Eric meant to go upstairs, but my mind went elsewhere and my face flushed slightly. Risking my neck, I
replied, ‘ I’m not hungry! I just don’t have the energy to climb!’
‘That’s all thanks to your pig ways. Let’s say you eat a lot every day but don’t exercise. You’re not afraid
of getting so fat that you can’t even do it
to walk?’
‘I’m fat? My figure is just cool!’
‘Just cool? You have no flesh and your breasts are so small they fit in the palm of your hand. He
smirked.
‘You bastard!’ I looked at him.
‘Shh! We are in a cathedral. You can’t just swear!
‘I’m not religious.’ I rolled my eyes at him.
‘Hurry up and get up. At your current pace, we won’t even make it to the top of the tower before dawn.
‘I want to rest a bit before continuing.’
‘Say, do you want me to carry you?’
‘Can you do it?’ I laughed at him. We only took less than 50 steps of the 300 steps up, so I didn’t
believe Eric would be so foolish as to carry me up more than 200 steps.
However, he caught me without a single word. Exclaiming in surprise, I hooked my arms around his
neck. Eric then continued up the stairs with me in his arms. After about 50 steps, I could hear him
panting rapidly, so I looked at him with smug satisfaction. ‘You are getting tired, aren’t you? Next time,
remember to think before you brag. Otherwise, you will end up embarrassed.’
“Did I say I’m getting tired?” He gave me a look and continued carrying me up the stairs.
After another 50 steps, I noticed that sweat dotted his forehead. Feeling a little sorry for him, I said, ‘Put This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
me down. I can walk alone.’
‘Why are you chattering? Did you think I was just saying that for fun? Today, I will carry you to the top of
the tower by hook or by crook!’
‘Eric Walker, this is no time to show off. Let me remind you that we still have this flight of stairs to
contend with on our later descent.
‘I know. I don’t need you to remind me of that. As he said that, he suddenly looked at me. ‘Lilian, I have
a proposal for you.’
‘What is it?’
‘Will you give me a reward?’
‘What reward?’
‘I’ll get energetic again if you kiss me.’
‘You do not have shame?’
‘We kiss and hug, so we’re already pretty close beyond that final act. Stop being such a hypocrite and
kiss me!’
‘In your dreams!’
‘All is well then. If you refuse to take the first step, I will. As soon as his words were out, he lowered his
head and kissed me.
