"You want this?" He offered me the fries using right his hand. I moved my hand closer to his hand to get the fries and when I feel his hand, I feel the electricity in my body. When he noticed that I touch his hand, he clenched his jaw.
"Thank you." I gave him a small smile. He clenched his fists like he was stopping something inside him. "Is there something wrong?" I was worried.
He shook his head "I'm fine." I nodded.
"As far as I can remember, we are in the same class now," he stated, I was startled.
What? W- we are on the same c- class!? "Let's go together since we are on the same class." he offered to us.
We are now in our class. I am in the middle of Athena and Zavien Dean. "This is really hard!" Athena murmured.
"Shh," this girl is rin the same class. I didn't want our professor to notice us because we are noisy or someone of us is noisy.
"Who wants to build a team once they are lawyers already?" This was our professor. The three of us raised our hands. "Only them?" Professor Lia was looking for someone who will raise his/her hand too. "The three of you can be a team. You can build a big team to buy adding members."
The three of us smile widely like we are so proud of ourselves. "I can't wait for that time" I whispered but it looks like they both hear what I have said.
After our class, Zavien Dean invites us to go to the mall. At first, I hesitated. But Athena said yes, so I think I should agree too.
"Let's go there!" That was Athena. She wanted to go to the amusement park in the mall. We're on the second floor and Zavien was still not here. He said that he will park his car first and we should go first.
When I saw him from afar, wearing a brown hoodie and round shades, I noticed that he is tall. I think he is 5'8, while I'm 5'6. "Hey!" he taps my head, I didn't notice that he is already in front of me.
"Hi!" I waved my hand to lessen the awkwardness in me. But when I feel that I made it more awkward, I slowly put my hands down then lowered my head.
"Why?" He put his hand on his lips like he was finding out why I act like that. "Is there something bothering you?" he ran her hands through his hair.
I shook my head. Athena called us while she was busy playing on the claw machine. He suddenly gets my hand to go to Athena. When we are beside Athena, she looked at our hands. I immediately unravel it, he looks at me but I just ignored it.
"S- so? Let's go?" he avoids eye contact.
I thought we will play some games but Zavien bought us at the Bookstore. "Let's find a Criminology Book."
"You will buy?" I asked. This time he didn't get my hand. I'm not disappointed huh!
He nodded. "Are gonna buy too? We need to read in advance." he reminds us
He got a point. Being a law student is hard that's why we need to study in advance. Our professor is a bit strict and that motivates me to study harder. I didn't want to be embarrassed in front of the class!
"I think we need this too." Athena showed me the cattleya notebook. I nodded then get two cattleya notebook. When I turn my gaze on Zavien, he's looking at every book here. He even skimming some pages of the books he's getting.
"Let's pay" that was me. They followed me because I'm in front of them. Zavien adds speed to his walk that's why he is on my side already. He was about to get the books and notebooks that I'm holding but I suddenly took it away from him. "I can manage to hold this" he didn't talk. I can see the disappointment in his eyes.
I'm in front of the cashier, I put the cattleya and Criminology Book on the table to pay. I get my wallet and took money from it. I was about to give the money to the cashier when Zavien gives his money first. "Hey!," I tap her hand "I can pay for it." he nodded and put back his money while pouting.
Next to me is Zavien, he is pouting until now. He started paying for the thick books that he buys. Next to him is Athena, she is quiet now and it's a bit innovative because she's not always like this. A while ago, she is just looking at us. She looks pure and innocent with her wavy hair and fair skin when she is quiet.
"Why are you not talking?" I asked, worried.
"I'm just hungry," she holds her tummy and pout. "Let's eat" Zavien come closer to us but his eyes were on me.
"Athena is hungry" he nodded, not saying any word. We're not in a library but why are they so quiet! "You guys are so quiet!" I demanded.
Zavien chuckled.
"Let's have pizza?" We followed Zavien but he makes his steps a bit slow that's why he is beside Athena.
"What do you guys want?" Athena asked while giving us the menu.
"Pasta," I said then pointing at the picture of the pasta on the menu.
"I want the pasta too." that Zavien.
Athena is the one who ordered the food. Zavien and I were at the table, waiting for the food. "Why do you want to be a lawyer?" he suddenly asked. "Can you tell me while waiting?"
He gained my attention "When I was a child, I was curious about what lawyers do. When I step into high school, one of my hobbies is reading about the law. Now, I promised myself that I, myself, will become a good lawyer"
While I was telling him why I want to be a lawyer, he was looking at my face. He is looking at every part of my face. I didn't know but I feel shy while he was looking at me.
