Jeffrey and Roxanne are having breakfast together in the dining room. They were chatting together, when later they turned to the source of the sound of footsteps that were increasingly heard in their ears.
"Ah, here you are."
Without answering Felix's words, Roxanne continued eating and occasionally reconnected her conversation with Jeffrey. Felix is a little annoyed when Roxanne doesn't answer him and instead prefers to continue the small talk with his brother. Fine, if that's what Roxanne wants. Felix himself can also do what he wants now.
"Too bad," Roxanne and Jeffrey turned to Felix who was already beside Roxanne and pulled up a chair, "I have to skip my breakfast earlier."
Roxanne has a confused look while Jeffrey shakes his head feeling Felix is playing with fire here. Oh come on. Jeffrey knew what Felix meant. He's not stupid.
"Then hurry up and eat." Roxanne said casually.
"Wow? Seriously?" Felix teases Roxanne more and more. Meanwhile Roxanne is confused by Felix's answer. How ridiculuous. Even though the food was already in front of the man, why was he acting like he had to ask her permission?
"What's wrong with you?"
Felix chuckled. Then, he brought his lips to Roxanne's ear and whispered, "I want my breakfast, Xyxy."
Roxanne felt the hairs on her backs rise after hearing Felix's whisper in her ear. And, from that voice too, she immediately understood what Felix meant from earlier. Gosh, can this guy stop teasing her? It sucks.
See? Maybe now her cheeks had turned red when Felix kissed her cheek. Instantly, she also realized that Jeffrey was still in front of her. When Roxanne turns to Jeffrey, she only sees that the man continues with breakfast. It's just that Roxanne thought she saw Jeffrey's muffled smile there. Geez!
Roxanne pushes Felix's body away from him. She had been embarrassed enough since this morning. "Just eat your breakfast that's on the table, Felix." Roxanne said, then she cleared her throat. Trying to restore her almost lost voice.
Felix complied even though he was laughing right now. In fact, his head incessantly turned to the side — looking at Roxanne who already felt anxious to leave her place.
"When are you two getting engaged?" asked Jeffrey suddenly.
UHUK UHUK!
Roxanne choked on her drink at the sudden question Jeffrey asked. Her eyes were rounded at Jeffrey. Trying to warn the man 'What kind of question is that?' but she could only cough at this time.
Felix rubs Roxanne's back lightly so that the woman can feel a little relieved after choking.
"Brother. Roxy is very sensitive about that topic." Said Felix, warning Jeffrey. However, Roxanne could catch Felix's tone as if he was teasing her.
"Ah, I know what kind of woman my future sister-in-law is." Said Jeffrey who then laughed with Felix.
What is this? Roxanne doesn't believe she has to be in the midst of these siblings' silliness. They are very happy to tease women apparently.
"But, take it easy, brother. We'll be engaged in a moment."
Just now Roxanne felt relieved that she no longer felt the effects of choking. But, this demon man is acting up again. And what? We? Engaged? Soon? Seriously!
"Who the hell is..." Roxanne turns to Felix for an explanation.
"Sssshhh, I know babe. I know you can't wait. But, we also need preparation. And you are the one who need the most preparation." Felix said without waiting for the continuation of Roxanne's previous sentence.
Roxanne closed her eyes feeling Felix always playing around like this by himself. Meanwhile, Jeffrey, the man had finished his breakfast and moved from his place.
Roxanne has also finished her breakfast, so she intends to leave her place. However, before she even got up from her place, Felix grabbed her arm and pulled her back into her chair.
"Wait for me, roxy." Felix said.
Roxanne, without answering again, just sits quietly again while resting her chin on her hands. For a moment, Roxanne forgot about Felix's crazy behavior and chose to remain silent.
"Ah, yes." Roxanne lifted her chin and turned to look at Felix who was still eating.
"What?" Felix felt that she had something to say to him, so he turned to Roxanne too and stopped eating for a while.
"Hmm," Roxanne looks doubtful, "about that last night."
"Last night?"
"Am I really not doing strange things?" Roxanne asked in her small voice.
Felix cocked his head. "Strange thing? Like what?"
Roxanne looks nervous. She herself doesn't know why she should ask, because usually Felix only responds with jokes or lies to tease her. She looks embarrassed now.
"Yes, strange things like.... You know, when people are drunk they must be doing strange things out of their mind, right? Did I do it?"
"I see. Let me think about it. I forgot the truth a little." Felix lied as he folded his arms and smiled.
Wait, why is Felix smiling? Roxanne thinks this man is lying to her. "You're not lying to me, are you?" Roxanne narrowed her eyes.
"I swear, if you did, I'll-"
"What? What are you going to do, xyxy?"
Checkmate. Roxanne swallowed her own saliva. She did not have time to think about what threat she would give Felix. Argh, she should just believe what Felix said earlier.
"I… I will… I will get out of here!" Roxanne exclaimed.
Felix raised his eyebrows. A split second later, he chuckled. Gosh, why is Roxanne so cute.
Roxanne is confused why Felix is laughing like that. "What are you laughing at? Do you think this is all funny? I'm really going to get out of this house."
Felix stopped his laughter slowly. "Gosh. You know, Roxy. You can never run away from me, if that's your threat." Roxanne widened her eyes when she felt she was being teased by Felix, "and after all, no matter how far you go from me, I'll always be able to find you." He continued with a serious face.
Roxanne felt that Felix's current gaze was able to lock her mouth tightly. In fact, her body could only be silent. Of course her brain gave her orders to fight Felix again. But, she couldn't. Not at this time. When Felix made her shut up or move even a minute.
"Mom won't let me take you to the office, right?"
Roxanne cleared her throat. "I've made an appointment with her too. We'll take a walk later."
"Good. You won't get bored here. At least, it will keep you away from doing your threat earlier." Said Felix with an amused chuckle.
