(Mint POV)
I would be happy if Freddie manages to get inside of Jasmine's heart. he has been chasing her for so long, and she keeps on rejecting his feelings towards her. it would be better for both of them. if they become a couple thing 🤔, I may give up on worry about Jasmine. ah! forget it.
I should focus on my own story. as for my heart, I wasn't sure about it. so, I called out Han for having a conversation. but first thing first I forget to tell you that he is unknown about my sexuality. as for the purposes of keeping it hidden, I have to always communicate with him properly in that way that he won't notice anything suspicious. I don't want him to know who is the person I'm talking about. as he didn't know about me up till now. if somehow I spoke thing which I would not suppose to speak, things will become a little uncomfortable for him. if I didn't take precautions I might get caught.
I and Han goes to an old coffee shop. it was near the main street of the college road It was one of the oldest coffee shops in this town, and quite not that much famous, as a result, fewer people visit here. the average quantity of the customer is like 10-15 a day. that quite not much helpfull in running business. their business is not working so casually good but still, they want to open the shop up to this December, after that the shop will be closed. luckily the owner has other business of restaurants too, on the other side of the city and that runs quite pretty well. this coffee shop was opened by the owner's late father. so it was precious to him, but the condition of this shop is not very well and having fewer customers make it difficult to maintain and run the shop. so, even after repairing the shop, it might not perform well due to minor popularity, it will not run smoothly and advertising it can cost a lot too. so he decided to shut it down.
"So Mint, anything special you want to talk about?"
"ya, kind of."
"Why are you look so nervous? everything is alright."
"Yes, what should have wrong?"
I was like a little nervous and having sweet all over my body. I think he got me. but, It wasn't confirmed so I keep on talking normally. I used an old method of giving a situation, taking someone varied example instead of me and Martin.
"Han, there is a situation that occurs to my friend. a friend from the old school, he has a crush on a person. the thing is, he is confused about his feelings. like he was sensing that is maybe a temporary crush and can be over shortly over time. he was not sure that he likes the person. and he wants to get sure that if he really likes it that person or not?"
"Hmm, the current situation is quite difficult to explain."
Han nodded his head while holding his chin with his thumb and forefinger.
"A! tell me the friend you are talking about is it a guy or a girl?"
"It's a guy."
"Then what the problem here. your friend has to approach the person. when he started hitting on the person, the guy will automatically know about his feelings towards that person. if it's a temporary feeling then he will back off, if true, he will continue to approach and get the person's heart. and he is a guy. if your friend was a girl she might have a problem to make a move first. why is it so difficult?"
"AAAA!"
"let me explain you in simple words, look if you like a person, what will you do first? you make a move right? the more you like the person the more you wanna make yourself available for that person. but here the condition is that he is not sure about his feelings. as for he a man he has to make an approach in order to settle his heart. for that, he should spend more time and tries to acknowledge the person more. for that, he has to first let go of the feeling of guilt and shame and 2nd do not treat the person he likes just as a friend, a fair warm treatment is a need. make that person special man.
One of the methods is to hit on directly. otherwise, he will never be confirmed."
I was just trying to understand the sentences that he has delivered in front of me. he is quite good at talking, to make an understandable statement.
"So how can the guy make a move is there any techniques for that?"
"Mint it's never been the exact right way to approach someone. if the guy really likes the person you have mentioned. he will do something to win the person's heart."
ya, I can now understand. just have to make myself little more cool and calm minded and try me not to hesitate to make a move. as I saw Martin was so confident while making an approach to Eric, I should do that too. I smiled at him after listening to those words and nodded my head with that smile. but that smile doesn't last for long.
"Is this person you mentioned like to be named Martin?"
my happy face turned into neutral and my expression possessed a confusion form.
I was shocked. how does he? I was not sure about that. but I kept silent and keep starting into his question eyes continuously.

The unknown place in Thailand near Pattaya city.
A man was peacefully sleeping over his table, oh! sorry, my mistake. he is having a peaceful nap. he looks like a scientists work under the government agency of paleoseismology (A related field that uses geology to infer information regarding past earthquakes) I forget sorry again, it's seismologist (A seismologist is a scientist who does research in seismology.)
at sudden...
the seismometer was taking a reading very high (A device that responds to ground motion caused by earthquakes, volcano eruption and explosion.)
The mother earth has taken a little bit of turn. the whole land was stared shaking.
"chief come here quick."
Chief came too fast from another room while shielding his head with his hands. and asked.
"What is the reading of the seismogram?"
(A recording of earth motion as a function of time is called a seismogram.)
"It shows 7.8 magnitudes."
"Oh! my God. that's too much. let it be but first, shield ourself from the falling materials."
everyone inside the room quickly gets under the table.
