Maria: (Nervously) Please... can I be your... friend?

Christian: (Surprised) I... well...

???#1: There you are, Maria!

???#2: We've been looking for you everywhere!

You turned around to see two girls approaching Maria. One has charcoal-gray eyes and darkish green hair secured by a headband of a lighter shade of green, while the other one has black hair and matching beady eyes.

Maria: (Surprised) Carmen? Katya? What are you guys doing here?

Carmen: (Sternly) Idiot, don't just go and disappear like that! You had us both worried for you!

Katya: She's right. Don't do that again, okay?

Maria: (Guilty) But I just want to meet him...

Katya: (Confused) Meet him? You mean-

The two girls looked at you with a surprised expression.

Carmen: Hey, aren't you the new kid here?

Christian: In the flesh.

Katya: So you're Christian, huh? You seemed average.

Christian: Okay?

Carmen: So what did you do to make our girl here head over heels for you?

Maria: (Embarrassed) Carmen!

Christian: She asked me if she wanted to be my friend.

Katya: (Surprised) She did?

Carmen: Really now?

Maria: (Flustered) I... just wanted to know him better... that's all...

Christian: And I say yes, you can be my friend.

Maria: (Shocked) Wait... you... you're okay with that?

Christian: Sure, I'm open for more people. Especially to ones like you.

Maria: (Flustered) I... thank you, Chris... you're very nice...

Carmen: Wow, you've already made her a flustered mess. Can't say I'm surprised though since she's like that around other boys-

Christian: And I'm okay being friends with your two friends here.

The three girls just looked at you with bewilderment.

Katya: Wait... what?

Carmen: You're kidding... right?

Christian: Nope. I'm being real.

Carmen: I... we'll think about it.

Maria: But-

Carmen: (Sternly) I said we'll think about it. End of discussion. Now let's head back to our dorm.

Maria: (Saddened) Okay...

The two girls just in their way while Katya looks at you with sympathy.
