Chapter 64: The Call

"I do have a child but not in the way you think." after I heard these words, I froze for a split second before nodding.

This is Gerard Jarek and any woman would fall for his elegance and magnificence.

I couldn't say anything else and just sat still. When the silence got unbearable, I stood up and began to pack the plates.

Gerard was still on his phone while I parked the plates and headed straight for the kitchen.

As soon as I closed the door that separated the kitchen from the dining room, I sighed. What was this feeling? Why did I feel so attracted to this man?

Ayla, this isn't you. You can't be having feelings for Gerard at least, not yet. I hit my head repeatedly then moved to the sink to do the dishes.

I had barely started when he walked into the kitchen with a jug in his hand. Apparently, I had forgotten to take it away when I was clearing the dishes.

He walked up to me and took my hands from the water confusing me. 'Now, what is he up to?'

He turned open the tap and rinsed my hand and also took a napkin then cleaned the water off.

"What... What are you doing?" I asked unsure what his intentions were.

He said nothing and just carried me to the kitchen counter. "What... what are you doing? What is this about?"

Still, he said nothing and just walked up to the sink and began to do the dishes which wasn't what I was expecting.

I got down from the counter and walked up to him. "What... You... This is not a chore you can handle. Let me do it."

He paused for a second and turned to me. "What makes this a chore I won't be able to handle?" he looked at me quizzically and I stared at the latter on his hand before looking up at him and answering.

"Well, this is not your job." at Salem, men are not supposed to do any chores and in all sincerity, I didn't know why. It's not like it was written in the Constitution that house chores were the work of solely the woman.

"Well, I choose to do it. Besides, it's not that hard." he shrugged and continued. It just felt strange that he was doing the dishes and I was just staring so I decided to clean some areas of the kitchen while he washes the dishes. That way, I won't feel useless.

I wasn't done with cleaning when he approached me and asked, "What's more can I help you with it?"

"Nothing! The plates..." I looked at the sink and found that all the plates were washed neatly arranged.

What are you, a machine? I wondered as I stared in shock. He wanted his hands in front of me to wake me from my trance.

I blinked twice then looked up at him. "It... It's just that..." he took the dusting brush from my hands and began to pull me away.

"Where... where are we going?" I asked confused and he looked at me then at the clock.

"Tomorrow is a Saturday. That means you won't need to go to school so... It wouldn't be bad if we watched a late night movie." immediately he finished saying that, I leapt for joy. I have always loved movies especially the horror ones because of the adrenaline rush.

He let go of my hand then pushed me down on the couch to sit. "Sit here. I'll set up everything."

He went to the television set and arranged everything. "Which would you prefer? Asian, American, or... "

I wondered for a second then selected. "How about we watch something horror? I really don't mind the continent of the movie." it seemed as though he had never watched movies with anyone and that was why he was asking even the smallest detail as the continent.

I mean, who gives a damn about where the movie was made? All I care about is the quality and the content. Not the people.

"Oh, that's good. I haven't seen this movie 'the call' but I'm guessing it would be a horror movie. Do you mind?" he looked at me unsure as he scurried through his phone.

"Not at all. Horror movies are my thing." I shrugged and was glad we were on the same page.

He downloaded it immediately and connected it to the television.

The movie started and Gerard sat on the same chair as me but a few meters away.

"Oh wait." I stopped him and ran to the room to get a blanket and some snacks I saw in the kitchen a while ago.

I passed the snack to Gerard then sat again and covered my legs with the blanket. Afterwards, I collect my snack.

"Would you like to share a blanket?" I asked concerned that he might catch a cold.

I didn't react immediately but moved closer in the end and shared the blanket with me.

Because we were sharing a blanket, we were closer to each other now. He started the movie and I was engrossed from the first picture.

We watched the movie quietly for a few minutes until Gerard moved closer to me and placed my head on his chest.

I had to admit, this was quite uncomfortable until he placed my hand around his waist making me hug him.

This was paradise. A nice snack, the perfect movie and a comfortable pillow. What more could I possibly ask for?

Gerard hugged me back and we watched the movie halfway when I felt his grip tighten around my waist.

In the movie, the girl's father died and she had the chance to make a phone call to someone from the past. Through this call, they can both help each other with the girl from the past correcting the past of the female lead and the female lead saving the girl in the past from an awaited death.

We got to the point where the girl from the past went on a rampage and killed the female lead's father again and it was then that Gerard's grip on me tightened.

Why did the man's death affect him like that?
