Chapter 8: watch other girls snatch him
'This is Claire, save my number so you don't hit the decline button when I call. Thanks for the drive by the way. Good night. Don't text back, I'm going to sleep! I like you!'-- Claire
"She asks my number so we can text each other..."
She likes to end the conversation with her having the last word, literally and figuratively, isn't she?
Tomorrow morning, Martin and Anthony were jamming in the corridor when Claire and Taylor walked past them.
Claire was wearing red heart-shaped sunglasses and a white sun hat. She was walking behind Taylor who was wearing her well-ironed uniform with her Presidential badge on the chest area.
"Dude, did Claire just ignore your greetings?--Hahaha!-- pretty savage, as always, huh?"
Martin ignores Anthony and walks to his seat.
Do guys ever wonder what's going on inside the girls' heads? Because that's what he was wondering about after Claire ignored his good morning.
He's not angry or anything, it's just strange for Claire not to say some sassy words in reply to his greeting.
She walks straight to their classroom, she didn't even look at him.
"Dude, you can't just walk away and ignore me because you've got ignored.", Anthony teases and laughs at him.
He looks at his friend nonchalantly.
Why does this guy always make mountains out of molehills?
"I'm not some child who ignores other people because they've got ignored."
That's the last thing he will ever do!
Like who cares if Claire ignored him?
She's probably just on another episode of being moody or something.
"I have other things to think about, and right now, honestly, Claire isn't one of it."
"Bro, to be honest, just talk to her or something. She gave me her number yesterday, you know? We texted last night."
Anthony teasingly wiggles his brows at Martin.
"So what? Why are you wiggling eyebrows, Dude? Stop it because it's creepy when you do it."
She gives him her number?
"You talk over the phone?"
While I only got one text?
So who does she like really?
"We just texted."
"The same thing."
"You wanna know what we talk about?"
"No, not really, that's your privacy."
Meanwhile, Claire and Taylor were in their classroom sitting across from each other.
"We're going to EE this weekend, right? You have a photoshoot with the 'Queen Clothing' for the new magazine edition."
Taylor informs Claire while the other is lazily resting her head in the table facing the window, arms hanging.
Claire is a model under EE Entertainment, and Taylor is her acting manager temporarily until she finds someone she can trust to manage the work for her.
"Claire?"
"Hmm-- okay."
Claire feels so lazy, so lazy that she'd snap to every person who will disturb or talk to her, Taylor exempted.
