Chapter 11: Can I bring him the food?


    "Just as I suspected," Joday said as she walked towards me. My hands grew sweaty as I anxiously


    waited for her to speak.


    Kiro had left a visible mark on my neck, and I hadn''t even realized it. I was in deep trouble!


    "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! What''s on your mind, Joday?" Doday asked, echoing my own concerns.


    I swallowed hard, feeling the weight of impending doom.


    "You just came from Sir Kiro''s room, didn''t you?" Joday stated, sealing my fate. I must have looked


    like a deer caught in headlights. What should I do? I needed toe up with an excuse!


    I was about to say something, but Joday continued speaking.


    "There are so many mosquitoes in Sir Kiro''s room, right?" she asked, and I let out a sigh of relief. I


    had thought it was something else, something incriminating. Phew! Doday facepalmed in


    disappointment at Joday''s assumption.


    "It''s quite shady in the area where Sir Kiro''s room is... So I thought our boss must have been


    attacked by mosquitoes there... And you, Lyka! You always bring food there, but you never bothered


    to clean it and get rid of the mosquitoes?!" Joday eximed, making a far-fetched conclusion.


    What the actual heck? She really thought that was the reason? Well, lucky me, then.


    Doday burst intoughter at Joday''s foolishness. "Why are youughing at me, Doday?" I shook my


    head and quickly made my way to the bathroom to clean up.


    As I stood in the bathroom, I couldn''t help but ponder what had transpired between Kiro and me.


    What had happened in his room? Did I actually consider giving in? Argh!


    I shook my head, trying to clear my thoughts. You were just drunk a little while ago and got carried


    away by your emotions, Lyka! That''s all it was. Nothing more, nothing less.


    With a sigh, I resumed cleaning myself up, determined to put the incident behind me.


    –


    After the incident with Sir Kiro when we got drunk, I always felt a rush of awkwardness whenever I


    had to go into his room to deliver his food. It just felt too ufortable, especially considering that


    he''s my boss''s son and our first encounter was less than ideal. It''s definitely a big no-no.


    "Oh my gosh! This movie is so funny! Haha!" Doday eximed to Joday as they watched a movie


    on the t-screen TV in the living room. Since there were no other tasks or work for the day, Joday,


    Doday, and Miss Linda decided to have a movie marathon in the living room. Madam gave her


    approval so we could have some entertainment here at the mansion.


    "Doday, you''re even funnier than the movie! Stop with your ''oh my gosh'' all the time! Hahaha!"


    Joday burst intoughter. I think they''re watching a really good movie because even Miss Linda,


    sitting on a single sofa, isughing. It must be a genuinely funnyedy.


    I smiled as I observed them, continuing to wipe the disyed furniture in the living room of the


    mansion.


    "Precious Lyka!" Miss Linda called out my name, so I looked over at her.


    "Come here and join us! The furniture is already spotless! Watch the movie with us!" the old woman


    urged, but I hesitated. I heard that the movie was full of idiomatic expressions and sarcasm, and I


    was afraid and embarrassed that I wouldn''t understand it. I let out a sigh.


    Reluctantly, I sat on the couch next to Miss. I also grabbed some popcorn that Joday and Doday


    had prepared.


    "Hahaha!"


    "Oh my gosh! That was so funny! Hahaha, it had a double meaning!"


    "Hahaha, he made a figurative joke!"


    As theyughed, Iughed along, pretending to get the jokes in the movie, even though I didn''t


    really understand them.


    "Hahaha! All his words have a double meaning! It''s ridiculous! Hahaha!" Joday turned to me and


    laughed, so I just went along with it, even though I didn''t actually understand what was so funny.


    We all stopped watching andughing when Sir Kiro suddenly appeared. He stood at the top of the


    stairs, observing us. Yes, Madam had allowed him to leave his room, but he was still forbidden to


    come downstairs.


    We were all taken aback by his sudden appearance, especially since he was only wearing a shirt


    and pajama bottoms. He looked like a model in those clothes. I swallowed hard.


    It was the first time Joday and Doday had seen Sir Kiro''s appearance, and I could see the surprise


    and awe on their faces. They gasped as they looked at him,pletely captivated. Text content ? N?velDrama.Org.


    "J-Joday, is that my Kiro baby? Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh!" Doday whispered excitedly


    to Joday, unable to contain her enthusiasm. I mentally facepalmed at her choice of words, but it was


    amon reaction when girls saw a handsome guy.


    "What are you calling him ‘baby''? Stop daydreaming, Doday! Well, it seems like Kiro has finally


    decided to venture out of his room... He''sing downstairs now, huh?" Joday whispered back,


    sharing in Doday''s excitement. I couldn''t help but listen in on their conversation.


    Sir Kiro leaned against the railing, his gaze sweeping over the living room. "Miss Linda? Please


    bring my food up here," he requested in a calm yetmanding tone before disappearing back into


    his room.


    My heart skipped a beat. What time was it? I hadn''t realized that we had lost track of time while


    engrossed in the movie. It was already well past lunchtime. Miss Linda quickly gathered Sir Kiro''s


    food, carefully arranging it on a tray before handing it to me.


    "Um... Miss, why me? He specifically asked for you earlier, ‘Miss Linda, please bring my food up


    here...''" I stammered, trying to imitate Sir Kiro''s voice. My hesitation was evident. The memories of


    that night lingered, casting a shadow of awkwardness whenever I was around him. It wasn''t


    something I could easily forget. It was a foolish mistake on my part.


    "Don''t want to deliver his food, Lyka? Then... let me do it! Can I, Miss Linda?" Joday interjected


    eagerly, her eyes pleading with Miss Linda for the opportunity.


    "Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! Oh my gosh! No, no, it''s a no-no for me, Joday! I think it''s best if I go


    and deliver the food," Doday chimed in, swiftly intervening. It seemed that they had developed a


    sudden interest in delivering Sir Kiro''s meals, perhaps hoping for a chance to flirt with him.


    But…. unlucky for them, I wasn''t about to let that happen. Delivering him the food was my job.
