Simon's Bride
52. Tease

Anna frowned looking at the several servants passing by. Ever since he woke up and came out of Leonard's room, he had met some people who seemed to be working at Simon's house. Anna wondered where those people were last night? Did everyone come home after night? But they were all here early in the morning.

"Thank you for taking your time to look after Leonard, Ann. Even until this morning, he only wants to eat when you feed him" Simon said.

Anna looked over, then nodded her head. "That's nothing. You have helped me a lot too. Besides ... Even though I'm here to look after Leon, your worries aren't gone, are they? You might not sleep all night? Your eyes, no. Not just your eyes, your whole face looks very tired."

A smile fell on Simon's lips. He did not respond to Anna's words, after all he did not want to tell her what he really thought so he could not sleep well.

Breakfast was over, Simon met Bruno who was preparing in front of the house with his car.

Looking at Simon's face, Bruno smiled widely.

"It looks like you're spending your time really well" Bruno said, chuckling.

"Hmmm ...." Simon stood by the car, then stretched his hands up while yawning wide.

"You look tired and sleepy. I'm sure you're sleep-deprived, sir," Bruno said.

Simon looked towards the house. Anna was not seen yet, the woman went to Leon's room first to say goodbye.

"Where may I spend time sleeping, Bruno .. while a beautiful teacher's mother stays at my house ...." Simon blinked one eye.

"Great night, sir?" bruno asked in a joking tone.

"Of course."

"Ah ... no doubt, you are a real man. All women are quickly tempted, even if at first they are not interested," Bruno said. He opened the door and let his master in.

Simon shook his head. "No, Bruno. I'll just sit in the back with Anna. I'm gonna close my eyes for a second."

Bruno nodded, then they waited for Anna to be seen coming.

Bruno opened the back door, Anna came in and thanked him.

Anna did not say anything, though she was a little surprised to find Simon coming into the back seat next to her.

"We're leaving, Bruno. To Anna's cottage first. Ann needs to get changed and get a little dressed up before school. Mother teacher can't look messy in front of her class instead ...

"Yes, Mr. .." replied Bruno. He could not hide the amused tone in his voice. He related his master's words to their previous conversation. Her master indirectly tells her that it was the night Anna spent in her house that made the woman's appearance fall apart.

Anna frowned hearing the amused tone in Bruno's voice. She looked down and looked at the dress she had to wear again yesterday, but Anna felt that her appearance was not too messy. Anna turned her head to the side, but Simon was already leaning leisurely with both eyes tightly shut.

Anna finally chose silence throughout the journey. He glanced at Simon several times, but the man did not move.

Looks like he really fell asleep ....

When Bruno had stopped the car in his front yard, Anna immediately opened the car door. He turned to Simon to apologize for making Simon wait for him to change his clothes.

"Simon? I'll hurry, sorry to make you wait ...."

Only silence answered Anna's words. Simon's face turned in the opposite direction, seemingly unresponsive to Anna's words.

"It seems like Mr. is asleep, Miss ...," whispered Bruno.

Anna nodded her head, then signaled to Bruno that he would not be around for long.

Until Anna finished changing into her clothes and got back into the car, Simon was still asleep.

Even along the way, the man did not move.

"What happens until you can't sleep? Leon and I slept well together until morning, but you had a horrible night .. how sorry," whispered Anna half-murmuring.

Bruno heard Anna's words quite clearly. An amused smile rose on his lips spontaneously. His eyes glanced at the figure of his master from the middle rearview mirror. Bruno's smile widened when he saw Simon's body leaning, then collapsed towards Anna, the man's head leaning against Anna's shoulder.

Bruno looked back to the front. Try not to look at the glass anymore. Hiding its gel taste as best as possible by turning attention to the streets.

Arriving at the school gate, Anna turned her head slightly towards Simon's head that was leaning on her shoulder. He did not want to wake the man, but he had to go down.

Anna held onto Simon's cheeks and propped the man's head with her palm.

"I'm sorry .. but, I have to get down" whispered Anna as she put Simon's head back on the back of the chair. He gently stroked the man's cheek while smiling.

You must be tired ....

Anna was relieved that Simon had not woken up when he shifted the man's head from her shoulder.

The door next to Anna opened. Bruno opened the door for the woman.

Anna immediately came down and thanked Bruno.

"Thank you, Bruno. Simon is still sleeping. I didn't wake her."

"Yes, Miss."

Anna then passed after glancing once more at Simon's figure in the car. Bruno went back in and sat behind the steering wheel when he felt his master's figure move, he looked back.

Bruno was surprised to see that both of his master's eyes were already open, the man crossed his arms as he gazed towards the school gate.

"You woke up, sir? Is it because of me?"

"No. I didn't sleep at all ...."

Bruno raised his eyebrows hearing that answer.

"Come to the port. Jhon was waiting for me" said Simon, exhaling a deep breath.

"Good, Sir."

Simon was still staring out of the glass after Bruno returned to driving. He held her cheek with one hand.

The cheek that Anna had taken. Simon doesn't know if the woman did it consciously or not, but Simon can feel that whatever touch Anna gives, it's the touch of a friend.

If Anna has any affection for him, Simon believes it's just a friend's affection.

"I think I need to ask you out often. Just go alone with you, then show me how I feel ..."

"You're gonna scare him ... Anna just thinks you're a friend."

"Now I feel like it's not enough. I'm greedy .. I want more!"

"Do it slowly, Simon .. or you'll regret it."

Simon dialogues with himself, until his brain then imagines the events as he kisses Anna while on board.

Tempt him once more .. oh that's wrong! not once! But do it many times!
