Lilly puts her phone aside and responds: "Wait, he asked you if you ever kissed someone? Honey, let me tell you one thing. If a man is truly interested in you, he would never ask such an inappropriate question. Period." Zoey explains, while Lilly rolls her eyes to the ceiling.
"Girl, she is right, he is only playing with you. Please don't be naive and stop believing all his chatter. Renee explains, massaging her temples.
"A few days and you're already falling for him. You truly are easy to get Lilly." Renee chuckles.
The confused 19-year-old couldn't understand all the judgements Zoey and Renee had towards Pao. In her eyes, he seemed like a friendly guy that just made some jokes here or there.
"What? No! I am not falling for him. Lilly shouts, crossing her arms upsetly. "What about him calling me cute?" She pouts, defending Pao inwardly.
Renee eyes at Zoey and shakes her head in disappointment. "Look, he is an adult and clearly knows how to deal with plenty of women. Trust me, you're just one out of his thousands. What he said to you, he surely said to any other girl that came across him. Don't take it seriously, dummy." Zoey replies with a dull expression.
"She is right, Lilly. At a young age, it is mostly infatuations. After all, how well do you know him in that short span? You probably love the way he talks or smiles. Probably smitten by his beauty. But that is superficial, right?"
Lilly didn't respond to Renee's opinion, only nodding her head.
"Alright, I'm tired, girls. Let's continue tomorrow."
With all being said, Lilly left the room and went unbothered to bed.

The birthday party surely broke any boundaries the teens had towards each other, it brought them together. That when they met each other in the next morning, they couldn't help but to laugh about last night's meeting.
Pao holds Lilly's hand as they stroll along the cross rail roof gardens.
"Oh, look at this baby, she is so cute!" Lilly exclaims full of joy, eyes bright and shiny, observing the little one as she rests in her pastel rose cloths within her mamas hands. "Isn't she?" Lilly pouts, unable to remain quiet.
"She is." Pao responds, taking a few steps forward in attempts to be as close to the brunette so that she could clearly hear what he had to say. "But you know, I think that you are the cuter baby." Pao answered, a smirk showing slowly up, causing Lilly to blush and privily feel flattered. She can't help but to respond with a kind grin.
Within a second she feels her heart racing and the words of her friends departing her mind.
