Tony glanced at her with a faint smile. “Now you remember about it.”
Myra had forgotten all about Meow after their conflict today. Thus, she squirmed with embarrassment. Meanwhile, he was already heading out the door. “Relax; Mrs. Frye has already let it out into the garden outside. You don’t need to worry about it.”
Upon hearing that, she finally felt relieved.
Tony soon returned with a bag in his hands. That bag seemed rather familiar for some reason, but Myra could not place where she had seen it before.
His figure was tall and broad. He had gone for a smoke when he went outside and returned with a cigarette casually held between his fingers. He was still wearing the white shirt and black pants that he wore during the day. Although he had his sleeves rolled up in a casual, at-home look, he still looked extremely handsome. She watched him walking over. Looking into his slightly narrowed eyes, she felt her heart rate increasing and hurriedly shifted her gaze away to look at the TV in front of her. “You should lower the volume in case we disturb the others upstairs.
He seemed amused, and he nodded with a straight face. “Okay.”
While putting in the DVD, he placed the cigarette between his thin lips and stood with his side profile to her. Within the curling smoke, she felt as if she couldn’t take her eyes off his handsome face. She didn’t even notice that she subconsciously gulped.
Soon, the man finished setting up the DVD and walked over to her. Although the sofa was very spacious, she still shifted to make space next to her. However, he immediately sat down next to her and pulled her into his arms. Breathing in the pleasant scent on his body, she suddenly felt a sense of security washing over her. What is there to fight about? Can’t we just be with each other peacefully?
Tony turned the volume of the TV down until it was very soft. When the DVD started playing, they saw a blond and blue-eyed couple arguing. Then, the female tried to leave in tears. After that, the man hurriedly chased after her and enveloped her in his embrace. Coaxing and cajoling, he brought her back home.
“Why are there no subtitles?” Myra murmured. Although the lack of subtitles was not a problem for either of them, she couldn’t help finding it strange.
Meanwhile, his hand wrapped around her waist and pulled her even closer into his arms.
“It’s probably a low-quality DVD.” His voice sounded a little hoarse beside her ears. His hand was very hot, making her waist shiver slightly under his touch. Even so, she did not make him move it away.
Soon after, the scene on the TV left her feeling flabbergasted. After the man coaxed the woman to go back home, they shared some sweet words with each other. At some point, they began kissing each other…
She thought to herself, Maybe all European and American horror movies are like this. Never mind; it will be over after this. Contrary to her expectations, there was no end in sight despite enduring the torture for several more minutes. She tightly gripped the white shirt of the man sitting next to her, bit her lip, and lifted her head to look at him. “Didn’t you say that it’s a horror movie?”
His eyes were dark with passion. In a soft but hoarse voice, he said, “The pictures printed on the covers were of horror movies.”
His hand slowly moved upward. Seeing her shy but lucid eyes, he suddenly stopped moving his hands. He kissed her tender lips and said to her in a low voice, “I’ll change to another one.”
