Newcomer's Welcome Party 2

Mike's perspective:

Today was Melanda's welcome party.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion, she sat very far away from me, and I could only watch her from afar. This made me feel uncomfortable. For some reason, I just felt uncomfortable. Those guys had been looking for her to drink. She drank a lot. Didn't she know she couldn't drink? It was worrying. That guy had been whispering into her ear. It makes me angry.

I couldn't help but think of the graduation party six years ago. I actually held that party specially for Melanda. I was already in my second year of college, so of course I didn't need a graduation party. That night, she happily drank a lot of wine, just like today. There were also a lot of detestable people surrounding her like bees.
