Havana is so embarrassed she couldn't dare to look around and ask about where in the great Escarton is she. Then a petite idol-looking girl rushes towards Havana and tries to slap her. Instinctively, she catches the girl's hand. Furious, the girl violently tries to slap Havana with her other hand. But once again Havana instinctively stops the girl's hand.
"How dare you pull that stunt! It almost killed Teo!" the girl yells.
Snapping out of her embarrassment. "Who's Teo?" Havana asks full of bewilderment.
"Stop playing dumb!" The girl is more infuriated with Havana's question to the point she stumps her feet.
"Lily, I'm fine. As for you," Teo the super gorgeous guy turns his gaze to Havana. Havana blushes unconditionally and tries to avoid the gaze.
Teo silently stares at Havana for a moment with a calm temperament then asks "mind telling me why you did what you did?"
"I ...um.. I-I thought a mechanical monster c-captured you and tri-tried to save you..." she answers full of fluster while looking down trying to hide her blushing face.
When everyone who is gathered hears what she says, some burst out laughing while others frown and sneer at her with disbelief clearly showing in their eyes.
"That's the lamest excuse I have ever heard!" Lily shouts while pulling her hand free from Havana's grip. Lily then glares at Havana for good measure.
Startled by Lily's shout Havana looks up still flustered and notice everyone's condemning gaze at her
and it only made her more flustered. But, seeing Teo's serious gaze at her, she stands straight. Not wanting Teo to see her as a liar and to protect her pride as a knight, Havana puts forth the stance of a knight about to take an oath. With all the dignity and pure stunning grace of an elite knight as well as clear steadfast gaze and clear voice she says,
"I solemnly swear upon my honor as a knight of the holy order of the divine nation of Escarton that I, Havana Orcana, am telling the truth. May the great gods bring the highest punishment upon me if they deem my words untrue." At the moment Havana begins her vow, the crowd feels a strong pressure on them making them silent.
As soon as Havan spoke those words, Teo notices a warm glow enveloped Havana. Teo stays quiet. Yet, the shine in his eyes is apparent for all to see. Unfortunately, it seems that Teo was the only one to see the glow surrounding Havana. For the other people there, they just started to loudly rebuke Havana's vow. They exclaim how much of a delusional girl she is.
Havana caught off guard by the hostile response of everyone. She couldn't help but be silent and be at lost what to do. Seeing Havana's confusion and lack of response as well as the animosity of the crowd towards Havana, Teo steps in, he claps his hands together to get everyone's attention.
"I'm truly grateful and sincerely moved that everyone is concern about my safety. So much so that everyone is getting mad at this young lady for my sake, but I'm honestly alright. No scratch or what-so-ever. So please, I would like to ask everybody to calm-"
"But Teo! This- this woman caused your car to crash!" Lily indignantly protests. Hearing Lily's indignation, the crowd that almost calm down was again incited by LIly's words. Havana not knowing what a car is could only look at Teo helplessly and apologetically.
Teo couldn't help but give Lily a cold look, "Lily, the important thing is that I'm perfectly fine in the end. And, it's true that Havana, caused my car to crash but she also saved me from it." Lily flabbergasted with Teo's reply could only open and close her mouth without any sound coming from it. Still Lily stomps her feet in frustration.
Havana's gratefully stares at Teo. She couldn't help but think that this drop gorgeous man is not only is a divine beauty but also amazingly kind! She silently promises to protect Teo whenever she can.
Teo sensing Havana's stare meets her gaze and smiles. Havana immediately blushes and looks up trying hard not to have a nose bleed. Teo couldn't help but grin at Havana's interesting reaction. Somehow, Teo finds Havana honest reactions interesting and fun compared to others around him. Although, Havana's reactions are like that of his fans but has a more intimate feel to it. In this in mind, Teo suddenly comes with an idea of how to handle this mess of what to do with Havana.
Teo who was standing a few feet apart from Havana suddenly closes the gap between them. Havana still looking up and still flustered can only think about how not to get a nose bleed. Teo is quickly beside Havana and mischievously pulls her close to him and exclaims,
"Don't worry everyone, I'll make sure that this young lady would take *responsibility* for what she *did* to me."
With such ambiguous words and seductive voice, everyone couldn't help but gasps and as for Lily, she faints. Havana, hearing those words just inches away and feeling Teo's hand on her waist, she couldn't help but furiously blush. She could hear her heart thump so hard. She quickly covers her nose with her hands as the dreadful nose bleeds that she tried so hard to stops, finally happens.
