Are you talking about me?

"Lian, what are you listening to?" I asked. Well this is not new for me 'cuz Lian is a music lover and she's always like that when she's bored or she's playing a video when she's stress and for her it's very helpful.

"subliminal booster powerful" Lian answered while closing her eyes. "try this. I highly recommended it to you. Very relaxing and you can use it to focus on your studies and so on" She said and take a deep breath

"whoaaa legit?" Avy said. Lian open her eyes and removed her earphone

"don't try this, it will not work for you" Lian teased her then she put back her earphone then she open her book and start to review since our first test semester will start next month

Actually we're here in the garden of our campus. This is our hang out zone when we need to study or do some projects because we find out that we can focus here instead on the library. We inspired in the plants that surround us. The fountain and the blooming flowers.

Avy start to say some gibberish words because she didn't know what she would prioritized. "why I chose STEM?!" she exclaimed

"don't regret anything. Even if we are struggling we're still a grade conscious person so we don't have any choice but to comply all requirements that we needed to pass." Liam said while highlighting the important notes on her book

"yeah whatever" Avy said and continued take down in her own notes. While me? I'm here sitting at the bench holding my iPad and scrolling to my social media accountants. Chill'in like a villains.

After this one I'm going to cry because i realized that I should studying right now but then its look like my hands and my brain has their own life and they just want me to waste my time on social media. Holy fuck I can't even move my hands to grabbed my study materials

"I bet 2000 that Zharina will gonna cry later after realizing that she didn't review anything and will regret everything she does today" Avy said

"uh-huh and says 'I'm not going to graduate' 'I'm not in a deanlist what should I do?!' 'I hate myself for doing some stupid things' but always ended up having a high grades because of her almost perfect scores. What a scam" Lian said and she even copied my voice and what I'm usually saying.

"Yes and later? after we go home. You can see her active status off and right after she's busy reviewing all our subjects and she will go to sleep to dawn.

They're my true bestfriends. They KNOW ME that much!

"arghh can y'all please stop talking? okay okay I'm going to study after 5 minutes. I'm going to stalk someone" I spoke. They looked at me with confused on their faces

"who?" Lian asked. I shrugged, I don't want to tell them yet 'cuz they're going to make it a big deal and they will tease me to tell a story even if I have nothing to tell

"stranger" I simply said

"stranger but you know what the name? you said you will gonna stalk him" Avy said

"wait what? HIM? who says that I'm going to stalk Kajik?" I shouted and they both shock because of what I've said. After two seconds my eyes widened in shock too when I realize what I said earlier

"damn girl"

"my goodness"

"wait lemme explain—" I said but they but they raised their hands in front of me a sign that I should not speak.

"We've been friends since c-childhood and I don't know why some of us are k-keeping some secrets.....w-why Zharina?" Avy said while shaking her voice, acting that she totally hurts. WHAT THE FAWK?!

"and..." It's Lian. She take off her eyes glasses and took her handkerchief "....we promise to each other that we will not keep a secret" she said and wiped the edge of her eyes and pretending that she's crying.

should I go now? they don't seem to be my friends anymore.

"CHAROT!" they both shouted and stand up. They went to each side of me and sat beside of me. "anyways why you're going to stalk, Kajik?" Avy asked. I immadiently cover her mouth using my hands

"lower your voice!" I whispered to her. She gave a peace sign so that I slowly take off my hand to her mouth

"you're interested with him?" I heard the curiosity on Lian's voice. I nods down because I felt my cheeks burned.

"what his social media name?" Avy asked. I faced her my phone screen and her eyes widened and her mouth shape went '0' "you're so fast, how did you know his social media account?" She asked but I just winked at her

She pulled my hair "dont wink at me, how did you know?!" She almost shouted.

"I talked to him last week and i asked his on social media and I have no difficulty because he gave it immediately without hesitation" I proudly said

"Darn girl! how did you do that? does he interested with you?" Avy extremely asked. I gave her a confusing look

"what are you talking about? Kajik? interested to me? are you sick?" I sarcastic asked her.

"why? it's possible!" Lian said. I looked at her and saying ARE-YOU-OKAY? "or maybe...."

"perhaps what?" I raised my eyebrow to her. Lian and Avy looked at each other and they're both smirking like an evil.

"you're the one who interested to Kajik—"

"are you talking about me?" Avy cut her words when we heard Kajik voice at our back. We all froze like we did a crime and someone caught us. I swallowed because I was nervous that he might have heard our whole conversation

I don't know what to do and then suddenly Avy pinched my legs that's why I screamed "ouch!" I stand up and I saw Kajik looking at me with no emotions. He's wearing a complete uniform while holding his bag strap on his left shoulder. My lips parted because he's so perfect with a simple outfit

I felt like my cheeks are burning again so I inverted my eyes to him because Im embarrassed on the thought that he heard us.

"hmmm....W-why are you here?" I asked. I can't look at him straight!

"do you own it?" He coldly asked. I looked at him with my jaw dropped. CALM DOWN ZHARINA, CALM DOWN.

I bit my lower lip to stop myself to shout at him and throw him some bad words. "have you been there a while ago? I asked.

"kinda" He simply said. I nodded and grabbed my bag.

"we need to go" I said then Avy and Lian moved quickly and arrange their things. I walked first and before I Passed Kajik. I shock when he held my wrist

"what the—"

"I'm curious who's interested with me" He cut me off. My eyes widened in shock and my lips parted. I looked at Avy and Lian to help me what I should answer but they looking at me too then they shales their heads.

fuck!

"who....is...interested...to...me?" Kajik asked again in a slow motion. His voice is husky and it turns me on! WAIT WHAT?!!! ME TURNING ON?! I didn't say that, I swear

"Zharina!" Avy shouted. I looked at her with wide eyes even Lian looked at her shooked. Kajik raised his brows like saying that Avy needs to repeat what she said

Avy looked at me so I mouthed 'fuck you!' to her but she gave me an awkward smile. "Zharina?" Kajik asked.

"I mean....Zharina fell her ballpen" she says and pointed at my feet. I looked down and I really saw my ballpen there so I bend my knee to pick up.so Kajik also let go of my wrist

When I grabbed the ballpen, Lian suddenly pulled me upright "we are leaving, bye" Lian said and waved her hand.

We were about to leave when we met Kajik's. friend who was with him at the mall before. "oh hi!" He greeted us

"can you please get out of our sight?" Avy churlish said to the guy.

"hey, clam down woman" The guy smiled at her like he's liking the attitude of Avy "I'm Razkiel, how about you?"

"Avy. Zharina and Lian" Avy introduced us. Razkiel smiled to us and offered his hand. Lian is the first who shaked his hand then me and lastly Avy as if still compelled.

"oh come on, Avyanna" He said

"how did you know my name?" Avy raised her eyebrow

"you introduce—"

"I said Avy only. How did you know my real name?"

"secret" Razkiel winked at her and then later on he turned his gaze to me. "oh hello lady, you're Zharina, right? His smiles get wider so I smiled back

"yes I am. Nice to meet you Razkiel" I politely greeted him. Handsome. Razkiel went beside me and was about to put his arm on my shoulder but I didn't feel it so I liked at my right side and I saw Kajik holding Raz arm he also looking at him

"o-oh easy bro" Razkiel smirked

Kajik looked at me "I thought you were leaving?" He spoke so I cleared my throat and nodded

"k." I answered and we left at the garden
