Ophelia POV
I looked at Rio for some time who was in turn looking at me like the two of us were in some bit of staring competition. That was okay , what I thought that it could be.
I stared at him in a way that I was looking for some answers for what was taking place in my mind. I just thought that maybe I could get answers to the so many questions that were going on in my mind. However even with how much I did it, I still did not get any answer at all.
I doubted if he could do anything at all. I had so much that I really wanted him to ask about everything that was going on but at the same time I had no idea about where I was even to begin from. I was afraid that it could turn into something else.
However even with all this, I swear I was going to try and see where this was going to lead to if I surely wanted to solve even a quarter of what I was going through at the moment. I went on opening my mouth but at the end of it there was nothing …there was really nothing that was actually coming out of my mouth.
Awkwardly, I turned around and started to once again started to fidget around as I was putting water into the kettle. I did not dare look back to see what he was doing but still I could tell that he was really still there.
“You seem to be disturbed ?” his husky voice startled me to the point that I had nearly fall to the ground since I did not expect him to say anything at all however before I could fall down, a pair of strong hands were right in place to help me rise back properly to my feet.
I rose my head and my eyes got into contact with Those of my son in law and then held for some time before I looked away .My eyes unconsciously travelled towards his lips.
There and then I found my self anticipating at that feeling that I had when his lips were pressed onto mine during that time. The fact was that I did not want to even think about it bit then ever if I wanted to stop thinking about out , I was still some how not able to achieve a sense of amnesia.
“Thank you.” I murmured and immediately got out of his hold.
“I will be getting the cups ready .” I said trying to avoid him and moved towards the cupboards to get some cups . Actually the trick behind it was actually for me to get away from him . it was actually being hard for me to be with him in a room only the two of us.
At this time, I thought that he could get out of the kitchen but he did not get out . I was actually at the same time worried that his wife could suspect that there was something between the two of us and yet that is something that am trying as much as possible to avoid and not think about it.
“I need to talk to you.” He said suddenly. What the hell, this startled me as well, I had mixed reactions towards that statement. What did h want from me in the first place? As far as I knew it my daughter was only tow rooms from here and as we all know , it is widely said that walls have ears,
What if he was actually having another second thought and wanted to kiss me again. How could I be able to over come that again yet I am still fighting with something that I don’t even know he the trouble causer might be.
I did not turn around to hear what he said . I in fact went on and pretended like I had not heard what he had actually said. I was afraid of something that I could particularly not put a name to.
“Ophelia, I really need to talk to you.” He said again and trust me this time I had to look back and look at him. He had once again moved towards me but he was still a bit far away .
This time around, I got the courage to stare into his eyes. Those gorgeous eyes which my daughter told me that it is actually one of the things that she fall so deeply in love with.
I looked a head to the door so worried that my daughter might get out any time as at this point I am afraid that she can find out about anything .
“You don’t need to worry about her at all, she stepped out of the house to meet Melisa.” Rio informed me when she saw that I was actually looking at the door . I swear this some how calmed me a bit.
“Okay, what do you want to talk about?” I asked him.
“Nothing much , I just want to talk about you.” He said calmly sounding so gentle. He was meant for my daughter without any doubt .
“You see, I think you agreed when we talked and said that we are not talking about the kiss any more. “He went on to say but the paused on a bit .
I was so dumb folded when he said that . I swear I did not expect him to be saying any of those things that he actually said. I just looked on and waited to see where this was going to head to for sure.
“You were so uncomfortable when we got in. I swear I could see that . I mean not only me but any one else.” He went on to say . I looked at him and wondered if it was right for me to tell him about what was going on in my life.
But as I told you, I did not know about whom to trust any more. I did not know whom I could in fact tell about this specifically. About this thing that was making me go crazy.
He stood there looking at me which was clear that he was waiting for my response without any doubt. I how I wish he knew all that I was going through. It was so absurd.
