"Is it really okay?" The housekeeper hesitated. It was the long-standing tradition that servants should not eat with their masters that had been holding her back. She was classified as a servant and the thought of it bothered her a lot.
"Of course, it's okay. Come and take a seat!" Leena smiled in a comforting way. She was always easy-going in the Leng's house. It was the very reason why everyone liked her a lot.
"Okay. I'll take a seat since you said that." The housekeeper finally compromised and sat down carefully. She wasn't able to relax though and remained acting over-cautiously during the meal.
It was after dinner that Leena proposed to go back to the Gu's house. That earned an automatic rejection from Kevin though. He wanted to take advantage of this chance to spend some time alone with her. The ambiance there was nice and the place was beautiful. It would be the perfect place to relax.
"Are you feeling cold?" Kevin reached out and started buttoning her coat. He was concerned that she might catch a cold as the temperature outside was relatively lower. He didn't think that her coat was warm enough.
"No, I'm not, " Leena replied shortly. There was a lot of things she wanted to say but then just swallowed her thoughts. She wanted to tell him that no matter how cold it was, she would always feel as warm as the spring or as hot as the summer as long as he was holding her hands. She knew that the thoughts were too dramatic, thus, she felt shy to blurt them out.
"I'm sorry for what happened today, Leena. You would not be wronged so much if it were not because of me, " Kevin stopped and apologi bit. You don't have to comment about what I said. That's all I want. I don't think it's such a big thing to request for, right? So you might as well tell me what you are to say before you change your mind." Leena bit her lips after she forced herself to say those words. She was so pressured about what Kevin was about to tell. She knew that they would eventually talk about this problem and there would be no escape from it.
"Don't worry! I would never talk with you about this if I hadn't let go of my feelings for her yet. To be more precise, I've already lost all my feelings for Daisy. She is not the one who owns my heart anymore. I still care for her because I consider her to be one of my best friends. Just like how Rain and Tom feel for you, my feelings for Daisy have nothing to do with love. It is purely just family affection now." A melancholic smile spread through Kevin's face. Yes! It was just impossible for his heart to beat for Daisy now! How would that even happen when the woman who belonged to him and he cared for the most was just standing next to him, right?
