I'm inside the restaurant again, but I see no sign of Skylark and Jun.

Where did they go?

I glance outside and they are walking towards Asher.

Were they out the entire time?! Uh no..

"Guys! You got our orders." I reach them.

"Yeah. We did." Sky hands me my frappe. She sounds serious.

Jun seems quieter than before.

"I guess its time to leave?" Asher says as he sips his hot choco.

We talk a walk back to the car. It's 9 pm.

"Maya. You do know we saw the encounter with Asher and you at the beach right?" Sky says casually.

I almost spit out my coffee.

"What do you mean? Were you guys outside already?" I say.

"Yes. We were looking for you guys and then Jun and I saw you on top of Asher like that. You should've seen how Jun felt. He seemed disheartened." Sky says.

Woah. They misunderstood the situation. Just what I was afraid of.

"I- it's not what it seemed!! I slipped and Asher helped my clumsy ass!" I explain.

You two just had to see that EXACT moment.

"I kinda thought so too. But Jun seemed upset that it was Asher that you fell on top of." She says.

Ahem. Okay?

I make a confused face.

"Sky.. do you also think Jun likes-"

"Let's hurry up! It's getting crowded." I get interrupted by Asher.

Him and Jun are walking a few meters ahead of us.

"ALRIGHT!" I shout.

"Shotgun!" Sky says as we are about to get inside the car.

"Oh but Sky, Jun was sitting there." I say as I want Sky to sit with me.

"Exactly. He ''was'' Now, its my turn." She shrugs and sits next to the driver's seat.

You're supposed to understand me!

Jun and I sit next to each other in the back seat.

I see him rub his eyes.

"Are you sleepy?" I ask him.

He nods.

Asher starts driving.

The car ride seems alot more silent this time. Maybe its because we're all full. I also feel like a nap after a good meal is important.

Jun moves closer to his side of the window, and flops his head side ways. He looks uncomfortable. And I feel bad as he keeps figuring out the right spot.

"Hey." I tap on his back.

He turns around to look at my direction.

I shift closer to him and tell him to rest his head on my shoulder instead.

He doesn't think much of it and he does what I say.

I feel happy when I'm around you.

I know I can't hide this feeling, I really do like Jun.

"I'm sorry if I looked bothered just now." I hear him say.

"You shouldn't be sorry. Its okay." I tell him.
