CHAPTER 122

Rebecca lay down on the bed, but she couldn’t sleep. Everything she had done that day was still prettyfresh in her mind.

She couldn’t believe she had experienced so many positive moments in just one day. Some of the thingsshe only dreamed as a teenager actually came true. She held his hands and walked together. Sat undera tree and ate and talked and laughed together. Though she didn’t get to fish, she didn’t mind that at all.After all, she had experienced enough memorable moments that she wouldn’t be able to forget, probablyforever.

However, the only thing she regretted was that she couldn’t put her arm around his shoulders in thesame way he couldn’t. “I saw him hesitating to put his arm around my shoulders, but I couldn’t react to it.Now, I wish I put my arm around his shoulders. I missed doing such a cool thing.” Though she had datedmany men, she had never held their hands or been close with them, so everything that had happenedtoday was kind of a first for her. So, despite all the awkward moments they shared together, she was stillover the moon.

She put earphones on and started listening to music. As the songs played, she felt like seeing him again.

“I really felt his love today, but did he feel mine?” her heart was troubled at this thought. “I’m not good atexpressing myself like him through words let alone poems, so how will I make him feel my love? Should Imake a fine suit for him?”

She got up from bed and began to draw the suit and added minimal styling. A few minutes later.Benjamin jumped over the villa’s wall and snuck into the garden. The dogs noticed him and ran towardhim. He knelt down and greeted them. The puppies in the cages began barking loudly and wagging theirtails, as though they also wanted to meet him. Puppies were kept in cages during the night, and so theycould only watch from behind the bars. Benjamin had to spend a few minutes with the dogs before they

went their ways. After that, he ran to the villa and jumped at once and reached the window on the firstfloor. It was open, so he rolled inside, making little to no sound in the process. The lights were off, asexpected. Rebecca generally slept early.

“How can you sleep without fulfilling your promise, Rebecca? This is not fair,” he thought. “If you don’tkiss me, then at least let me kiss you. I’ll only kiss you two times, no, four times, no, just eight times.” Hereached the bed on toes and silently slipped under the duvet. He sniffed twice. “She smells strange. Isshe using a different soap these days?”

His hand gently touched her head and felt it. He just wanted to make sure he was kissing where hewanted to before proceeding, and he did. Just as his lips stretched forward and kissed the cheek, hiseyes adjusted to the darkness and saw the face of that person. His eyes popped out of his sockets.

At the same instant, the kiss forced her eyes to open. She could feel someone was in her bed, and shescreamed at the top of her lungs. “AHH!” she tossed the duvet aside and switched the light on.

“Who is it?” she looked to her right hastily, but there was nobody on the bed. She checked under thebed. No one there, either. “I was sure I felt someone touch my head and…” she put her hand on hercheek. She still had the faint feeling of being kissed by someone. She noticed that the door was lockedbut a window was open, so she hurried there and looked out. The dogs were playing with each other.Everything seemned normal. She pulled the glass window down and walked over to the mirror. She waswearing teddy bear pajamas. She faintly smiled, with a tinge of pride flowing out. “Even when you wakeup in the middle of the night, you still look stunning, Selena. No one your age can match your glamor.”

She then went back to her bed. “I thought one of my fans had finally gone insane and snuck into myroom, but I was clearly wrong. After the recent leaks, it’s better that I don’t meet my fans for a while, or I’donly be embarrassing myself.

“Anyway, I changed to this room so that I could send my daughter to another room and take away hermemories of living here with Trashmin. But I still feel uncomfortable in this new bed. I’m not able to sleep

well. Maybe, I should just get my old bed into this room tomorrow.” She switched the lights off and wentto sleep.

In the garden, Benjamin came out of the bushes. His whole body still felt goosebumps. “Whoo … thatwas really close. If she had seen me, it would have been over for me!” he shook his head. His heart wasstill pounding. “And to think I kissed that devil. Bwuah,” he felt like vomiting. He rubbed his mouth a fewtimes. “But, wait, what the heck is she doing in Rebecca’s room? Why the heck is she sleeping inRebecca’s bed? Then where is Rebecca right now? Which room is she sleeping in?”

He still hadn’t given up after such a massive failure. His adrenaline was still running. His other importanthormones were still very much in action, pushing him to go and get his reward. “Where are you, mydarling Rebecca?” His eyes darted at different windows on the first floor. His ears heard a faint noisecoming from a room. It was the noise of the songs playing in Rebecca’s earphones.

Benjamin entered that room. The lights were still on, and Rebecca was sleeping with the earphonesfallen out to the sides on the pillow. He came up to the bed and noticed the designs she was making forthe suits. Out of the seven designs, he picked one. A simple double-layered gray suit. He left a tick markon that one.

Afterward, he stared at Rebecca for a couple of minutes and smiled joyously as he remembered all thethings that happened that day. He then pulled the blanket on and covered her up to her neck. Her lipsinvited him for a kiss, but he shook his head. “No, no. That’s gotta be consensual,” he backed away for asecond. “But…” he leaned forward and kissed the tip of her nose. “I think this is okay?” he paused for asecond, and his eyes were getting pulled back to her pretty pink lips. He shook his head. “No. No. No. Ithink I’m going crazy. If I stay here longer, I’ll replace all sorts of excuses to kiss her on the lips.” He switchedthe lights off and left the room the same way he came.

As he jumped over the villa’s wall and left, two figures from the villa noticed him. They were

Louis and Bella.

“Why did you let him go?” Louis asked her. “He came at the right hour. I could have had some fun.”

“No,” Bella looked toward the distant tall building and noticed the masked figure sitting on the edge of therooftop and playing a mouth organ. It was Shadow. “There’s this strange guy watching our villa for thepast thirty minutes. We don’t want any unnecessary attention. Standing close to this window isn’t good,either. Let’s get back to bed.” They went back to bed and cuddled with their children.
