'Don't get swayed Zio! Remember what your purpose here is!'
Clearing my throat, I started the conversation.
"So… What's the occasion? To think you'd invite me to hang out like this, just the two of us. I was surprised honestly."
She was peeking at me while she placed her order to the waiter that came to our table. As she had done, she turned to face me and slightly cocked her head.
"Surprised? Why?"
"Why you said? You literally looked like someone who didn't want to get bothered by people. Even I am still reluctant to talk to you."
"You talked a lot to me these past few days doesn't seem reluctant to me."
"Well. That's because I was bored. Enzo always sleeps, and Niah and Lio are always together like two different sides of a magnet. You're the only one I've never tried to strike a conversation in the group."
"You're popular in class. Surely there is someone else you can try to talk to if you are bored."
