After the whole awkward event with Chris, I silently went home without my friends, embarrassed and ashamed of my clumsy attitude whenever I was around guys
I crashed on my student bed and started thinking about my weird life when my phone's notification bell rang.
I ignored it because mostly I get spam messages from my line so there was nothing to look forward to.
It ranged again, this time I decided to check and it turned out it was from a new number I don't have saved on my phone
The message read :
"Hello there"
"This is Chris, just wanted to check up on you, couldn't find you at the party, where are you? Enjoyed talking to you the other time"
I was totally confused cause I had another version of our conversation in my head as trashy
I hesitated before replying
"Hey "
"Left already " I texted back
"Why? the party is just getting started " he replied
"Was tried, had to go home to rest"
"OK cool, how about we meet up later? would love for us to talk more, what do think? "
"OK cool"
"Great, how about we meet up at the student's regular spot Chims "
I paused for some minutes because Chims was a popular restaurant where only the rich and famous people in school hang out and eat and was rumored to have the most expensive dishes on campus
I was wondering how much Chris must have to be able to afford hanging out with me in chims
And as I was an advocate for equality how would I be able to practice and express myself when I had spent all my student allowance for the month
I tried convincing him to another restaurant I was a regular in and their food was relatively cheap also.
And it was settled, but what wasn't settled was my outfit for the date on
which I had to consult the friends I ditched, Hopefully, they won't be too angry...
