Chapter 17 - Chapter 17: I Was Wrong

I went to his drawers and tried searching for some spare clothes. Some of my clothes were in the laundry so I decided to borrow his

I didn't really bother asking for his permission. As I put on my clothes. I proceeded outside as I was greeted with him still on the phone

"Have you eaten?" I questioned judging by his expression

"Not really I was waiting for you to wake up" he replied

"You didn't have to do the courtesy and wait for the lady? Isn't it quite absurd? You should prioritize yourself and your own health not mine" I scolded him while I cross my arms in disbelief

I saw him covering his cheeks as if masking the light red tint on his cheeks. I didn't want to point it out further.

I saw him trying to compose his own thoughts.

"I'm flattered that my wife is concerned with my own condition but I'm fine. The real reason I waited for you is I have something important to discuss. It would be nice to tackle it with breakfast?" he stated with a small smile in his face

"I don't mind" I stated as he followed me to the kitchen. There was a beautifully made breakfast that could be mistaken to be served by a professional chef

He acts more of a housewife than me. We sat down on the table

"What do you want to speak about? Is it something important. That shouldn't be taken lightly?" I asked as I took my first bite

I tried not squeal because of the amazing taste and aroma of the food. Neither do I thought that I would enjoy his cooking ever

"I have project to assign to you" he stated

My eyes immediately drifted to his face asking if he was serious. He simply pat the top of my head

"Didn't you want to be independent? Well technically this is only a small project because the board didn't want you to hold one of the bigger projects since they still don't have faith in you but, I'm sure you can do it" he explained

A small smile formed between my lips

"I will send you the details later"

"Can I have a favor?"

"What is it?"

"Can my old subordinates support me in this new project? I have fully trusted them ever since I started my career. They work diligently and efficiently too" I said looking forward for him to approve

"You can use whoever you want you are the boss after all. You can do what you think suits best to your choice of working" he stated

"Then I shall give it my all"

I finished eating so did he. I took his plate and place it on the dishwasher. I pressed a few buttons and the machine started cleaning it automatically

"Are wearing my sweatpants?" he questioned as he stared at my clothes

"Yes, I forgot to do the laundry yesterday which I had no choice to borrow this. Do you mind? Me wearing this?" I stated

"Not really, it's quite surprising" he stated while he awkwardly rubbed the side of his arm.

"It's your first time seeing someone wear this?" he nodded in reply as I rolled my eyes

"Most of your ex girlfriend are probably shorter than you. The only thing they could wear is your shirt perhaps the shirt even dangles down their thighs"

"You might even think of it as attractive. I don't know your preferences but judging by your frame and height. You like girls that are shorter than you to give you a boost of confidence" I continued as I lay down on the sofa

A face promptly appeared at my sight of view. As Dylan gaze at me. His head was upside down

"Your also shorter than me? What's your point?" he asked, with a sly grin plastered on his face

I abruptly stood up then turned my gaze at him. My cheeks were completely red in embarrassment. He had a smug look on his face because of achieving to breakdown my normal compose stature

"There is no point, I'm simply stating what my opinion is of what kind of girl you prefer. What is it though?" I asked as I analyze his expression

"Well I have no preferences apparently if I voice about my opinion on women they would probably assume that I'm body shaming so, I don't want to bring them down just to satisfy your curiosity" he explained courtly as if choosing the right words in his head

I placed one of my finger on my chin as I decipher what he said. I was somehow surprised with his answer

"I apologize, I have mistaken you for a different kind of person. I might even appear rude earlier" I sincerely stated as I sighed at my past actions

"I have also mistaken you, I never expected for you to apologize"

"I have my own morals. I apologize what I think is wrong. Especially if I'm the one in the position who is in fault. I can also notice my own mistakes. Your not so evil afterall."

"..." I heard him mumble but I couldn't comprehend what he said

"Pardon?" he swiftly turned his head and gave me a small smile as if hiding what he said earlier

"Know that you mentioned, what was your first impression of me exactly?" he asked while leaning his head towards me which, I placed my palm on his face and gently pushed him further

"An eye sore" I admitted with no second thought. He lightly gasped as he clenched his chest

"Well that gave me mental and emotional damage " he said while wiping his fake tears. I rolled my eyes at his exaggerated reaction

"Perhaps I judge you too quickly" as he nodded his head. I could sense his nose is getting longer

"Exactly, I'm a great and amazing guy. I'm handsome and very competent. I can't believe you didn't fell in love with me at first sight" he stated with pure confidence which annoyed me

"I take it back"
