The Law of Attraction

[Note: This scene is a part of Chapter 523]

Sarah drove to her home straight from the resto-bar and asked one of the guards to help her bring Kyle inside her bedroom. She was too worried to let Kyle sleep alone in his apartment for some reason.

She walked the guard out and thanked him. She heaved a long sigh as she walked back into her bedroom. She wondered if she did the right thing by bringing Kyle to her apartment.

She went inside the bedroom and stared at Kyle's profile.

She shook her head and whispered, "He's so wasted…"

She removed Kyle's shoes and socks then fixed his position properly on the bed. She was removing the upper buttons of his polo shirt to help him breathe more comfortably when she felt him pull her body and hold her tightly as if he was holding a pillow.

"Hey, let go!" she complained and struggled to get out from his embrace but the more she moved, the tighter Kyle hugged her.

She paused and tried to relax her body but froze when she felt Kyle snuggle his face on her neck.

Sarah exhaled loudly. She could smell Kyle's scent combined with the alcohol. He was reeking of alcohol but it somehow did not bother her. As she felt tired her eyes became heavy.

Sarah yawned several times, forgetting to get herself out from Kyle's hug. She silently dozed off.

After a few hours, Sarah moved and slowly opened her eyes. They widened in shock when she saw Kyle's sleeping face before her. It was only an inch away from her face. They were so close that one wrong move and their lips would definitely touch.

Sarah moved her head back while her eyes still stared at Kyle.

'He looks like a baby, sleeping peacefully like this,' she mused while she subconsciously smiled. She noticed Kyle's crumpled forehead and she could not help but move her index finger in between them to relax it.

She smiled as Kyle's face relaxed. Kyle had raven hair and he kept his bangs so he looked like a sheepdog… a handsome sheepdog. Maybe that was why he looked younger than his age and care-free. She silently giggled and was tempted to touch those soft bangs but realized that she had to get up and prepare breakfast for them.

Kyle was a nice guy and he had already helped her twice when she was drunk without trying to take advantage of her. This time she wanted to repay him with the same kindness.

Sarah gently and carefully got up from bed, on seeing that the sun would soon rise. She immediately took a quick shower and changed into her sweatpants and t-shirt before going directly to the kitchen.

She was almost done preparing the table when she heard Kyle clear his throat and say, "I'm sorry I troubled you last night."

"Nah, it's okay. I did the same to you so we're even now. Sit down and make yourself at home. Breakfast is almost ready. I made something for your hangover since you drank a lot last night." Sarah commented.

"I guess you're in a really tight spot being Bill Grey's son," Sarah stated. She wanted to give Kyle some good advice hoping it would help the latter so she openly voiced out her thoughts.

Kyle smiled and thanked her for voicing out her opinions as it would definitely help him a lot in deciding how to proceed further. The two of them were engaged in a good conversation when Sarah's doorbell rang suddenly.

Sarah's eyes widened in shock as she cursed, "Sh*t! I forgot today's Saturday… My mom is early! Go hide!"

She wanted to hit her head on the ground for being so careless and for forgetting the day and her schedule for today! She pushed Kyle back inside the bedroom and told him to hide under the bed before she hurried to open her door.

"What took you so long to open the door? You should just give us the passcode so that we can enter without waiting for you. Tsk," her mother complained.

"Surprise!" her brother shouted enthusiastically as he followed her mother inside. Abram's eyebrows raised, seeing Sarah's suspicious reaction and her weird expressions. He was quite fast in reading his twin sister so his eyes quickly moved to scan the surrounding.

'There!' Kyle mused seeing a coat on Sarah's couch. "Look here, mom!! It's a man's coat!" Abram announced loudly and Sarah quickly grabbed it. He knew it. His sneaky twin was definitely hiding something or should he say, someone.

"What are you saying?! This is a unis.e.x coat and it's mine. Why are you here? Aren't you busy with your work at the company?!" Sarah hissed and threw him a glare.

Sarah started nagging him which made their mother interrupt them, "Oh stop it you two! Anyway, go and fix yourself Sarah. Get ready soon as we need to go to the golf tournament. Your father has gone there first and is waiting for us…" her mother reminded.

Sarah's face crumpled because she did not want to mingle with those socialites especially playing golf. It was just not for her.

"Can I please skip this? You know I hate playing that boring game…" Sarah whined.

"I knew you would skip it! That's why I'm here to pick you up. Hurry now. Your father wants to introduce you to someone…"

Sarah's eyes rounded as she screamed, "No way!!!"

"Yes, way!!!" Abram answered with a teasing grin and before Sarah could react, her mother directly walked inside her room and screamed…

Sarah and Abram both ran and saw Kyle, lying down on the floor, struggling to fit himself under the bed. Kyle never dreamt that he would be put in such a shameful situation where he was on the floor, trying his best to fit under Sarah's bed but couldn't.

He was about to get up but the opening of the door and screaming startled him so much that the energy he had gathered to get up and hide in a new place, immediately depleted.

'This is so embarrassing!' he thought as his eyes met Sarah letting her know that he could not fit himself under her bed through his eyes.

"Sarah! Who is this?!!" her mother yelled.

"Why are you asking the obvious mom? He's Sarah's man of course. Your soon-to-be son-in-law…" Abram teased his twin with a grin.

Both Sarah's and Kyle's jaw dropped, hearing Abram's words.

Sarah was the one who snapped back to her senses first and shouted, "No he's not!"

"Oh yes, he is!" Abram retorted. This time he was frowning as he continued, "Why else would a man sleep inside your bedroom if he's not your boyfriend Sarah?"

Kyle gulped! He felt confused and cornered in this situation. For some reason, he did not want Sarah to lose her face in front of her family so he interrupted, "I'm really sorry. I got drunk last night so Sarah just helped me out…"

"Oh dear, you should get up now. Let's introduce ourselves properly outside. Put on some clothes as well," Mrs. Jung commented with a bright smile, and Sarah could already predict what was happening in her mother's mind at that moment.
