Mmm.... Water..... Water...." Rose mumbles. She was feeling so thirsty. She somehow manage to get up. She was still drunk. She wake up in middle of night. There was no water in room. She went in kitchen and drink water. She went back in room. But she went in Ray's room. He was working. She silently lie in bed and sleep. Ray didn't notice her.

After completing his work, He went in Rose room to check if Rose need something. But she was not in her room. Ray panics and search all room. He saw Rose sleeping peacefully in his room. He smile.

" You are driving me crazy. I am searching you everywhere but you are here staying with me." Ray cover her and hug her.

" What should I do with you? You never listen to me. I just wanna hug you tight so you cannot go far from me." He hug her and speak.

" Sorry, Sorry.... I will not leave you. I am so sorry." She somehow feel guilty for what she did.

" How are you goona make it now?" He sound evil.

" What do you want me to do?" She smile and ask.

" You lie to me. You said you want only one kiss but you... you..."

" Then tell me how many time I kiss you?" He kiss her in chick.

" I... I don't know." She turn back.

" I was just teasing you. Don't be angry." He hug her.

" I am not angry. I just feel hot." She look at him and said.

" You are just too adorable." He kiss her again.

She just don't get why he kiss her again. But she didn't feel bad about being kiss. Suddenly she remember about Selina.

" Wait! Where is Selina? And why I am with you?" She rub her head trying to remember what happened yesterday.

Ray hold her hand and said, " Selina call me yesterday and said you are with her. So I came to pick you yesterday."

" Then what about Selina? Where is She? Is she alone? Why didn't you bring her here with me?" She ask him with lots of questions.

" So you forget."

" Forget what?" She look confuse.

" You call Zane and ask him to be with Selina. He came to pick Selina." Ray angrily said. He was jealous.

" SO, I call Zane. But I don't remember it." She smile and rub her hair.

" Let me ask you question. If you are in danger then whom will you call first?" He seriously ask.

" I will call Selina." Without any late she reply.

" What?" He shout.

" What happen? Are you fine?" She touch his forehead. He pull her hand and said, " Rose, I want you to call me first if you are in trouble."

" What? But why? Aren't you busy? I don't want to make you worry." She said in low voice.

" I want you to call me first. No matter what the thing is. Promise me." He angrily said.

" Okay I will. Now please leave your hand. You are hurting me." She said in low voice.

He release and hug her. " Now I will make breakfast for you." She push him and make breakfast for him. Ray was staring at her. She cannot concentrate in cooking. She push him outside the kitchen and said, " Stay here. I will make breakfast for you."

" No, I want to stay with you." He cutely smile.

Rose have no idea why Ray was acting sweet. She have never seen him acting this way. It was strange. She come close to Ray and put her hand in his forehead and ask, " Mr. Li, Are you sick? You are not Mr. Li right? Who are you?"

" I am your husband. Don't you believe me." He speak in sweet voice.

" No, You are lying. Mr. Li never speak like this. Tell me where is my husband." Her eyes fill with tears.

" So, You like me as I am." He hug her gently.

" Mr. Li..... Sob... Sob..." She burst out with tears.

After some time she calm down. He wipe her tears and ask her why did she think he was not her husband.

She said without hesitating, " It was because you are not gentle. But you suddenly speak sweetly."

" So, You mean I am not gentle." He angrily said.

" This is my husband." She smile and hug him. Rose feel relief that he became normal.

They both went in office together. But Rose went first as she don't other to misunderstand.
