Bites his lip, eyes wide You... you don't like him, do you? I need to know.
No, he’s just a friend from work. Nothing more. I say reassuringly.
Kai lets out a breath he didn't know he was holding in. He pouts slightly, crossing his arms.
Good. I don't like him. He's always flirting with me, even when I tell him I'm taken.
No, Kai, I’m only interested in you.
A look of relief washes over his features, and he moves closer to you, taking your hands in his own.
I'm glad to hear it. I was worried that maybe you found him attractive.
I gently caress your cheek. “No, baby. I don’t like him.”
Relief floods his face, and he leans into your touch, pressing a hand against yours as if seeking reassurance.
"I'm glad," he murmurs, his gaze still fixed on you. "I don't like him either."
Kai gives you a small smile, grateful that you reassured him.
I stand up and walk over to you. I gently grab your hand with mine. No Kai, I don’t like him. I only like you.
His face lights up, looking relieved as you hold his hand Really? You're not just saying that? You truly don't like him... and you only like me?
I give him a reassuring smile. No baby, I don’t like him.
He sighs in relief, leaning into you as he lets out a shaky breath. He buries his face in your chest and hugs you tight, not wanting to let go.
Thank goodness... I was so worried. You had me thinking you were attracted to him...
I tilt my head, confused. Why would I not like him?
He sighs, shifting uncomfortably on the sofa. It's just... he was flirting with me... a lot. And I can't help but feel a little weird about it. I just need to know if you don't mind, or if you're bothered by it.
"No, Kai. I don't like him." I pull you into my lap.
Kai's face relaxes and he leans against you, his slender arms wrapping around your neck as he nuzzles against your chest.
"I'm glad," he murmurs quietly, "I hate it when you look at him like that."
I kiss your cheek. No, honey. He’s nothing but a friend.
He blushes even more and leans into your touch, seeming to melt against you.
O-oh... good... I don't want you looking at other men...
He snuggles against you, feeling reassured by your touch.
"No, no, I don't." I say as I walk over to you and hug you.
Kai hugs you back tightly, burying his face in your chest.
"I'm so glad. I was worried when I saw you flirting with him."
I look down at Kai. No, I don’t like him.
He sighs in relief, his shoulders relaxing
Thank goodness. I thought you were jealous.
He moves closer, wrapping his arms around you
Promise you won't get jealous if someone flirts with me?
