It has been exactly five weeks and three days when Hannah and Lisa first hang out at the coffee shop. In a span of one month, the both of them grew closer to each other and Hannah no longer hangs out with her old friends, instead she now hangs out with Mark, Dina and Lisa.
The four of them would always eat together during lunch break and on some occasions they would even forget about their next class because they're too caught up on the moment, just laughing and enjoying each others company.
Meanwhile Lisa became closer to Hannah and they would always work on assignments together and on some days they would even review for an upcoming exam together like today.
"Hey Lisa" Hannah called her, lightly tapping her wrist.
They are currently in Buckstars, the coffee shop where Hannah and Lisa became close with each other, they are currently reviewing while drinking Iced coffee, this is their second time here and the whole situation reminds Hannah of when they first came into this cafe. It's exactly the same, they sat on the same table, ordered the same thing and studying the same subject.
Lisa lifted her head that is buried in math books. "Yes?"
"You doing okay?" Hannah asked hoping that she might help Lisa with studies.
"Yeah. I'm taking everything in well so yeah, I'm just memorizing this one formula"
"Oh. Okay, uhm, If you need any help I'm just here" Hannah said smiling at her.
"Thanks" Lisa returned her smile and went back to memorizing some stupid math formula.
Hannah leaned back on her chair, slumping while taking a sip of her Iced coffee. She sighed softly making sure that Lisa doesn't notice this.
Well today is Saturday and they don't have any school classes to attend to, and next week is their exam, So earlier Hannah called Dina and Mark to invite them to study but only said, "Oh I'm sorry I'm busy I have to go somewhere" and they both said the exact same thing. Suspicious. The only one that said "Yes I'm free" is Lisa. She was actually glad to know that they would spend some time together, On her way here she was daydreaming of what would happen, she was imagining the two of them laughing together and spending some time together but that is not what's happening right now.
They barely even talked to each other. Lisa was too emerged in reviewing Mathematics that they haven't had a conversation yet. Hannah want to spend some time with Lisa and she is, it's just that they're not conversing.
"Hey wanna listen to some music?" Hannah asked. Offering Lisa hoping that something might happen, other than reviewing for exams together.
"Oh yeah sure"
Hannah rummaged through her bag looking for earphones, but unfortunately, she couldn't find one. Crap I left it in the dining table. Hannah was too excited to leave the house that she forgot her earphones, and she usually brings it everywhere.
