Chapter Twenty Four

Ariel gasped and as she turned to face Y. K, the bottle water slid off from her hands. Y. k rushed forward and caught it as it was just about to fall on the floor.

"Here, I got it. Why were you so shocked? One would think that you were doing something bad," Y. K laughed and dropped the bottle water back on the table. 

Ariel smiled back at him nervously. What would she say to him? How would she explain the fact that the bottle water she was holding was not for her but Adrian? If he finds out about what she did to the water, he might stop liking her.

She turned her eye away from him, thinking of what to say , what lie to tell him.

"Well, I came inside to get my book because I wanted to go to the library and I saw Adrian's bottle on the floor. I was surprised because it was on the floor and I was just picking it up when you came in," Ariel lied.
