The Days of Normalcy With A Pinch Of Spice

For the next few days nothing remarkable or anything of importance occured . I attended my classes , hung out with Adrian and Claus and did pretty normal stuff . I actually didn't get a proper chance to meet Darren since he is busy with his girlfriend now . I actually wanted to ask him one thing which was bugging me from the he sent the text that he is going out with Karen .

He had told me that he likes Karen but he didn't want to hurt Mary so I had assumed that he would be taking this slow and steady and convince Mary along the way with my help ( from the sidelines of course) , but to my dismay he is already going out with Karen and he is ready to reveal it to Mary in a blunt and direct way . Don't you think it's somewhat suspicious?( I might be overthinking things here.. ).

Since that night I haven't been contacted by Mary either which means that Darren has not made his move yet

( Thanks Darren for giving me a breather).

But even so this situation is beyond me . I have to now mediate between Mary and Darren which is hard for an inexperienced person like me ( My head hurts ,ahhh....) . The next is Darren's suspicious behaviour ( I deem it suspicious , don't know for sure, Lame isn't it). I really need to talk with him and ask him about this.

Anyway tomorrow is Sunday so I will be free , I will have my personal time tomorrow . I really wanted to relax in my home and do nothing . I wanted to spend some time on myself , reading books or just listening to music but these unexpected events in my life just didn't give me that opportunity. So tomorrow is my only day when I can be myself.

*Ring* * Ring

I heard my phone ringing so I take it up and receive the call .

" Hey Kelvin , you're free tomorrow right? I know you will be so let's meet up ".

" Don't go assuming things about other people Dammit , I'm not free tomorrow ". So here goes my peaceful sunday. The caller was Adrian , he is the type of guy who would never take a NO ( He'll chase me till the ends of earth for a YES ) .

" You liar, even if you have something to do It'll be in your home right? so keep that work for the next week and meet us up. we will change your boring mundane life to something exciting " .( Oi Oi I'm already having the hell of my life here , could you go bother someone else for once ). Rather than wasting my energy it's better if I back down and give a yes , but I'll need to know the thing that makes life exciting in a day.

" So what's the plan ? where are we meeting up "

" Just meet us near our college around 10 AM , I will be waiting with Claus , from there It's a secret you know *giggle*".

" Your sound so suspicious , well anyway what about Darren ? Are you not inviting him "?

" You nitwit , why would I invite him when he is busy with his girlfriend , even I have some delicacy ".

" Whatever , so yeah I'll hang up now , see you tomorrow ". I cut the call even before he could respond . I sigh and take out my clothes for tomorrow to press it . After I'm done with my clothes I take out a novel from my bookshelf which I had been wanting to complete for a long time . I'll probably sleep while reading it but I don't mind .

The next morning I get ready to go out with Adrian and Claus . I don't what they have planned so I'm at a loss here . They didn't give me a hint to guess . ( ahhh .. I'll be exhausted today )

I leave my home at 9.30 AM , nothing wrong in being a little early . I'm wearing a white sweat shirt , a pair of black jeans and a pair of white sneakers. just an outdoor casual .

I see two figures already waiting , of course they are Adrian and Claus . Adrian is guy with auburn colored hair , brownish eyes which strangely accents his hair color . He is of average height and has a good build which comes as natural when you are into sports . Claus on the other hand looks like a diligent top rank student with black hair and rectangular spectacles which gives him the ' honor student ' vibes.

" Yo " . I call out to them .

" Hey man, let's get going , It wouldn't be good to keep them waiting ".

" Wait up ... where are we going and who exactly is waiting for us? Claus you better tell me something ".

" Well you see Kelvin , we are actually going to meet up with three girls from different college. Actually this dumbass is having a crush on one of the girls and he is asking us to accompany him . Well it was a suggestion by the girl , so you get the idea don't you?"

" Damn you Adrian , you know how I'm with strangers and still you've got the nerve to invite me huh.... Do you want to make a fool out of me"?

" Well that's no problem at all , you just stay silent the whole time while I score some points with my crush , simple isn't it " . I really want to punch this guy and his smug face he is making right now . Today will be the most exhausting day of my life. * sigh*

" So this event was supposed to bring excitement in my life ? Are you kidding me , this will make me exhausted and Adrian remember this , I'll make you pay for it "

" Ohh how scary , well anyway let's get going ".

We made our way to our destination . We were supposed to meet at the subway station .

when we arrived I spotted three girls , probably they are the ones . ( Aww I'm definitely a misfit here ) .

We just greet them, introduce ourselves ( I really did a short introduction) and it seems that our plan was to go to a restaurant . So we walk there while Adrian is talking lively with the girl he likes. Her name is Ria , she was a petite girl and pretty energetic , just like Adrian here . She had black hair tied to a pony tail and black eyes which made her looks good ( I should really stop this ... when my own looks aren't that great) . The other two were Anna and Tia . Anna was bit shorter than others , she had blonde hair curled into ringlets and blue eyes , Tia was a brown haired girl , who looked pretty shy but was good looking. ( I really don't know what makes a person look good or bad , I believe it's all in their personality and behaviour so yeah this is just an assessment).

We all were at the restaurant for at least 3 hours . We all ordered light snacks and drinks . Adrian and Ria really hit it off , they were chatting and immersing themselves in their own world. Claus was talking with the shy Tia and occasionally with Anna, keeping the light mood going. As for me I talked here and there gave curt and simple answers and was silent most of the time. It was pretty awkward you know ( And I'm nervous as hell here , I'm holding on only because of Claus , Claus are you a GOD by chance?).

The rest of time passed by and we all exchanged contacts for the sake of good will . It's not anything of significance and I doubt anyone except Ria and Adrian will be in touch . It was already afternoon so we all disbanded after a light meal.

I got home and I dived into my bed headfirst . Today's events were pretty nerve wracking to be honest and I'm happy that I came out unscathed .

Bzzz* Bzzz*

It was a text alert so I opened my phone to check it.

" Thanks for today , let's meet again , take care ". Was the text and the text was from.... ANNA.

WHAT THE...
