'What sort of answer is that? How is anyone supposed to know where you want to go?' Xante thought with a frown. She was about to chastise Sunny slightly when she felt a ticklish sensation on her thigh. When she looked down, she saw Sunny running his fingers lightly across her thigh underneath her skirt.
Xante smacked his hand away and hissed, "Don't be such a creep!"
Sunny chuckled before placing his hand back on her leg. At the same time, he asked the driver, "Could you please raise the privacy curtain? I'm going to have to discuss some…business with Miss Xante."
The driver was taken aback by the request and glanced at his boss to seek her approval.
Realizing that Sunny was up to some funny business, Xante nodded, signaling the driver to do as instructed. She did not want the driver to feel awkward because of Sunny's antics.
With the privacy curtain drawn, the back row became a private space for Xante and Sunny.
Sunny grew even more unruly and lifted Xante and placed her on his lap. He then moved his hands to caress her fair, slender legs.
"Your legs are so fair even without any stockings," Sunny remarked.
Xante was caught off-guard by his sudden hold, but she had gone through enough tricky situations to remain fully calm. She adjusted her slightly crooked spectacles and stared at him. "What are you trying to do?"
Sunny shifted his gaze from her thighs to her face, which was just inches away from his. "Nothing at all. I just want to hold you in my arms, Xante. You're still the same, you know. You didn't gain or lose any weight."
"Don't you have a girlfriend, Sunny?" Xante smirked. "Is this the kind of attitude you pride yourself in having?"
Sunny was unfazed by her comment. "I just broke up with her. I realized I'm more attracted to older women like you, Xante. I'll be your one and only from now on. Sounds good?"
At the Holdens, Corinne noticed an unread message on her phone when she finished her shower. She clicked on it and discovered she had received it half an hour ago from Xante. Xante wanted to visit her at the Holdens and wanted to know if she was free.
Corinne immediately gave Xante a call. When the call was connected, she asked, "I didn't catch your message because I was in the shower. Are you heading here now?"
However, there was no response from Xante. Instead, a hoarse yet familiar voice greeted her. "Corinne!"
Corinne processed the voice and immediately recognized it. "Sunny? When did you return?"
"I just arrived today," came the reply.
"I see..." said Corinne before suddenly realizing something. "Hold on. Why is Xante's phone with you?"
