Love Began with the First Meeting

They emerged from the lot, and headed toward Sophia Hotel. When they passed the gate of Grand Night Casino, a car parked along the road nearby caught Brian's attention. His dark eyes cast a sidelong look at the man on the driver's seat. It was Edgar, looking quite serious. Brian's gaze stabbed at him from the darkness.

It was dead silent in the car during their drive. Becky was strong and calm as could be told from her face, at least she tried to be. She was fidgeting, though, lacing and unlacing her hands, playing with her fingers, pulling on the folds of her outfit. Brian knew it from the start. He glanced her during the journey a few times. Finally, they arrived, and he walked her to her room.

"Get some rest. I'll return and have breakfast tomorrow with you, okay?" he said in a doting yet annoyed tone.

Becky gave him a brave smile and replied softly,"Sounds good. You should get some rest too when you finish up."

Brian leaned forward, ran his fingers through her hair, and planted a soft, tender kiss on her forehead. "I'll stop by if I get done early."

He wasn't asking permission. He didn't need it.

"You don't need to. I can wait till breakfast." Becky lowered her eyes. She forgot that her eyes were unable to show her feelings anymore.

Brian looked at her, temples moving a bit. He simply nodded and then left the hotel.
