"I'm sorry. I've taken it the wrong way." Vania apologized.
"Please don't. I swear I've never had feelings for President Luke." Kiki was close to raising her hand to swear.
Vania smiled embarrassingly in response. "I noticed that you would constantly peek at him, so I thought you had feelings for him. I wanted to dissuade you and remind you that you have a bright future ahead, but it looks like it's just my imagination. I'm sorry." Since she had made a mistake, she should own up to it.
Kiki got somewhat anxious as she never thought her actions would cause Vania to misunderstand her. Then, seeing how Vania kept apologizing, she felt even worse. "Please don't say that, Ms. Greyson. The person I actually like is… is…" She suddenly had a hard time putting her feelings into words.
"You don't have to say it. It's my fault. I shouldn't have asked you like this."
Kiki finally couldn't take it anymore when she heard Vania's apology, and she shut her eyes tightly while bellowing, "Ms. Greyson, the person I actually like is you!"
What?! Vania was utterly dumbstruck, and she froze for good. I'm not hearing voices, am I? Did Kiki just say that she likes me?
The whole incident was like a roller coaster ride, and Vania thought her heart was going to give in.
Kiki, on the other hand, didn't give a damn anymore, even with how shocked Vania was. "I've had a crush on you from the moment I met you. Since then, I tried my best to become someone like you, and only then would I be worthy of standing by your side. I've also come for the audition to be closer to you."
Her face turned redder by the second, and she eventually got a little embarrassed. "As for why I kept peeking at President Luke… I wanted to see just how excellent someone has to be worthy of standing next to you."
However, Vania was still reeling at what Kiki had just said. All she could do was replay her thoughts. Does Kiki have a crush on me?! She's only been eyeing Hanson to see how excellent her competition is?! Well, I'm sorry, but I don't deserve you at all.
Kiki knew Vania would certainly be dumfounded after hearing her words, so to ease her shock, she continued to explain, "Ms. Greyson, please don't take this to heart or get oversensitive about this. I don't have any other intentions."
Huh, I'm already oversensitive about it. Can time turn back and let none of this ever happen? Vania had successfully illustrated the meaning of asking for trouble.
"I know you won't accept my confession, so I just see you as my role model. I only hope that you'd allow me to keep you in my heart." Kiki was still trying to explain herself.
However, Vania's mind was already in utter chaos. She had no idea what Kiki said later and how she left the cafe.
After returning to her hotel room, she laid flat on the bed and fixed her gaze on the ceiling like she had lost her soul.
"Darling, I'm back." Hanson came back to a stumped Vania lying on the bed, never once blinking as she mumbled non-stop, "She said she likes me. She actually likes me?"
Hanson panicked upon hearing the word 'like', and he rushed up to Vania, holding her in his arms. "What did you just say, darling?"
"She said she likes me, haha." Vania looked straight at Hanson.
"Who? Who told you they liked you?!" Hanson's grip on her tightened at once.
Who here has a death wish now?! How dare they even think about stealing my woman?!
The pain from Hanson's grip helped Vania regain some of her senses, and she said, "Someone confessed their love for me, saying they like me."
