S2 81. On the Cloud Nine
“By the way, what do we have for breakfast?” Barbara asked awkwardly.
Philip’s heart tingled knowing that she was shy. After putting the glass on the table, he sat next to Barbara. “Are you hungry?”
Barbara swallowed hard. Philip’s tone was too teasing.
“Not really. It’s just that there are no servants here, and I’ve never cooked before. If we want to prepare breakfast, shouldn’t we start cooking earlier?”
“So, you want to cook for me?”
Barbara looked around, trying to suppress her nervousness. But apparently, she was getting more and more flustered. The silence seemed to remind her that there were only the two of them there.
“Y-yes, but you have to be patient. The results may not be tasty.”
Hearing Barbara stammer, Philip felt even more amused. “I don’t mind if your cooking isn’t delicious, but unfortunately… there’s nothing in the refrigerator.”
Barbara’s eyes widened. Her mouth gasped. “Then, should we just order food delivery?”
Suddenly, Philip shifted closer. Barbara’s back suddenly became straighter.
“To be honest,” Philip whispered, “I’m already hungry. I’m used to having breakfast early. If I could, I’d eat now.”
Barbara glanced briefly. Catching Philip’s gentle gaze, her cheeks turned red. “Then what should we do?”

Philip smiled faintly. Slowly, he moved closer to Barbara. “I don’t know what we should do either. Do you have a solution?”
Barbara swallowed hard. Her lips started to tremble. “I-I….”
“Should we take a shower now?”
Barbara’s eyes widened even more. “Take a shower?”
Philip nodded innocently. “To be fresher. Your brother and his wife always do that. They take a shower first before-”
“We’re not married, Philip. We’re not husband and wife.”
“Before breakfast,” Philip finished his sentence in a low tone. After a blink, he furrowed his brows. “I was planning to take you to eat at the 24-hour cafe across the street. As far as I know, the place is quiet and good for privacy. What are you thinking?”
Barbara was stunned. “Oh, I thought….”.
Her face was like a boiled crab. Unable to hold back the turmoil in her chest, she got up from the couch. “Well then, let’s meet in 30 minutes. I’ll get prepared.”
However, just as she was about to take a step, Philip grabbed her wrist. Her heart instantly skipped a beat.
