Chapter 1903 Irresistible Kaylee:>3
- I realized with some shame that as soon as I was alone in the bedroom, my mind still reeling and replaying some of that recent exchange of words, that my mild excitement had zero trouble growing into a full blown problem. Admonishing myself, I realized that at least my earlier anxiety helped to mask something of what I was really feeling. The problem being though, that I was really feeling something in the first place due to Kaylee.
- I tried to squelch my guilt and just put the entire thing out of my mind. Readying myself with some haste, I escaped the apartment and told Melissa that I was heading into work for the afternoon, hopefully to clear up most of the loose ends so I could relax away the majority of the week. Kaylee was in the guestroom, presumably getting dressed for the day, and so I avoided having to say anything to her.
- Regardless of my clean getaway, I found myself nearly obsessing over my breakfast that morning during my drive. I reran her comments in my head and tried to come up with witty comebacks instead of my pathetic stuttering. Then I recognized I was fretting over sounding stupid to some… teenager of all things. What did I care what she thought about me? It's not like I need to impress her for any reason. Well, that's what I tried to tell myself anyway. But the truth was, I felt like an idiot for coming off like an inexperienced doofus.
