Chapter 4: Shock
Chapter 4
Skye took a deep breath as she stood in front of the door of Cloud's condo. He did not know if he should ring the doorbell or what. And he will admit, he is also nervous. Who is not nervous when a man sends you to his condo alone? Maybe what else would it do to him.
Skye dipped the pepper spray in the bag and then took some air. He was about to ring the doorbell when the door suddenly opened. What came out of him was his muscular chest and broad shoulders. The man was just wearing a shirt and fitted! His body was very tight in his shirt.
He looked so sexy.
Shit.
Skye immediately closed her eyes then closed her eyes tightly. "Oh, my God! Why are you wearing only a shirt? Change your clothes! Now! Speed!" he shouted at Cloud.
She heard no response from the man so she slowly removed her hand from covering her eyes. The naughty man, he was being laughed at!
Skye immediately lowered his hand that had just covered his eyes and tried to focus his gaze on her face. He will not be tempted to look at its body. Yeah, right. It was hard and maybe when he lowered he would see something different.
He looked at Cloud sharply and without a word entered his condo. He even collided head-on with the man when he passed by. Skye sat on the single sofa then looked around the condo. It was bland. Obviously the man lives.
He turned his gaze back to Cloud who was now standing in front of him. It folded while staring at him. He wanted to be fooled into thinking it. Was he planning her slow death?
"You're so cute, Skyeisha. I'm wearing a shirt and everyone, are you still shocked?" smiling Cloud said then sat on the sofa opposite where he was sitting.
"Do you care? Is it bad to be shocked? Do I look like I like to look at a man's body? Then I do not want to be angry when I see 'your body.' You look," Skye teased.
Instead of getting angry, Cloud just laughed. "Does that mean you haven't seen Charlie's body yet?"
Skye felt the redness on her face because of what she said. She doesn't think she knows about her liking for Charlie.
"Why would I want to see Charlie's body? I don't like him," he denied. He averted his gaze from the struggle in case the redness of his face was hidden.
"No? I have evidence—"
"Argh! You are so annoying! Fine. I really like Charlie. What do you want? Because no one likes you," he shouted at the man which caused his face to turn redder.
"You look so cute when you're blushing, Skyeisha," she said suddenly.
"I know, right. Stop calling me that. It's Skye!" he hit the man. He is not used to being called by his full name.
"I like Skyeisha. Or do you prefer I call you sweetheart?" Cloud smiled at him. His eyes were dancing with amusement.
"Heh!"
"Heh? For the kids, Skyeisha."
"I don't know about you!" he smirked at the man and looked at it sharply again but it seemed to have no effect on him. Probably because he knew she was holding him by the neck now.
Skye stared at Cloud. Cloud is really handsome (but he doesn't type it). So maybe he was angry when he laughed at it because maybe women used to worship it. As Skye grew older, the members of the Tennis Knights were all handsome — that was the group of elite tennis players in the club to which Cloud belonged.
Its hair is only moderately long. It was straight and very black. Its nose is pierced with red lips. Its eyes are what he can call its best asset as if it always attracts. Light brown is the color of its eyes in contrast to the pitch black lashes surrounding it. It seemed as if his eyes were always sparkling with mischief. He looked so playful every time he was smiling. And his smile would always reach his eyes.
It looks like it has a Korean but it does not remember who it is. He is not fond of Koreans. Gail is fond of such things.
Who is that? Think, Skye. Think.
"Why not take a picture? It will last longer," Cloud said proudly to him when he probably noticed her staring at it.
The heat immediately covered Skye's face because of this man's arrogance. "Your arrogance really! I'm just wondering which artist looks like—"
"Ji Hoo of Boys Over Flowers?" it cuts to what he says.
His eyes widened when he thought of the Korean actor he mentioned. This is right! Kim Hyun Joong looks like it! "You look like him. But only about one percent and Kim Hyun Joong is much more handsome than you."
Cloud frowned and lightly glared at him. "I'm more handsome there."
"Your illusion, monkey," he whispered. "Why are you sending me here?"
He noticed Cloud's sudden seriousness. But he did not believe that it was serious because his eyes were gleaming — perhaps because of the nonsense.
"You said you'll do anything, right? So I won't tell Les what I heard earlier?"
Skye nodded. "Yeah."
"I won't let Les' hear your recording if ..." it hung hanging over his head.
"If?"
"If you'll become my slave," Cloud concluded smiling. He was looking so proud of himself as if he found the cure for cancer. This prick!
He stiffened in his seat. He did not know if he had just made a mistake or if his hearing was really weak. He seemed to hear something different.
Slave? He?
"Did I hear it right? Slave?" he assured Cloud that he answered with a nod and a smile. "I object! What do you think of me? For your information, I am not like your other woman who is willing to commit suicide just to be with you! You are not porket handsome, I will just let you insult me! You want to imprison me? And excuse me "I'm still a virgin," he said proudly. He even swallowed it to have an effect.
Skye heard no response. Minutes passed by but still nothing. Cloud just looked at him like a fool.
Shock.
He was shocked.
It was the expression in his face. But it slowly disappeared and the expression that remained was amusement. A grin was slowly forming in his lips before laughing out loud.
As in he was LOL-ing. That fucking prick.
"What's funny?!" she was sick of the man.
Cloud rubbed his stomach. It still doesn’t stop laughing. "You think I'm going to make you my sex slave?" its question between laughter.
"Is it not?"
Her laughter grew louder when she probably noticed the astonishment on her face and the shock that still lingered in her system.
"Sorry to disappoint you, Skyeisha, but I'm not interested. I mean in my slave comment I will make you an assistant. Maid. Alalay," he clarified. The grin of this naughty man still lingers.
Skye's face turned red because of the stupid thing he said. She doesn't seem to be able to face this man anymore. It's too misleading. It should just be the maid it said. Why slave? Kaasar!
"I'm sorry! I thought ... Because ... Just! You're an apple!"
"Don't worry. I won't take your virginity," she teased him. He wants to grab her eyes right now.
Skye glared at Cloud and struggled with the redness on both cheeks. But he could still feel the heat of it. Annoying!
"I don't know about you! Find someone you're talking to. Abnormal!" he shouted at Cloud. He could no longer control himself and did something he never thought he would do in his entire life.
He talked about his face and walked out.
