Annie looked left and right to try and find Aaron, but he was nowhere to be seen. All she saw was her phone charging on the bedside table. She took it and saw that the topmost unread message was from Aaron.
[I slept in the living room last night. I carried you into the room and didn't do anything else. Don't make any assumptions!]
Annie's heart began beating faster. Her cheeks turned red, and she wondered to herself, 'What is he trying to do? Gosh, I'm getting all flustered by his message!'
When she scrolled down, she saw more than 99 unread messages that her boyfriend Marcus had sent to her. Annie was a little embarrassed. Her feelings were all over the place the day before that she forgot to reply to Marcus's messages!
When she clicked on Marcus's chat, she noticed he had sent a flurry of messages asking her location, what she was doing, and if she was asleep.
The most recent message had been sent in the morning. [Why are you ignoring me, Annie? Please reply if you see my messages!]
Annie replied apologetically. [Sorry, I was so busy thinking about my aunt and uncle that I forgot to check my message!]
Marcus replied within seconds. [It's fine! I was just worried about you. I'm glad you're alright, though! Where are you now?]
Annie answered truthfully, [I'm still with my aunt! I'm fine, don't worry!]
[Shall I pick you up at noon? Let's have lunch together, just the two of us!]
For some reason, Annie hesitated before replying, [Umm... Okay! You don't have to pick me up, though. I'll go to you!]
[I'll wait for you, then!]
After ending the conversation with Marcus, Annie got out of bed and went to the bathroom to wash up. When she walked out of Aaron's bedroom, she saw Corinne sitting alone at the dining room bar. She had her laptop open and was eating breakfast.

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...
