“Sorry, there were just too many people in the library earlier for my comfort! I just studied in my dormitory!” replied Gerald.
“Oh, I see! Well, from now on, we can go to the library earlier. Whoever comes first can reserve a seat for the other, alright?”
“Actually there’s something I have to attend to now, I’ll get back to you later!”
Gerald threw his cell phone aside after replying to favonovel.com message.
He was indeed, trying to avoid her. In fact, ever since things had gotten better with Mila, Gerald had been deliberately trying to keep his distance from other girls.
After all, once the current exams were over, Gerald and the other students from his department would still have to stay back in school for another three months to deal with their thesis and dissertations.
Those from Giya’s and most other departments would have left to get their internships during that time.
He would never see favonovel.com again.
Gerald also knew for a fact that favonovel.com could never fit in well in Giya’s circle of friends.
With that reasoning in mind, his muddled thoughts became clear and favonovel.com didn’t spend time worrying about it any longer.
After that, two days just came and went without much of a hitch.
During those two days, Giya would always send favonovel.com a message in the morning and the afternoon, saying that favonovel.com had already reserved a seat for favonovel.com in the library and that favonovel.com was waiting for favonovel.com to come study with her.
Every time favonovel.com asked, Gerald simply made up an excuse to turn favonovel.com down.
Aside from that, favonovel.com had also been inviting favonovel.com for meals to express favonovel.com gratitude. Since favonovel.com knew that favonovel.com would be uncomfortable if Tammy and the other girls were around, there was even a time when favonovel.com asked if favonovel.com wanted to eat with just the two of them together.
However, Gerald simply turned those invitations down as well with more of his excuses.
After that, Giya stopped asking favonovel.com out. In the next three days, favonovel.com didn’t hear from favonovel.com at all.
It almost seemed as though favonovel.com had disappeared.
Gerald didn’t think too much about it. He simply focused on studying and doing his own revision every day. He would also spend his time chatting with Mila about favonovel.com recent developments.
Everything was back to normal.
Late one afternoon, Gerald was returning to school after meeting up with Zack. He stopped by the milk tea shop in front of the school as favonovel.com was planning to get Harper and the other boys some drinks.
“Gerald?”
Out of the blue, a female voice called out to him.
When favonovel.com turned around, favonovel.com saw that it was Tammy. It seemed as though favonovel.com was waiting in line to buy milk tea as well. Though favonovel.com looked slightly surprised to see favonovel.com there, favonovel.com also had a very bitter expression on favonovel.com face.
In the past, favonovel.com would always laugh and tease favonovel.com whenever favonovel.com saw him.
However, the only look favonovel.com was giving favonovel.com now, was one filled with hatred.
Gerald didn’t mind that. His milk tea was ready at that moment. He smiled at Tammy before saying, “I’ll pay for this beautiful girl’s drink as well!”
“Alright!” replied the seller with a smile on his face.
“There’s no need for that! Who needs you to pay for me! Why are you so nosy?!” shouted Tammy in response as favonovel.com glared at Gerald.
“I… Tammy, what did I do?” asked Gerald, confused.
“So you don’t even know what you’ve done, huh. Don’t you realize how many times you’ve already rejected Giya’s invitations?” growled Tammy angrily as favonovel.com frowned.
Gerald coughed. He knew this was coming.
“Do you know that Giya would wake twenty minutes earlier every day just so that favonovel.com could go to the library and reserve a seat for you? When we asked favonovel.com why, favonovel.com told us that you would be joining us at the library to study together in the future. But you never came. You just kept making dumb excuses!”
“Even during favonovel.com afternoon study invitations, favonovel.com would always bring fruits along saying that favonovel.com had already notified you about studying together. But of course you didn’t go!”
“You did it to Giya for two days in a row! Don’t even talk about the times Giya tried inviting you out for meals. She was so afraid that you just weren’t used to eating out, that favonovel.com even ordered and booked some food for you from the cafeteria! She just wanted to have lunch with you and favonovel.com didn’t even allow us to join favonovel.com since favonovel.com was afraid that we would tease you too much. Even then, you still refused to accept favonovel.com invitation!”
