It was time for break.

First period was over and guess what, it was dryer than dry.
In fact, today seemed so boring, not just to me but to everyone. Some students looked gloomy, some looked slightly energetic, some...just there.

"Ehen Benjamin, you said that you would tell me what happened on Saturday evening." I rushed up to him before he could leave for break.

He cocked an eyebrow at me. "Nothing happened on Saturday evening." He said simply. "Besides, I already told you on WhatsApp."

"On WhatsApp? Yesterday?" I furrowed my brows.

"Uh-huh." He nodded.

"I didn't come online yesterday."

"Then when you come online, you'd see it." He seemed not to be in a bright mood today. Well, I couldn't blame him. Everyone in the class seemed the same.

"Why don't you just tell me now?"

"Ehn...so I just wasted my data right?" He said jokingly.

"No." I whined. I knew where this was heading already.

"But sorry, I can't waste my saliva repeating what I already told you on WhatsApp." He started walking out of the class, but I stood him to a halt.

"Benji na...!" I whined, shaking his arm.

He stood still but didn't face me. I presumed he was smiling 'cause of how his cheeks were.

"If you like be smiling rubbish smile there."

He turned back. I guessed right, he was smiling. "On one condition would I tell you." His smile changed swiftly into a smug smirk.

"Which is?" I looked at him mischievously. I wonder what the condition would be.

"Kiss me."

I exclaimed. "You know that's not possible."

"Why not?" He frowned a bit. He sounded a bit offended.

"Duh! Cause we're in public."

"And so what?"

"Benji!" I hit him on the arm a little.

"Yeah yeah! Whatever." He rolled his eyes. "So are you gonna kiss me or not?"

I widened my eyes. Was he actually being serious now? Or could it be that he didn't hear what I said? "You know what? Don't bother telling me. I'd just check it when I get home." I turned to leave but he stopped me.

"Wait wait." He placed both his hands on my waist, stopping me.

I turned back immediately so his hands could drop from my waist. I didn't want anyone to see us like that. I just hope no one did.

"What?" I frowned a bit, placing my hands akimbo.

"Nothing." He imitated me– my look and my position. He looked so adorable imitating me.

"So why did you stop me?" My frowned look became stern.

"Is it bad to stop you?" He further imitated my look. Fuck! He looked adorable.
