'Is this kid stupid or something?' Xante wondered.
"I don't want to hang out!" she grumbled.
"I don't believe you! You obviously care about me. You wouldn't have given me the blanket otherwise."
Xante was speechless. She felt like she was talking to a wall. Thus, she ignored Sunny and went to Aaron's office instead.
Annie was nowhere to be seen when Xante arrived outside of Aaron's office, which she found to be very strange.
Before she went in, she said sternly to Sunny, "Wait outside! Don't follow me in!"
"Why can't I go in with you? Why are you looking for Aaron again?" he asked unhappily.
"If you haven't noticed, this is a company, and I'm working! Aaron is my business partner and colleague. You, a non-employee, have no right to be there for our business discussion."
Sunny scoffed haughtily. "Fine. I won't bother you working. I'll wait outside."
Xante rolled her eyes at him before knocking on the door and entering Aaron's office.
Sunny anxiously and obediently waited for her like a dog waiting for its owner to return. From time to time, he would put his ear against the door to hear what was going on inside.
"Sunny? Is that you?"
Hearing his name, Sunny turned and saw Annie with a cup of coffee in her hand.
"Hey, it is you, Sunny!" said Annie with surprise. "What are you doing here?"
Sunny was surprised to see Annie there too. "I should ask you the same thing. What are you doing here?"
Annie sat back down in her seat. "I work here."
Annie rolled her eyes. "We're not the same, okay? I'm a university graduate. Not to mention, I got the job through legitimate means. I applied with my resume and went for the interview."
Sunny scoffed. "You think you're so great just because you've graduated from a university."
"Yeah, real mature of you," said Annie sarcastically. "Anyway, you haven't told me why you're here. Also, would you care to explain why you have your ear pressed against Mister Aaron's office door?"
Sunny cleared his throat awkwardly. "Umm… I wasn't trying to eavesdrop or anything but…my… My girlfriend is inside, and I'm…worried about her."
"What?! You have a girlfriend?"
Sunny lifted his chin proudly. "Yeah. Why do you sound so surprised?"
Annie waved her hand and laughed. "I find that really hard to believe. I mean, what girl would be willing to date a kid like you? Hahahaha!"
Sunny's face darkened. "The only kid here is you!"

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
