It was about twenty minutes later when they arrived at Mark’s villa… and after the car stopped, Xavia weakly asked, “…Would you like to come with me?”
Staring at her tiny face, he simply replied, “It’s fine. I’ll wait here.”
Though his response was simple, it showed that he truly trusted her, and she couldn’t help but feel a warmth in her heart. What an understanding man… In the end, she couldn’t help but kiss his cheek before saying, “…Time me while I’m gone, alright? I’ll kiss you once for every minute I’m gone…”
With that said, the blushing woman quickly ran off, leaving Zivon rather speechless. Gently placing his hand on where she had kissed, he couldn’t help but smile a little. Though that witty woman could infuriate him like no other, she was also the only person who could make him feel this loved… Was this the true essence of love…? Sugar sweetness and bitter pain in one? What a torturous cycle… Shaking his head, he then began smoking a cigarette…
Before he was even halfway done, he heard footsteps approaching the car. Looking out, he saw that it was Xavia, though she appeared rather downcast… Putting out his cigarette as she entered the car, he was prompted to ask, “Why the long face?”
“…I… asked him about that night, and…”
Seeing that she couldn’t even complete her sentence, Zivon could tell that things had gotten handsy back then. Even so, he had already accepted it, so he simply held her hands and replied, “I’ve already told you that I didn’t mind-”
“Just kidding!” interrupted Xavia as she smiled widely and hugged him tightly. Before Zivon could even reply, she was quick to add, “He told me that nothing had happened that night, and that he had only said all that to annoy you since you were pissing him off yesterday. He even had some dashcam footage to prove it. I’m glad I didn’t end up sleeping with another man, and I love you, Von!”
