Chapter 88 - 88: Breakfast

After a hot fiery night Daniella woke up feeling sore . She sat up, next to her was an empty space but the wrinkles on the pillow and bedsheet showed that someone had slept there.

Massaging her temples with her index finger Daniella got up with her weak legs only to realize that she was still n.a.k.e.d. A loud and exhausted groan let out from her lips while her hand grabbed the blanket swiftly and wrapped it around her body.

Just as she was about to leave the bedroom, she heard the door opening and Evan's voice was heard in the room.

"Put it on the table " he sounded authoritative as he spoke.

Daniella smirked silently, she walked out of the bedroom and found Evan fixing the round two-seater table with a piece of rose in the slim vase while the smell of the freshly brewed coffee filled the air.

Her hands which were holding the blanket tightly loosened it as soon as the hotel attendant left the room. Evan was so busy that he didn't notice her presence.

"Hey" she called out seductively while plastering a ravishing smile on her lips.

Slowly Evan looked at her and when their eyes met her tantalizing smile widened.

"Want to go back to bed?" she murmured moving closer to him while his eyes squinted watching her.

"Are you alright?"

Hearing the concern tainted with a little confusion in his voice Daniella was puzzled.

"What's wrong?" her voice had become normal she bent down to pick up the blanket and wrapped it over her body.

On the other side Evan stared at her hair, a few strands of it were turning into white just like before and it worried him.

Picking up a few strands of her hair, Evan moved his face closer to Daniella's face and found her irises turning into black.

"Are you in pain?" he asked, a look of fear swept past his face as he lifted her chin with his fingers to meet his eyes.

"I am alright " she replied casually but seeing the rest of her hair turning into white had made him even more worried.

"Your hair is becoming white."

Daniella slightly slapped his hand away from her hair and walked past him, she sat on the dining chair and picked up the coffee mug.

She turned her head to look at Evan, "I slept n.a.k.e.d and the room was cold so now I have a slight fever " she took a gulp of the hot coffee and as it flushed down her throat, she felt the heat engulfing her whole body. She lied; her body was feeling sore which caused her hair to react.

Evan stood behind her hands lay on her shoulder and massaged it with a feather-light force "do you need medicine?" he asked.

Daniella shook her head "drugs and any kind of medicine don't work on me " she said looking up at him "it's fine" she didn't want to worry him, so she pulled him close and sat him on the chair opposite to her.

"When did you wake up?" she asked, picking up the fork from the table.

"Two hours ago " Evan replied.

Then, the two had a normal conversation they both thought they would never have after finding out the truth.

Daniella knew she should be avoiding him, stay away from him until she found a way to avenge her mother, their situation was no different than Romeo and Juliet the feud between their family that caused her to be an orphan was atrocious and tragic but the voice in her head was constraining her to be with him, to love him was so much that it overcame her will and thirst for revenge.

She stared at his slender fingers holding the cutlery, it was so elegant and smooth that she could not help but be mesmerized by his movement.

When was the last time she stared at someone with as much love as she did right now?

Three years ago.

Yeah, it was three years ago when she had her first boyfriend James Park , the only boy who she spoke back at the orphanage.

Blinking her eyes to remove the thought of James from her mind Daniella picked up the coffee and drank it once again, the room was suddenly filled with Evan's voice as he told her stories about how he convinced the owner of the hotel to let him use the kitchen.

She had never thought that Evan cooked the breakfast on the table, there was a slight pain throbbing in her head that was not allowing her to savor the taste but nevertheless the look of the food and the effort that Evan exerted to prepare it made her heart feel warm.

As they finished their breakfast Evan got up and cleaned the table while Daniella went to the bathroom.

She closed the door behind her, ran towards the sink and turned on the faucet. As the water rushed down the sink Daniella looked up at the ceiling while a hot red liquid rushed out from her nose.

Daniella's body shivered in pain ; she knew that the noodles Evan prepared had some sesame in it and she ate it willingly.

The door was suddenly pushed open and when Evan saw the blood dripping from Daniella's nose a look of fear crept across his face.

He rushed to her with a worried expression but Daniella gave him an awkward smile.

"before you freak out, I want to tell you that the food was really good but maybe next time you could avoid sesame" she said laughing through the pain she was feeling.

Evan sighed, his hand pushed her lightly to bend over the sink and used his other hand to clean her nose with the water from the faucet.

"Is it painful?" from his tone Daniella could tell that he was concerned.

Daniella nodded "a little but it's happened before. This is nothing" she straightened her body and watched as Evan grabbed the face towel and dried her face himself.

"Is there something else I need to know about your allergies?" when her face was finally dried, Evan held her hand and one by one wiped her wet fingers.

"Well just like normal allergies too much consumption can cause death " after her hands were dried, Daniella caressed his cheeks , even such simple actions showed how much he adored her and she could not help but be moved and love him even more.
