Capturing your cheers for me

NEXT DAY

Since Therese felt that she didn't want only Gerona to do the effort that she did for her, she wanted to surprise her in the morning before classes started, she might want to text her but don't want to bother her.

She visited their art room yet as soon as she stepped almost in the entrance, she saw someone who goes near to Gerona, that woman is demure, obedient and with poise. Also nice and doesn't understand why she needs to be jealous though they are not yet together.

'Think properly, this isn't you and they are classmates. A classmate in need' I said in my mind to make myself clear.

Someone asks Gerona to help her with her painting so she agrees and goes to someone's workplace to help. She has that friendly personality by helping that person right away, she checks if it's a relevant painting, if there's a problem or what she does next, if they convey the message. Therese definitely loves that personality of Gerona but why is she in denial if she's jealous or not.

After that she's done helping her classmate and goes back to her workplace, all of a sudden she wave at Therese to say hello, while she's walking towards Gerona, she wave back to say hello too and go beside her while seeing the the unfinished painting but does she know even that's not yet finished, it will be very beautiful since Gerona's the one who makes it.

"Why are you here? At this hour, do you want to see someone or me?"
"Oh I want to see you before I go to class because of what happened at midnight, do you remember that you asked me to be your model for your sculpture. You asked me in the gymnasium, well that's what I want to do, to check you what are you doing."

Still surprised and flattered she still remembers that like, do I need to scream or should I be calm?

"Ahh, now I know why you want to see me, okay interesting" she said with a nod, it feels like a good day to be enthusiastic in the morning.

"This is also a courtesy that I'm giving you feedback because I owe you, alright." Now she remembered that although Gerona doesn't want feedback, she's still that person who is willing to give that. Though to her busy days, she still gives that to a person and that makes her day by giving it.

They both smiled together, she asked about her painting and she told her what it is. They just want to chuckle instead, well for a reason if they are loud maybe they might distract someone who is still working, seeing her painting it, makes me want to paint too like look how she strokes those brushes, goddess! I will fall for this even more to her art and mostly especially her.

"Btw, who asked you to help her?" Therese asked her due to her curiosity.

"Oh she's Mary and she's my classmate, we are friends. We asked for help sometimes or she asked me what my opinion was about her artwork, like nothing new. That's how it was for us here in this class." Gerona circulated to her head why Therese asked this all of a sudden about Mary. Is she jealous or maybe curious about the person? She doesn't know the answer.

Little did she know, even if she acted in denial or not making it obvious that she is jealous but it's the opposite, it's literally obvious and the one who is beside her, sees it.

"I asked why not! I am new here in this room like I passed this on the hallway but not yet visited, only you I know that always goes here." She said to make excuses, hoping she would buy it.

"Why are you jealous? Hey, I think you have no rights first to have that mood because we are not yet together" she said playfully while looking at Therese, knowing that they don't have any label yet and their relationship is not yet confirmed if it's a crush or taken.

"Oh, right... I must not feel that way though" she apologized after that with an embarrassed smile

'I must not think like that, we are not yet together and silly' she said it to her thoughts

"No, it's alright plus your feelings are valid, I didn't even know you can be jealous but I understand" tilt her head a little with a crooked smile.

"Oh I think I better go, maybe I might be late to class" after she said that she whispered to herself a curse word.

"Yes, I think you should go now and can't wait to see you again, nice seeing you here btw!" She shouted a little while seeing Therese walking to go through the exit. She enjoyed seeing Therese earlier like looking at her beautiful aspect makes her want to do what she loves.
