”Is there something on my face?” he asked.

Hanna cleared her throat and finally spoke up, ”I'm sorry.” she apologized.

Chris scoffed and find her totally different once again. He stared at her with a searching gaze which made her face nearly turning into a ripe tomato, as she has actually think of him as a handsome guy a few moments ago, and now he's staring at her.

”Hanna?” Chris called her name, which made her look away from him before answering to his call.

”Is it really you?” Chris couldn't help but asked.

It was supposed to be a funny situation, but sorrow filled Hanna's heart, because she understood what Chris meant. Her past attitude is being brought up again.

Seeing her expression turning sour, ”It's a gift, take it.” he said.

Hanna asked why he's giving it to her again, and couldn't help but felt her heart skip at his reply, ”you look so beautiful when you're laughing and I wish to always see such expression on you, so take it since it brings such effect.” Chris said.

She found herself slowly took it from him. ”It can also serve as protection from pervert and stalkers that wouldn't want a beauty to be in peace.” he added with a smirk, which made Hanna who has look up at him, blushed harder.

”Is that a compliment?” she asked, trying to be friendly, since he just gave her a gift.

”Whichever make you feel good.” he replied.

”Ouch!” Hanna exclaimed at his reply.

She would have insult him if it were before, but now she's trying to control herself and decided not to get angry at every little things again.

Seeing her pout her lips like she's hurt in a playful manner, instead of arguing, Chris ended up apologizing if his reply sounds harsh.

She replied that she's only kidding and being friendly, which made Chris scoffed. He acknowledged her naivety from her straightforwardness and invite her to come sit with them and enjoy her stay, instead of seating alone.

She didn't protest, because she just need someone to talk to. Someone to discuss something not business related with. And also, she's desperate to make friends.

Getting to where Chris's crew was sitting, they exchanged greetings with her. She sat beside the female among them, which is across Chris, who still couldn't help but studying her.

She greeted them for the second time,  hoping that will make her appear friendly,  while they all look at her in confusion.

”How are you guys? do you want to take anything else? I will pay, let'sbe friends.” she said, her heart racing wildly as she spoke.

There was and awkward silent among them, except the sound of music in the background. Even Chris couldn't help but examine her head areas to confirm if there are no bandages.

To confirm if she didn't hit her head and was perfectly alright. The tomboy girl broke the silent, as she understood she's trying to befriend them.

She patted Hanna's shoulder, and pretend she didn't see that she's feeling embarrassed. Hanna was wondering if she phrase the sentences the wrong way.

”Since it's on you, I'm starting another rounds of drinking. We haven't paid for the ones we've been having since, all bills on you babe.” the girl said.

The three men remained silent. They were all rich and wasn't lacking money, including the girl that was acting like she wanted to leash on Hanna. She came from a rich family and couple with her hacking skill,  she earned a lot.
