Mai felt a banging thump in her ears. It was the sound of her heart, something that she was starting to hear quite often these days, but why now of all times? Was it because Scarlett's declaration had come as a complete surprise to her? … or could there be another reason behind it?
"Are you really telling me that you're interested in Simon?" Mai asked, making sure she hadn't heard wrong, pointing towards the toilet door. She then adjusted her hand slightly, mimicking Simon as he had leaned forward to tell her that their meeting had to be fate. "You sure you got the right person, the jokester, the blond haired ditz?"
Scarlett found Mai's overreaction quite amusing as she casually wiped her hands with a paper towel as if it was no big deal. "Simon's cute, funny and you might not have realised it, but a lot of us girls find him good looking. I was pleasantly surprised how much I enjoyed his company today, so I would like to see him again."
