Jess was going over the events today in disbelief. Me, Jessica Tan, managed to get a job in the most prestigious tech firm and work directly under the assistant of the cold C.E.O, I even met him!!!! She shivered just thinking back about his cold gaze. She made a mental note to avoid him as much as possible. Thank god, she didn't have to report to him anymore but is she really fortunate? In an instant, Jason's face came to mind and her heart started racing. Pat.. pat.. pat.. silly heart, you must stay away from such clown. He maybe a player with face and body like that. She started blushing thinking of his body. Oh no.. Mind.. stop it! Don't think, don't remember, she commanded her brain but her mind still replayed the event she tried hard to suppress. It was during lunch, Jason made a stupid joke and she could not help but laugh and since young she has always been unbridled especially during laughter, she accidentally knock a glass of cold water and it spilled onto his shirt. He hissed out loud, when the cold water hit his body.

She quickly got up to help wipe his shirt, using the napkin, she dabbed and dabbed his impressively hard and muscular abdomen. It came to her as a shocked because externally he doesn't seem like someone brawny. "I got nice abs, right?" she can still feel his breath on her ear because of their close proximity that time. Her ears turned bright pink that time and oh my goodness, even now they are pink!!! He had an extra shirt in his car and not surprising it was exactly like the one she made wet. After that, she just docilely follow him around and try to blend in the background while he walked around like a king showing off to his subject while smirking throughout. She wished she could wipe the smirk off his handsome face and maybe taste his sexy lips. She was stupefy by her perverted thoughts. Argh.. enough.. enough... I should sleep! After tossing and turning, she managed to sleep a restless night.

Back at the funeral home.

"Were you dreaming of me?" His handsome face was waiting earnestly for her answer and his eyes held some uncertainties and she could sense some anxiousness as well. "Is that important to you?" He was taken aback by her answer. His well proportioned and striking face turned bewildered and perplexed. He gave some thoughts about it and took his time to answer. The ticking of the clock could be heard. After some careful deliberation, he answered, "Hm, the thought of you dreaming of me earlier, did make me happy. Is it important to me? Most probably because why would I feel happy if it is not important, right? You asked me earlier about my motive, I asked myself a few times, I honestly don't know but I became an instinctive person ever since the incident 20 years ago, my instinct is telling me that you can be the cure to my deepest wound because I've been in the cold for far too long and with you, I get to glimpse some light and warmth."

Now, it was Jade who was astonished by his revelation. She felt warm all over, she went closer to him and gave him a hug. In a daze, he hugged her back and they stayed that way for quite sometime.

Jade put some distance between them and looked up into his eyes, " I dreamt of me running in a field of flowers and then you picked me up swung me around. We were laughing happily and suddenly you hugged me and I buried my face in your chest. It was a beautiful dream. I like it very much." Her words was like music to his ears and the constriction around his heart loosened further. Their hugged again and this time he embraced her tighter. He looked at his watch and was dismayed that it was already 2 am. He felt reluctant to leave but he had to go.

Suddenly he said, "Give me your phone." He then typed in his number and then gave his phone a ring. "You didn't save my number." he pouted. She didn't expect him to act childishly. She giggled at his expression. "Okay Jade, I really got to go. I will text you and see you again alright, but that is if you are okay with it." She nodded in agreement. He held her hands in his and gave her hand a light kiss. The warmth from his lips lingered on her hand, as she watched him walked further and further away..
