Chapter 108: Lovesick?

*Thud *thud *thud

Lana's heartbeat throbbed. She could hear everyone around cheering at them, "Kiss! Sweet!"

Liam's lips were still pressed on hers, and a warm sensation ran in her body. It was not a deep kiss, but a lingering peck that he repeated three times, and somehow she felt that there was something more to it than a peck on the lips.

She had always liked when they kissed, she never detested the idea of kissing him, neither did she feel shy. Then what happened today? Why was she feeling so shy and so different from what she usually felt? His soft lips felt like burning pieces of ice that made her feel hot, yet the cool feeling from them was still there, comforting her heart.

She forced a smile when Liam let her go. Her face turned deep red, especially her cheeks. She saw Miley giggle as she said, "Oh gosh… You two look so adorable and I'm going to send these photos to you both. Love is in the air. So cute."

Lana gulped, feeling shy with the tremendous teasing of Miley and senior Sy. She would deal with Liam later for initiating the kiss. For now, she would let it pass seeing how happy his family looked for them.

After an enjoyable lunch, they separated at the restaurant. Lana and Liam walked with them out of the restaurant.

"Lana… Stay strong, your mom will be fine soon and I'm hoping we can get together more in the future as one family with your mom. See you tomorrow." Senior Sy said and hugged Lana lovingly.

"Thank you father," Lana replied with a smile. Senior Sy entered the car, then Miley and Jorge followed, hugging Lana as well.

"See you tomorrow," Jorge said with a wink before closing the door of the car. Lana and Liam watched the car leave.

Lana finally faced Liam and said, "Liam, I think I'm taking too much of your time already. You can go ahead and do whatever it is you usually do on the weekends."

"But I don't have anything to do right now so.... JUST FOR NOW okay? You can treat me like your sidekick, JUST FOR NOW. Ask me anything you want, like an assistant. How about we go back now to the hospital? I'm sure your mom is waiting for us already. Besides, I think mom will be happy and more inspired if she sees me beside you during the surgery." Liam prodded.

Lana understood the point, so she agreed. However, for some reason, Liam's presence around her was distracting. She couldn't just pinpoint how distracting.... and why?

They were back in the hospital and were walking in the hallway towards her mother's ward when Lana felt Liam's hand holding hers.

She paused, pulling her brows together while she stared at their hands. Lana's left eyebrow lifted before she snapped, "What are you doing Liam?"

"Oh, this?" Liam muttered, raising her hand that he clasped with his.

"I thought it would definitely lift your mom's mood seeing us sweet together so that our marriage looks more real? Don't you like the idea? About the kiss I did later, I hope you don't mind? It's inevitable… for my family..." Liam innocently stated in his casual tone.

He knew he was taking advantage of the situation, but it was important that Lana get used to his presence and his casual touches and holding hands. Even he could not believe that he was pulling out a trick on his sleeve just to win a woman's heart.

'Oh, is this what they called lovesick?' he inwardly thought, not sure whether he would feel sorry for himself but his inner self kept on cheering for him instead like saying, 'you can do it! Just be patient…'

"Alright, I will let it slide today..." Lana nonchalantly commented. She noticed how her mother was observing her and Liam's interactions, so she couldn't agree less on Liam's suggestion.

Liam had a triumphant smile once more when they entered the ward hand in hand.

"We're back, mom!" Lana beamed.

Mrs. Huang smiled widely, seeing she was with Liam and with their hands clasped together.

"Such a romantic and lovely couple," she adoringly remarked.

Lana, without her knowing, blushed at that word.

"I know right mom," Liam responded, followed by a kiss on Lana's hand.

That unexpected tingling gesture took her off guard. Such a simple act of sweetness could make her heart pump drastically, like there was someone playing a drum roll inside of her.

'What the heck is going on with me?!' she complained, trying her best to calm down her crazy acting heart.

"Look at you dear with those burning cheeks," Lana's mother did not stop in her teasing that made Lana dared to pull out her hand from Liam but was not let off that easily by Liam.

"Mom, stop teasing Lana or she will turn into an ice queen," Liam joined in the teasing.

Lana gave her sharpest glare at Liam, who only shrugged his shoulders at her and pulled her on a couch facing their mother to sit.

He even had that mischievous grin on his face.

'Why do I have a feeling that he's enjoying this?' Lana mused with a twitched mouth but then quickly replaced it with a smile, seeing her mother looking closely at her.

"Liam, son… You have such impressive family members and a very inspiring father. No wonder you grew up so well." Mrs. Huang, taking the opportunity, commented.

"Thanks, mom… They could be handy but I'm really blessed to have them." Liam meekly responded.

Mrs. Huang wanted to ask about Liam's mother, but she thought it could be a sensitive topic that he might want to avoid noticing that none of his family members nor Liam mentioned her, though they had a good talk when they all came.

"Do you want to play something mom? So you can relax for a while as we wait for the surgery?" Liam suddenly suggested. Mrs. Huang nodded and said, "Sure, son. I am really bored right now. What are we going to play?"

"Oh, wait… I got an idea." Mrs. Huang suddenly chortled.

Lana was only silent, watching her mom talking to Liam. Her eyes would sneak glances on her hand that Liam was still holding firmly. 'It was warm,' she thought. She never thought that holding a hand like that could make your heart feel this warm and…

She paused for a while, trying to think of the proper description of what she was feeling.

'Safe… and secure…' Lana silently whispered.
