She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 304 - SECRETS

"Are you sure that this is where he stayed?" Kirin asked the private investigator over the phone.

"Yes, ma\'am. I\'ve seen your son come out and come in of this apartment room. I didn\'t see anyone else use that room aside from him."

"Alright. I\'ll just wait here. Thanks for confirming."

She ended the call and continued to observe the apartment building from her van. She had been staying in her van in the past few days, only leaving the place for bathroom break. Aside from that, she did everything inside the van; like eating and sleeping.

On the other hand, Cayenne and Stefan didn\'t lower their guard at all and Arthur kept observing them from the neighboring property owned by the old man. He was waiting for the opportunity wherein Cayenne chose to stay in her house while Stefan go somewhere. Sadly, Cayenne and Stefan would always go somewhere together or they won\'t go out at all.

For example, right at this point, Cayenne and Stefan decided to stay at home and do their work at home instead of the office. So, Arthur was also watching them through his telescope, gritting his white teeth every time he sees Cayenne kissing her husband or Stefan kissing his wife.

His heart will be shrouded with jealousy and her grip on the telescope has tightened. Still, he couldn\'t do anything but watch them with envious gaze.

"Wifey, do you want to go somewhere this weekend?" Stefan asked her while reading the documents in his hand. Cayenne\'s head was lying on his lap while she was playing with her mobile phone. His other hand was combing her hair slowly, massaging her head sometimes in the process.

Cayenne paused her game and looked at him with serious face. She wanted to go somewhere with her brothers but she wanted to go with Jonas as well. However, she can only pick one of them.

"I want to visit mom\'s grave. Last time, we visited your mom. Can we go and visit my mom this weekend? I\'d like to bring Jonas along."

"Sure. Aside from that, is there anywhere else you\'d like to go?"

"Hn, let\'s visit Jillyann and her family if they\'re around. I\'ll go and ask them." She was just about to stand up when Stefan snaked his arm around her waist to stop her from leaving his side. "How about you? Is there anywhere you\'d like to visit?"

"Hn. I\'d like to have a road trip with you. We can visit some famous beaches, beautiful gardens, old and amazing churches. I just want to relax with you." In truth, he was looking for suitable places where he can give her the best wedding. He wanted to get her opinion on this matter without being too obvious. If he wanted to give her a grandiose wedding, it should be held in the place that she likes.

Cayenne nodded her head without suspecting him. "Sure. Let\'s go and do that. Let\'s do it on Sunday."

"Okay."

Stefan already asked Travis and Jillyanna for some places that Cayenne might like and those where the venues that they\'d be checking out on Sunday.

Seiji had been waiting for the news of their wedding but Stefan and Cayenne seemed to have no plans with regards to this event. He knew that they\'re already married but they were united in haste. He wanted to see how much Stefan loves Cayenne through the wedding preparation.

\'Wait! Hold it.\' He told himself mentally. \'Having a grandiose wedding doesn\'t guarantee a lifetime of happiness. Some of the couples would still divorce no matter how much they spent for their wedding.\'

He was waiting for the day to come when he could give the shares to Cayenne and make her the business partner of her husband. He wasn\'t doing this because he gave up his love already but, he\'s doing this because he wanted Cayenne to be on equal footing with Stefan. In that way, no one will bully her in the future. And even if life gets harder, she\'ll have a way to survive this cruel world.

Since he couldn\'t have her, he can only choose to support her now or else, he\'d completely lose her if he forced himself to her. He\'s not like Arthur, unreasonable and stupid. Seiji was calm and collected and knew when to step forward and step back.

\'Knock! Knock! Knock!\'

Seiji\'s secretary came and handed him some documents. "Are these the news related to Arthur?"

"Yes, sir." The secretary took a step back and gave Seiji time to read the documents.

"Do you have anyway to get inside his apartment?"

"Yes, sir. I can certainly do that but we need to be more careful because his mother has been guarding the apartment building to see her son."

"Then, make some distraction for her and get into his apartment. I want you to see everything inside and report it to the authority if needed."

"Yes, sir. I\'m on it." The secretary left while Seiji continued to read the documents in front of him. He wouldn\'t believe that Arthur would harm Cayenne unless there\'s evidence. He would rather believe that Arthur was setting a trap for Stefan not for Cayenne.

Cayenne and Stefan had no idea that some forces were helping them with their safety. They were prepared and that was good but sometimes, no matter how prepared you are, accidents still happen.

Their days continued to pass by normally and Arthur\'s days continued to pass by in anger and displeasure. He almost coughed up blood in anger when he saw one time that Stefan and Cayenne were flirting each other in their living room. It wasn\'t just their normal flirting where they teased each other but they were kissing passionately under his gaze.

Another weekend came and; Cayenne and Stefan drove out of their house to visit Jonas and go to the cemetery where Emerald was buried.

This time, Luiz and Kyle didn\'t come home from the university because they\'ll be visiting Kath\'s home.

Erwin was left behind to guard the house again and take care of the plants. Even so, during his break, he will open his computer and play the online game which he was addicted to.

He logged in to his account and found that Little Red was already online. The game character was a boy but the name came from Little Red Riding Hood. But since it\'s a very long name, he decided to just call this character Little Red. They\'ve been playing this game together for almost two months and he learned some things about this character. However, he still couldn\'t tell if behind this impressive character was a boy or a girl.

"Hi. You\'ve been inactive for quite sometimes now." Erwin sent the other party a message and he received a reply almost instantly.

"I left the country to visit some old friends. I didn\'t get the chance to log in until today. How have you been?"

"I\'m doing well."

Their conversation halted for several minutes, not knowing what they should say. Before, they never ran out of topics but this time, it felt rather different.

Erwin placed his fingers on his keyboard and told her something. "Do you want to play the game together? I still have two hours of free time before doing my next chores."

"Sure."

Sabrina moved her character and the two of them formed a party to slay some in-game monsters and demons. While playing the game, she kept glancing on the Little Red Riding Hood stuff toy on her desk. She remembered her encounter with Erwin on the souvenir shop and she couldn\'t help but smile. Sadly, she didn\'t know his name and she wasn\'t sure if they\'ll meet again in the future.

And for some reason, there\'s this inexplicable feeling deep within her that the person she\'s playing with in the game was the same person she saw at the amusement park.

Wanting to confirm her wild guesses, Sabrina didn\'t pick up her loots from slaying demons and instead, she sent a message to her playmate.

"I\'m not sure if I have asked you this question but, where are you living?"

"I\'m stayed in City D for a long time but I\'m currently in City B now." Erwin replied without doubting his playmate; thinking it was just an innocent question.

"Really? I\'m actually in City A. I arrived last week but I\'m going back to Italy next week."

"Italy?" Erwin asked in bewilderment. He didn\'t know that she came from Italy.

"Yup. I was born and raised here in City A but we moved to Italy when I was in middle school. My parents are still there so, I\'ll have to go home."

Erwin nodded his head as if she could see her. Sabrina was waiting for his reply but after some time, he stopped chatting. "Did he guess my identity?" Sabrina questioned with worry.

"Do you want to meet up?" This reply from Erwin made her smile but at the same time, she needed to refuse. It\'s not the right time for them to know each other yet.
