Colombia University City M
In class
"Yes, we have prepared this just for you."
"How?"
"I…, well I want to," Gretta replied in the end when she relented when she saw the smiles of her two companions.
The smile Gretta had wanted to see for a long time, not knowing if it was this smile that would be the reason why hatred would continue.
"Good! Then let's go home together!" Starla said with a happy smile.
"Yeah, we're going home together," said Elena with her smile too, a strange smile when she looked at it.
Gretta shook her head with this newly displayed smile, leaving Starla and Elena stunned and speechless at the sight.
"I can't, next time. I have important business now," said Gretta in a soft tone and this made the two friends even more silent.
This… that arrogant Gretta? they both thought in unison.
Gretta who saw the two girls in front of her frowned, then waved her hand and called the names of the two in confusion.
"Starla, Elena, what happened?" Gretta continued to ask.
Suddenly, Starla and Elena who heard it stuttered and shook their heads in unison. They were amazed when they saw the beautiful smile of the young lady who always displayed an arrogant face.
Did they see wrongly, but…, why are they feeling like this?
"It's okay, Gretta. We're fine," Starla replied on behalf of Elena, who nodded quickly.
"Okay! Then I'll go first. See you tomorrow, Starla, Elena. Bye!" cried Gretta as she got up from her seat and left the two of them silent again. It seemed, Gretta didn't even notice that she was already showing a cheerful expression.
Yes, because in truth, a Gretta only needs a friend's confession from the two girls who are now looking at each other.
After Gretta left the classroom, these two beautiful girls touched each other and whispered about what they had seen.
"You see, Gretta smiles for us and her smile looks genuine," Starla whispered to Elena who just snorted.
"Don't be fooled by her angelic face, you know that her smile is always meant for something that makes her happy," replied Elena with a hateful expression. Elena watched Gretta leave with something burning in her heart. She wouldn't be fooled just by the smile she saw just a moment ago.
Another Elena who really hates Gretta. So it's different with Starla feeling a little sorry for a Gretta, actually Starla knows how Gretta used to be because she happened to know that
figure from a young age. Not that they were friends, he'd just seen that Gretta wasn't like that before. However, for some bitter reason in Starla's life, she tried to deafen her ears from conscience and smiled sarcastically again.
"You're right, arrogant is still arrogant," Starla said and the two of them left the class following in Gretta's footsteps.
In the hallway, there was Gretta walking with a flowery heart. Finally, she could hear the sacred word from the lips of the two virgins who faithfully followed him.
Ah! If only they could declare as friends from the beginning, maybe she wouldn't have to show a cold face ever day.
However, just as she wanted to smile, at the crossroads of the corridor her smile had to fade again, when she saw a young man standing casually blocking his walk.
"Hi, Dear. It's getting prettier," he greeted with a charming smile. Yes, for those who are crazy about the young man in front of her, but it's different with Gretta who actually raises an eyebrow, skeptical.
Hell…
How dare this young man seduce her when they no longer have a bond.
Bond again?
Yes, to be precise, the young man who is currently spreading a charming smile is her ex-lover. Don't think it's because her ex loves him, because the answer is no and she's just normal when this young man in front of her expresses love.
It's all just because of the status of the man, who is the prince in her college studying and she doesn't have the slightest feeling.
"Get out of the way," Gretta said coldly, staring at the man in front of her flatly. But unfortunately, the man in front of her just smirked sideways.
"No, Gretta. Before we return and you back to me," the man said casually. Instead, he drew closer to Gretta, who didn't move back at all.
Hell!
Is Gretta scared? Do not expect it.
Because for her, as long as she is right she will not be afraid of anything.
Tap!
Now the man was in front of Gretta with only three steps left, with the man showing an increasingly pleased expression.
"Return with you?" Gretta's parrot with a sinister smile. "Never, tsk!" She continued with a sigh.
"I was drunk at the time, Gretta. I let go because you rejected me yourself-
"And vent your damn desire on another woman? Cheap, you don't deserve me," interrupted Gretta with a sarcastic sneer.
The man was silent with what Gretta said. His hands clenched, when he felt himself being humiliated like this.
Hey! Don't blame him, was an arrogant girl who simply didn't want to be touched, even if just holding hands.
"I still love you, Grett-
"Eat your own love. Don't look at me again or you'll suffer the consequences," Gretta hissed interrupting with sarcasm and threats that never play.
With that, Gretta also left the man who was just silent with his fists clenched, holding back his anger because his pride had fallen in front of the young lady from a famous family in his city.
After Gretta left in front of the man, came two girls who had actually watched the fight between the two from afar. The two of them were standing in front of the staring man with a nod of the head, when a sentence was spoken.
Back to Gretta, who continued on her way. Arriving at the parking lot, she did not immediately enter her luxury car but called Randie to pick up the car, while she herself would walk to a place.
The call connected, Gretta without further ado ordered Randie to go to her campus and the call ended after Randie said yes.
After confirming that the car would return home safely, Gretta walked towards the campus gates impatiently.
The place she was going to was the one where she could be another Gretta. A simple place with warmth in it and this is what makes her turn down invitations from her 'friends'.
It's only a few blocks from the campus, so walking is not a problem for her. Then, a building with a Seeventh Café nameplate appeared neutral and her smile grew wider.
Cring!
The cafe door opened, a middle-aged man greeted her friendly and another girl approached her with a friendly smile too.
At first it was a friendly smile, but it was replaced with a sinister smile when she remembered the behavior of the girl who opened the door.
"Gretta I told you to just focus on your lectures, why are you even trying to help us, heum?"
"Gosh! Ayana is so mean, I gets bored just sitting around."
"Never mind Ayana. Let Gretta help you."
"But Papa!"
"Allow me please…."
To be continued.
