Alice didn’t notice, however. Besides, even if she ate it with the utmost discretion, the cream would stick to her anyway.
-By the way, I know you don’t like sweets, so I bought all sweet,” Alice said distractedly.
“Did she do that to me on purpose?” thought Kennedy.
-“But how do you know my taste? -She glared at her through the mirror.
Alice was suddenly stunned by his reckless words, then explained, “I guess. Because the coffee I made you was bitter. If you like it sweet, you’ll add sugar.
While Kennedy kept looking at her cream-stained lips, because he felt so uncomfortable.
They were just prevented by the red light.
Then Kennedy approached her and extended a hand to reach her head and kissed her, or rather, wiped the cream with his lips taking advantage of the kiss.
Surprised by this unexpected kiss, Alice stood still.
After a dominated silence, Kennedy pressed his forehead to hers, looking at her tenderly.
-Who said I didn’t like it sweet? -Then she smiled, licking the corner of her lips, “How sweet!
Until then Alice realized that he was stuck with the cream and looked at him dumbfounded.
-Don’t seduce me while I’m driving,” said Kennedy.
-Is eating cake a seduction to you? -muttered Alice angrily and went back to eating a large piece, “What a sin am I!
As Kennedy laughed, “I see you don’t want to go to the airport, we’re going to the hotel now, okay?
Then Alice fell silent, silently eating the cake, but there was still a lot of candy left in her bag, so she said, -If you like candy, I’ll leave the rest to you.
The ride took about half an hour, but with how full Alice was and how bored she felt, she felt like taking a nap.
-Sleep, I’ll let you know later,” Kennedy said tenderly.
-Okay,” she barely answered him, Alice fell asleep without realizing it, while Kennedy turned up the temperature in the car and drove slower.
So it took twenty minutes longer than planned.
Until the phone rang, Alice woke up, arriving at the airport without realizing it.
It was Rachel calling.
-Aunt Raquel,” she greeted her as she looked at Kennedy, but he didn’t show any astonishment.
-I’ve already arrived at the airport,” answered Raquel, “I’m on my way out now, is he coming? -She suddenly said in a low voice that he didn’t hear her if he didn’t listen to her carefully.
-Yes,” said Alice.
-Then I’ll see you at the exit.
It wasn’t until then that Alice noticed his sudden low voice, because he didn’t want Kennedy to get suspicious.
-You wait in the car or…” No sooner had Alice finished than Kennedy got out of the car and took off her jacket to wrap it around her, “Put it on, you’re going to catch cold.
-Just a moment,” Kennedy stopped to fix her buttons.
-But I’m not cold,” said Alice.
-You’ve just woken up, and it’s very cold in here,” said Kennedy in his usual imposing tone.
-But if it’s cold, do you need it too!
As Kennedy’s hands reached up to her ear, with them he caressed it and whispered to her, “I am a man.
“How stubborn! But you’re no machine.” Alice murmured, and the smiles reached her lips without realizing it.
