Wrapped in Chigo's arms, Sylvia didn't see what car had passed by them, but she thought the model was familiar.
As she couldn't see anything in his arms, Sylvia struggled to break free for long before he finally released her.
Flushed and upset, she scolded, "You don't have to be so eager, you know?"
He laughed, "Why not? Are you feeling shy?"
She was speechless; she wasn't bashful, but that she felt as if he was toying with her.
It didn't feel good to be taken advantage of.
Sylvia looked, no, glared at Chigo with resentment, wanting nothing more than to give him a good beating.
However, Chigo didn't mind her glare, smiling instead.
"You look mad."
"Oh, am I? You disrespected me, Chigo. Have you never heard of gender sensitization? How can you simply hug me?" She meant they should keep a distance.
"You're right." He nodded and continued, "That's a valid point."
Hearing that, she felt relieved knowing he still could be reasoned with.
However, just as she wanted to say more, he continued, "But I have said the same things to you before, but you never listened no matter how many times I've reminded you, always eager."
Sylvia's jaw dropped as she looked at Chigo, floored.
She was just a child back then. He was right, she was indeed passionate toward him, but she didn't mean anything, let alone understand that men and women shouldn't be this close.
How could he expect a child to understand such things? And how could he use this to refute her?
Flushed from frustration, Sylvia didn't know how to answer him.
Surprised she didn't refute, Chigo smiled, in a great mood.
However, it made Sylvia feel even more defeated.
Her head hung low, and her shoulders drooped, looking lifeless.
But she knew she had to make things clear once and for all.
"Chigo, I have to go back." Slyvia's gaze was determined and slightly distant as she looked up at him.
Chigo asked, his brows slightly furrowed. "Why are you in such a hurry to go back? Or do you just want to escape from me?"
Although it was true she wanted to get away from him, she did not answer.
"Do you think running away will solve everything?" He looked at her, still smiling. It seemed that he didn't intend to let her go just like this.
"I have to do my revision. My mom will be worried when she doesn't see me."
"She won't. Mr. Carter knows I'm with you, so he would tell her for sure. I think I still have quite some credibility." he said.
Resigned, she really was no match for him. "Chigo, I'm still a high school student; studying is my top priority now."
"Yes, you said that. Didn't you hear me too? You should be glad you still are one, or I wouldn't still keep the distance." he reminded her.
"What on earth do you want?" Sylvia's face sank, and her tone became cold.
Since she could not escape, she would face him directly.
She had never feared confrontations.
"Very well." Chigo nodded. "I should make you mine as early as possible."
"What do you mean?" She frowned.
"Making you my girlfriend, of course," he replied.
Chigo's words rendered her floored. Although she knew this was going to happen, she was still shocked to hear it from him.
Had he no shame?
She could finally understand Kendrix's hesitation; she was underage for only sixteen.
Meanwhile, her first thoughts were that she was still underage at Chigo's words; how could he be so shameless to ask a minor out?
