248: STUCK IN TRAFFIC

ARIEL’S POV

I couldn’t help but laugh upon hearing Luke’s words: “Okay, okay. There was no way at boy was going to do anything.”

Luke widened his eyes, staring at me. “Is that what you think?”

“No, I know that.”

“Please don’t start now. Let’s just go home.”

“My home, you mean?” He smirked at me.

“What were you thinking about?”

“Why are you so curious, huh?”

“No big deal. I just love seeing you smile like that.

“Why would you think like that?”
