"Hey!" He greeted.
I couldn't answer him because I was busy with myself. I was coughing while lightly punching my chest.
"Easy there. Here, help yourself," he said while offering me a glass of water. I can't even refuse; it was a matter of life and death for me.
He chuckled slightly and continued, "There are no one else sitting in this table, right? Can we also sit here?"
After calming myself, I glanced at the two people standing in front of me. It was, if I'm not mistaken, DJ's friend and DJ himself.
I nodded. While confused as why they want to sit with me, I didn't ask them. I mean, they mean no harm, right?
"Great! Rin, you can just sit here and wait for me. My treat for today." He talked with his friend. It seems that he was in a good mood.
On the other hand, his friend seemed like he was in shock. His mouth was slightly open and his eyes were almost bulging out from his head. I wonder what's the problem.
After DJ walked away to order their food, his friend finally looked at me, albeit his eyes were still wide.
"Uh, you…" he could not finish his question as he pointed his finger at me. I really wonder why he was so flustered.
"Um, I'm Anntoinette Foralla. You are…?" I just introduced myself first.
It seemed like he finally regained his senses, and answered, "Oh, haha. I – I'm so sorry for that. I was just too surprised, since I witnessed a rare Jake. Anyway, I am Rinleev Calodantia, Jake's best friend. You can simply call me Rin."
"I see. Nice to meet you." I shyly said. But when I realized him saying he was DJ's friend, my cheeks turned hot all of a sudden.
Don't tell me he-
"Ann? What's wrong? Are you feeling sick?" he asked in concern.
It was my turn to be speechless. Is he the one who dared Jake to do that?
Thinking about it again, my face went redder.
I saw Jake's worried face but before he stood up, we heard DJ's voice, "What happened?"
The moment I heard his voice, I quickly ran away. I hope they won't realize the reason.
Thank God I was already finished eating, or else I would have to waste food in my first day here in school.
