Amelia's p.o.v;

I saw Andrew and his girlfriend as I was leaving the college. I made an effort to get away from them by entering another way, but Andrew saw me and called my name. Damn!

I approached him and gave him a phoney smile as I did so.

"Hi!"

Andrew inquired me, "Hey! I've heard you left the music club. Why did you do it? What happened?"

"I joined the club to study the guitar, but now that I've learnt it better than before, I can't see any reason to continue, therefore I've left the club."

"Senior Jacob also said exactly that to me. Why don't you give joining the club another thought?"

His girlfriend spoke to him in his ears as he was asking me.

Andrew pointed at his girlfriend and stated, "I forgot to introduce you both. She's Cathy. Catherine. My girlfriend."

I answered, "Yeah, I heard that from the club," as I nodded.

I gave her a handshake and introduced myself "Oh, and I'm Amelia. I'm glad to have met you."

She stated, "Greetings to you as well. You appear lovely. I like your dress."

"Thank you, It was a birthday present from my mother last year."

Andrew, "Yes, I did also notice it earlier. You should dress colourfully more often since you look gorgeous when you do."

He added to his girlfriend, who was staring at him, "She wears monochromatic clothing at all times. She appears gorgeous in colour because of this, in my opinion."

Cathy asked me all of a sudden, “Do you have a boyfriend?”

Andrew, "She doesn't." And asked me, "Do you?"

I blinked at him, then slowly shook my head and said, “No.”

Cathy said to Andrew, "Don't pretend like you know her well. Girls are so much better at hiding things than a guy. Maybe she was dating someone in secret." And she winked at me.

"Um, actually, no."

She smiled at me and said, “You should try then.”

My eyes went wide as I looked up at her and asked, “Why?”

"So that I'll have my boyfriend all to myself." And she laughed.

I tried to leave but couldn't since they were talking to me without an end.

Andrew to Cathy, "Have you checked the KY cafe? I heard that their parfait tasted delicious. Wanna try?"

Cathy nodded to him.

I replied, "I'll leave then, bye."

Cathy asked me, "Why don't you join us?"

"It's fine. I don't wanna be a bother to you guys."

"Hey, I was just kidding back then. Did you take it seriously?"

"Nah, I was kidding as well. I have somewhere to be too. So, enjoy the parfait. Inform me after checking out that place. I'll go and try it by myself if I have spare time."

I said my farewell to them and then left the college to go to the bus stop.

Hannah, "You're still here. I assumed you had already left."

"I was speaking with Andrew's girlfriend at the time so I lost my bus."

"Ah, I see. Are you going to the nearby club with me?"
