Ray's POV

We decided to eat at a nearby coffee shop. They sell cakes, tea, beverages, and other variety of sweets as well. All of us got our orders and are having a nice talk, most of our talk is about Emma a.k.a. Antenna girl, simply because she's a newbie. After a while, everyone seems to settle down. I looked at the two.

Don digging in to his Chocolate cake, Gilda taking pictures of her food and uploading it to IG *sighs*
When will Don ever be.. tch. Nvrmnd. Dumbass. I opened my phone and scanned Instagram for a bit.

Yeah, Gilda just uploaded it. Then, I saw Anna's name.
We're a year older than her, and she's really popular among the campus. If you are gonna ask who is she, then lemme give you a little background.

Anna is currently the treasurer of the student's council, almost everyone adores her. I mean, who wouldn't? Damn beauty and brains. She's rich, but not a typical spoiled bratty hoe. She's way soft spoken, very charming too, and.. and..

cute.

Dang. And before I knew it, my finger suddenly moved on its own and clicked on Anna's story.

So, she just finished her school work. I quickly remember that I am with these idiots, and when I lifted my head, I saw Norman grinning at me.

Wait.. Did I smile when I saw Anna's story? I'm such an dumbass. To cover up my shitiness, I scowled at him.

"Whaaat?? Hahahaha" He laughed. I rolled my eyes and scoffed. He's the only one who knows that I have this TINY crush on Anna, and he seems to be enjoying it.

Ha. Karma's way too fast.

I glanced at Emma, and shifted my gaze at him once again. He saw my eye movements, and just by that, he blushed, looking away

'The fvck bro? HAHAHAHA'

I smirked, feeling victorious after making my bestfriend blush just by that thing. Shit got him really bad.
I put my attention back to the group, and Emma, being the way she is, kept blabbering nonstop. Norman was just staring at her,listening to her stories. He didn't talk much, probably because he's shy having Emma around.

Well.. He's my bestfriend for who- knows-how-long. Norman is a smart-ass, a genius, a straight A student without a fail. Say that he's pretty popular with girls because of his excellent leadership and intelligence, but none of them caught his eyes. So..

What makes this woman different?

Hmm.. Let's say that she's pretty too. Kinda. Intelligence? Of course. The test was damn hard and she passed it. She seems kind too, and based from what she's blabbering about her family, dreaming that one day she will help them and support them by any possible means..

Yep. Emma's very passionate about her dreams and full of spirit.

One thing that Norman lack.

I didn't realize that everyone finished their food and chitchats. They got up, picked their bags, and waited for each of us to go out with them.

"So guuuys, Don and I will be going now okaaay? Take careee! See ya tomorrow!" Gilda smiled and waved her hand along with Don, both making their way home.

"Byeeee! Take care of each otheeer!" Orange haired girl waved back, still full of energy.

"Geez Emma, you're so active as heck. School didn't drain you huh"

I said, stretching my hands upward a bit.

"Naaaah. Of course not!" She exclaimed making me roll my eyes.

"Yeah yeah whatever."

Bzzt.

I picked up my phone. A text from Mama.

"Yo guys, mama will pick me up."

Upon hearing that, I saw Norman's body tensed a bit making me smirk a little.

"So Norman, gotta take Antenna girl home safely kay?" I laughed a little, putting my hand on his shoulder.

"Oh shut up Ray. As if I can do something about my hair!"

"Cut it"

"No way."

"Then deal with it, Antenna"

She rolled her eyes, defeated. Way  easy to tease. And before I knew it, Mama's car is in front of us. She went down and smiled at the two.

"H-hala! G-good afternoon Ms.Isabella!"

Emma stuttered, bowing her head a bit at mama.

"Hello Emma, Norman." Mama smiled at the both of them, her eyes closed.

"Good afternoon Mama" Norman greeted.

"E-eeeh?? Mama??" She asked, completely surprised at what Norman called her.

"Ah, haha. Well Emma.. Ray's friends call me Mama because they are usually at our house. They said they see me as a second mother so.. Yeah. That explains it. "

Her mouth formed an 'o' shape, completely understanding the situation. Mama put a hand on her shoulder.

"Heh. You too Emma, you can call me Mama when we're not inside the class. I'd be glad to head that from you too."

Emma smiled back and nodded. Mom gestured me to go inside the car, so I did. Both Norman and Emma waved goodbye. I showed them my middle finger instead. Emma laughed even more. Idiot.

"I thought you won't be home for tonight?" Mama asked, starting the car engine,

"Nah. Just for dinner."

"Alright alright. Get down later after you change clothes. Leslie will be home."

Leslie's my father. He's not always home because of his job. Not gonna lie, I miss him a lot.

As we go home, I decided to send Norman a dm.
