I Like You

"That was fun," Kai said as they arrived at the housing facility after their outdoor gym training. 

Zeren groaned as he plopped onto the floor. 

"Fun? That wasn't fun at all! I feel like my legs are on fire," he complained. 

Lina crossed her arms in front of her chest. "Is that so?" she asked in a menacing tone.

"Wait, no," Zeren exclaimed, acting as if he wasn't tired at all. "I'm just—hot, that's all. That's why I'm always on fire," he said, clicking his tongue and pointing his fingers at Lina while smoldering. 

Lina shook her head. "It's alright," she said, patting his back and suddenly acting kind. "I'm just doing what I think is best for you, guys. However, tell me when it gets too tough, okay?" she said in a soft tone, surprising the members. 

Zeren felt his heart skip a beat. 

Maybe...

Maybe he had a chance after all. 

"Umm, Lina," he said just as Lina walked to the kitchen.
