Shamelessness

Back at the gazebo.

Jennie and V left the living room and came out, after they were at quite distance from the mansion's main door.

Jennie picked up her pace and went ahead, taking long steps, actually almost running, leaving V behind.

When V saw what she is upto he shouted at her back.

"hey wait, I'm not going to eat you so stop running away"

"What if you actually did that, who believes you" she shouted back as she stopped and looked back at him before turning her back at him to continue walking.

V caught up to her by taking long strides and said with Mischievous smile on his lips. "I do have a thought of eating you up but you might not like the way I'll do that"

Jennie took a while to respond as she didn't understood it at first but as soon as she did, she countered back.

"As if I'm dying for you to do that to me"

She said and walked speedily when she heard him again "I'm your guest, you should not treat me like this"

"I didn't asked you to be my guest" she retorted with greeted teeths.

"Such a sharp tongue" V exclaimed with clicked teeths.

"Such a romantic surrounding and you are wasting your time in bickering with me " V said as he looked at the sides of the path they are walking on, which is beautifully decorated with colourful lights till it reaches the gazebo.

Which is also decorated beautiful and romantically, the view is so breathtaking that anybody would want to have stroll and have some lovely quality time with their special ones.

"Who will take note of romantic surrounding when the spoiler is here to spoil the mood" she sneered.

"Why not try it with me instead of bickering, hand-in-hand, Intertwined fingers , peaceful stroll in silence how amazing will that be, right" V said as he acted of imagining such things.

Jennie looked at him with mouth agape, in total disbelief.

SUCH SHAMELESSNESS

"What do you think" V looked at her dumfounded and disbelief filled expression and pursed his lips not to broke down in fit of laughter.

"Stop being delusional, okay" Jennie asked with same expression plastered on her face.

"I'm not being delusional, sweetheart. This can and will actually happen between us" he said,now in serious tone, looking at her intensely.

Meanwhile Jennie.

*badump badump badump*

When Jennie heard him say 'sweetheart', she was so mesmerized that she didn't even heard what he said next as her heart quicken it's beating.

'What's wrong with my heart, why it's palpitating so widely' she mused.

Seeing her looking strangely at him, V waved his hand in front of her face.

"Are You alright" he asked.

"Whatever" she said and walked ahead.

And this time V didn't stopped her as he quietly followed behind.

Once they sat on the chair, across each other, none of them spoke for a long while. Jennie saw him unusually quiet and felt guilty for being so rude to him. Not being able to take this awkward silence ,she asked.

"What were you going to tell Grandpa, earlier" she asked.

V looked at him and answered truthfully " Nothing I was just going to state that I found a really good assistant"

"To force me to let you accompany me" she stated.

"Why would I, I thought you must have told them about being my personal assistant, as you have asked for apartment also so.. " V explained.

Jennie pursed her lips, she did misunderstood him so she apologized and explained.

"Sorry, I thought you did that to force me " she said and continued. "I haven't told anyone about me doing a job but before I move out I'll do that."

V nodded and didn't comment, he didn't speak much after she ignored him when he asked her if she is alright.

Feeling guilty she apologized again "I'm Sorry"

Feeling surprised V looked at her and asked "For what "

"Earlier I was so rude to you that's why I'm sorry, I shouldn't be treating you like that" Jennie looked at him.

"No need to be sorry but I was actually a little upset as this is my first time being so obvious about my feelings " V decided to be vocal about how he felt about her.

"I'm not asking you to answer me or we should start dating at this instance but I'm rather being clear about how I feel about you" V explained so that she would not feel burdened.

"I... I " Jennie tried to Say something but couldn't form words.

"It's okay I said I will not force you to date me but it is also sure I will also not stop pestering you"V smiled.

Jennie looked at him but couldn't bring herself to reject or accept his feelings outrightly.

She couldn't deny that she did felt something between them but as this is first time she is feeling something like this she couldn't get clear view of everything she is experiencing, she is confused but don't have the time to get this confusion cleared up as there are more and much important things on her plate for now.

"By the way, when are you going to join" he asked, seeing she couldn't form any answer.

"After I convince my Grandpa and parents, I'll move out" Jennie explained.

"It's okay, I'll wait" V said and smiled enchantingly.

Jennie nodded and saw her brother coming so stood up to inside.

"I'll think about that thing" shocked, V looked at her, actually he didn't expected to hear such a answer, not this fast actually.

Jennie left with light red colour on her cheeks, without waiting for his reply.

Passing by her brother, she nodded and went towards the main door.

Jennie's brother went and sat on the chair where she was sitting and looked at V in the eye and asked.

"Did I offended you somehow, Mr. V" he asked with stern expression on his face.

V looked at him, with serious and biased expression but didn't replied.

Back at the living room

Grandpa Lee saw Jennie coming alone so when she approached near him, he asked.

"Where is he"

"He is with big brother"she replied and grandpa Lee nodded and then said.

"Go call Lisa, it's time for dinner " Jennie nodded and climbed the stairs.

When she was about to go to terrace, as Lisa told them where they were going to chat before leaving the living hall, she saw her room's closed door and decided to first use the washroom and then go to terrace.

When she opened the door, which was not locked, she was greeted with the lovey-dovey scene of her sister and the doctor.

Feeling shocked and surprised, she dumbfoundedly mumbled something stupid before closing the door behind.
