"Have you finished it yet?" He gave her a gentle smile as he noticed her approaching him.
"There's something I need to tell you...", she sat next to him, fiddling with her t-shirt's hem.
"What is it?" He set down his laptop and stared at her.
"Now that you've taken back my missing file, I'll be able to return home. I don't want to be a bother...."
"Who said you were a burden to me?" he chuckled as he observed her perplexed expression.
"It's... I heard you had a girlfriend the other day.....and it would only make things worse if..." she muttered.

"It's surprising to see you as a human being. I had hoped to be able to pet you," he pouted as she gave him a cold stare.
She groaned as he reached for the remote and turned it off. He faced her and said, "I've got something on my mind. I'm not sure how to ask you this..."
