Chapter 3
Cassandra's pov
I sat at the canteen with my friends and spotted Hale and her best friend Noah approaching. Hale's beaming smile caught my eye, and I couldn't deny that she looked cute. But the truth was, I wasn't attracted to her – I'm straight. I only agreed to give her a chance six months ago because my friend Diana suggested we could use Hale to make my long-time crush, Theo, jealous.
I knew it was wrong, but I couldn't resist the allure of the plan. Watching Theo grow jealous brought me a sense of satisfaction, even though guilt gnawed at me from within.
To be honest, if only I'm not straight, I'd go out with her. She's the Ideal girlfriend and a lot of girls likes her but she only have her eyes on me. I never expected her to persist for so long, unwavering in her affection even after six months. I enjoyed her company and felt safe around her. Unfortunately, Theo is the who my heart seeks.
"Hey, beautiful?" "Earth to Cass?" Hale's voice snapped me out of my daydream as she waved her hand in front of me. Taking a good look at her, I noticed her simple yet stylish attire – black boots, black pants, a white t-shirt, and a black leather jacket. She literally loves the shade black. It suited her perfectly. In her hand, she held an apple and a carton of milk, a gesture she made every time she saw me in the canteen. I wasn't surprised – she was always so sweet.
"Ah, sorry, just lost in thought," I said.
"It's okay, everything alright?" she asked, concern evident in her voice.
"Yeah, I'm fine, just had something on my mind. How was class?"
"Uh, well, um..." she scratched her head awkwardly.
"What?" I asked in curiosity.
"Long story short, Hale here didn't pay attention in class because she was too busy daydreaming," Noah interjected, making hale shoot a look that seemed to convey her desire to strangle him on the spot.
"You weren't supposed to say that!" Hale protested.
"You took forever to answer, and I'm hungry. Are you buying me lunch or what?" Noah retorted.
"Fine," Hale conceded.
"Just you wait, I'll make sure you pay for that later," Hale muttered under her breath to Noah, though she said it loud enough for me to hear since we were sitting close by.
"Alright, I'm starving. I want chicken, an orange, and a strawberry milktea," Noah declared.
