Be Your Own Spring novel Chapter 14

I peeked from under my eyelashes to see the handsome man taking another bite of my chilly gravy.

I bit my lip to control my smile when,"I know dear. I made all the dishes. Except for that filthy chilly gravy. Rozella made that." I looked up and saw Stephanie looking at him with her eyes lit up.

"Mind you. Iam talking about the chilly gravy" my eyes widened and I continued to eat while feeling this jittery feeling inside my stomach.

He liked my food! My favorite food!

As if he couldn't sit straight he said, "Where's the bathroom?"

Hoxy! Hot and sexy! And deep may I say, those were the adjectives my subconsciousness used for his voice. And I completely agreed.

Please don't pick me..please don't...please don't..please do-

Stephanie said "Yes honey sure, Rozella will show you" Welps! Luck is never on my side.

Wiping my mouth with a napkin I said, "Yes sure, this way, please"

I stood up and pulled my dress down. I hate this dress. So suffocating!

If only I had said no when Stephanie made me buy it. Sigh

I started walking and he followed.

Soon we were at the back of the house and we couldn't hear anybody talking from the dining table anymore.

This house only has one bathroom. It's weird, I literally have to wait for my turn to the bathroom. But it is closer to my bedroom so I have a little privilege.

Soon we reached the bathroom and I stopped and took a deep breath and turned around. He was looking around but then he turned towards me and it felt like time literally stopped.

Beautiful.

One word, 9 letters, 1 man and that word is perfect for him.

To say he was handsome was an understatement. He was gorgeous. His chocolate brown skin was glistening and had me awestruck.

He had blue electrifying eyes with specks of light green in them. They suddenly became my new favourite colour other than green. I love his eyes.

He had a sharp jawline one that could probably cut you deep, deep through. And he suddenly became my favorite knife.

He had a dark short beard. His hair was braided into corn rows. And they looked hoxy on him!

This man.... God surely took a lot of time while carving this specimen.

I found myself getting attracted to his piercings.

He had a nose piercing

An ear piercing.

I saw his arms, they were covered by the long dark turtleneck hoodie full sleeve, but his hands...they had prominent veins. Ah! My weakness.

What was even better was, that he had these cool rings on his hand. A snake ring, a dice and a thunder ring with one chained ring on his pinky.

I gasped loudly and looked over at him and saw his jaw and fists clenched. Oh shoot! Is he gonna punch me?

"No! Wait, they didn't mean that" I tried to explain "they meant like-"

He just pushed me and entered the bathroom and closed the door with a 'thud'.

How can they say something like that? What is wrong with people!?

As I continue being angry, I heard the witches leave and the bathroom door close and Kezr stepped out. He looked at me and started walking away.

Call me weird or whatever but I wanted to get to know him and how he is nature wise, I wanted to introduce myself to him.

"Wait!" I said a little too loud then I should have. He turned around and looked at me emotionlessly.

Woah what happened to gawking me?

"Uhmm" I cleared my throat and said "Hi! Iam Rozella Mogane, 21, 5'4, Capricorn, gold colour is my favorite, favourite movie is Knives out and-"

I realised Iam rambling and stopped but he just continued staring at me.

After what feels like forever he came towards me and calmly said "Stay the fuck away."

"Uum-I- what?"

He came towards me a little closer to my liking and I took a step back. He stopped about an inch away and stuffed his hands into his pant's pocket, straightened his face.
