The Girl With Glasses

TGWG 24

"Hiroki has a fever!" I told Laurens after I ended my phone call with my brother, I'm starting to panic.

We're now at the book cafe near our school, studying, when my brother gave me a call. I was about to pack up when Laurens stopped me.

"You need to study longer, we'll be graduating soon you can't have your grades drop," I was about to protest but he already left.

Darn I owe him one. I then started reading again and did further research. I then stood up when I felt a bit famished. I was about to order some light snacks when I bumped into someone.

"I'm sorry," we both said in unison before smiling at each other, she looks like she's my age.

I then went pass her and ordered some fries and a bag of chips, I also ordered a large Iced Tea. Carrying my tray, where my food is, back to my place I saw the girl I bumped into earlier still standing and looking for a place to sit. I to looked around and saw that the place was full.

"Why don't you seat with me? My boyfriend just left," I offered and she then smiled at me.

"Thanks, you're very kind," she has a sweet voice and is very formal, must be a lady of a rich family or something.

"Don't mention it, here sorry it's a little messy," I said as I clean up a bit, both Laurens and I are not organized people.

"It's okay, my kids are the same," I was then surprised by her statement.

"Oh wow. You have kids? I thought we were the same age," well you can't blame me, she looks young despite the maturity of her body.

"I married and had kids early, I'm 20 by the way," she said which made me nod.

"Same, I'm also 20. Which university are you from?" I asked her.

"Oh I'm here for a vacation as well as a business trip. After I married and had kids I didn't really go back to university since I was home schooled ever since. Besides I've already known about how to run a company and the like, my husband is also there to help me along the way," I can see the happiness there is in her eyes.

"That's great anyway I'll finish this quickly and then we'll talk because if I don't finish this my milk addict giraffe of a boyfriend will surely give me extra homework. I mean what is he? My tutor back in high school?" she then laughed at my statement, even her laugh is elegant and formal.

"You two seems pretty sweet," she said.

"And so are you and your husband," I said.

"Oh dear I lost track of time, here's my no. Call me okay?" She handed me a piece of paper where a no. was written hurriedly.

I pocketed it and also got my things stuffed in my bag before leaving the cafe. I still need to check on Hiroki. I contacted Kero and then we drove home, it was already sunset when I arrived home.

"Sorry I took longer than expected, I got into this chat with...hold up! AHH! I totally forgot to ask her name!" I said which made Laurens laugh.

"Classic Rikka," I then pouted.

"At least I got her number and she sure is a great blend of hot and cute. Anyway how's Hiroki?" I asked Laurens.

"He's fine, the fever isn't that bad. He just needs to take some meds and some rest then he'll be back to the energetic cute human being he is," Laurens said which made me sigh in relief.

I then added the phone number of the girl I met earlier and just named it "Cafe Friend". Yeah I'm horrible at nicknames and names and I also have a hard time remembering them.
