The Girl with the Love App

Part 2 - Final group member

"Hey, do you have a group for the presentation?"

"No"

"My name is Jennifer, would you like to join our group; we have three members?"

"Sure, I will join and I'm Samuel."

And there we have a full group, Melody, Charlie, Samuel, and me. We all introduced ourselves to one another, and we chose Melody to pick a random topic from the lecturer's desk. We were all about the same age and Australian born, except Samuel.

"Hi, my name is Samuel, 22 years old and was born in Malaysia."

We were all happy to have an international member, we thought this could add a bonus to our group presentation. We all exchanged contacts, made a group chat, and named it Fours Beavers.

Our topic for discussion with the class was about increasing penetration and market shares of the clothing brand ZARA, and how they could improve on their mental availability. It was one of the easier topics out of the other topics that others had chosen, so we were sure to have a good grade.

Charlie thought it would be nice to have the group photo, so we grouped our heads together and snapped a picture of all four of us. While everyone was distracted with the photo taken, I sneaked in a picture of Samuel onto the Love App. I wanted to see how it worked. I wasn't particularly interested in Samuel, but I also wanted to get to know him better.

Scan complete, here's what to know about your potential love interest:

· Samuel, 22 years of age

· Malaysian international student, moved to Australia during his high school years

· Has a two-year-old dachshund dog

· Has two older sisters

· Plays basketball and table tennis

I was astonished, maybe this app really does work. But I had to make sure, so I popped a random question to the group; what sports do we enjoy playing. It was a good question, I think because it got everyone to start chattering.

I said that I enjoyed playing badminton and volleyball, Melody likes to play netball however, she's not very good at it, Charlie is in a water polo state club player.

Samuel said he likes to play basketball and table tennis. It's been three years since he had last played table tennis, because none of his friends had enough free time to go out and play as back then in high school. He said he probably lost his ability to play really well since it's been a few years. Then laughed.

A few minutes goes by, and it was the end of class, and I had a two-hour break until my next class. This was enough evidence for me to prove to Melody that this Love App that I had downloaded this morning was real.

Melody and I walked to cafeteria and ordered vermicelli noodles with spring rolls. It was our go to lunch option, it didn't taste dry or bland, it taste like it should be, good.

We found a table near to the doors, we sat down and ate our lunch, I kept thinking about it, I didn't know how to bringing it up.

"Hey, I have something to tell you..."

"What?"

"This morning I found this notification about this app helping me find my myself a boyfriend, so I downloaded it."

"Yeah?" Melody was intrigued.

"Well, it said to take a picture of a guy or girl, and it would help guide me choose the right decision for them to like me. So I took a picture of Samuel as tester."

"OMG DO YOU LIKE SAM-"

I quickly covered her mouth, and shushed her. Always jumping into the wrong conclusions.

"Omg no, I don't like every guy I lay my eyes on. So back to the topic, the app scanned his face and it told a few dot points about him, and it's true, it works. Because the app had told me he liked playing basketball and table tennis, that's why I asked the group to really see if the app was being legitimate."

"Oh yeah, that's cool."

She was surprised but not weirded out which was good enough for me.

She said instead of her being the failed wingman all the time, this app would be a better wingman than her and could potentially find me a boyfriend.
