Once we are out of sight from the restaurant, Victoria released my hand and I looked at her weirdly that I had to stop from my tracks.


"What are you doing?"


She asked, her tone went back to being cold as usual


"Why did you let go of my hand?"


I asked pouting a little, I just love how my hand and hers fit ever so perfect with each other. I extended my hand for her to hold again but she just stared at me dead in the eye and rolled her eye before walking away.


I hurriedly walked as well when I lost sight of her. I rounded a corner when I saw her talking to a group of five people including Lucas, her brother. I made small steps, since I don't want to intrude with what the matter was which looks very serious. Lucas looked over Victoria's shoulder noticing my presence


"Is that Krystal? Hello!"


He said waving at me, I smiled awkwardly at him and waved back. He gestured for me to come over and I did


"And who is this beautiful young lady?"


Asked the middle-aged woman, probably in her late 40s. I felt Victoria tensing up from the question, I mean who wouldn't? You can't just say "she's my student" they would wonder what we are doing in this kind of place with just the two of us. Especially it's not academically related


"She's Zasha's younger sister, remember Zasha mom?"


MOM?!


Their freaking mom is standing before me and that's probably the reason why Victoria's been uptight


"Oh right, I remember. How's your sister, sweetheart?"


"She's goo-"


"Let's go mom"


Victoria spoke before I could even respond


"Wait, aren't you getting dinner with us? It's just us and Victoria's suitor anyway"


Her mom asked


I felt my heart breaking slowly. How the hell did I not know about her suitor? I felt betrayed


"No, she's probably with someone else mom. Let's go"


She answered again, and what she said definitely stung big time. Why is she acting like we did not come here together? I went back to reality to see them looking at me, probably waiting for an answer


"O-oh yeah, I need to go back to my friends in a bit"
