Rina and Flora were in the library, it was recess, so they decided to go to the library.
Flora picked novels while Rina worked on her chemistry project.
"So how was his house?" Flora asked
"No noise please" the librarian said.
"Am sorry ma'am" Flora said dragging Rina out of the library.
"What's the matter?" Rina asked collecting her books.
"Let's go out, I wanna talk with you"
"Alright, hold on"
...
...
...
"What do you think will happen? We just did project and I left"
"Ugh you're are a sociopath"
"Why do you say? What exactly do you want me to say?" Rina rolled her eyes when she met someone walking along the corridor.
"Great they're here" Flora looked at Rina's direction and saw Karl and Gg.
"Oh my God, you should be happy you guys are friends"
"Shut up okay, am sick of you"
Rina left holding her book, she was about to pass Karl and Gg when Karl held her back.
"Hold on" he said.
"What now?"
Karl smiled seeing she was tired of him already.
"Why are you smiling now?" She said looking at him.
"I want to talk to you for a moment" he said and left.
"Come on go now" Gg told her
Rina sighed and left.
Karl came to the front of the restroom.
"why the Boys bathroom?" She asked
"Cause I am a boy" he said slowly looking at her.
"Alright what do you wanna say?"
"Can I have your phone number?" He asked without hesitation.
Rina paused for a moment before speaking.
"Why do you want to have my phone number?" She asked
"Oh okay so you don't want to have my contact?" He asked her another question ignoring the one she asked.
"I never said that"
"Oh so you want my contact?" He asked.
"I-I didn't say that either"
Karl chuckled looking down, his dimples were at sight whenever he smiled.
Apart from his bed, his dimples were also one thing she fell in love with.
He was absolutely cute with it, she smiled to herself looking at him.
Karl raised up his head before bringing out his phone from his back pocket.
"Put in your number" he said.
Rina looked at his phone and collected it, it still looked new and fresh, it was an iPhone.
"Your password" she said giving him the phone.
"Rina" he said looking down.
Rina paused for a moment.
Wait a minute?! Did he just say Rina? Or was she hearing properly.
"R-Rina?" She asked
"Mhm" he looked at her
"Is there any problem?" He asked her like it was nothing.
Rina slowly shook her head and typed in her name and it unlocked immediately.
"But seriously, why my name?" She asked.
"I seem to like the name" Karl said.
Rina immediately saved her phone number typing Rina as the name there.
"Do you want mine?" He asked not tearing a gaze from her
Rina felt like he is seeing through her the way he looked at her.
"I-if you want" she brought out her phone and unlocked it.
Karl smiled before typing his number in no less than five seconds, he gave it to her.
"It's okay if you're shy to tell me yes" he said
"Am not" Rina looked down trying to cover her face.
"Am glad you liked my gift" Karl said changing the topic.
"Gift?" Rina raised her head and asked before Karl tucked her hair behind her ear and pointed at the ear pods she wore.
"Oh, you gave it to me, I can't waste it" she said innocently.
"Do you like it?" He asked
"Of course I do" she said smiling
Karl nodded before removing the other left ear pod which he wore and stepped forward a little then putting her hair behind her ears.
"Karl, what are you doing?" She asked slowly.
"Relax am not gonna kiss you" he said
"Eh-what? K-kiss me? Are you crazy?"
"Am not" he said then putting the ear pod in her ear.
"Why would you even think......."
"Shhhhhh" Karl places his index finger on her pink lips.
"You're hurting my ear" he whispered.
Rina could hear him clearly because they were close to each other.
Rina slapped his finger away from her lips.
"No am not, your ear hurts because of the music you listen to all the time you see" Rina said before pushing him away and leaving.
Karl chuckled at her sudden behavior. She was so cute when angry.
"Hey Karl" Karl heard a lady like voice call his name.
He turned around and saw a girl with dark brown hair, wearing sunglasses with an off shoulder orange shirt and blue jeans with black sneakers.
"Hey" he said slowly.
"Oh common Karl, why do you always have to be like this, have you forgotten me or what?"
"Yeah yeah please remind me" he said.
The girl smiled and removed her glasses.
Karl narrowed his eyes looking at her trying to remember who she is.
"Um I don't think I remember"
"It's Rhona, Karl"
Karl raised his eyebrows snapping his fingers.
"Rhona Anderson?"
"Of course you forget so easily"
"Omg" he said and pulled her in for a hug.
"What are you doing here?" He asked pulling back
"What? Can't I come back home or what?"
"Wait you wanna school here?" He asked
"Of course yes"
"Okay then cool" he said before his phone rang.
"Umm excuse me" he said looking at his screen before rejecting the call.
"Oh great thank goodness you didn't pick the call"
"What why?" He asked putting his phone at his pocket.
"Still wanna talk with you" she folded her arms.
Karl chuckled but didn't say anything.
"So, who's that girl, you were with"
"Oh she? She's my friend"
"So Karl Jeffery has a new female friend because I left"
"Come on you're still my friend"
"I said nothing" she said.
"How close is she to you?" She asked again
"Rhona what's wrong with you? Chill out, she's just a friend"
"I feel like it's more" she said
"Fine, think whatever you wish" he turned and left.
"Karl come on, I was just joking"
Karl didn't say anything and just continued walking.
Rhona wore her glasses back and continued the discussion.
"So? Karl tell me, is she much beautiful than I am" she asked as Karl stopped walking and looked at her tiredly.
"I don't know, but don't say this at her front, she isn't weak" he said this and continued walking as Rhona rolled her eyes and followed him.
She saw Rina from afar when she pushed Karl away but she didn't take a closer look, seeing her features she thought she was really beautiful, she did want to see this girl Karl called a friend.
And her wish came true.
Rina and Flora walked quickly as the bell rang, Rina holding Flora's hand and walking quick, bumped into the both of them making Rina's phone fall.
"Oh am so sorry" Rina said without looking at who she bumped into, she tucked her hair behind her ears and bent down to pick her phone off the floor.
She stood up and met Karl and Rhona.
Rina looked at Karl and then slowly looked at Rhona.
Flora leaned in and whispered to Rina.
"Who's she?"
"I don't know"
"Hey Rina, there you are meet Rhona" Karl said
Rina and Rhona looked at each other before Rhona brought out her hand for a hand shake.
"Oh hi I am Rhona, Karl's best friend, nice to meet you Rina"
Rina didn't even bother to put on a smile on her face. She looked down at Rhona's hand and her long finger nails.
"Nice to meet you" Rina said monotoned
Rina looked at Karl and held Flora and was about to leave when Rhona stopped her.
"Karl, isn't this the ear pods I gave you as a present?" Rhona asked looking at the ear pods in Rina's ears.
"Oh yeah, I gave her as a gift...."
"Gift for what? I gave you this, why did you give her?"
"Oh am sorry but is it a problem to gift someone something?" Flora asked
Rhona looked stunned.
"Are you talking to me like that?"
"Of course, who else?"
"You better be quiet or I will shut you up" Rhona looked at her already angry.
"Rhona not now" Karl said
"Forget it Karl, I still wonder how this girl is your friend"
Rhona was about to leave when Rina held her back.
"Excuse me?" Rina said to her already leaving Flora and standing close to Rhona.
"Mhm you heard me right"
"Rina, that's enough...."
"No Karl, I want to know who she is, how dare she?" Rina said
"Karl do you see what kind of friend you have, she's totally useless"
Rina got angry and was about to push Rhona when Karl came between them holding Rina back.
"Rina not now, behave" he told her holding her shoulders.
"Who does she think she is? Is she crazy?!" Rina struggled out from Karl's grip but he held her tight.
"Hey Rina! Behave" he scolded
Everyone had already gathered watching them.
It seems any little drama in this school everyone gossips about it.
"Oh my God Karl she's so arrogant" Rhona said
Karl closed his eyes before turning to Rhona.
"She isn't, you're getting her mad"
"I am? Karl, you saw what she did!"
"You better shut up" Rina said going to her when Karl held her back.
"Karl leave me alone, I will teach her a lesson" Rina struggles from Karl's grip.
"Rina let's go, leave her alone" Flora said And Karl left her alone.
Rina looked at Rhona before adjusting her hair.
"Anyways thank you Karl for the gift" she flipped her hair and left with Flora.
"Ughh!" Rhona said angrily and left.
