"Hmmm, I call not only you abnormal but I know that something is wrong with you."
“Ooh really and please enlighten me, Mr. Smith, what exactly is wrong with me."
“You don’t have any feelings for the opposite gender. I mean any type of attraction, temptation or know things like that. “
“And what made you think so, Sherlock?
Steve chuckled at her endearment. Until now, he has been involved with many girls and dated them, but things were limited only to intimacy as the girls solely focused on talking about the latest jewelry, fashion, or gossip. This is the first time that some girl is accomplishing real talking with him without getting affected by his looks or his money status, and he likes that about Eva... He enjoys talking to her.
Before Steve could talk more, they heard an icy voice of Stephen from behind Eva. “What are you both doing this time in the garden?”
Listening to an icy voice, Eva again got petrified of the devil’s name, Stephen.
She slowly turned around and started walking inside the house, first in slow steps, then almost running. It shocked Steve and Stephen both to see her actions.
“What is wrong with her?”
“That’s the exact thing I was trying to tell her, but you disturbed our conversation. By the way, how are you home so early... No offense, but you rarely reach home at this time.”
“ I completed my next meetings, and I desire to sleep too."
“Yes, I can understand that, as last night was a long night for you; tell me how you feel, brother; as far as I remember, it was the first time for you to share your bed with a girl,” Steve asked, keeping one hand on Stephen’s shoulder.
Stephen glared at his hand that was resting on his shoulder, then he glared at his brother. Steve took the signal and quickly removed his hand from Stephen’s shoulder
“Steve, I have some advice for you."
"Hmm, yes, tell me.”
“Mind your own business, you asshole.” “
Steve gulped the lump that formed in his throat as Stephen rarely cursed someone, and it shows that he is not in a good mood to talk.
“I think I forgot my phone,” asserting that Steve made a run towards the car. While Stephen made his way inside the house.
Stephen sighed and started walking towards his room. While he was unlocking the door, he glanced towards her room, which was locked. He entered inside the room and entered the washroom to have a shower., after changing into a comfortable set of t-shirts and trousers.
Eva becomes breathless by walking at speed. She kicked her door first and then tried to control her heartbeat, which was beating in acceleration. She never expected Stephen to return so early, as Rose and also Kathey mentioned about Stephen’s routine and also how he used to reach late at night, hardly attaining to have dinner with family.
Eva once again became worried about herself. She felt relieved that she only had one meal, breakfast, in his presence in the morning. However, now he is at home before dinnertime, whichmeans she will have to face him throughout the entire dinner. She lost her appetite without even imagining this.
To her discomfort soon Kathey was standing at her door calling her for dinner; she didn’t have an option if she refused to have dinner because it would make Rose worried, and she doesn’t want to lie., especially to Rose. So she quietly followed Kathey to the dining room.
But the sight in front made her relieved, as it was Rose William and, of course, that jerk Steve only who were present at the diningShe checked the surroundings again and did a happy dance inside her as she couldn’t find the devil nearby; she got settled on her chair. This time, in the chair that was placed in front of Steve, Steve again gave a smile at her, which she royally ignored. Steve chuckled at her actions, as he was now enjoying her fierceness.
Rose smiled at the scene as she witnessed all the actions of both of them. Eva took a negligible amount of food on her plate. She was relishing her food when Steve commented
“You know you should eat more food, especially at night."
“Why?” Eva asked in irritation.
“As that will not make you famished till midnight and will save you from a midnight walk, I hope you remember my room.”
Eva just gave a glare at Steve, whereas Rose scolded Steve, and William chuckled then added, “Why do you keep teasing her like that? Trust me, if you keep doing this, then she will leave our place soon."
Steve pouted at this, whereas Rose and William shared a laugh. Eva also joined them
“Did I miss something? And who is leaving the house?"
