Skinship!

The class had finally ended and Rui was supposed to go to the car first, and wait for Cali. While he was inside the car, he tried to balance his current status with Cali.

He wondered if he could start leveling up a bit, like courting her and expressing to her that he liked her. 

"Ahhh…" he frustratingly cried. It was too early to move onto the next step. Besides, Cali just had a bad encounter and trauma with the incident of Kane's confession.

'What if Cali rejects me as well?' Rui horribly mused. He shook his head in an attempt to erase those negative thoughts.

Meanwhile, Cali came out of the locker room after changing back into her casual wear. 

"Hi!"

"Oh my heart!" She cried as her heart had almost forgotten to beat because she got too shocked by the man who suddenly appeared  beside her.

"You get startled too easily." The man commented with a bright smile .

Cali's eyebrows lifted up as she said, "Excuse me, do I know you?"
