So Close To Being In Love | Completed √

Chapter 11

After senior Caleb left, I entered Ash's room and stated, "He said you two are friends, so why did you speak to him as if you didn't know him?"

"That happened in the past. Leave my room if you came here to ask me about him. He stated that he is after you. What exactly does he mean by that?"

"I said I'm not interested in him but he's not taking it, I don't know what to do with him. I only like Andrew." I said quietly as I sat near him.

"Anyway, he'll attempt a lot of things, so don't fall for him at any cost. He likes a girl and moves on to another when he loses interest in the first. Even if he doesn't, inform me and I'll take care of it myself."

"That is what Andrew told me."

Sh*t!

"Wait, what did you say, Andrew? When did you first start talking to him? Did you tell him you loved him? Please tell me the entire tale."

"Wait, wait, wait. Don't draw any judgments on your own. First of all, Andrew is my crush, not more than that. Secondly, Andrew was in the same music club that I am. So we talked for a while. Just a little."

He smiled at me and asked, "Was it a coincidence or..."

"I joined on purpose."

"Well, that explains the guitar. So, despite your dislike of music, you enrolled in the class for him."

When I attempted to leave, he asked, "Where are you going?"

"That concludes the story."

"Don't forget to update me, little sister," he remarked as I was leaving.

I sighed and wondered why he knew everything about me.

At university,

While Hannah and I were headed to the cafeteria, she commented, "I still remember what you said when I asked you to join. I thought you'd attend one or two classes and bunk others but you consistently attend every class. Did you develop a taste for music?"

"Yes. I began to enjoy it. It's quite appealing to me."

"What's appealing to you?" Caleb, the senior, arrives out of nowhere.

Hannah, "I believe I will have to go to the cafeteria by myself. See you later, Leah."

"Leah?" says senior Caleb.

"She calls me that when she wants to tease me."

"That's adorable, Leah."

"However, I don't like it."

"Oh, okay. Will you be visiting the cafeteria?"

I agreed by nodding.

"Could I tag you?"

"Your wish."

While we were on the way to the cafeteria, I asked senior Caleb, "Everyone says you're a flirt, and my brother said the same thing the day before when you visited the house. Is it true?"

"I don't want to lie. Yes, I used to be but it was before I saw you."

"What?" I asked.

"I know you'll laugh, but it's true. I liked you as soon as I saw you. Perhaps it's love at first sight. Who knows?"

While he was speaking, I laughed.

"What made you laugh so hard?"

"When everyone claimed you're a flirt, I imagined you'd be a sweet talker. But I don't notice any indications of a flirty man. If you're a flirt, as they say, you must be terrible at it. Is this the reason why your girlfriends left you?
But you're creating the impression that you're losing interest in them."
