"Tristan, why are you walking out?" Zendaya followed me; she always called me Tristan since we were kids beside Tristan is my second name
"I didn't walk out, I was just left because it was noisy" That Lucas is annoying and Seven are flirting
"Hahahaha why? Jealous?" She smirked
"I'm not" I will never be jealous just because of that flirty girl. Never; I resumed my meal
"Yes, you are.. HAHAHA" She continues laughing, sometimes it's also annoying that Zendaya already knows that I'm in bad mood but she making me angry more
"Shut up will you?" She's still laughing
"I know you better than you do, you like her admit it. Why don't you try to court her?" She put her chin on her hand which was resting on the table
"Nothing will happen either, for sure she will dump me, that's the fact, even if I court her and gives the planet mars I still have no hope. Because she's Seven Crimson" It's impossible for her to like me period
"Ohh really? How did you know? Have you tried? You know what Tristan It's been a while, past is past look at her she had changed without her noticing" I looked at her place; she's laughing. Yeah Zendaya's right she changes a lot but still; Seven is Seven
"I guess what you see is different from what I see" I ate the last spoon of food in the lunch box
"Tss the way she looks at you I know she likes you" Her eyes are blurry
"Change topic" I don't want to talk about her
"I will show you she likes you" Then she winked
"I will show you something" She took her phone and showed me something
While watching my mood gradually change
The way Seth's Laughs like they're the only people here, everyone is looking at them he's with Zendaya.
The nerve, I have lost my appetite. My attention is only focused on them.
"This is my first time I say vice-president laugh," Eunice said
"Oh death, I already know that" We all looked at Judith
"What?" I asked
"Zandeya's move.." What? I don't get her
"I think, Zandeya likes vice-president. Zendaya won't make such an effort to make vice-pre laugh if she doesn't like him" Alma said
This is my first time seeing him laugh like that, he was even more handsome when he was laughing, with too much thought deepened I forgot Lucas seating next to me.
The class is over but I'm still floating with my thought. Do they think of each other as just childhood friends? Or they like each other not just a friend, but more than that
We are all here at the gate with a theme; Seth, Lucas, Alma, Judith, Eunice, and Wilson who are Alma's boyfriend
"Where's Zandeya now?" It's Eunice
"She has a meeting with the school management," Seth said, he knew very well nice; sarcastic
"Oh there she is" Eunice pointed to Zendaya who was currently out at the gate
"You're late again," We said in chorus
We plan to go to the mall; we would have watched a movie. Seth, Lucas, and Zendaya are the only ones with the car so Eunice and Judith went with them while Alma got on Willson's motor while I was in Seth's car.
As soon as we arrived we immediately went to the fifth floor because the arcade was there. I was standing here outside or arcade as they came in to play
"Why are you just there?" Zendaya turned and look at me
I don't know if I will say it or not, but when Zendaya raised an eyebrow I could do nothing but tell her the truth
"I have never been in this place before" I remember when I was still in High School once while we were at the mall we passed the arcade, it's funny like I want to go in and play because I noticed a kid coming out there and she was happy with the teddy bear she got when I planned to ask my friend to go in there, they said only poor people go there so I didn't force them, then we leaved
They are all stopped and turned to me, I turned my eyes to the floor I'm waiting for them to tease me.
But that's not what happened, Alma and Eunice came up to me and they held my arm in reverse then they spoke:
"We will teach you exactly how to play those" I looked at them all their smiling faces greeted me
"Don't come to Alma, she doesn't know how to play" That's Willson
"Look's who is speaking, you can't play basketball. I'm better than you ugly creature" Then we laugh
We almost spend some time in the arcade when we decided to eat first before going home, we entered a fast-food chain there are only a few people now because it's past eight o'clock and this mall will close in a few hours.
When the boys arrived with our food, we started eating while laughing.
"This is what friendship means" I heard Seth whisper who is currently next to me; he was smiling
Yeah, I think this is the real meaning of friendship..
