, too. "I like this."

"A picture frame?"

"Yup. I got this photo from the lady host in the event earlier this afternoon." She showed Stefan the picture which was a picture of them with Valkyrie and Brown. "I want to place this in a picture frame." Stefan nodded his head and he was just about to pay for it when Cayenne stopped him. "I want to pay for the frame. Can I?"

"O-okay."

Cayenne didn't tell him why she wanted to pay for it when he had been paying for the two of them the whole time. She also bough different colors of thread and a set of sewing needles. He had no idea what she was up to.

After half an hour, they finally went back to the café where the car was parked. They paid the café for the time they've used their parking space and left from the place. By the time they got home, it was almost ten in the evening.

Stefan was holding her toys for her since she was holding the things that she bought from the night market. She pressed her index finger on the biometric lock and the two of them got inside.

"You can wash up first. I'll just arrange my things." Cayenne told him when they got inside their bedroom.

"You won't put this huge bear in between us, right?" Stefan questioned her hesitantly. He was worried that she'd be putting a wall between them after everything that happened to them.

"If I want to do something like that, I would've done it a long time ago."

Stefan was finally relieved after hearing her answer. He turned around to hide the smile on his face. He picked up his towel and chose his change of clothes while Cayenne was looking for a place where she can place the huge teddy bear.

She took out the wallet that she won from the shooting booth and placed it inside her bedside drawer, along with the other items that she bought from the night market.

Stefan didn't take long inside the shower and he came out after fifteen minutes. Cayenne got inside when he's done while he was left to dry his hair. Every time he took a shower first, he will dry his hair while Cayenne is inside the bathroom. When she's done showering, he will help her dry her hair for her.

The only time that he wouldn't do it for her was when they're arguing over something or their relationship had gone south and cold.

"Stefan?"

"Hn?"

Cayenne was finally out of the shower after almost twenty minutes and now, she was sitting on their bed with Stefan standing behind her, helping her dry her hair once again.

"I know that our date is fake but I really enjoyed it. Thank you so much."

Stefan paused for a while when he heard her statement but he quickly continued to dry her hair after few seconds. It was all his plan to make her fall in love with him and dumped her. Now, he was hesitating to continue his plan. 'Why is this happening? Everything should've been normal between us. She shouldn't be affecting me this much.'

If you don't know what love is, it would be difficult for you to recognize your feelings for the other person. The same with Stefan and Cayenne. She knows what love is and she knows that she's in love with Stefan. However, Stefan doesn't know what love is because no one, except Alexander, loved him since he was young. Therefore, he didn't realize that he was in love with her.

"Ayen?" It was his turn to call her now.

"What is it?"

"I…uh…I…I want to sleep."

Cayenne turned around to see his face because she knew that it wasn't what he wanted to say. "You can be honest with me. I won't judge you or anything."

"I'll tell you when I'm ready."

"Is that something so difficult to say?"

Stefan touched the back of his neck and lowered his head to avoid seeing her face. For the very first time since the two of them met, he felt so nervous. "It's a huge secret that no one else knows. I'll tell you when I'm ready."

"Sure. I don't mind. I'll always be here to listen to you."

'But you will definitely leave me if I tell you my secret.' Stefan responded mentally. It's a secret that he wasn't sure of. But Chris knew that secret. As the person who was the closest to both of them and knew the real situation, their emotions were crystal clear to him.

'The boss is probably in love with Cayenne.' This was what Chris thought in the past days. Sadly, the people involved couldn't tell.
