You'll Fall For Me, Today or tomorrow

Matthew smiled adoringly at the sight and made his way over to the woman’s side. He leaned forward and met her eyes.

However, Clarissa swatted him away and continued to stare out into the space. One would be curious as to what was on her mind.

Matthew let out a chuckle.

He pinched her little ears and asked, “Penny for your thoughts?”

Clarissa did not answer the man, or at least she seemed disinterested to answer him.

Helpless, Matthew could only bent forward and carry the woman in his embrace and sat back down himself, placing her on his own lap. He pinched her chin and edged close to kiss her on the lips.

“Clare, are you unhappy? Are you feeling alright?”

Clarissa shook her head and blinked her eyes blankly. Her voice sounded weak.

“Just lazy.”

Matthew was rendered speechless before he smiled. “Are you feeling bored? What about we go on a trip tomorrow?”

“Tomorrow?”

They had agreed to have a getaway trip some time ago but somehow did not get around to it.

All this while, Clarissa had assumed that Matthew just did not have the time. They would be garnering unwanted attention if they had chosen to go on a getaway trip right then.

However, it would be impractical to wait until the case was solved.

“Yes, tomorrow.”

Seeing as the woman had been cooped up in the house for some time, Matthew thought it must have taken a toll on her.

However, he found her demeanor irresistibly adorable.

He lowered his head and planted a deep, long kiss on Clarissa’s lips.

After their lips parted, Clarissa asked again, “Are we really going tomorrow?”

“Yes, so where do you want to go? We can decide right now.”

Clarissa got down from his lap and checked her phone. After fumbling with it for quite some time, she gave Matthew an address.

“Erihal?”

“Sure, I’ve never been there.”

Matthew reached out his hand and touched the tip of the woman’s nose affectionately.

“Sure.”

Their passports were ready, and as for the other items needed, Matthew had a knack for getting everything ready done in a jiffy.

Clarissa and Damian were especially excited about the getaway. The little guy had been looking forward to a trip with his parents.

The two of them packed a lot of stuff into their suitcases as they ruminated over what else to add on. Matthew merely watched them in a corner with a serene smile on his face.
