In highschool, she had 4 boyfriends, and after graduation they broke up on mutual terms due to their location of university. It was hard for her each time she broke up with someone. Fortunately, the girls are really solid and help her go through each break up. And she thought of asking Francis advice about being a good girlfriend in the boy's point of view.

And she asked this just in time for the summer break to roll on. Just next week after their meeting in the cafe, they both went shopping. She went to Uniqlo in the downtown mall, and choose what to wear for Francis in the university. All budget are prepared of course.

She thought Francis will look good in a sweater and since he is a city boy, he must be stylish.

"Hmm France, you have to loose your polo shirt. Please."
"What? But I-"
"No, no, no, listen to me. Girls like guys who are stylish. And in this city, sweaters and maybe a turtle neck, will look good. Trust me."
"Okay, I'll try."

"Wow France, you look cool. My heart almost skipped a beat there, haha."
"Should I try another one?"
"Yeah yeah."
"I'd like the maroon one. I love maroon."

And then Francis brought the maroon sweater and tries it, and it fits just perfect. After buying about 3 sweaters and 2 turtle necks, it's time for them to have dinner.

They eat in an Pizzeria, which is located about 1 km walking distance from the mall. They walk together, and the shimmering purple district light shone to their highlights.

"So, do you want to get a girlfriend in Uni, France?"
"I-I honestly don't know about that."
"Don't worry! You are the cold and cool type! Girls will fall all over you! Don't worry!"
"What about you? You wanna get a boyfriend?"
"Hmm, I would like a senior though! It is my dream after all!"
He smiled at her and said, "yeah I hope it does come true. Our dreams."
"Of course it will France."

Just about two months after that, after hearing some actually really good advice from Francis, Maya got herself a boyfriend. Her boyfriend was rich, and he just broke up with his girlfriend not long ago. They both met in the orientation and both are basically the same in personality.

"Yo May!"
"Hey!"
And the couple ran through the university hall to greet each other. Her boyfriend said that he wants to go to the field to practice football. He was a cornerback for the main team.

"May, come to the game next weekend. I need you,"
"Of course! I'll be there!"

The game was splendid, her boyfriend made an interception and a couple tackles, and they both took a picture together. Maya posted it in her Instagram account, when Francis, chilling in his apartment balcony, noticed it. He doesn't know what to do now.

Fast forward for a year, the couple is now broken. They broke up. Apparently the cornerback found another girl, in the new class no less. Maya was shocked to see the story of the said girl in a cafe with him.

And that took Maya to console, again, with Francis. "Hey Francis."
The message sent to his phone.
"I need you. Can I come to your place?"
It was a bit sudden, Maya never went to Francis' apartment before. Well perhaps now as a university student, it is more normal.

"Sure, let me prepare it for you. Do you wanna watch a movie together?"
"Yeah, that will be good. :") "
"What movie do you wanna watch?"
"Hmm The Notebook?"
"Great choice. I love it."
"Hey, you seemed different than before. What happened?"
"Ohh hahahah nothing. I just, wanna be me, is all."
"You found yourself huh? Glad for you France."
"Well when will you came? My apartment is on walking distance from New Tokyo Station. Just call me when you get there."
"Just a minute, let me prepare my things. I'm still in the housing now. You know, I go to the girls and they all were just really mean to me, and it was just"

After about an hour of frustrated talk to Francis in the message, Maya arrived in New Tokyo Station. She called Francis, and about 10 minutes later Francis was in front of her.

"Hey, how are you? Are you fine? You can tell me anything."
"No, I'm not fine."
