"No, no." Cindy hurriedly said, "I didn't mean it like that."
Cindy cupped Adrian Zhekova's face with both hands and looked at him intently.
For the first time, she took the initiative without Adrian having to say anything.
She leaned in slightly and kissed him on the lips.
Adrian's eyes were full of surging emotions.
Cindy's heart raced nervously: "Get…get up."
Adrian let her go but laid down on the bed, speaking in a hoarse voice, "You go first, I'll get up later."
Cindy, not yet grasping the situation, asked in confusion, "You want to sleep some more?"
Adrian revealed half of his face from the pillow and suddenly pulled Cindy, who had already sat up, back down.
Cindy stiffened as she understood the answer.
Adrian sighed, "This is so hard for me."
"Then…then…then," Cindy's tongue was tied, "You have to try by yourself!"
Adrian: "…"
What was he supposed to try on his own?
Cindy quickly fled the bedroom, her legs trembling.
