Chapter 5 - CHAPTER 5: HERE YOU ARE AGAIN

Two weeks has passed since the last time she saw Jenson. She was also busy with the school, teaching the children. She was handling kids age of six.

It was quite tiring but fulfilling moments every day. She has two assistants staying at her school.

She went home after her last student picked up by the parents. She has a policy that no one will leave her premises without their guardians to pick them.

She was so strict in those terms. Their responsibilities about the safety of the child enroll in her school. They accepted students in every class only 15 for them to focus more on learning individuals. So far, parents were satisfied with her school and it is a good thing for her.

TRUST AND SAFETY.

She was walking on the way to her house when she saw a car parking in the lawn. She was nearly in when the driver's car door opened. A tall handsome man came out of it and his name is Jenson Lee.

"Hi!" he greeted her with widen smile.

"Hi yourself!" she replied. "What are you doing here? Are you lost or something?" she said while putting the door key to her main door.

Jenson followed her to the house. "I miss you." He said that made Henna stopped walking.

She glared at him. "Jenson, are you drunk?"

"Of course not. Why? Is it wrong if I miss you?" he grinned.

Henna rolled her eyes as she put down her bag on the table. She drew her breath. "I will give you cold lemonade so that you will wake up from your illusion." She said as she opened the refrigerator.

"I am not kidding I just miss you." He insists.

"Yeah right." She raised her both hands into the air for surrender. "I will cook dinner and you… sit there." She pointed to the living room area. "And watch tv."

Jenson thumbs up and followed Henna's instructions.

Henna went to grab her things then straight to her bedroom. Just a few minutes she went back to the kitchen. She started cutting ingredients on the chopping board when Jenson came in.

"You want me to cook for you?" he asked.

"No, no I can handle this. You just watch on the television it will be over a few minutes." She said, as her hands were busy with the ingredients.

However, Jenson did not go back to the living room rather he sat on the counter stool looking at her. Henna got conscious with her work when she knew that someone's watching her from behind.

"I cannot concentrate with my cooking if you do that." She complained without turning her head back.

"What? What did I do now?" Jenson said.

"Stop watching me. I can feel it." She burst out. "Come here and help me so that we can eat."

Jenson smirked as he got up from the stool then help Henna.

They were starting talking with the work and his bar as if the intense moment between them were disappear. They were not feeling at ease even with some personal desire. But being friends is one thing they still treasure.

After the meal, Jenson asked Henna's permission to sleep over again in her house. However, she knew that every time Jenson did that. Since they were younger, he loves staying in their house. It is because his parents were not at home most of the time.

She says okay and let him used the guest room since it was already clean and properly arrange. There are no more scattered boxes and other stuffs inside.

Jenson went outside to his car when he came back, he was carrying a travelling bag. Henna surprisingly shocked.

"Wow, you are not prepared." She sneaked another look into his eyes while saying it loud. "Are you planning to move into my house?"

"If it is okay with you, why not!" He even answered her as if he is teasing her.

Henna rolled her eyes. Jenson caught her doing that again. "Don't do that in front of me."

"Huh! What?" then she rolled her eyes again.

"That!... rolling your eyes." He pointed it. "If you keep on doing that. I promise you will regret it."

Henna got scared not because Jenson looked like a killer but she was scared of him doing something to her that her heart could not take it.

She left Jenson as she instructed him to the guest room. She even says to him to feel at home. He is always welcome in her house if he wants to stay.

She was already at her bed using her breakfast table making lesson plan for the kids. Every night routine is the last thing she does before going to sleep.

She was beginning to think for another lesson when her door opened from the outside. She stopped and turned her head as Jenson walked towards her.

"I guess you are not yet sleeping." He said as he sat down beside her.

"Well, I was finishing my lesson plan for the next day and I already finished my lesson for tomorrow." She said while her nostril smelled the fragrance of the body wash, he was using.

"Okay." He smiled then slowly lay down to her bed.

Henna was dumbfounded with the attitude of him.

"What do you think you are doing right now?" she asked nervously.

"I will sleep here beside you." He said casually. "I love sleeping beside you since the last time I was here."

"Huh! You really are crazy Jenson Lee." Henna blushed as panic as she replied. "Maybe you are not used to sleep alone without a woman beside you."

Jenson stared at her. Henna regretted about the words she said after. It was inappropriate topic to say to him.

"I am so sorry I said that." She apologized.

"No, you are right I am a womanizer I know that." He agreed. "They are the one who also after me not me, you know."
