AJ's Point of View

Tsk. “Why am I here, exactly?” I asked them with a grim face.

John laughed. “It’s Jazz’s birthday party. More people, more fun.”  Then he gave me a glass of light beer.

“You’re all friends with Mavis, right? Don’t tell me you set me up to hook up with her?” I coldly asked all the guys sitting on a circle around me. In the middle is a table with food, beers, and drinks.

“So, you knew she likes you after all. That’s not cool, man.” Kian said after a sip of his own beer.

“Yeah, why don’t you talk to her?” Jake turned to me.

I searched for her through the crowd. Then I saw her with Jazz, chatting, while Jazz is holding something which seems like Mavis’ gift for her.

I looked back at the guys. They’re all close with Mavis. And my gaze locked on Allen. Most especially him. He was sitting and drinking, too. But he is just staring at the ground. Just listening to our conversation.

“I’m not into girls who are after happy endings with her dreamed prince.” I looked at them.

“She may be just simple, quiet and kind, a bit boring also, but she’s sweet and caring. We all know. She’s always there to make someone happy when he or she is down. She was always there for us. What I’m saying is, I think she deserves to have something she wants in return.” John explained to me.

“Dude, she can’t have as she please.” I said. Argh. This conversation isn’t going anywhere.

I looked back on where she was sitting with Jazz, but they weren’t there anymore. So, I searched through the crowd again. Then I saw her sipping beer on a cup, eventually sticking her tongue out with a bitterly look. She said something like “I do not like this”, and gave the cup to Jazz. Jazz was just laughing at her and took the cup.

I looked away from them, and started to have a staring contest with the ground. Then I gulped down my beer.

Mavis' Point of View

“So, we’re now here to discuss our next traditional event here in this university.” One of our professors said in front of the whole class. “Each section will think of their own booth to open at the day of the event: the Foundation Day.”

My classmates cheered in joy. The said event lasts for a week. Which means, no classes.

“Settle down, people. So, start thinking now. Be it snack booth; beverage booth; singing booth; et cetera. I’ll leave you all to decide.” Then the professor left.

I’m getting an idea..

“How about a maid café booth?!” Kian proposed.

“You idiot!” John appeared and spanked Kian on his nape. “What’s a maid café?”

“It’s like a restaurant where waitresses are dressed as cute maids and serve the customers as their masters. Nihon way. We can use the whole room.” Kian explained while holding his abused nape. Too much manga did this to him.

Me and Allen, which is sitting beside me, fell silent. Then burst out laughing. Our class’ boys will wear maid costumes? That will be hilarious!

Maybe Allen and I both have the same thing In mind.

 “Be serious guys!” Jazz stood in front. “I was thinking of a love radio booth. Where there’s a DJ, and people will request songs and greet their friends, et cetera.” She proposed.

“That was my idea, too!” I joined their discussion. Whispers can be heard, it seems like they’re agreeing.

“That sounds interesting.” Jake said while holding his chin. The other guys nod with him.

“So, it’s settled! Love Radio Booth, then!” John stood on the table. “So, we need to assign people on props, speakers, music..” I didn’t listen to what he’s babbling about anymore.

I smiled to myself. This will be so fun. I wonder who will be the DJ?

“Hey, lil’ sis!” Jazz sat on the other empty side beside me. “You are the DJ.”

There goes my answer..

“What?” I asked her, shocked.

“C’mon. Don’t be such a kill joy. And I know you wanted to be.” She said, smiling, then winked at me. “And also.. I noticed that AJ’s eyes are always glued to you.” She whispered in my ear.

“W-What..?” My face became all hot. I glanced at AJ where he is sitting on a chair, lined to ours. And he IS looking/ But, he doesn’t seem happy nor angry. He is just.. staring at me. I quickly looked back at Jazz.

“To think about it.. I haven’t seen you looking at him for a while now. I wonder what’s up.” She said while grinning so wide it was scaring me.

AJ is here. I didn’t notice.. It’s a miracle, him being here, joining the class’ debate. Normally he’s always gone, minding his own business.

But he is here.
