Chapter 13 - Ch. 13 Her Heart Beat As Fast As Plane!
Since that incident, Kaylee has managed to avoid Mister Declan Black's summons. Without realizing it, she became closer to girls than boys because only the girls would help her find excuses for her to avoid the summon.
She did not know that the girls were unwilling to give her as Mr. Black's gay lover, and they felt comfortable with Kaylee rather than with boys.
Well, she was basically a girl, so she was much more comfortable spending time with girls than boys.
Kaylee remembered she had almost no friends in her school days because of her shyness and silence. She never speaks if no one talked to her.
Yet now, she could talk freely and strike up a conversation with just about anyone. Well, it was all thanks to her observation of Nick's behavior and disposition.
Even though she still was a shy girl and preferred to stand in the corner, she felt she could do almost anything, and no one would judge her. She could hide her face behind Nick's identity and do whatever she wanted.
Therefore, she took this golden opportunity to hang out with girls as much as she could. Go shopping, gossiping about a hot guy and etc. Nevertheless, she would never forget her second identity and act like Nick that sometimes would boost himself as the world's most handsome guy.
It was very narcist, she knows, so don't blame her as it wasn't like she wanted to boost her appeal around.
Unbeknownst to her, Kaylee's actions that seemed to distance herself from boys and even opened her hands to girls made her male friends felt envious of her. The girls even looked like having fun with 'Nick' rather than with them.
They became jealous and annoyed because they thought Kaylee was arrogant and didn't want to be friends with them anymore after becoming an idol among girls.
"Hi, Jack, would you like to have lunch with me in the cafeteria?" as usual, Kaylee invited her first male friend to eat together.
"Of course..."
"Ehem,"
"Sorry, Nick. I forgot Mrs. Smith called me for an additional lesson. See you in the next class."
Kaylee did not feel suspicious when someone interrupted Jacob's first response. She did not question why Jacob refused her invitation suddenly. Innocent Kaylee did not know that her male friends started to distance themselves from her and avoid her.
She didn't feel strange about the change in her friends, and she gave no care about it. After all, she was even more relieved that no one was hugging her shoulders unnoticed anymore. Neither did she need to hear outrageous, vulgar words that made her face could burn with shame.
However, when her professor instructed the students to form a group, Kaylee realized that no male friend had invited her to create a group together. In fact, Jacob, her first friend since she took the college entrance exam, didn't even talk to her.
There is definitely something wrong. Thought Kaylee while pondering what was wrong.
And now… their professor told all male students to bring something from the warehouse and move it to the main hall.
Kaylee complained to herself when her friends put the heaviest burden on the pile of boxes that Kaylee brought. She even had to carry two heavy boxes.
Two!?
What is this? Is she being bullied? Seriously? In this era?
Hhh… Kaylee had no other choice but to carry these two boxes with all her might. Her body was not very small, and she was quite tall with about 5.6 feet in height. No one would suspect that she was a girl disguised as a teenage boy.
Even so… Kaylee had never done any weight training before, and she hardly ever did any exercise.
The only sport she did was the treadmill whenever she had free time in between her tight schedule.
Kaylee felt overwhelmed lifting two boxes weighing about ten or maybe fifteen kilograms made her hands feel numb.
Kaylee tried to keep the boxes from falling. She felt her face burning and sweaty all over her, but she insisted on keeping those boxes.
The boxes she was carrying was very heavy, more than she could bear. Her legs began to wobble, and her hands began to feel numb. The moment she reached her limit, Kaylee's hand fell limply, releasing the boxes from her arms.
Kaylee gasped in a panic because the boxes she was carrying would fall, and its contents containing award trophies and souvenir mugs for the music competition at the weekend would crack.
Fortunately, there were two sturdy hands to replace her before the boxes completely slipped out of her hands.
"What are you doing?" someone's cold voice resounded above her head, giving her a goosebump.
Kaylee stared in surprise when she saw that the person who had helped her lift the two boxes from her hands was the person she had been avoiding.
Declan Black!
"Mrs. Agatha told us to move these things to the east hall," Kaylee replied while enduring the pain in her hands.
She was sure there was a red mark from the base of the box tip pressing the skin against her arm. Luckily she was wearing a long-sleeved shirt so no one would see her red mark skin.
Kaylee deliberately wore a thick shirt and long sleeves so that her body looked bigger like a boy in general.
Alas, she had absolutely no idea that she would meet that man in this unexpected place. What should she do now? What kind of answer should she give if the man asked her why she never came to his office?
"I didn't ask what Mrs. Agatha told you to do. I asked, what were you thinking to let go of your grip? You realize we won't have mugs or trophies for this weekend's competition if all these breaks." scolded Declan in a stern tone.
"I'm sorry." without realizing it, she turned into a Kaylee and forgot her role as 'Nick.'
Besides, Kaylee felt that what Declan said was true. If she dropped it and the mug and award trophy break, the two-day event would not run smoothly.
She felt utterly guilty and didn't dare look up, just like Kaylee would if she was overcome with guilt.
If Nick were the one who experienced this incident, that boy would apologize and immediately amend his mistake. Instead of standing still and lowering his head.
But, well... Nick could not possibly be unable to lift these two boxes considering that the child loved to exercise and trained his muscles. Nick kept his body in shape because he loved to attract attention.
'There is no girl who dislikes young men with abs.' that's what Nick told her.
Author: me too XD
So she was sure that boy would never make this mistake in the first place.
"Are you Nicholas Larson?"
Kaylee bit her lip before answering his question, "Yes, sir."
Only Kaylee heard the sound of her immeasurable pounding heart. Maybe her heartbeat was faster than a race car or a jet coaster in Wonderland. Perhaps even as fast as an airplane?
Author: Which normal person's heart could beat as fast as an airplane?
Usually, the female lead in a novel would have a pounding heart when she meets the main male character. Their hearts were pounding because they felt nervous facing their beloved lover.
But right now, our main character was not fluttering because she has met her lover.. But she felt terrified because she met the scariest man in history.
