"Nope. She's always been like this. She's usually very even-tempered, but once she gets going? Whoo baby, you wouldn't want to be near her when that happens. I mean, that's why I'm hiding in here with you too," said Aaron.
"Oh…alright." Annie could not help but worry about Corinne.
Aaron put his hands on Annie's shoulders, guided her to the bed, and pressed her down to sit.
"I have no hidden agenda for bringing you into my room. It's just that I only have one-third ownership of this apartment. The rest of the rooms are either Xante's or the boss' territory, so I can't bring you there without their permission. Otherwise, they'd beat me up," explained Aaron.
At first, Annie was scared to sit on his bed, but she felt a little better after his explanation, so she remained seated.
She had always known Aaron lived with Xante, but this was the first time she learned Corinne stayed in the same place as well.
Generally, a woman would need more space than a man since they needed to store their clothes, accessories, makeup, and many other things. A man could usually fit all the things he needed into one bedroom.
Being a woman herself, Annie found it understandable that Xante and Corinne would not want others to go into their rooms without permission.
Aaron helped Annie open her Coke bottle before passing it back to her. "Just chill. I'm not going to do anything to you."
Annie gradually relaxed. She was not really worried that Aaron would do anything to her; she just did not want to embarrass herself in front of him.
Not knowing what to say, she drank her drink.
Aaron sat some distance away from her and drank his beer. "Why did you follow us here if you didn't want to see me?"
Annie allowed the taste of her drink to roll in her mouth a little before answering, "I want Corinne to keep being my aunt. I came to persuade her to stay with Uncle Jeremy."

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...
