''....You....''

Noah struggled to hold in his laughter. ''Why you sound like those CEOs in those online novels?''

Ayana gave him an unimpressed look. ''I'm not joking, Noah.''

''Of course you aren't.'' Noah replied with playful smirk. '' Our President Kingston isn't one to tell a joke.''

''I mean what I said.''

''I know that too.'' Noah chuckled softly as he focused his gaze back on the movie. There was a momentary silence as they watched a kissing scene of the movie before he spoke up.

''Thank you.'' He said, quietly. ''I know I am acting like an immature adult, but I'm glad you don't find my behavior inappropriate.''

The trigger of his pent-up frustrations was certainly this movie that featured his younger sister and parents' adopted son. Noah couldn't help but admit he was feeling a little jealous of their portrayed close relationship on social media.
