Chapter 5: Her POV 3
Waaaaaaa!!! Why is he here? What should I do? What should I do? Could he hear my heartbeat? Waaaaaaa!!! What should I do?!
"I-I'm sorry..."
E-eh?
Then the awkward silence engulfed the surroundings, so I decided to talk.
"I-It's okay---" "About that---"
We both stopped as soon as we heard both of ourselves talking at the same time. And then I decided to talk again.
"Y-You go first---" "Please go on---"
And stopped again. The funny thing is, we laughed in the end. Now the awkward atmosphere is no longer present.
He cleared his throat before talking and offered his hand for a handshake, "I'm Driane Jake Aone, DJ for short. I'm sorry for what happened earlier in the morning and for earlier right now---- I mean, I didn't mean it. I'm very sorry." he sincerely said.
I was hesitant at first but I felt the sincerity of his words that's why I accepted his hand and said, "A-Ann, Anntoinette Foralla. I-It's ok. Y-You have a good reason why you did that, right?" why am I stuttering?
He scratched the back of his neck while looking away, and it took a while before he answered the question my mind, "Actually, about that... Uhhhh--- k-kiss..."
I was thankful that he was looking away because if not, my face would be redder than it is right now.
"Ummm... How will I say it... Ughh..." he whispered, but I heard it. "T-The truth is, I had a bet with my be--- friend and whoever is the loser will do the dare of the winner. And, yeah, I guess you know who won." he chuckled. It was contagious that I couldn't resist smiling.
"As I was saying, I will do his dare whether I like it or not. But since he had a few screw loose inside his head, his dare was to kiss a girl, to her cheeks."
I was about to ask him when he continued talking, "I-I know what I did was wrong, but I couldn't resist it. I don't know why but I was captivated by you." he said while covering half of his face by his hand. It took a while for me to fully digest what he said and when it did, it's like all of my blood was rushing to my face that's why I looked down.
The long, awkward silence was back. I can't find the right words to say something about what he said. I mean, who would, right? And a shy person to boot. You have to say something, Ann! Think faster, think!
And before I could think clearly, someone barged in the infirmary and hurriedly walked towards here. After a moment, he is now in front of us. He looked at DJ, and looked at me, and then back to DJ, before saying something that made DJ agitated a bit.
"Jake, we--- no, you, have a problem."
