"Nevertheless, Sharing is caring, right?" An excited voice was heard by us. "Hi, I'm Melody Ryder, Cascia's friend." Chocolate Brown hair with faint red highlighted strands just like a fiery sunset painted across the mountains. Her eyes, a mesmerizing shade of red, gleam like rubies-deep, rich, and full of warmth, radiating curiosity and excitement. She wore simple but attractive necklace which matched her eyes. "Wow, our school seems to be filled with beautiful ladies" I thought to myself mesmerized by her. Melody extended her hand towards us as we shook it. "Nice to meet you Melody, I'm Kynlee and this is my bestie Elvie" I said as a kind gesture. "Nice to meet you too, i like your earrings by the way, they look really pretty." Melody complimented as I flushed with red colour across my face. "T-thank you, I l-like yours too" I stuttered looking down in awkwardness. Melody looked at me in confusion and chuckled softly. "Here goes the usual shy Kynlee" El said to herself as she sighed. "Kynlee, she's not wearing any earrings" I became stiff as I heard what El said. "O-oh- I am sorry ToT I did not notice it." I apologized being embarrassed of the situation. "Where did the confident Kynlee go now, huh? You were blabbering alot earlier." El teasingly said as I hit her hand softly. We heard the other two girls giggling at us. "Ahem, As i was saying, we would like to share our cake with you, you won't mind, right??" Cascia asked. Me and Elvie both looked at each other, "We definitely won't but its your cake, you paid for it so..." Elvie said being unsure of what to say. "That's quite alright, as i said earlier Sharing is caring besides we would also get to know each other." Melody flashed a bright smile at us who were still denying the offer. "Please don't deny it, take it as a kind gesture of our friendship." Cascia said insisting us. Elvie sighed and we both accept it. "Now that we know each other's name, Kynlee and Elvie can you tell me from which department you both are??" Cascia asked taking a sip of her coffee. "I'm from Science department and El is from Arts." I replied, "What about you both?" "We both are from arts department as well but it looks like Elvie and we both are in different classes" Melody replied. "Yeah...i guess you are right."
The four of us continued our chat and got to know each other.
After bidding our goodbyes to each other we went on our separate paths to home. "Today was great, right El? El?? ELVIE???" I yelled at Elvie as she seemed zoned out. "O-oh?? Yeah...it was" El said as she was still thinking. "Are you okay? You seem pale." I asked in concern. "Yeah, i'm fine, don't worry just tried. Let's hurry and go home." Both of us went home.
"I can't believe i made new friends today!!! Eekkkk!!!" I was excited and started squealing while I laid in my bed. "I should have taken their phone numbers but i guess that will be too straightforward...Let's wait and watch for now"
Little did I know, this was just the start of my new life. A lots of adventure were waiting for me...
