Chapter 100 The special card (1/2)
”Where are you going next?” Harry asked when they were done with their lunch.
Ryn checked her phone, frowning. Then, she kept the phone back into the pocket and looked at him. ”Huh?”
”I said where are you going after this?” he repeated back his question.
They were now walking out of the cafe, a bit aimlessly in his opinion, but he just followed her.
”Hmm...? Oh, I need to go to Mika's for a meeting,” she said.
”Do you want me to send you?” Harry would do anything just to prolong the time spend with her. How could it be so short? They only spent like just a few hours meeting the lecturers and lunch. Still not enough!
”You want to send me?” she asked him back. ”Okay. Sure.”
Why should she spend money when she could have a free ride?
She was not that stupid!
He smiled widely. Now, he led her toward his car at the parking lot. So happy!
She put her mobile phone on her laps and put on the safety belt. She needed to tell Mika she was on the way.
”So, how have you been lately? It seems like you are so busy with work,” he asked slowly, carefully. He did not want to sound possessive or jealous or even childish. He tried to sound normal.
”Hmm...” her eyes were busy reading the reply from Mika. Then, she lifted her head and looked at Harry, ”It was fine. Just a usual fashion week.”
”Oh... So, are you going to be busy this week?”
”Hmm... hmm...” Ryn nodded. She did have a lot of things to do. Several photoshoots back to back. Even Mika said she wanted to use a few hours to film something for her Youtube channel.
The meeting for today was to discuss the content of that video. Mika did say it was not a vlog but a proper video. Mika must be felt threatened when a producer wanted to record her when Mika only managed to do just a snippet here and there. To coax Mika's heart, Ryn finally agreed to be featured fully in the video.
”Can I squeeze in an hour or two with you this weekend?” he asked slowly, hopingly.
She finally looked at him. Really-really-really looked at him. Something felt wrong somewhere.
”Harry,” She started, ”Is there something you want to tell me?”
He gulped. Had she guessed? He wanted it to be slow. He wanted to woo her first!
”Erm...ah... nothing. There is nothing to tell you about,” he quickly denied it. His face turned red.
”Really?” her eyes stared hard into his, trying to look deeper.
He nodded quickly.
”Hmm...” She turned back her attention to her phone, already dismissing the idea of him liking her.
