Alex left after Kira took the coffee.
Kira's gaze followed Alex and she fell in a daze again, but she snapped back to her senses when she heard her phone ringing.
Kira hurriedly took her phone and answered it.
"Lea?"
"Kira!" Kira heard Lea's loud voice from the other line.
"Thank goodness you pick up the call immediately!" Lea said from the other line, her voice is tensed.
"Why, what's the matter?" Kira asked with her knitted brows as she heard Lea's loud voice from the other line.
"Hey, you almost gave me a heart attack last night! I was not able to sleep because of you!" Lea complained.
Kira's knitted brows got even deeper, "Why?"
"What did I do?" she asked.
"Have you not remember what you did yesterday night?" Lea asked her friend.
"Of course I do!" Kira replied.
"I invited you to a KTV, we had a drink and..." Kira tried to think what's happened next.
"And you got drunk." Lea finished Kira's word.
"I called your husband to fetch you up, but Alex suddenly came before your husband's arrival. He tried to help you but you hit him a few times and he did not even complain. You cry while saying, " I don't want to go home, I don't want to see you, I hate you!" Lea mimicked Kira.
Kira was stunned for a moment, "W-What?" she blurted out.
"A-Alex came to the KTV Bar?" She asked.
"Yes! And he tried to comfort you, girl."
" You even cry on his chest and fell asleep while leaning on his shoulder," Lea said in detail.
Kira gulped as she looked down at the coffee in her hand, 'It might be the reason why he's being nice to me today!' she said to her self.
"And you know what made me nervous, huh?!" Lea is not yet done.
"W-What?" Kira asked.
"Your husband saw you sleeping on Alex's shoulder!"
"What?!" Kira's voice raised which made the other teachers looked at her direction.
Kira bowed her head to her co-teachers and apologized.
She gets out of the admin office and continued to talk to Lea.
"Tim saw us?" Kira asked her best friend.
"Yes, he did!" Lea replied.
'Ohmo!' Kira felt anxious.
"My God Kira! I thought those two men will fight inside the KTV room!"
"If only Mr. Tan's gaze could kill, perhaps, Alex isn't alive now!" Lea added.
Kira suddenly remembers Tim's word this morning, 'I almost killed someone because of jealousy."
Kira's mouth went slightly opened!
'So, the "someone" he means was Alex?'
'He caught me leaning on Alex's shoulder!'
My God!
She felt like she's a wife who is caught cheating on her husband!
'My God Kira!'
'You almost cause big trouble!' Kira scolded her self.
-----
In the afternoon...
Kira is walking to the second gate, but her footsteps came to a stop when she notices Alex standing near the exit.
Kira thinks for a moment, she seems like she's having a second thought but she still chooses to continue walking to the exit.
"Kira!" Alex called Kira when he saw her coming to the exit.
Kira stopped and looked at Alex, " A-Alex." she responded.
Alex approached Kira.
"How are you feeling now?" he asked.
"Uhm... Good." Kira replied.
"Kira... "Alex stared at Kira, "You know you can talk to me if---"
" Alex, I'm fine now." Kira cut Alex's word.
"Whatever you heard last night, forget it," Kira added.
Alex's expression changed, "Kira, how could I forget it?" Alex asked.
"You are not happy with that man!" he added.
Kira looked at Alex straight to the eyes, "Alex, It was all just a misunderstanding between me and my husband. We already talked and fixed our misunderstandings."
"Thank you for your concern, Alex. I appreciate it. But I don't want to cause another misunderstanding between me and my husband and I don't want to put you in trouble. So, please, excuse me, I'll go ahead." After saying her word, Kira walks away and gets out of the gate.
Just then, Tim arrived and Kira rides in the car.
Alex just helplessly looked at Kira.
He lowered his head to hide the pain in his eyes.
He thought he could have a chance to be with her, but after hearing her words, Alex lost hope again!
He felt like someone clutched his heart and it feels painful!
He is regretful!
He was well aware of Kira's feelings towards him before, but he did not mind it that much.
He had a girlfriend then, and he sees Kira as a friend.
He did not expect that his feelings for her would change!
and it's too late!
There is no chance for them to be together.
If he could only turn back time when he was the one she liked, perhaps, he is the one who's with her now.
Alex snapped back to his senses when someone spoke beside him.
"I can help you get her." A man's voice said.
