Ru had long fallen asleep in Alice's embrace due to the emotional roller coaster ge had since morning.However,Alicia seemed not to have realized that as she leaned against the couch with her head back and eyes closed and softly kept rubbing circles on his back.Looking at this scene,Ryu had a tender gaze and slowly stroked her hair and said softly, "He has fallen asleep..give him to me. I'll take him home and let him have a nap.You can also rest some and then we can meet in the evening.."

Alicia's arms tightened for a minute but then she slowly let go and said,"I hope you didn't mind me asking Ru for our marriage."

"No,I didn't mind.I don't think I could have put it any better.And Thank you for loving my son so much."

Alicia smiled a big smile and said "Not your son..our son now..He is mine too now!!You heard him!!Suddenly shy she asked,"let him sleep here and you can go and freshen up and we can gather for a late lunch..."

Only then did Ryu realize that he was still in his pyjamas..Feeling a bit abashed he agreed readily,"Ok then..atleast let me carry him upstairs and then I will leave.."

Carrying Ru upstairs,Ryu tucked him in her bed and was stopped by Ru's whimpering and longing "mother...." .He turned toward her and told her to lie down as well.."you rest too and no need to worry I will have it prepared.Alicia who was also sleep deprived got into bed beside Ru and closed her eyes expecting Ryu to leave..

Ryu watched her get in and close her eyes but he was reluctant to leave.His curiosity got the better of him and he looked around the room of this woman hoping to get a better understanding of this puzzling woman..The room would confuse anyone even more.Looking at the three walls of the room one could say that here lived a woman with elegant and tastes tending towards minimalism amd contemporary..but the forth wall...looked like a teen's parents nightmare...it had some pink posters and some boy band posters everywhere...and a big music playing speakers adorned the walls..He turned around to stare at this perplexing woman...

Feeling a stare on her Alicia who had almost fallen asleep jerked awake and found Ryu staring at her.She wondered if she had somehow offended him by not offering to see him out...

He tilted his eyes towards the nightmare wall and mouthed "what is this??"

Seeing him look at her favorite wall with a hint of disdain,she narrowed her eyes at him and glared at him.

Looking from the teenage type wall to her behaving like an angry teenager,he smirked.This woman was surprising him everytime!And everytime he saw a new facet of her,his only rhought was to kiss her..so he listened to his thoughts and did just that!He went to the bed and lay down next to her on the narrow bed..Seeing her try to move back and stick to Ru,he smirked inwardly and just looked at her.

"What are you doing?",she asked warily.

"I think I just pulled a muscle while carrying Ru so I'm going to lay for a minute to straighten my back.."

She moved her head back as much as she could and glared at his suspiciously..He was too close to her..she could feel the heat coming from his body...and she needed to escape soon.....her wary thoughts were interrupted by someone's wandering hands on her waist.."Hey you...mmmmmm".Her angry whisper shout was silenced as he leaned over her with his one hand on her waist and the other elbow supporting his weight.Their tongues tangled and his now familiar mouth again left her brain a mush...He moved back and slowly moved his lips towards her ears and whispered, "Miss me..I'll be back soon."

Acheiving his goal,Ryu got up and sauntered out of the door..without a care in the world......

This man!!!He is a rascal...Just what was his problem..he always left after giving her a brain frying kiss and then giving orders...He war really something!!!Let him come....hmpf...see if i dont make him pay.!!!!
