The next morning. 

Kyra has actually kept the alarm and woke up early. 

It didn't surprise her that she was on her bed. Her brother should have carried her here. 

And, the reason she has turned her alarm on is because she wanted to invite Oliver to morning cycling even before he could get ready and go somewhere else to do that. 

She has something to tell him...

"Let's see how you will react.", Kyra whispered to herself, chuckling. 

Straightening her messy hair, she sat down on the bed, still in her evening dress from the last day. 

Feeling excited, sge clicked on the call button of Oliver's profile. 

—-------

Meanwhile, Oliver was still asleep. 

He had to work overnight as he had some business work to attend to. His sister should have taken care of that work but she is busy overseas, looking into one collaboration. 

The peaceful silence in his bedroom got disrupted suddenly when his phone started to ring. 

"It better be important" Oliver grumpily muttered as he extended his hand to take the phone on his bedside table. 

Swiping up, he placed it in his left ear. 

"What??", he asked, angered. He was getting calls from his assistant all night that it angered him to the saturation point. 

Kyra was startled for a second. She never heard this tone of Oliver as he is very kind, gentle to her. 

"Uhmm…I think I called at the wrong time. I will see you in the hospital then.", Kyra hurriedly said. After hearing that harsh voice, she couldn't muster up her courage to ask him out. 

When Oliver heard the sweet, melodious voice of a certain someone, all his sleep vanished into thin air. His eyelids swiftly opened and his blue eyes widened in surprise. 

He hurriedly sat down and turned on the bedlight to look at the caller id in case he got mistaken. 

Kyra, calling him at this time?? It's almost impossible!! 

'It is really Kyra!!' Oliver thought to himself in surprise when he looked at the caller id. It is Kyra!!

However, before he could reply, Kyra had already ended the call. 

"Damn! I sounded really harsh. Did she misunderstand?" he chided himself as he made a call to Kyra. 

However, no one answered. It did make him nervous and restless. 

What if she really misunderstood and decided not to answer??

"You idiot!! Learn to check before answering," Oliver scolded himself as he jumped out of the bed to freshen up. 

Within ten minutes, he was dressed for cycling and was already on his way to the parking lot. 

—-------

"He must be exhausted. I shouldn't have called him this early. I disturbed his sleep.", Kyra thought as soon as she ended the call after excusing herself. 

She looked at the time and sighed. It's really early. 

She must be so excited that she didn't realize that she would be disturbing the sleep of one of the busiest people she knows. 

"As I woke up, I better exercise. I have already missed the morning exercise from the past three days.", Kyra told herself and reluctantly stood up. 

As she was still in the evening dress from the last day and could smell the traces of drunkenness, she decided to take a bath before going to do exercise. So, she hurriedly went to the bath and didn't notice that Oliver called her. 

It took her almost half an hour to finish her relaxed hot water bath and then another twenty minutes to dry her hair and get dressed up. She wanted to enjoy the sun, so she could only decide to go to the park. 

One of the other reasons is, she hopes to see Oliver there though she knows that he would be sleeping now. 

Taking the key of her low key black sedan, Kyra left the house. 

However, when she was about to fetch the car from her garage, she heard the sound of the car stopping at the entrance. So, she could only open the app in her mobile and look at the live footage of the CCTV's placed outside the house. 

And, when she saw who it was, her jaw would have dropped to the ground if it was really possible. 

It's Oliver. He just aligned the car and was leaning on it's side as he took his phone out to call Kyra. And, it is only when Kyra realized that she didn't look at her phone after returning from the bath. 

So, she could only turn on the screen and as expected, there are five missed calls from Oliver. 

"Ahh!! How could I be this reckless. He would have thought that I misunderstood him and didn't answer. Poor him, he has to get ready and hurry here.", Kyra thought as she continuously chided herself. 

Placing her phone back into her bag, Kyra opened the gates and rushed towards Oliver. 

When Oliver noticed her, he ended the call and looked at her with his gentle blue eyes. 

"Good morning.", he greeted. 

"Good morning." Kyra greeted him as she scanned his face. How much she remembered him the last day!! 

"Anything wrong with my face, Ky?" Oliver asked in his teasing tone. He could already tell what Kyra is thinking just by looking at her face. 

"Yes. You look tired." Kyra said. 

Oliver smiled. If it was before, Kyra used to blush with embarrassment for getting caught while staring at him. 

Now, she learned to answer without any hesitation. Though these are tiny improvements, they are significant for Oliver. 

"I just had a lot of work to do." Oliver said. 

"You should have rested! Why did you come all the way here!?" Kyra scolded him, her eyes brimmed with genuine concern. 

"It was because someone didn't answer my call. It worried me." Oliver said in a playful tone. 

Kyra pouted. 

"I didn't do it deliberately. I… I was taking a bath." she said, making a sad face. 

Oliver let out a small laugh. 

"I was just teasing you, Ky." he said, ruffling her hair. 

"So, are you up for cycling?" he asked as he rested his hand on the side of her head, brushing the curls that were lying on her forehead. 

"I am !!" Kyra said, rolling her eyes as she walked to the other side of the car

"Did you just roll your eyes at me, Ky?" Oliver asked, his voice playful as he walked to open the door for her.

"I did." Kyra said as she sat inside. 

Oliver leaned closer to her, his face in the same height as hers. "I don't mind.", he said, winking at her before closing the door for her and walking towards his side. 

After that, they drove to the park which is just five minutes from Kyra's place. 

—------

Meanwhile, Luther was awake when all this happened. 

He was sleeping in the next room of Kyra's so he woke up when he started hearing the noises from her room. Though the rooms are sound proof to some extent, he is a light sleeper and his hearing ability is really good. 

He was quietly sitting on his bed as he wondered why Kyra woke up this early. She was drunk and was exhausted, so he expected her to wake up just at the right time to get ready for work. 

And, when he heard her door opening, he waited for her to go downstairs and only after that he followed her. 

It is not that he wants to stalk her. He just wanted to know where she was going in order to make sure she would be safe. 

"Where would she be going at this time? Don't tell me she is doing something risky again.", he thought when he saw her walking towards the garage. He had seen her sneaking out and returning with a few injuries a handful of times. 

All his thoughts came to halt when he heard another car stopping at the gate. 

It started troubling him when he saw how Kyra started getting excited. He could see her excitement when she ran to the gate and opened it to him. 

"Who could it be?", Luther thought. He could only hope inside that it was not a man. Not Oliver especially. 

But his worst fears came true when he saw Oliver standing at his car side, looking dashing and handsome. 

And, what happened next is like a nightmare to him. Every second felt like a minute and every sweet gesture between Oliver and Kyra were like punches, hurting his heart. He could only stare from the corner till their car was out of his sight. 

"From their dresses, they look like they are going to some park to walk and cycle. But, why do they have to go together!! Can't they just do it separately!!", Luther thought, scoffing in jealousy. 

'They are acting like a couple who can't stay apart even for a day.' this thought indeed came but Luther could only stop himself from thinking in that way. 

If possible he would have followed them but he could only stop because he don't know where the car keys were kept in this vast house.. By the time he find them, Oliver and Kyra would be long gone and he doesn't know where they are going.
