chapter 19

Anton was busy on telling me that I need to eat faster or else we'll get late for our first class, but I can't seem to care because all I can focus on right now while he was busy talking was his lips, and how cute his lips corners looked like every time he talks.

"The corner of your lips look really pretty, Anton." I couldn't help but say out loud. Even feeling a bit embarrassed after realizing what I just blurted out.

"I just told you a lot of things, but that's all you're gonna say?" Anton shot back with a glare, but his already reddening face was fast enough to betray him. He really is so adorable, getting shy by just a simple compliment.

After eating, my Ma reminded Anton again to check on me tonight since I'll be alone. Of course, she did that while my father wasn't here or else I'll get caught that I am pursuing a guy that he has already treated as his own son.

"Seatbelt's on, yuyu?" he asked as soon as we were inside his car, while I gave him a thumbs up.

"Is it bad if I tell you that I got so pissed off when Bora sat here instead of me? Your very own passenger princess?" I asked, in a joking manner, and Anton couldn't help but laugh at the memory.

"That's why I told you to be more selfish of me. And to be honest, I also didn't really like the idea of having another person sit there if it wouldn't be you," Anton answered. He even glanced at me when we stopped because of the red light.

"You are becoming more bold now, Anton lee." I joked again, and I was shocked that Anton just laughed a bit but was still staring at me with a smile on his face. This guy. How dare he look so cute right now?

"Eyes on the road, Anton." I reminded him, and I was glad when he did because I was already losing the confidence I mustered from how intent his gaze was a while ago. I can also feel my heart beating so fast.

Damn. He really is bad for my health.

Our friends were fast enough to welcome us when we reached our campus. It's funny, because we just saw each other yesterday but we act as if we missed each other so much.

Well, except for one person.

"Hi, Anton!" Bora greeted Anton immediately, and I wanted to tell her to stop going near him, but I stopped myself. I really am being so insecure and immature right now when she doesn't even do anything out of the ordinary.

I don't want to bring any toxicity around Anton, that's why I am trying my best to control my jealousy. He doesn't deserve to get treated the same way his ex treated him. He deserves the best, that's why I'm trying to be better.

"Sungchan's MIA again. I can't bear him always missing, imagine once he enters the military. I don't think I can be a military wife." Eunseok joked like he was the wife of my brother who'll be left behind.

"You can, if you adopt me as your child," Rina joked as well.

"You do know that he can get exempted if he ever win an olympic medal," Shotaro said, and the others couldn't help but agree. Because knowing my brother, he'll do anything he can to be able to win that medal.
