He was about to kiss her, but Jennifer stopped him. She said smugly, mimicking what he said earlier, "Is that so? Well, you can catch these hands then!" She pushed his finger backward. That'll teach you not to flirt with me. It hasn't been two seconds, and he's already flirting around so much. I'll have to teach him a lesson.
Bryan opened his mouth as wide as possible and gasped. "Ouch, that hurt!"
Jennifer wouldn't believe him, of course. She didn't even put her back into it, so there was no way he would be hurt. "Hmph! Believable, but you won't fool me! I'm no ordinary audience." She turned around and left.
Bryan stopped his acting and went after her. "Wait for me, Jennifer!"
While the two of them were going back to work, our main characters were hiding around the corner, listening in on the conversation. They didn't hear the start though, but they heard the last part of it.
Vania laughed. Yep, a failed confession, I guess. Funny as heck.
Jennifer was about to leave when she heard the laughter. She stopped in her tracks and looked at the corner. Oh no. Vania and Hanson? "W-What are you…" She blushed, a little tongue-tied. I can't believe they're eavesdropping on us! Not when they're super famous people! And how much did they hear? Everything? This is so embarrassing.
Vania covered her mouth to hide her smile. She said, "We were just passing by. We heard nothing." She looked at Hanson, asking for his help.
Hanson wouldn't rat on her, so he nodded. "We were just passing by." To listen in on you guys, of course.
Jennifer didn't believe a word they just said and scrutinized them.
"Hehe." Vania chuckled and teased, "Just keep doing what you're doing. Let's go, darling." She held Hanson's hand and tried to leave right away. It was awkward that they were found eavesdropping.
The corner of Jennifer's lips twitched. Keep doing what? We weren't doing anything.
Bryan had caught up to Jennifer. One look at her face and he knew Vania had teased her. He came to her defense and said, "Hey, don't bully her, Vania. You're not the only one who can flirt around, you know? We can too."
Vania's eyes shone. She wanted to know all about what happened. "You guys are going out now?" Oh my god. What did I miss? They're zooming through the love progression. So they know the love is mutual now?
"No," Jennifer denied. She didn't expect the aloof Vania would love to gossip so much. She looked at Bryan angrily, waiting for him to back her up.
Bryan nodded. "Nope. It's true. She hasn't said yes yet."
"I see." Yeah right. I've been in your place once. I know what's going on. But it's their problem, so I'd best stay out of it.
