Mark Of The Destiny

Suyin's mind was blank!

Nope! Wrong!

Suyin's mind was occupied by Wang Shi's breath which she always wanted to feel. Many times she had dreamed of kissing him, imagining his taste but hadn't imagined how warm and soft they would feel pressed up against hers.

…. Oh my! It's intoxicating! Sparks flew everywhere!

Not only he smells Godly but had a faint whiff of coffee on his lips. He must have had it before coming here!

The sound of her heart was so loud that she couldn't concentrate. She never knew a small kiss could be this electrifying.

"Ahem…." He cleared his throat, gesturing the two EXTRAS with his finger. Before they could sprint he warned them with their eyes to keep their lips zipped and they nodded like pecking chicken.

The two dashed away, smiling….

Suyin realized her awkward position where she was against his warm c.h.e.s.t, chiseled to perfection. Must he be so perfect? Handsome was such a lame word in front of him!

To prevent herself from getting distracted she avoided eye contact as she placed her hand on his c.h.e.s.t, intending to get up but her damn bellies slipped. "Ouchhh…."

Don't blame her! She tried!

Her breathing quickened, so did his…

"Wait! Let me do it," She heard his deep voice and nodded, her limp body trembled nervously.

Is there a way she could bore hole and hide in it?

He gently shifted her to the side and got up before offering her a hand, which she took as he pulled her up. All this while she kept her eyes lowered; she knew if she dares to look up he might see the fireworks in them….

Though the kiss was accidental, mechanical… it was a KISS.

And it sent shiver run down her spine!

"You okay?"

"…"

Seriously? How can you even ask this question?

She nodded, trying to scoot away, but he settled his hands at her waist, bracing her against him. The sensation of his touch tickled through her.

She pursed her lips, her cheeks turned tomato red, 'Please let me go… this is torture,'

Her eyes itched, begging its master to look up once, but the anxious Suyin only graced them with the sight of the white marble floor.

She didn't even know whether to say something or just book a flight back to country T. Secretly she calculated the distance to the elevator if she could run at the speed of 27. 8 miles per hour, 50 meters could be covered in less than 6 seconds.

No! She can't!

Wang Shi's hand at her waist foiled her plans of slipping away and board a plane back to country T.

Seeing her in a daze and not replying, he cleared his throat, "Ahem… Miss. Zhao?"

"Huh?" She lifted her eyes, but before they could go past his chin she averted them. No! She can't! Just kill her!

"Are you hurt?"

"Yes…." She mumbled. 'My heart! Do the open heart surgery on me please,' the last part of the sentence echoed inside her brain.

"You said something?"

She heard his magnetic voice and shook her head to drain the dirty thoughts out.

"K-Key…." Her nose twitched, lips danced, eyes turned smaller as a sneeze brewed. "ATICHOOO… ACHOOO…. ACHOOOO…." She covered her nose and imagined herself as a cartoon that makes comical faces when a sneeze comes. "Excuse me," sniffing.

"You are drenched. Don't tell me you ran up to here in rain to get keys? Rest assured, your car is safe with me. I won't eat it up," He muttered, wrapping her lab-coat around her to give needed warmth. "Can't believe you can be this careless!"

"I-I'm sorry….."

"You should be. Health comes…"

"....for whatever happened just now," She cut him to the chase, her voice came meek. It was she who fell on him, after all.

"Let's go. You should change first," holding her shoulder, he moved towards the elevator.

"…"

How can she be this fl.u.s.tered, but the man before her was behaving as if nothing happened? Does he not care what happened a moment ago? Or was it his tactic to behave normally in order to not make her feel uncomfortable?

She pouted her lips….

"I have some pending work to finish…. ACHOOOO…." The voice echoed.

"MISS. ZHAO SUYIN… Though I don't have any right to force you, can you please pay attention to your condition? If you continue like this, soon you'll end up as one of the patients in this hospital. I'm sure you don't want that to happen, right?" he put his hand at her back and steered her to the elevator.

The elevator ride was awkwardly silent. Getting the opportunity, she looked up at his handsome face…. Indifferent and calm! While her flushed cheeks looked like a clown's.

No, wait! Why are his ears so red? Is he shy? She craned her neck out, studying his face with mouth wide agape and eyes as round as two ping pong balls.

Sensing a gaze, Wang Shi suddenly turned, shocking her as she fl.u.s.tered and pretended to look at control panels. "32… 34… 36… 48. Oh wow! There are 48 buttons!"

Wang Shi "…"

Suyin "…"

Great!

Once again the silent returned bringing along the awkwardness….

She breathed when the elevator stopped, "Come," he took her to his principal office at the top floor. The bob cut woman at reception stood up to greet.

Wang Shi gave her a curt nod, "Bring a pair of scrubs, size S,"

"Yes, sir," Before leaving she gave Suyin a strange look. Why does she look at her like this? Even last time, Suyin felt weird by her gaze.

Suyin followed Wang Shi to his magnanimous office. "I know where the bathroom is. Got to bathe, bye." She rushed towards the bathroom like a mouse running after stealing food.

Technically, she did steal something!

His kiss!

*BANG*

'Oh, Suyin! What did you do just now!? You kissed him… YOU KISSED HIM…. You kissed…. HOTTIE BUM… IDIOT, STUPID, SILLY… You should have done it properly. How could you let go of this once in a lifetime opportunity?'

She looked up at the ceiling, 'Seriously? You answered my prayer, thank you!…. but should have given me the heads-up first. I could have done it better. I'm a better kisser, let me prove it. Give me a rewind. Take 2….'

She slides down, and hugged her knees, 'Mourning over her terrible kiss,'

Somewhere above the sky..... God face-palmed!
