His breathing became heavier, and his body felt like it was on fire. The hot breath from his nose sprayed onto my forehead and cheeks, causing my body to go weak and numb, and my heart to tighten with anziery. His voice was deep, as if it resonated from his throat, hoarse and barely audible:“Katrina, if only you had taken the initiative with me once, I would have…”
The conversation was interrupted halfway, and I faintly heard a sound, looking up at him uncertainly. His eyes were dim, hazy, and profound, like a black hole in the abyss, with a hint of light shining on my face. His gaze shifted from my eyes downwards, taking in my smooth and creamy complexion, my elegant nose, and finally settling on my soft and rosy lips. His Adam’s apple moved up and down; his gaze became intense, slowly pressing down, inch by inch, getting closer.
I watched as his face gradually grew larger, his breath spewing around my lips like fire. My heart raced like a wild rabbit, pounding in my chest, feeling as though it would jump into my throat. The smell of alcohol in the man’s breath made me sober up, causing me to turn my head and dodge for a moment.
Kaleb’s nose touched my cheek for a moment, and he paused. The large hand gripping my arm exerted a subtle force, causing my arm to ache. I sensed his anger, and even the atmosphere became oppressive.
“Hiding again?” his voice was hoarse and cold.
Huh? I was stunned for several seconds. Just the second day after our blind date, Kaleb wanted to kiss me. Because I was too unfamiliar and shy, I did indeed avoid it. But this time, he managed to avoid it because he was drunk, unsure whether the person he wanted to kiss was Leyla or someone who looked like Leyla.
I let out a soft sigh, and my nervous voice sounded weak, “Kaleb, I am Katrina, were you drunk?”
“Are you Katrina?” Kaleb murmured, his voice magnetic and heavy with a bitter, wistful smile, repeating my name, “Katrina, Katrina.”
