171 Get Used To The New Place

Kalea stretched her body after enjoying a satisfying sleep. It had been three days since she stayed at the man named Kai’s house. Everything seemed to be going smoothly, Kalea did not know whether Arthur had known about her departure or not, but until now, Kalea’s life had not been disturbed in the slightest by her ex sugar daddy.

Well, let’s just say it was an ex. Kalea did not want anything to do with that jerk anymore. Although in her heart, there was a little feeling and hope that Arthur would look for her and tell her that he realized he loved her too.

Kalea quickly shook her head, dismissing the thought. She had already decided to leave Arthur’s life, if it was like that she should not expect Arthur anymore.

The brunette girl walked out of the room, after making the bed and opening the window. The morning air in the village was really more refreshing than in the city. She came down the stairs and was immediately presented with the sight of Kai who was busy preparing breakfast.

“Good morning, Kai,” Kalea greeted him as she approached him.

Kai immediately turned around with a wide, handsome smile adorning his face, then returned Kalea’s greeting, “Morning, Lea! Did you sleep well last night?”

“Yes. Do you need help?” asked Kalea as she looked at what the man was making. For the past three days, Kai had not allowed her to help cook even though Kalea did not mind at all.

“Oh, no need. It’ll be done soon,” Kai refused for the umpteenth time.

“I can cook, Kai. If you doubt me,” Kalea said a little sadly though still with a flat expression.

.....

“That’s not what I meant. You must still be tired from the long journey, after all I only made a simple breakfast for the three of us,” Kai replied explaining.

“But I’ve been hitchhiking here, it would be selfish of me not to do anything.”

Kai laughed softly, the smile still not fading from his face. It was soothing to the heart. “I didn’t expect anything, Lea. You’re a guest anyway, I’m the one who feels bad.”

“I said don’t feel bad for me.”

“I said that from the beginning, too.”

Kalea pursed her lips, quite annoyed by the equally stubborn Kai. She sighed briefly, finally gave in to that man. “Alright, but tonight please let me help you. Or if you’re tired from work, I can make you dinner,” she said as she walked over to the dining table and sat down in the chair.

Kai blinked, slowly his cheeks blushed red although it was faintly visible. “Yo-you’ll see later.” The man immediately resumed his cooking activities after making Kalea a little confused by Kai’s clumsy attitude.

Just as Kai said, breakfast was ready. Before that, Kai brought breakfast to his sister who was always in the room. Meanwhile, Kalea kept waiting for the man to return to the dining table.

“Are you waiting for me again?” asked Kai after returning, he sat in front of Kalea.

“It’s rude to eat first,” Kalea replied.

Kai was stunned, for some reason there had been several times Kalea had impressed him no matter what the girl said and did. “Then, let’s eat.”

They were busy with their breakfast. Kalea admitted, Kai’s cooking was very good, probably because Kai only lived with his sister and he was the mainstay of the Egner family.

“Can I ask you a question?”

Kai looked up at Kalea and smiled slightly. “Sure.”

“Did ... you two only lived together for a long time?” Actually, Kalea had been very curious since the beginning, but had not dared to say it.

Kai shook his head and ate his bisquick. Meanwhile, Kalea continued to wait for a more complete answer from the man. “Both of our parents passed away due to illness. Mom has always been sickly, her body is weaker than the others. Our father left us three years ago because he was overworked. And it turns out that my mother’s weak immune system was passed down to my sister,” Kai explained, a casual look on his face as if he had accepted the reality of everything that had happened. “After my father left, Ilene’s body condition weakened even more because she was forced to work with me. Until now she couldn’t leave her room because of her health.”

Kalea instantly felt guilty for asking about that. It would have been better to be ignorant than to open Kai’s old wounds. “I’m sorry for asking and I am so sorry to hear that disaster you are experienced ....”

Kai blinked, shortly he laughed crisply making Kalea quite confused. Though she really apologized from the bottom of her heart. “It’s okay, Lea. You must have been curious from the beginning too, right?”

“I-I’m sorry.”

“I’m fine,” Kai said smiling very sweetly at Kalea, that gentle gaze slightly stunned Kalea. She could not deny that Kai was quite handsome, not to mention his kind and independent personality. “By the way, may I know how old you are? I’m 25 years old.”

“Oh, I’m 20,” Kalea replied, waking up from her long daydream of staring at the man with scarlet hair.

“Hee, you’re younger than I imagined.”

Kalea’s face fell flat again, slightly offended. “Does my face look older than my age?”

“I-it’s not like that! Maybe... mature looking? But I don’t mean any harm! Really, and you’re also very... pretty,” Kai replied clumsily, averting his gaze in other directions despite stealing a few glances at Kalea.

Kalea could not help but smile, even chuckling softly. “Thank you. Ah, I guess I should be more polite to you since you’re older than me.”

“No need to be like that, just behave naturally as if you don’t know my age,” Kai refused.

“Hmm, alright.”

“Are you going to city today?” asked Kalea as she sipped her tea.

Kai shook his head, he was done with his breakfast. “Today I’m going to the garden with Owen.”

“Can I come?” asked Kalea, making Kai a little surprised.

Yesterday, Kai brought Kalea to the village chief. To let him know that there was a woman living in Kai’s house, because after all Kai did not want any bad thoughts from other villagers. Kalea was received very well and friendly, after that Kai also took Kalea for a walk so that the girl was more familiar with the village that was her birthplace. However, Kai did not take Kalea to her workplace.

“Sure, but aren’t you tired? Didn’t you walk around the village yesterday?” asked Kai a little worried, because yesterday after arriving home Kalea’s face looked pale.

“I’m fine, I’m curious how you work,” Kalea said with a convincing face to be allowed to come. Who knows she can help, Kalea does not want to be a parasite who only sleeps and eats.

“You’re an energetic girl. Okay then, let’s go!”
