" You're Soo emotional I get that. Why did you sorta pressure me to agree to get married, is there someone?... Are you?"
" Nothing, absolutely nothing. I just needed, someone needed to remind you that you'll have to reproduce if you'll need to continue your legacy". She explained in the most frantic way possible hoping he would not push her any further or ask her if she had feelings for him.
' I have never seen Cristal this scared before, like she's hiding something '. Aeron spoke to himself then again it did not escape him that Cristal has been acting weird lately towards him.
All of a sudden she was asking him about how he feels and if he wanted a partner does that mean " Cristal do you?..."
Her nightmare was about to become a daymare because her biggest fear was happening now in the sunlight and she could not stop it.
" Let's play a game" she quickly came up with this idea to sway him from saying what if he did she would be a margarine right now.
Aeron had noticed the little sweat lines on her face. " Cristal you're sweating".
She felt a sweat drop onto her her neck rolling down. " Let's just go inside right now shall we?".
He held her hands and she moved out of shock. He noticed it and immediately looked at her. " Sorry" she laughed shortly. " Maybe it's the contact, I mean current. Maybe".
She had expected him to laugh but unlike him he did not. He held her and walked with her to their room.
Cristal cried within herself knowing she let her emotions get the best out of her, exposing that she may or may not have feelings for Aeron. And she clearly saw it, the suspicion in his eyes that he had a glint of what was going on but he did not want to talk about it.
She walked in silence with her head held up straight. When they got to the room she walked underneath the fan to get herself cooled up.
" You can take off your shirt if you're feeling hot". Her heart flapped it's wings out of her chest. She stopped breathing.
" Don't make it awkward". He immediately warned her and her sanity came back. He sounded angry. ' I knew it, he doesn't like me'.
Judging the scenario she found herself she knew that he had found out her crush towards him. Everything that felt more like a friendship was shattered because she kept on fantasizing a lot.
She took off the shirt and she was left with her bra top and skirt. She stood there for a while looking at him to really understand what was going on in his mind but she didn't need to do that because he was already pissed off.
When she felt dry she walked over to her side of the room not saying a word. Lifting her eyes from the ground she saw his gaze shooting at her like a pistol. She almost gasped.
" Where are you taking me?" Zillah asked Alvah who was leading her to the dining area because he wanted to eat.
When they got there he took out a seat for her and she smiled, sitting next to her he asked. " Would you like to have breakfast with me?"
Her smile brightened. " Yes. I love the gesture ". She chuckled. He got a few plates dishing out the soup and the rice. He included fruits and some salad because he liked to stay healthy. With some juice beside them.
He got two spoons, with one in his hands. He took the rice, holding her jaw gently, she widened her mouth and he fed her the rice with the chicken soup.
He scooped a few times and she ate with no complaints neither did she talk. He scooped another rice with the chicken on top, she widened her mouth even more making sure it doesn't drop to the ground and he laughed seeing her cute face and she immediately pouted looking at him.
And he lost it, he bursted into laughter dropping the spoon down to the plate holding his face in his palm.
" You're laughing at me Alvah?". She asked him in utter shock and disbelief.
" No I'm not".
" Why are laughing Alvah?". She held his hands and looked him in the eye. " It's just, besides being beautiful, you look Soo cute trying to eat a huge portion ".
" But you fed it to me". She put on a cute act instantly going with the flow and he fell for it. " Yeah I did, it's my fault, I'm sorry ".
He grinned and reduced the size and brought it to her mouth but she frowned at him. There was Zillah's true reaction to this. Alvah's grin slowly faded.
She silently took the spoon from him. " Wait no Zillah I really didn't mean it ".
She took it from him. She took a scoop and held his chin indicating for him to open up his mouth " ahhh".
He did as she commanded when he heard her speak he had butterflies in his belly and he hated it. " You haven't had your share, let me feed you".
Just as silent as she was when he was feeding her. He was silent as well. He took the other spoon, feeding her to complete her meal. They both fed each other. When they were done, they gulped down the fruit juice. Alvah took a bunch of grape in a bowl with him. With Zillah's hands in his other hand.
" I'll catch up with you later I'll be back". She said leaving him.
Cristal did not like the look Aeron had on her so she got up to leave the room and she still noticed his eyes on her.
She left uncomfortable regretting her actions earlier and had wished she just stayed quiet.
She sat in the living room resting on one of the many soft couches. Zillah walked into the living room. " Just the girl I was looking for". She walked faster towards her and Cristal sat upright. " Why are you here what happened to you?". Zillah asked with concern
