Chapter 179 - Dont Ask Me If I Love You 12: Live Confession (1/2)
Don't ask me if I love you. Don't ask me if I care
If you're playing with my feelings it's more than I can bear
And if this one-sided romance won't even be given a chance
Even if I do love you, even if I truly care
If it's not what you're feeling it's something I can never bear
I know this one-sided romance won't be given a chance
So don't ask me if I love you 'cause I know this dream of love won't come true…
Soon, the music came to a halt, and yet, Anjee's voice still rang inside the room. When at last, it had truly ended, everyone was quiet until the host started clapping and everyone did the same.

”That was such an amazing performance!” the host crowed as she stood up and signaled for Anjee to join them on the couch as she introduced her again. ”The newest singing sensation, Anjee!”
Anjee avoided Peter's gaze as she took a bow and forced herself to walk towards the host. She could feel his eyes on her and her heart raced manically in her ċhėst. Standing next to the host, she found herself being ȧssisted towards the sofa and in a few seconds she was seated right next to Peter!

”It feels so good to be with artists who do great things today,” the host told the audience before turning to Anjee. ”It's a coincidence too that you have the same name as the one Mr. Anter Kim loves,” she added and Peter frowned.
”It's not a coincidence,” Peter muttered under his breath but only Anjee who turned red was the only one who heard him.
”So, Ms. Anjee, your song has been such a hit to the masses. I heard you wrote it yourself?” the host prompted and Anjee nodded in answer. Her throat felt dry and so she couldn't speak.
”Can you tell us the story of the song?” the host asked again. ”When you sing, you sing so passionately so we're all curious to find out what made you write and sing that song.”
Urgh… Awkward. The question was totally awkward, Anjee thought but she was trapped.
There was a momentary silence after. Anjee still couldn't speak and so Peter sighed heavily and placed a hand on her thɨġh out of the blue surprising everyone watching.
”She asked you something Anj.”
