Knowing Asher

Chapter|35|

Thank you guys for the support, KA has passed 500 reads.
I really appreciate you all.

I sipped my Pepsi staring around McDonald. 

After shopping, we decided to crash here. I didn't buy anything because I had the perfect outfit for the party in my wardrobe.

We just exchanged Christmas presents. Everyone was satisfied with what they got. A phone buzzed, and I checked mine. It was Angela's. "Okay, guys, it turns out people from school are hanging out at skating rink. We should head there," she announced, and I scoffed.

Can't we head home?

"I can't skate, so you can just drop me home," I said and popped fries in my mouth.

"Asher is going to be there," she whispered to me, and I smiled, remembering our last meeting.

"I will go, but someone has got to volunteer to teach," I said, and they raised an eyebrow. I will, too if someone said no, then suddenly says yes.

"I will teach you," Amanda said, and I smiled thankfully at her.

Amanda offered to pay this time.

Get rich friends ASAP! They are the best.

So you are just using them for their money?

You know I am joking. I love them for who they are, not for their money.

It better be because I will be disappointed if that is the main reason for hanging out with them.

My sub is finally having sense.

I always had.

We headed out to the car park. Angela and Rob rode together. Mike and Lily. He escorted Lily for shopping. Rose, Amanda, and I drove together. We have been sidetracked for being single.
We got to the skating rink and headed inside. I just followed my friends' lead since I didn't know what to do.

We went to the stalls to get our skates. I walked up to the booth to look for my shoe size. Coincidentally, Asher just came in after me.

Asher was wearing a Nike sweatshirt and dark jeans and some Nike sneakers. His necklace hanging out and his hair in its usual messy state. I moved away from my friends so that he would be able to see me. I couldn't just walk up to him.

He spotted me and smiled at him. He walked towards me, and his friends followed behind. "Hey," he greeted with a smile.

"Hi," I replied, and his friends just stared.

"Daniel, Mathew, meet Stephanie," he introduced, and I said a little 'hi' to both of them.

"I could have done the introduction myself," Daniel said with a glare . "I have heard about you. How do you cope with this idiotic_" Asher flipped him off.

"Don't mind them. You are really pretty, why don't we go out together since we will look good together? " Matthew flirted, and Asher snickered.

"Back off," Asher grumbled, and Matthew smirked. He whispered something to Asher, and he flipped him.

He dragged me away from his friends and pulled me to a corner. "Don't mind those two dummies,"

"They are actually funny. I thought they wouldn't like me," I said, fiddling with my fingers, and he arched an eyebrow.

"Why wouldn't they? You are a sweet person and likeable," he said softly after tilting my chin up to look at me.

He cleared his throat and pinched the bridge of his nose. He muttered things under his breath, but I was unable to hear.
