My friends and I are looking around the cafeteria for a place to eat when we hear a loud screeching, P'Bright. "Hey, Nongs, you can sit here. We are done eating." Surprisingly, M responded, "I see. are you done eating? Thank you Very much." Bright smiles as turns to his friends, "hurry up and eat!, you too" I see that he is looking at P'Arthit.

"I.. I have something that I want to buy and... if you are free, can you come with me?" He is avoiding my eyes as he speaks, and I couldn't hold back my smile anymore. I'm just so overjoyed that he overcame his own awkwardness to ask me out in public and not over text. "Of course." We are both sharing smiles at one another, "I'll see you at 11 am on Saturday, then." Before my rational brain could stop me I blurted out, "is this... considered a date?" I step closer to him.
