CHAPTER 46 Argument

  Calista

  Sitting with Evangeline, Mei, Raven, and Bella on the university bench, our conversation revolved around the upcoming ball. Everyone was buzzing with excitement, discussing their date plans and outfit choices for the evening.

  "So, Calista, what are you wearing, and who's your date?" Mei's eyes gleamed with curiosity, drawing everyone's attention to me.

  I hesitated, unsure of how to respond. A nervous fluttering gripped my chest as I weighed my words carefully. "Um, I... haven't quite decided yet," I finally admitted, trying to keep my tone light.

  Evangeline smirked mischievously. "Oh, she's being secretive," she teased, winking at me playfully. Her playful jab only intensified my anxiety. I feared that revealing my date might cause tension or hurt feelings among our friends, especially if they discovered who it was and had feelings for them- but I doubt they're interested in them though.
