Chapter 105: You Haven't Told Him Yet?

A couple of days later, Samantha and Hannah were at the Busy Bean Café talking about Daniel's proposals.

"Oh my god, S! That is huge! Please tell me you said yes!", Hannah gushed, her eyes brightened.

"To what? To the marriage or the move in?"

"Both, of course!", Hannah excitedly spoke.

Samantha pursed her lips and answered, "I didn't give him an answer about the marriage yet. With the moving in, I told him that we could take it slow."

"What do you mean, take it slow?", Hannah asked.

"Han… I want to be with him all the time but... moving in? It kinda scared me… I have been living alone by myself since college. How do I even live with someone?"

Hannah ate a small piece of the matcha cake in front of her and talked while she chewed "It's not like you haven't slept in each other's houses from time to time."

"That's different Han, living together isn't as simple as just sleeping on the same bed. We have different routines everyday, good and I'm sure bad habits!", Samantha explained before she took a sip from her warm water.

"You have a point. So what did you tell him?"

"Well... I said that maybe I could stay in his place several times a week or he could go over to mine then we'll just have some of our clothes in each other's places."

"Wouldn't that be too tiring? Why not choose just one house? Yours or his.", her best friend questioned.

Hannah waited for Samantha to answer but she averted her eyes and scratched her nape. Hannah laughed. "HA!! I know why! You can't agree on where to stay, can you? You don't want to stay in his place, and he doesn't want to stay in your place?"

"Sometimes, Han you are too dumb or too smart. But yeah, I can't live in a penthouse! I like my house.", she complained with a pout. "And Sapphire Gardens is quite far from his office, though he doesn't mind the distance, he's more of a city guy."

"Why don't you find a new place that is good for both of you?", Hannah suggested.

"Me 'semi-agreeing' to his proposal is already a huge thing for me. This is still a trial phase, Han. What if 'us' living together now doesn't work? It's best to take it slow."

"I just feel that you obviously love each other, give yourself a break and give in, S! Make a bold move."

Samantha pursed her lips and she blushed really hard, Hannah definitely noticed it. Her sharp best friend senses are always on, "OH MY GOD, Samantha! Don't tell me you haven't told him you love him yet?"

Samantha swallowed and hid her face with her hands. "Shut it, Han."

"S! What is wrong with you? Why are you acting like a teenager? You told me yourself, 'there's no time like the present'."

"I did tell him that I like him." she dramatically groaned and hit her head lightly on the table, she lay on it and playfully whimpered. "But that... It's not easy for me to say those, Han. Even when I just try and think about saying it, I scare myself!"

"I actually can't argue with you on that.", Hannah lay on the table as well, copying Samantha. Two lonely souls spoiling the busy bean cafe's mood.

Not long after, a figure appeared beside the table. At the same time, Hannah and Samantha looked up to the tall man and saw Seo Joon tilting his head as he looked at Hannah and his sister with their sullen expression. "What happened to you girls? You look like you just lost your favorite toys."

Hannah slowly sat up straight while Samantha just stayed in the same position. Grabbing a chair from the side, Seo Joon sat backwards on it. He looked at his sister, "I heard you were sick. Do you feel better?"

Samantha just nodded, her head was still on the table. She was still in deep thoughts about what she and Hannah were talking about. She was indeed too scared to say it, heck she was even scared to admit to herself that she does love Daniel. But why was she so scared? That... she doesn't know why.

Seo Joon reached his hand out and pinched Samantha's cheek, "Get up, Dopey! You're ruining the whole neighborhood's day!"

Samantha slapped her brother's hand away, "Ouch!"

"Why did you call me here anyway?", her brother asked as he stole a piece of cookie from Samantha's plate and munched on it.

"We'll record a short video message.", she answered.

"What for? Who's birthday?"

"It's Mia's. In a few days."

As soon as Seo Joon heard her response, he froze. They haven't talked about the incident since she came back thinking that it was something that they just couldn't talk about easily. Unsure of what to say, he just uttered slowly, "Are you..."

Samantha smiled, "I'm fine, Joon. I'm better."

"Hi, did you wait for a long time?", Becca greeted as she walked towards them.

Hannah who was quiet at the side the entire time was feeling even more conscious, she wished that she could disappear at that moment. It was somehow bearable with just Seo Joon around but not with him and Becca together. That's just something she didn't want to see.

"Oh hey... you're here.", Seo Joon said with a smile before he stood up and kissed her cheek as a greeting.

"Hello Samantha, Hannah, it's nice to see you two again.", she greeted charmingly.

Samathana waved her hand and smiled, so did Hannah.

Just then, two men came up to their table, "Sorry we're late, Han. Traffic was horrible..", Shawn spoke in his baritone voice.
