Chapter 120: Chocolate chip cookies

"No training today?" Adler's voice surprised Scarlet and she gasped and clutched her heart.

"Did I scare you?" He asked her.

She rearranged the things on the kitchen counter slowly and arranged the freshly baked cookies on a tray. "Yes." She replied. "You almost gave me a heart attack."

"That's because you have been lost in thoughts for five long minutes. I have been standing here for a while but you did not even notice. What is running through your mind little sister?"

Scarlet blushed, the smooth white skin of her face turned red and it warmed up slightly. She was thinking about what had possessed her to bake chocolate chip cookies today. She could hardly concentrate all morning because the memories of the previous night were running through her mind continuously. Even something as regular as the brush of the wind against her skin had her thinking about the brushing of Esong's hands along her skin.
