She's the loner in the class. We would sometimes invite her to have lunch with us, but she would often skip class.

"Ah, greetings, Ayshe. Would you like to join us?" I offered. She tilted her head to the side.

"We're going to go to Y/n's bakery and make some chocolate for tomorrow." Barbara elaborated.

"Sure." she replied. Ayshe and I share one thing in common. We can both speak French. Norman's almost fluent despite learning it for only 2 weeks.

"How about you, Gillian? Who are you going to give yours to?" Ayshe asked, turning to Gillian.

"Hm, not telling." Gillian mumbled, averting her gaze. Well, not like we even have to ask to know.

All of us, including Ayshe now, started making our way to my bakery. I believe mom's out again with her homegirls.

"What about you, Barbara? You haven't bought anything." Gilda pointed out. Is Barbara even planning to make any chocolates?

"Didn't you say you had something you needed to buy?" Violet recalled.

"It's quite hard to find in stores, though..." Barbara sighed.

"What are you trying to make?" Anna asked. I have a horrible feeling about this. She's definitely planning something terrible.

"Well, it's boring to make it normally, so it'll be a surprise chocolate!" Barbara grinned.

"What are you putting in it?" Paula asked.

"Something horrible, that's for sure." I mumbled.

"You're not allowed to use alcohol." Ayshe reminded.

"Um...a frog?" Barbara answered, saying it as if it wasn't a horrible act.

"Why are you using a frog?!" Emma shrieked. I knew it wasn't going to be good. If Barbara is making chocolate, don't expect it to be any kind of 'normal' chocolate.

"It's for the surprise effect." Barbara reminded.

"That'll just be a nasty trick." Sonya sighed.

"No, frog meat has a similar texture to tender chicken breast. It shouldn't be bad at all." Gillian mentioned.

"You've tried it before?" Ayshe asked. Gillian stated that it's just something she heard of.

"Chicken breasts don't go well with chocolate, you know." I retorted. Just imagine that...gross.

"We should go back soon and get ready. If Barbara's doing Barbara things, we can't do anything about it." Violet ushered.

"You're right. We should hurry." I agreed. Barbara stated that she'll be a little late, since she'll have to look for...frog meat a little longer.

"Don't you think everthing feels so much more lively now that it's almost Valentine's Day?" I brought up.

"So sweet, so heart-pounding, and heartbreaking." Emma ruined the lively atmosphere.

"However, that light-hearted atmosphere is just a ruse. Valentine's Day is actually a battle royale!" Gillian stated.
