"You're frowning all the way."

"Yeah." I respond monotonously to the person who is sitting on the sofa, strumming the guitar.

"Why is that?"

"Well, it's because of that damn Jia, who is teasing me about getting together with you."

"(Chuckle)"

"Why the hell are you laughing?" I swear while getting myself seated next to him.

"Because you tend to wriggle this way, that's why he always teases you."

"How do you know that I wriggle? So maybe if I sit still, they can't tease me right?"

"A person like you, there's no way you can sit still, isn't that so, Zon?" Said Saifah with his eyebrows raised irritatingly.

"You don't know me that well, right?"

"Nope, but one can tell only by looking at your behaviour."

"Is my behaviour that easy to see through?"

Ai'Saifah doesn't respond. He just nods and lowers his head whilst continuing to strum the guitar. 

Listening to the melodic acoustic tones that Saifah plays, I realise it's a song from one of my favourite bands

Listening to the melodic acoustic tones that Saifah plays, I realise it's a song from one of my favourite bands. The lyrics are about secretly loving someone but being unable to tell that person.

[T/N: Imagining the rooftop scene *crying on the corner*]

I change my position, sitting cross-legged so I can look at his face as he continues to play.

Damn it, it's so fucking charming when a guy plays a good solo. If it was me, I think there might be no difference at all.

"So pro!" As soon as Saifah finishes, I immediately applause loudly for him. "I want to play like this too."

"You can."

"I'm not sure if I could ever get this good."

"Have a bit of confidence, Zon. Even I believe that you can do it."

"Even when you just know me, Saifah? Where did you get your faith in me from?"

"Well, I didn't get it from anywhere. I just think you can do it."

"..."

"Why are you making such a face?"

"Nothing, I'm just- Whatever, it's better for you to continue teaching me." I became speechless when Saifah asked me this, because in the past I never encountered someone who would say that I could do it.
