Calls Were Left Unanswered Camila waited anxiously as she was worried by the time that South was able to execute the mission, Silas would already be awake.
light push was heard at the door. He entered with a pair of suits. Camila gestured an OK with her hand before signaling for him to return to his room. At that very moment, Silas’s cell phone rang. A startled Camila almost tried to cover his ears with her hands. Who could have called at this hour? As she turned her head, she found herself staring into his gaze. Oh no! He’s awake now. Her brain went blank as her eyes darted everywhere. With the fear that he would see South, she immediately turned his head without even thinking about it. Before Silas knew what was going on, she planted her lips on his. He was stunned, but only for a short while. As they locked lips, his gaze grew more intense. Camila met his gaze and let out a light cough. “Why are you still asleep?” Silas was very much awake by that point. He could care less about what she wanted to do and immediately threw an arm around her waist before using another hand to hold the back of her head and gave her another passionate kiss.
Camila thought, Must it be this difficult to throw him a surprise?
She felt like she was playing a seductress in a spy movie. Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
After spending some time cuddling her on the couch, Silas finally released her from his embrace and asked affectionately, “What took you so long? I fell asleep while waiting for you.” She giggled. “How is that so? It is not even that late and you’re already asleep. What were you up to last night?” He laughed. “You sound like you don’t trust me. How about I spend the night here and you’ll be able to discover what I’m up to on a nightly basis?” Camila shot him a stare. “What you want to do is your own business. Who wants to know about it?”
Silas pinched her cheeks. “That’s what you said, but do you really think like that?”
He then realized something and looked around. “Hasn’t Brian arrived yet?”
Camila seemed to notice that as well. Silas is right. Brian should have been here by now. Where is he? “Check your cell phone. I think someone sent you a text earlier.” Silas took out his cell phone and glanced at the screen-it was not a message from Brian, but rather, Alex, asking him out for a drink. Silas ignored Alex’s text and gave Brian a call instead. It took a while for the call to connect and the first thing that Silas heard was the roar of Brian’s car engine in the background. “Where are you?” he asked. “I’m arriving soon,” Brian merely replied before he hung up. Camila noticed the frown on Silas’s face and asked, “What happened?” “It’s nothing. He said he’s arriving soon,” Silas replied.
They both decided to forget what happened earlier. At that moment, South emerged after hiding Silas’s pair of suits and greeted, “Uncle Silas, you’re awake.” “Yes, I am. Are you hungry?” Silas replied with a question.”
Feeling relieved that Silas did not suspect anything, South replied, “No, I’m good.” Silas responded, “In that case, let’s wait for a bit. Your Uncle Brian is arriving soon.” South answered, “Okay.” As they chatted with each other, Silas’s cell phone rang again. He picked it and noticed that it was Alex, who called since he did not receive any reply to his text. He slid his finger across the screen and answered the call. “What are you doing?” Alex whined. “You did not even reply to me.” “I’m at my girlfriend’s place.” Silas took a seat on his couch and leaned against the backrest with his legs crossed. Alex scoffed over the phone, teasing, “Oh, come on. Why don’t you join me for a drink?” Silas frowned and replied lazily, “Didn’t you hear me? I’m at my girlfriend’s place!” Alex poked fun. “Look at you now. Whatever happened to bros before hoes?”
