Don’t Misunderstood! - Chapter 97

The only thing that the poor Calix did was to act in accordance with the script. Where do things possibly go wrong?

Calix racks his brains to think of an answer while chasing Klein before his eyes widen in surprise

Could it be… no, how is that possible? Calix tried to remove the ridiculous thoughts he has inside his mind but it’s like there were demons whispering straight next to his ears

No matter how unbelievable it was, there is only one thing that Calix can think of to explain Klein’s sudden change of attitude towards him

“W-were you angry that I didn’t kiss you?” Calix asked before gulping hard. His initial expectation was Klein getting angry at him and calling him delusional

However, that was now what happened. Instead of scolding Calix, Klein’s body merely stiffened

He turned into a stone statue that didn’t move for quite some time. Just this reaction alone already confirmed Calix’s hypothesis

If he was wrong, Klein certainly wouldn’t react in this way

Calix’s breathing sped up as every cell in his body felt excited. Klein was actually angry that he didn’t continue the kiss?

Despite already choosing to remove the growing feelings that Calix has, he simply couldn’t do that anymore after receiving such a reaction from Klein

His heart can’t help but anticipate the future if he were to continue to slowly gain Klein’s heart

Even then, Calix was still in disbelief and he unconsciously blurted out a question that made Klein recover

“S-seriously?” It was only a single word question but Klein acted like a frightened cat

Calix can see imaginary fur rising on Klein’s body due to how frightened he was

“N-no… w-what hik!” Before Klein could even complete a single sentence, he already stuttered greatly and he even had a hiccup

This result was more than enough for Calix to be more assured that his hypothesis was correct

“Y-you really want me to kiss you…” Calix muttered in more of a statement than a question that he immediately regretted in the next second

“I DON’T!” Klein shouted loudly, attracting a lot of people’s attention that wondered what happened

For a moment, Calix forgot how much of a scaredy-cat Klein is. This guy would literally want to run away rather than confront his own feelings

Being too aggressive or giving Klein too much of a shock would turn on his instincts of running away

In the next second, Klein moved his legs as fast as he can as he tried to run away from Calix for the nth time

However, in terms of overall physical capabilities, Calix is ​​superior to him

It didn’t take that much effort for Calix to catch up to Klein that never once looked at him after the shooting ended

“Wait!” Calix stops this frightened guy but that just causes Klein to try to run away more

Calix knew that he couldn’t push him too much and he just whispered on Klein’s ears

“If you want to kiss me, meet me in the garden later tonight” Calix whispered before blowing some air to Klein’s ears that felt goosebumps all over his body

The man’s knees weakened a bit but his instincts still urge him to run away and so he did

This time, Calix didn’t chase anymore as he don’t want his ‘prey’ to resist even more

“It’s alright guys, we were just rehearsing! Don’t worry about us!” Calix shouted to reassure the whole team

If he and Klein were to mess up the shooting again, Henry might take their heads off

Also, since Calix knows that Klein won’t be able to perform normally, he talked to Henry and told him that for now, they should shoot scenes without the lead stars

Most of the scenes that were captured today were all Calix and Klein’s solo scenes. The other scenes that are also essential to the series have been pushed

Although Henry thinks that since the shooting yesterday were all without the lead stars, they should continue according to the original plan but he still agreed in the end

Yesterday, the scenes were composed of different actors and actresses. One person doesn’t work for a long time as there are also other minor characters in the series

It was unlike today’s shooting where the leads are the only ones acting. They might be exhausted already and as long as many scenes would be captured, the order wouldn’t matter that much

——-

“Where’s Klein?” Liam can’t help but ask. It has been like hours already since he last saw his friend

“Who knows? Calix scared him away” Shane answered with a shrug

Currently, their group was resting in the large garden of the mansion. There were many chairs and tables to laze around

After all, since the mansion is used to shoot Historical Genre series, there are places when Nobles or Royals would have tea

The blame was thrown into Calix but he didn’t mind it that much. It was the truth that he was the reason for Klein’s sudden disappearance

“Damn it, I really want to punch you” Cain said through gritted teeth while glaring at his friend that frowned at him

“For the nth time, what the fuck is wrong with you?” Calix questioned with a frown but before Cain can answer, Shane already covered his mouth with her palm

“Settle down will you?” Shane asked helplessly

This is a critical time of Klein’s life. Shane and Cain can act like they don’t notice that there is something wrong with Klein and Calix

Tristan doesn’t really talk that much and he doesn’t gossip nor show many reactions

The only problem was Liam. This guy has a loud mouth. If he knew that something is going on with Klein and Calix, who knows how he might react?

In fact, it was also possible that this piece of news would spread far and wide because of Liam

If that happens, the already frightened Klein would become even more frightened

Shane can’t let her effort go to waste by scaring Klein too much that he would push Calix away from him

She didn’t expect that her friend was this ‘pure’ and ‘fragile’. Just what is wrong with Klein for him to constantly run away from the truth? He’s giving Shane a huge headache

“Scared? What did you do to scare him? I want to know it too!” Liam asked excitedly

As far as he knows, Klein isn’t really scared of anything. Klein can watch scary movies without getting scared. Bugs were merely disgusting to him but not really a fear-inducing thing

What could Calix possibly do to make Klein scared? Liam wants to know it so that he could use it when needed

“Secret” Calix shortly replied and Cain almost punch him if Shane didn’t stop her boyfriend

“Control your weird boyfriend” Calix said before standing up and walking away

Shane also did the same while dragging Cain as she needs to give a ‘good talk’ with him

It was only Liam and Tristan that were left behind by their friends

“D-did they just left us? How rude!” Liam complained with a pout. Just what happened to his friends?

“Want to practice?” Tristan asks after seeing Liam’s mood

“Nah, I’m too lazy and it’s boring to practice acting” Liam refused but that wasn’t what Tristan meant

“I mean piano” Tristan clarified and Liam’s eyes lit up

His friends are away and he doesn’t know what he could do to waste time. Hearing the word ‘piano’ his ears perked up

“There is a piano here?” Liam asked excitedly and Tristan nodded his head

Well, that wasn’t surprising. There were a lot of rooms in the mansion and it has almost everything that is commonly used in historical dramas

Of course, a piano is also available!

With that, the two also stood up from their seat as they head to where the piano room was located

In fact, the piano room was also next to other rooms that has musical instruments in them

The mansion really doesn’t lack anything!

In excitement, Liam immediately took a seat in front of the piano as his little fingers went to test the instrument

Basic but pleasant sounding notes were played by him and Tristan just silently watched the little guy

The two of them have been practicing piano and guitar along with singing in secret for quite some time now. One of the reasons why they are really close with each other

“I actually discovered a new song recently! I wonder if I could play it” Liam said and after testing the piano to get the hang of it, his fingers went to play the notes of his new favorite song

“Fire and ice were meant to be a work of art

But you and I were only meant to be apart

Don’t look back I’ll never get what I’ve lost

You played me like a fool

Naive I gave my heart to you”

Liam played the piano while singing the song and his voice was nothing but pleasant
