Chapter 10: The Sweetness of Firsts ( 10 )
As I sang a melodic tune, letting my voice drift through the air, I couldn't help but smirk, knowing it was bound to get her attention. "Hey, I'm serious about the kiss. Do you think I'm playing?" I thought back to my college days, remembering how my first girlfriend left me for some ikemen guy on the very first day. It stung then, but in this new world? I wasn't going to waste my chance.
"Oh Shania~ my beautiful Shania~~" I sang with feeling, mixing sincere desire with playful teasing to pull her into my orbit. I didn't care how bold I was being. I was in a new world, and I wanted what I desired.
She had to be close now, right? She couldn't just ignore me forever... could she?
Huh? Why is she coming here? With a key?
I paused mid-song, my curiosity piqued. "Oh Shania~~" I tried to continue, but my focus shifted to her.
She walked up to my cell door, her expression unreadable. Fumbling with the key, she swung the door open with a soft click.
"Hmm?" I tilted my head in confusion. "What's going on?"
"Just shut up..." she muttered, her tone firm yet low, almost... embarrassed?
And then it happened.
Shania leaned toward me, her movements deliberate but hesitant at first. Before I could process it, her lips pressed against mine.
It wasn't just a peck—it was passionate and real. Her lips were soft, warm, and slightly sweet, holding a secret she hadn't shared with anyone else.
