Lily ran after her friend until she approached her. Courtney, why did you run, she asked panting.
Nothing, just I was.... , she was embarrassed to continue.
If what happened is ringing on your mind, don't be, you are very lucky. Jason can be odd with girls
I don't care, because of him, I didn't eat and I don't want to go back, Courtney said
Ok, you can buy snacks from the auto snacker, Lily assured her.
yeah. bringing her credit card and looked at the amount and frowned. I don't have enough cash, said Courtney.
I can borrow you some, Lily tucked her hand into her pocket and felt nothing and touched her other pocket and felt nothing. I think....I forget it, said Lily panicking
Don't panick, we can find a way, she said
I can't be hungry, gah, Lily shouted
Sorry, we just have a class more, don't fuss it, said Courtney trying to calm her
but just then the bell rang and Lily smiled. I have to go to class luckily, it will end fast
Ok, she turned away to her class. She walked to her class but stopped when she saw the handsome figure.
She awkwardly walked past him but her lose band fell down and scattered everywhere.
No,no, no, she bent down and started picking it but it rolled to different directions. don't get lost, her voice began to sobber. Jacky looked back and saw her picking beads on the floor. He saw her sweaty forehead because she was tense.
He walked to her and bent down. are you alright, he asked and she looked up with tears hanging around her lashes. Why are you crying
She became embarrassed and wiped her tears and some beads fell from her hands. sorry
He looked at her as she was interested in picking the bead. She looked at the time and gasped. I am late for class. sorry again. She quickly ran.
He picked all the bead and tucked them into his pocket.
Olivia was with Sam, the class didn't have a teacher and the students chatted quietly.
Olivia, that girl you had a fight with looked just like you, said Sam. She opened her notebook read a sentence and mumured it.
what are you saying, asked Olivia who wasn't doing anything.
I mean, she looks like you but not completely. like from a scale of 1 to 10, I chose 7, said Sam
yeah, right, she scoffed at the statement. I don't care if we look alike but am more better than her, she said

Courtney took her key and opened the door. it was quite arranged as she expected. It wasn't too big or small. it had a room with two bed on each sides and a dinning room close to the kitchen.
She heard the door knob and thought it was the other roomie. it was the roomie. She looked around and was surprised to see her her friend.
Lily, you live here, she asked astonished
yeah, that means we are roomie, she said and ran to hugged Courtney. Courtney pulled away from the hug and looked at her friend
am dirty, let me bath, Courtney walked to the bathroom because she saw only a room after they bedroom and has to be the bathroom.
After some minutes, Courtney came out with a yellow singlet and blue bom short. she saw Lily resting her head on the bed and smiling. it looks like she's thinking.
Courtney sat on the other bed and stopped her trance. What are you thinking about
Still looking at the ceiling. what does it mean to love someone. what is love.
Uh, love is a feeling of happiness, when we have love, we have everything, when you love a person, you will do anything to make them happy no matter what, Courtney said
Whoa, you know a lot, have you fallen in love or are you in love
no, what, she sat up and folded her legs.
Lily also sat up but resting her head on the wall. You must be in love,is it Jacky, she asked smiling
no, he isn't my type
what do you mean, what if his rich and your not, riches has nothing to do with this.
You believe that?, let's forget that, I just lost my bead, my mom gave it to me, said Courtney trying to sound happy but failed
Sorry, if you have the beads,I can help you mend it. Courtney nodded to her friend. I lost it
*********
Jacky didn't drive home straight but called Leo. When he answered he inserted it on loud speaker
Hey, bro, what's up, asked Leo
forget that, am stopping at your house am just few blocks away, he turned the staring wheel and drove into an estate. all the houses were Large.
ok, I will be out now, Leo said and hung up. He drove to his friends building and saw him leaning on the gate.
Leo saw his friend and entered into Jacky sport car. what's the emergency,
do you know where,they mend beads, he asked which got Leo upset.
What the heck man, you called me for this, aren't you rich, you can buy beads but when do you wear beads. Leo asked and looked at the radio but didn't turn it on.
It isn't mine, it's the girl I caught at the cafeteria, he said
So, you want to help her mend her bead, ... are you nut, so many girls want you to show them affection, just a little but you refuse them and now you are giving the attention to that girl..... you know Olivia has a thing for you, he said.
yeah, I know, but I don't care, I just see her as my childhood friend nothing more nothing less so will you tell me where it is, Jacky said focusing on driving.
You aren't far, just drive I will stop you when we reach there.
There was complete silence until Jacky spoke. have you heard from Zack
yeah, he called me and told me he would host a party tomorrow evening, Leo said feeling happy
what a bastard, how can he host a party and he didn't even called, Jason scuffed
he said he lost your number. Jacky looked at his friend angrily. I totally forgot to send your number to him, Leo said defending himself.
Jacky sighed and had a cold look. he looked very terrifying but also handsome.
Jason learn to smile once a while but even if you don't smile, girls fall at your feet, Leo said a little jealous.
Girls are also crazy about him but not as much as Jacky.
Leo looked at the view and turned to look at his friend. what is love
what do you mean
I mean what does it feel like to love someone, I never had a true love,all the girls I dated just loved me because of my money, Leo said with a saddened face.
I don't know, I haven't fallen in love, Jacky answered and smiled seeing the jewelry shop.
I wish I haven't fallen in love also
Jacky smiled at his friend and said. you know love is precious, it beautiful. love make you feel special and I know you will find your true love
Leo looked at his friend surprised because he hasn't talk like this before. wow, you are quite a love expect, as someone stole your heart,is it that girl
No, he looked cold again. just because I helped her that doesn't mean I love her. Jason stopped at the jewelry store and looked at his friend. let's go
