Chapter 2
What impresses her is what he said, only true love should be the one to kiss her.
She was startled when his arms suddenly wrapped around her waist. At the same time, he put his head on her shoulder. She put down the spatula she was holding and jokingly slapped his arm around her waist.
“Eros! Can’t you see that I’m doing something! ” she said to her friend but did not remove his arms from her body. She could smell his familiar smell. Bvlgari for men.
During the time she and Gabby were friends, she was used to him and his antics. It was not new for him to hug her. He was just like that. "Touchy," he said. Also, she knew there was no malice in it.
For Pete’s sake, they’re the best of friends!
He gave her a light kiss on the cheek and slightly hugged her before releasing her. She confronted the friend who was now busy licking the icing next to him.
Oh. Didn't she say that this friend of his was addicted to sweets?
For twenty two years, she doesn’t have any friends. She is shy. So she wanted to be a Pastry chef so that she could only be confined to one room and not associate with others.
She only thinks of Gabby.
"Don't touch that, Eros!"
He smirked. "You know I can't resist sweets, Psyche, baby."
She rolled her eyes at him. From the pocket of her bag she pulled out a small bar of chocolate and handed it to the man. "Oh, just eat this."
He reached for it and again kissed her lightly on the cheek. He was so touchy like this ever since.
Sometimes their parents also wonder if she really has a relationship with Gabby. They seem to be too "close." She would just laugh at them. That would be incest, she thought.
"What brings you here?" she asked to the man but the attention was turned to the cake she was designing.
He folded his arms as he chewed on the chocolate bar she had given him. "I just missed you. Is it bad to visit my best friend? ” he said softly.
If she did not know him well, she would think he was saying the truth. “I missed you, too. So, why are you really here? ”
He shrugged. "Kimmy died."
She approached her friend and hugged him. She knew how close Kimmy was to him. "I'm sorry to hear that."
He gently prodded her forehead. "Treat me to a pancake tower, babe."
"Sure!" she quickly consented. “Just go outside. I'll follow. I will just put these away. ” she said and moved the things on the table.
He nodded and left the kitchen.
