Caroline couldn't believe her ears and looked at him dumbfounded.

"Do you need water?"

But covering her mouth, she blurted, "No… Hic… I am good. Hic…"

'Gosh, it is so embarrassing!' She rushed towards a juice corner and grabbed a bottle of water. Taking a big gulp from the bottle, she lightly patted her chest in an attempt to suppress her hiccups.

"Did my words offend you in any way?" He asked, looking at her. A bit concerned, a bit guilty too.

"No… No… I loved it… I mean, no… I was not offended." She found it hard to even utter coherent sentences in front of him. 'What the hell is wrong with you, Caroline?' She pondered in her head and faked a smile in front of him.

"Shall we go now?" Closing the lid of the bottle, she looked at him.
