Be With You

07

I didn't say yes.

When Sean asked me to go out with him, I didn't agree.

I'm really not sure but that's how I felt when I read his message...

When Quen is in front of me.

But Sean didn't stop what he was doing, he kept sending me foods, flowers and he sometimes visits me during my mural work as a volunteer.

I smiled at the delivery guy who gave me another cup of milkshake, sandwich and cute bouquet of pink roses. I was at the hall, doing some paints when Sean called me that he had something for me again.

"Another gift from your boyfriend?"

Quen asked while looking at his video camera, filming me. Nasanay na rin ako na madalas siyang malapit sa akin habang kinukuhaan ako ng larawan o kung ano ang ginagawa ko. It was for the documentary of the univ week after all.

I smiled and nodded. He always caught me receiving gifts from Sean. I put the flower on the table and drank the milkshake, took a bite on the sandwich before placing it on the table as well.

"He's not my boyfriend." I corrected and chuckled.

Quen moved his video camera down and looked at me smirking.

"Isn't he the sweetest of giving you constant gifts?" he asked and stared at me. "Consistent I must say."

"He did?" I glance at him before looking at my reflection of the sliding door in front of me. The denim jumper pants that I'm wearing were full of paint, even the white tube top that I paired with it.

I shrugged and let it be, fixing my hair that turned into a messy bun with my hair tie.

"Don't tell me that you didn't notice it?" He chuckled and saw him move his video camera again to my side, filming me while I kept fixing my hair. "Turn this way."

I faced him while still doing my hair. His eyes were fixed on the video cam but shifted on me. His lips turn into a small smile.

"What?" I asked, smiling. His gaze turned back on his video cam.

"You're really pretty," he muttered.

I stopped.

but he didn't. He kept a smile on his face and walked closer to me with the video cam in his hand. Halos kalapit na ito ng mukha ko.

"Ano ba!" I lightly slapped away the camera and rolled my eyes. I felt my face heated. Why is it heated? I'm just talking to Quen Jung!

"Are you blushing?" He teased and put back the camera in front of my face again. "Kj, you're blushing. This is not the first time I called you pretty" with a loud laugh that I didn't hear often, Quen continued to film me.

"No! I'm not!" I tried to snatch the camera from him but he was too tall for me to reach it and I think he enjoyed it. "Jung stop filming me!"

"Quen?"

We stopped what we were doing and both turned our attention at the door when Tanya, one of Quen's blockmates and one of the volunteers in the film department called him.
