She sat down and food appear in front of her. "Wow spaghetti again I see..." Kevin said looking at Umji's food. "Shut up, this is my favourite" Umji said swirling the spaghetti. Before she can put it inside her mouth someone beat her to it and it was Tom.

"Wow that's delicious....baby" He said which made everyone stop talking. "What never see 'Tom' flirt before?" He said looking at both of them. They looked down and continue eating.

Umji put it in front of his mouth but Tom didn't want to open. "Open sesameeee" Umji said jokingly. Tom open his mouth and bite the meatball.

"Nice?" Umji asked and he nodded. Umji bring her face closer to his right ear. "Is this the way that you're showing love to me?" She asked. She lean back but still inches a part from his face. He nodded and smirk.

"Well then keep going I want to see how this goes" She whispered to him and continue feeding him while he is reading some books. While their friends was looking at them weirdly, shaking their head and continue eating.

When they finish eating, Umji was about to stand up and leave but Tom hold her sleeve stopping her from moving. "Yes?" Umji asked him. He looked at her eyes and shaked his head.

"It's okay nothing" Umji looked at him and nodded slowly. "Okay bye..." Umji said then ran to her friends.
