Chapter 4: "Revealing Vulnerabilities"

As Jin and Riza's connection deepened, they found themselves sharing more vulnerable moments in their lives. they begin to reveal their fears, insecurities, and hidden vulnerabilities to each other.

One evening, while working on their project at Jin's house, Riza opened up about her fear of public speaking, a topic she had always kept well-guarded. She admitted to the nervousness that overwhelmed her during class presentations, even though she appeared confident on the outside. Because she might mess up one thing because of her clumsiness, she might fail a presentation she's presenting and be a class outcast.

Jin, in response, shared his childhood struggle with self-doubt and the pressure to always be the funny guy, masking his true intelligence. He's scared that if he reveals it to one of his friends, they might rely on him too much and he would be looked at as a tool.

Their candid confessions brought them even closer. They found solace in knowing that they could be their true selves with each other, free from judgment.

Jin had an idea "What if we practice together or overcome our fears together." Riza was shocked at his proposal but she was happy and decided to agree on it.

As the evening turned into night, they decided to face their fears together. Jin encouraged Riza to practice her public speaking skills, and Riza, in return, inspired Jin to express his intelligence openly.
