Bellona pushed him away and saw him smiling. She immediately stood up and said, "Is it so funny to make a fool of me? I got so scared and you were playing around."
Preston held her hand, stopping her from leaving. He looked at her, "Sorry but I wanted to see that you care for me. I didn't want you to..."
"I don't care for you. I just wanted...."
"Yeah, yeah. I know, I really do..."
Seeing him teasing her she asserted, "I am serious. I don't care..."
"Yeah, I know..." Preston covered his ears with his hands while walking away from her and she followed him. She cried out, "Where are you running? Did you hear me? I really don't care for... Wait, Prez! You were playing tricks with me..."
Preston could feel her walking after him. He smiled and kept walking. The moment he fell to the ground he felt like playing a trick with her. It would surely be easy to see how she cared about him.
