She's My Sleeping Pill

Chapter 562 - DIARY I



When they get back home, they had dinner together with everyone and this time, even Stefan's family came to visit. It's his maternal family, not the Dumrique. Ever since they found his maternal relatives, even though the cause of Latticia's death has been cleared, they still couldn't get to forgive Magnus for what has happened.

And she couldn't blame them. Their daughter suffered some much, blinded by love towards someone that she even accepted being a mistress when she was supposedly the legal wife.

Since they reunited with Stefan, there was never a time that they have attended an occasion where Magnus could be present. Their paths have never crossed and it seemed like, they weren't planning on doing so in the future. 'Perhaps when we have our wedding, both his family will attend it? But when will we have a wedding? We've never talked about it.' Cayenne thought about this in the middle of eating her food.

Luiz and Dominic, being the former classmates, they talked so much about their university life as well as their work. Occasionally, they'd talk about their teacher as well who was now working hard to get back on track with her life.

"You are distracted again." Stefan whispered beside her while placing another dish on her plate. "Is there anything that's bothering you?"

"Hmm? Nothing. Just some few things in school that I couldn't wrap my head around."

"Stop thinking about it when we're having dinner. Let's discuss it later."

"Okay." Cayenne just nodded her head even though that wasn't really the thing that she was thinking. She ate her food with Stefan tending to her beside her. "You don't have to pay close attention to me during dinner. Just eat your own food. Aren't you hungry?"

"I am." Stefan answered but there was this wide grin on his face that tells Cayenne he wasn't thinking of the same hunger as her. "I am so famished that I want to eat you." He whispered close to her ear and even nibbled on her earlobe when no one was watching.

Cayenne was so scared of being caught that she blushed beside him. "Stop that." She pinched his thigh which turned him on even more. She looked around and everyone was busy doing their own thing, not paying them any attention which relieved her a bit. "No cuddles for you tonight."

Stefan at up straight instantly and behaved himself until the dinner ends. After dinner, he talked with his family with Cayenne beside him. It wasn't really anything important, just trivial matters that he needed them to remind of specially their security.

"We'll come and visit you next time." Stefan told his grandmother who was sulking because they haven't visited them for a while now.

"Take care of Cayenne and don't stress her too much." Jose reminded his grandson as he stood from his seat. "It's getting late now. We'll go back home."

Stefan and Cayenne stood up as well and walked his family outside of their house. The cars and the guards were waiting for them already. "See you next time, grandma and grandpa."

"See you next time, granny. See you next time grandpa." Cayenne also bid her farewell to them. "Send my regards to Uncle Stand. Tell him that I wish him luck with his pursuit."

"He'd be happy to hear that." Dominic stated when he heard what Cayenne said. "Bye, sis-in-law. Bye bro."

"Bye Dom."

Parting would always be the saddest moment for Cayenne but she didn't stay sad for a long time because she knew that they would meet again in a week or in few days.

As soon as their guests left, the two of them came back inside the house. "Let's go and pack some of our things. You still have a class tomorrow morning but like in the past, we can go somewhere directly in the afternoon."

"Can we pack tomorrow instead? I just want to sleep now."

"Alright. Let's take a bath and rest the night away." This was the plan. They were supposed to rest the night away but when Cayenne finished bathing, she checked some of her personal stuff inside the drawer because she had been feeling that she kept missing something.

And that something was finally found when she saw the small envelope. "I knew it!" Cayenne exclaimed and picked it up.

"What?" Stefan questioned while drying his hair not far from her. She was still wearing her bathrobe because instead of putting on her clothes, she instantly rummaged inside her drawer.

Cayenne raised the envelope and looked from the front to the back. It wasn't very small for a letter but it wasn't too big either. Aside from her old address written at the back of the paper, there wasn't any information on the sender. "I always thought that I missed something and it turned out that I haven't read this thing yet."

"Huh? Didn't you receive that letter way, way back in March? It's October already."

"Well, I lost this when I moved here. Also, Luiz just received this not long ago."

"Luiz received that before you were abducted."

"I was busy alright." Cayenne retorted while taking a seat on the bed. "Also, I didn't really think this is important since there was no sender's information."

"It could be a love letter from a secret admirer."

For some reason, Cayenne shivered at the thought of what he said. She didn't like that idea at all. "Don't joke with me. I don't like that idea."

Stefan chuckled as he put down the hair dryer and turned it off. "Why don't you put on some clothes before reading what's inside? I might slip my hands inside your robe."

"Dress me up." she said, batting her eyelids flirtatiously towards him. "Please?"

Stefan was shaking his head as he walked towards her and picked up the clothes he prepared for her on the bed. He has done it before so, it wasn't really anything new to him. With a serious face, he helped her put on her undies while Cayenne ripped the envelope to open it. There were a bunch of letters inside not just one or two but more than a dozen of letters. 'No wonder it was bulky.' Cayenne thought.

As soon as he was done helping her with the underwear, Stefan removed her bathrobe and put on her night dress. He looked so serious while dressing her up but here and there, he'd graze her skin from time to time. Getting no reaction from her, Stefan pouted and stole a quick kiss on her lips.

"You're no fun to dress up." he complained which made Cayenne laugh at him. "You're feeling it, right?"

"Why should I tell you? Go to sleep."

"No, answer me first. That's just abnormal to have no reaction after all the things I did."

"You are the abnormal." Cayenne kicked his leg and turned around to get on the bed. The moment she turned around, Stefan pulled her and hugged her from behind. He felt her up and found out that her nipples were actually erect. "I told you. You are the abnormal here."

"So, you could get like this, too?"

Cayenne really wanted to smack her husband's face for being the most shameless person she has ever known. It's obvious that she'd get that kind of physical reaction but that didn't mean she'd like to do something with him at the moment. Her head was just too preoccupied with the bunch of letters she received.

"Wait until tomorrow." Cayenne told him and swatted his hands away.

"Alright. No complaints tomorrow, okay?" Stefan replied and stepped away from her to return the bathrobe on its rack. Since Cayenne was ready to get to bed, Stefan also got on the bed and sat beside her. "What all those letters? Why are there so many of them in one envelope?"

"Let's see." Cayenne leaned her back on the headboard, adjusted herself a little and leaned her head on his shoulder. As soon as she opened one letter and saw the words 'Dear En-en,' Cayenne's eyes scanned the whole paper to look for the sender's name. It was none other than the friend she had been missing for a long time. Marian, the only female she was so close with during high school, was the only person who calls her En-en. Seiji and Arthur call her Yen or Yenyen and to make the girl's relationship unique to her, she came up with an exclusive nickname that only she can use.

"Why did she send me these bunch of letters?" Cayenne questioned as she looked at the other letters. "Wait, they're in chronological order."

"Did she make you her diary?" Stefan asked while taking some of the letters from her hand. "I think you became her diary and something has happened to her."

"Hey! Don't jinx it."

"Why else would she send you a bunch of letters? It's obviously to tell you something."

She may not like the thought of it but that's one possibility. Cayenne decided to read one of the letters which was dated the latest and somehow, she felt happy with the content. She did become her best friend's diary. One after another, Cayenne read the letter while Stefan stayed up beside her, working on some documents to accompany her.

In the middle of her reading, tears started streaming down her face and she had no idea how to stop them.
