Yuna glanced at the football team members as she signed her name on the form she was given
The process hadn't been tedious for a matter of fact it was in fact pretty simple and easy
"Welcome to our team" Aiden smiled warmly as he draped his arm over her shoulder "mm" she pushed his hand from her shoulder indifferently causing the other team members to chuckle "Aiden's quite the school's hearthrob, aren't you the least bit moved by him?" Nick asked and Yuna glanced at Aiden
To her, he was just an ordinary student with no special qualities
After finalizing all she had to do she walked off to her first class
"Yuna?" Karl asked seeing Yuna walk in "mm" Yuna nodded and Karl grinned widely, his eyes scanned Yuna briefly before turning away to write some equations on the white board
Yuna glanced at the classroom which was filled with students, spotting an empty seat she walked over an sat under the curious stares of the other students
Surely they could only stare at the dumb student who was only resuming so close to the exam date, which was barely a month or two away
"Focus!" Karl's voice was loud causing the students to gasp.
Even with his face flushed from his overdose on alcohol, he was still sharp and clear minded
Everyone's attention willing or unwillingly drawn to him unconsciously
He started to topic for the day and with the students attention on him
The classes went on smoothly
"Who was that?" Nina whispered to Oceana, she hadn't seen Yuna around school ever and if Yuna was indeed a student she should have met seen her face someplace, somewhere
"A friend" Oceana replied as she continued to write on her notebook. The lecturer kept dictating and engaging in small talks would only make her lose focus and fall behind
"Why haven't I seen her before?" Nina asked curiously, she wanted to know everything about Yuna as she couldn't afford losing her new found friend to anyone else
That to her was something she couldn't bear happening, not anytime soon
She still had a lot of delicious meals she wanted Oceana to make her
And little Leo
Nope! She couldn't give up on her friend and allow someone else snatch her away
"I don't see her often either... now can we focus?"Oceana furrowed her eyes slightly, she really wanted to focus too avoid failing all her courses
She really couldn't afford rewriting any exams she pain stakingly wrote
Studying wasn't her greatest forty and exams were her worst enemies
"Okay" Nina pouted pitifully however Oceana ignored her and continued to focus on listening to the professor teach
And after a long day of continuous classes they alas packed up and prepared to leave the class "can we have lunch together" Cairo suggested and Nina frowned clearly displeased to see Cairo
"What do you want now?" Nina asked directly her eyes held a lingering hint of disgust for the young man in front of her
Men who couldn't be men
Were in fact the worst!
Tasteless men! She thought to herself
"I wasn't talking to you….."Cairo frowned equally uncomfortable seeing Nina around Oceana
To him Nina was filthy and could corrupt Oceana with her bad habits
"Why don't you take us shopping after eating?" Nina suddenly asked, a big smile graced her lips as she hooked her arm around Oceana
Her eyes daring Cairo to do the same
If he wouldn't get kicked off the building and end up half dead!
She chuckled to herself
"Let's go shopping after lunch then" Oceana agreed and the group began to walk away
Yuna watched their exchange from a distance, a smile which didn't reach herr eyes graced her lips as she watched them walk away into the distance
"Aren't you going for lunch...….. is everything alright?" Ethan asked adjusting his glasses as he stared at Yuna who stood lazily by the wall watching Oceana's group walk away, he was on his way to submit some notes to a lecturer however seeing a student so listless he stopped to check "I'm fine" she blurted out her words indifferently with her gaze fixed unwavering at the group "come with me... once I'm done handing the notes to the teacher I'll show you a good place to eat" Ethan smiled as he then led Yuna forward and she followed behind
She was indeed starving
The constant gazes of the students at Yuna was unending
She was a beauty
With a pretty face however with her chubby body earning her disdainful stares
With the students labeling her 'fat'
Yuna on the other hand wasn't bothered as she continued to walk behind Ethan
The walk with Ethan exposed her to different routes in the college she had no idea about
And from the short walk she grasped some knowledge about the college, the students and how the college operated
Ethan quickly handed over the notebooks to the lecturer and joined Yuna back out
"The restaurant's a short distance from here…. Sorry to keep you waiting" Ethan smiled as he begun to lead her out of the college environment to the bustling school market outside the gate
Yuna hadn't been to this part of the city and the bustling stalls with street foods made her eyes sparkle
"Cafeteria meals are more expensive than the meals bought outside, to save costs I prefer to eat out here" Elijah commented as they walked "there's a lot out here" Yuna commented as she proceeded to buy a few street foods sold in the stalls
"There's a lot of delicious things out here" she groaned in delight taking a big bite of her fish cake, a genuine smile graced her lips at how delicious the fish cakes tasted, she also bought some buns and dumplings "I'll pay for those, you don't have to pay " Elijah said to her as he proceeded to pay the stall owners in cash "I don't like owing things" Yuna muttered to herself while eating her fish cakes "I offered to pay, you don't owe me" Elijah commented as they alas walked off and after a few minutes they arrived Auntie shen's restaurant amidst the constant stares of the passerby's on Yuna
"Yuna?" Oceana raised a brow seeing Yuna walk in with Elijah, they both found a seat at the corner and ordered a few dishes while engaging in small talk
Soon their meals were served and Auntie Shen said a few words to them before walking away
"She's so pretty" Saki commented as he watched Yuna eat casually with Elijah filling her bowl with proteins "fat" Cairo frowned seeing Yuna's mannerism
Yuna didn't eat gracefully but like an uncultured young lady which didn't sit well with him "Do you think Elijah's interested in her?" Saki asked his eyes stared directly at Yuna with a hint of anxiety
"Elijah still has the student council on his shoulder, surely he can't do a relationship at the moment" Nina assured him "I thought you were gay" Cairo glanced at Saki with a frown etched on his handsome face, he couldn't understand what went on in saki's mind "it's none of your business" Saki snorted and lowered his head to continue eating however he couldn't help stealing glances at yuna
Unlike Cairo he wasn't bothered about yuna's mannerism
Unlike the second generation brats they who came from average homes ate normally and their attitude was plain and easy going without so many lessons and lectures on how to act in line
While Oceana watched the two people on the far end from time to time
Elijah wasn't a bad guy anyway
She thought to herself
In the past one year the student council has made great achievements under Elijah's hardwork
Though he wasn't the president or Vice President his input was no less and was even more commendable
