Purple Romance

Chapter 310: Leslie sings for Lisa

''Whoa, I've heard from Lisa that this sort of thing happens but now that I am experiencing it first-hand, it is quite. SATISFYING. It proves that he is attracted to me. Paula, why are you suddenly being a pervert?'' she chuckled to herself before bringing the heater out to heat the water for the tea. She kept giggling all the while.

''Paula, what are you doing?'' Andy asked standing at a distance away from her. she turned at once, startled by his sudden appearance. Her face flushed and she looked at the kettle in her hands before clearing her throat.

''Erm, I was going to make the tea. You can sit at the hall and wait''

''Let me do it'' Andy took the kettle away from her. he filled it with water and fixed it against the connection before turning on the power.

''What kind of tea do you usually drink?'' Paula asked shyly.

''Whatever you have, I drink that. where do you put the tea?''

''Over here'' Paula pointed at the top cabinet and stretched her hand up to open it but he stopped her.

''Let me'' he smiled and held her hand, putting it down before he opened the cabinet and brought out the primrose teabag. ''You drink primrose tea?'' he asked curiously looking at her.

''En, this is Lisa's favourite tea. I didn't like it at first but it grew on me, I guess since I drink it now more than she does''

''Primrose tea is good for women. You should take it often''

''How did you know that?'' Paula asked curiously.

''What is this look that seems to say to suggest you are surprise I know about primrose tea, little Miss?''

''I just didn't think you were a tea person''

''I take care of my health very well. I started taking it ten years ago. my stepfather has a company that makes them. he sends them to me and Leslie every month''

Andy turned off the power and removed the kettle, ''care for some?'' he asked Paula and she nodded her head.

''En, my head is beginning to ache because I am worried. Today was supposed to be a good day. How did everything suddenly end this way?''

''Lisa will be fine. Leslie will make sure she receives the best care. She will recover soon''

''What about her voice. The doctor said she might not be able to talk for a long time. Lisa likes talking, how could she survive knowing her voice is locked up?''

Andy sighed and placed the kettle down before he pulled her into a hug, ''when I see you worried, I become helpless because I don't know how to console you. I am such a bad boyfriend, right? I can't even help my girlfriend feel better when she is in pain''

''No, don't say that. Having you here by my side is enough. With you next to me, I can handle any pain''

''Then, I will make sure I stay next to you forever. I want to have a lasting relationship with you, Paula''

''Me too''

''No, I don't feel like drinking tea anymore'' he said flirtatiously.

''Huh?''

''I feel like having you instead?''

Paula frowned and crossed her arms around her chest, making an x sign, ''we just started dating and you want the cookie already?''

''Cookie?'' Andy chuckled and shook his head, 'what am I going to do with you, Paula?'' he hugged her again saying, ''don't worry. Even though I am very interested in the 'cookie', it isn't the right time yet. Just know that I am not letting another man have that cookie because it will be mine to eat forever''

''Pervert'' Paula murmured.

Andy chuckled and poured the water into the cups of teabags. He took up and walked to the hall and Paula followed behind.

''What drama are you watching?''

''Please don't date that man', it's a new drama that I've been watching with Lisa. She is going to miss it tonight'' Paula sat beside Andy on the large couch as she spoke.

''Please don't date that man?', what kind of drama is that?''

''It's a Korean series''

''Oh, Korean drama has taken over the world''

'Don't you dare look down on Kdramas. They show a clear cut difference between the kind of boyfriends every girl wants and the type of boyfriends we end up getting?''

''Pray ye, enlighten me Miss on the criteria of the boys you see in Kdramas and the boys you end up having''

''Well, in Kdramas, we have the perfect boyfriends who always ensure that their girlfriends are happy and secure but then reality makes us understand that looking for a boyfriend that can make you happy and secure at the same time are two separate things. Like a playboy can make you happy because he knows just what to say but then he can't give you security. A man who can give you security is too busy trying to make money that he forgets about your happiness thinking that once he gives you all the money in the world you become happy. But, there is an exception, which is you'' she intentionally added the last part to lessen her chances of getting punished by him.

''You really do know how to take care of someone you just bruised, you naughty girl''

''Andy'' Paula mentioned his name and he looked at her.

''Yes?''

''I love you'' she said and kissed him.

''Paula'' he held her closely to himself.

''En''

''This is the first time you are openly letting me know that you love me''

''Really? But, I think I've been showing it?''

''I show it and I tell you that everyday''

''Alright, you win. I will tell you that everyday''

''No, let's do it this way'' he took out his phone and turned on the recorder.

''What are you going to do?''

''Record your voice. I want to play it to myself every day before I start my day. Come, say it ten time into the phone''

''So cheesy. I can say that to you every day if you want me to''

''No, I want to hear it before I sleep and when I wake up. I can hear it from you when I see you but this is what I want''

''Okay, since you've been a good boy, I will do that for you'' Paula took the phone from him and recorded her own voice according to the number of times he requested.

When she was done, she played it for him.

''Andy, I love you''

''Andy, I love you''

Andy pulled her into a tight hug saying, ''call it cheesy but you just made me the happiest man, Paula'' he brushed her hair backwards and was about to kiss her again when the drama started. Paula pushed his hands away and sat leaning against his chest.

''It's about to start. Let me tell you, this show is really good. The actors are also handsome and beautiful''

''But, they are not as handsome and beautiful as you and me'' Andy said and raised his brow and Paula chuckled.

''Right, we are a real couple and they are just acting, so we are more solid compared to them.

..

Leslie and Lisa yawned almost at the same time and looked at each other, both blushing before Leslie chuckled and Lisa smiled.

''You must be tired after my long chatting, right? I know what you are thinking. This man I didn't know he could be so chatty''

Lisa blinked once and Leslie gasped.

''You are really the Lisa that I know. You are so brutally honest. I leave you to rest since it's already late'' he stood up and covered her body properly with the quilt, ''I will be laying on the sofa over there. if you need anything, just ring the bell under your quilt and I will come to you right away'' he said and turned to go and she held his hand making him stop.

She blinked twice at him when he looked at her.

''Lisa, what is it?'' he looked at her hand and sighed, his heart arching when he saw the bruises on her wrist. It had turned pale purple. It made him want to crash the bones of the man who did that to her.

As if reading her mind, he sat back on the chair and pulled it closer to her side and smiled, ''alright, I won't leave your side. I am still here, right? You can go to bed, I will watch over you and keep you safe. With me here, you don't have to worry about anything. With me here, you can sleep with no worries. If you want, I can even sing you a song but I can't assure you that I have a good voice. My voice might probably give you a headache''

Lisa squeezed his hand and blinked her eyes.

''Oh, you don't mind? Whoa, you are the first person who isn't afraid to die listening to my voice. Just don't regret your decision later on. My favourite boy group is Westlife, so I am going to sing the song I sang during my hay days. Let me tell you. I wanted to become a singer when I was 10 years but unfortunately, I didn't have the voice. The judges at the contest I entered all told me to go and take over my family business, because of how terrible I sing''
