Leslie's words widened Calix's eyes in astonishment. He stared at her smiling profile without saying anything as if his speech was robbed from him.
What did she say?
Did she just say that...
"Hehe, surprised?"
Leslie playfully patted one side of Calix's face, amused to see such a dumbfounded reaction from him. Her chuckles rang in the quiet bedroom as she continued locking eyes with the man.
Pulling himself out of his trance, Calix rapidly blinked his eyes. Despite understanding the meaning behind Leslie's words, he couldn't help but be surprised.
Leslie... she had such thoughts before? Toward him?
Calix parted his trembling lips, wanting to say something but, no words flowed out from his mouth. Leslie's shy smile was reflected in his widened eyes.
Aiya, she didn't expect her words to have such an effect on him.
