Chapter 11:I like you (2/2)

”Are you close to your dad?” asked Andrew. Even though he had known Carolina for 3 years, that woman never really told her family. All he knew was that Carolina came from Manado with an ordinary family. That's why Carolina is struggling so hard to keep her scholarship.

”Yes! But my memory with my dad only until I was 6 years old,” said Carolina who seemed lost in her memory.

”Oh, sorry,” said Andrew, feeling that Carolina's father was no longer there. If that woman's memory only reaches the age of 6 years, it means that Carolina's father died when Carolina was 6 years old, right?

”My dad is still alive! He just disappeared! But I'm sure he's still alive!” said Carolina confidently that her father was still alive. Even though it has been 14 years since his father has disappeared, she is sure that her father is still alive!

Andrew, who saw Carolina's mood swings, tried to think of something to improve the woman's mood.

”Want to get closer to the water?” asked Andrew, hoping Carolina's mood would improve.

”Sure! To make it more fun, let's race from here to the edge of the sea. The winner is the one who touches the water first,” suggested Carolina, suddenly excited. Andrew immediately smiled when he heard it.

”Okay! What is the punishment for the loser?” asked Andrew with a smile.

Carolina was silent for a moment, trying to think about her punishment, but a few moments later a nosy smile appeared on her lips.

”Plunging into the water on his back,” said Carolina with a defiant smile and began to take off the sandals she was wearing.

”Deal!”

”Three… two… one…,” Carolina counted down for them. However, Carolina had already run ahead on the count of two.

That woman stole a start!

But Andrew didn't mind at all, from the start he didn't care about the punishment Carolina was saying.

Seeing that woman running around laughing was worth more than getting punished. He was even willing to throw himself many times as long as he could see that laughter again.

”What a cheat! Watch out, I'll catch you later,” said Andrew, but his smiling face was clearly the opposite.

Immediately Andrew thought about many things.

Did he have to run with the aim of catching Carolina, hugging her from behind and lifting her up, considering their current mood?

Or he should act as usual, try to reach the seawater, but of course he will allow Carolina to win.

After some deliberation, he chose the latter option. He can make the first choice when she is his.

”Yeay, hahaha,” said Carolina when the waves hit her feet.

”Cheating! You're cheating, you run first,” said Andrew approaching Carolina who was playing water with her feet.

”Nooo! I won! Over there, splash into the water! ” said Carolina stomping the water excitedly, and trying to target Andrew to get the splash of water.

”Yes yes!” said Andrew in a forced tone, but again his voice didn't match his grinning face.

”Come on, give me your cell phone, let me record it as well,” said Carolina, stretching out her hand. Andrew immediately took out his cell phone and opened the shirt he was wearing. But after he thought about it again, it's better to take off the clothes too.

Finally, Andrew's body was exposed, his broad chest and stomach had 4 pack abs as a result of him often exercising, with brown skin that made Andrew look sexy.

Carolina holds Andrew's clothes and starts filming videos using Andrew's cell phone.

”This is him, the man who has a birthday today,” said Carolina while filming Andrew.

”Move back again, Ndrew, go back, the water must reach the thigh so it doesn't hurt!” shouted Carolina. Andrew also complied.

”Say something first Ndrew before you go to water!” shouted Carolina again.

”CAROLINA AKAI!” shouted Andrew, starting to attract the attention of the people around him.

Andrew's mind once again thought a lot about what to say.

Does he have to say something like:

”I'll get back to you later! Just wait!” as a reminder of their current moment and strengthen their friendship.

Or he should confess his feelings.

After some deliberation, he finally chose the second option. It was time for him to be brave and confess his feelings.

”I LIKE YOU!”
