"I will take you to the campus when we get time after work, I will," Chris said to Liyana. Liyana did not respond. She was not sure how to reply to it. She looked at Chris. She took a deep breath.
'No not him. Never him,' she kept telling herself. 'Never Christopher Bang.'
"There is no use holding back," he said as if he read her mind. "What is bound to happen will happen," he said casually and smiled.
"What?" Liyana asked back.
"Oh nothing," he said and looked away. "What is your work after six today?" Chris wanted to know.
"I have a meeting," Liyana said.
"With who?" Chris asked.
Liyana looked at him. "Why do you care?" she asked back.
"I should know everything," he shrugged.
"You don't have to," she said and looked away. She kept her mouth shut. Liyana was going to meet a new teacher to brush up on her piano lessons. She so badly wanted to learn music. But she wanted to keep it a secret.
