"Why is she not here yet, lecture's gonna start!", Scott looked at his watch anxiously. He looked around and saw everyone else is doing their own stuff. The lecturer was getting ready to start. He lowered his head and closed his eyes tightly.
"Oh... Oh... Oh... Don't go near her, you bastard!!", Scott mumbled from his seat.
"SCOTT KIM! Are you seriously sleeping in my lecture?!", The lecturer shouted out loud. Scott quickly straighten his back while looking down.
"Damn you, Kris!", Scott murmured under his breath, trying his best to concentrate in what the lecturer said. However, his view was cloud by the sight of Kris approaching Amber.
"마누라...!! (Wifey...!!)", Kris hollered out to Amber. She turned around with a confused face. He quickly jog over to her. As he got nearer and a clearer view of her, his steps slowed down.
"Hey...you okay?", He reached out both his hands, caressing her cheeks lightly. Her eyes was showing sign that she cried. An obvious one.
That moment when Amber felt his warm hands, tears slowly filled her eyes all over again, ready to flow anytime. It finally did! Kris was taken aback. That was his first seeing that weak side of hers. This was not what he planned.
"Stop... Kris... You're not supposed to feel this way! Don't forget your initial purpose!", Kris bit his lower lips as he thought to himself. Before he realised it, Amber was already in his embrace. Her tears stopped almost immediately when he pulled her in for a hug.
"Just once... I'll let my heart lead. Just this once!", Kris tighten his embrace.
"Oh...?", Amber tried to push him away but he was way more stronger than she is. They were in that position for almost 5 minutes when she finally felt his grip loosen.
"You! If you ever show this side of yours to other guy, you're dead!", Kris look away.
"This line always worked for girls, you're included! Heh! Typical!", Kris smirked to himself while looking at Amber's confused face. He was one hundred percent sure she was wavered by his words.
"What's wrong with this guy...strange...", Amber thought to herself and forced a smile.
"Urm... Kris... I've got class to attend to...", She simply thought of an excuse to get away from Kris. She quickly walked off before turning around and said, "Thanks... Your touch... It was... warm.". Amber smiled brightly and waved.
Kris's cheeks were flushed red, "Mwoya.. (What the...) Why am I... ", he clutched onto his chest before continuing, "Yeppo.. (Pretty..) Neomu.. (Very..)".
"Eh? Wifey? Why did he call me that?", Amber turned around but realised Kris is not there anymore.
Instead, she saw a familiar figure approaching her. She quickly turned around and walked as fast as she could. "Please..please..please.. don't let him catch up! PLEASEEE~", Amber prayed silently, still keeping a fast pace.
"Yah! Amber..", her wrist was grabbed and she was forced to turn back around. She lowered her head and eyes, hoping that she was not caught crying. She did not want to show that weak side of hers again and she was afraid he would ask why.
"Did Kris do this to you just now?"
"What are you..." Amber mumbled, then quickly look up. "Scott.. How did you know I met Kris?". A long silent filled the air. "I'm pretty sure, you're not here just now...", she continued.
Scott avoided her eyes. He need to think quick to get out of the suspicion. "Guess... Yes.. I was just guessing..".
"No, you weren't! You sounded too confident to be guessing..", Amber raised her eyebrows. "Scott..." She uttered.
"Why did you cried?", Scott asked suddenly. Reversed psychology. That was exactly what he was doing and it worked. Amber looked anxious suddenly.
"Who said I cried.. I just... Hey... you came out of the lecture hall?", Amber threw him a question.
"Yes.. halfway.. prof was screaming on top of his lungs.. I still came out anyway. Bet I gonna fail my assignment!", Scott shrugged.
"Why?", Amber looked into his eyes. Scott gulped, "Shit..back to this topic again!".
"You were absent. It was boring. So... I decided to look for you.", He said.
"And you found me... this easily? When the fact is I'm at this isolated place?", Amber narrowed her eyes, concentrating on Scott. He looked around, indeed that place was quite far from the lecture hall and was not the usual route he will use.
"Pure luck.", he acted calm and this made Amber speechless. He was so confident in his answer that Amber did not know how to respond.
"Thanks God it worked!", Scott smirked looking at Amber's almost persuaded face.
"Why are you here then?", Scott asked. Amber felt reluctant to answer but she know she can't fool her best friend anymore.
"Shortcut to my dorm.. I wanted to skip lectures. As for why I'm crying... I'm not ready to tell. Please don't ask any further, Scott.", she pleaded. He was never the type to force her, so he decided to wait til she's ready to share.
One late evening, Amber received a message from Scott.
[Hey, next week, there's a trip to Hanyang Rainforest. We're joining. Just informing you. I'm going, so I'm bringing you along! Hehe! ^^] - Scott
[>< Shits!] - Amber simply replied.
She did not know and there's no way she will know then that, that trip would've land her into so much problems.
