That night when everyone who lived in this country had fallen asleep, only Kaylee still hadn't closed her eyes. She did not know why her eyelids refuse to close, and her thoughts drifted to her previous date with Declan.
Sotis she smiled to herself while covering her face with her pillow, and sotis she shifted to worry when she rembered that she would et Declan as Nick.
What should she do when she t that man?
If only Declan hadn't confessed his feelings, and she had never heard what endear na he called her, Kaylee was pretty sure she could act normal when she t him.
But… how could she act normal when her heart was pounding every ti she rembered her date?
Even just thinking about that man, her heart was already beating so wild that it made her want to scold her heart so that it would behave like a good girl.
After what seed like an eternity, finally, Kaylee fell asleep without her realizing it.
The next day Kaylee left for the campus at eleven o'clock in the afternoon because her class schedule started from noon. That's why she could rest in her house longer while working on the rest of the song's arrangent requests from her clients.
After that, she returned to playing the Black Moon's masterpiece, Require to Live. It seed like she would never get tired of playing this song. But why is it that every ti she plays the first note of Black Moon's the song, she reminisced about her date yesterday?
In the end, she couldn't focus at playing it, and she often made mistakes when she played a bunch of seemingly intricate quaver notes with pentatonic motifs.
Kaylee decided to stop playing the piano and carried out the rituals of her role-costu.
Kaylee walked out of her apartnt and headed to the bus stop to campus. Every now and then, she would rub her stomach to relieve the pain of the cramps. Even though the cramps weren't as painful as yesterday's, Kaylee still felt uneasy.
Fortunately, her period cramp only occurred on the first day. She hardly felt cramped again from the second day to the next. Kaylee just needs to avoid extre activities to not go to the bathroom too often to change her sanitary.
Unfortunately... her wish was not fulfilled. Her college friends imdiately flocked to her as soon as her class was over.
"Yo, Nick! Let's have a basketball match!"
No way!
"I'll pass today."
"What? Why? We are short on people."
"You know I can't play Basketball. I suck at it. "
"But girls from singing class only show up to see you play."
"…"
It felt like Kaylee wanted to cry. Is there a way to avoid her friends' requests?
"Hey, guys, what's up?"
Kaylee's hopes soared as Jacob walked over to them. "Jack, they are short on players. How about you join them?"
"Sure, why not? What are we playing?"
"Basketball! Let's go!"
Jacob laughed at his friends' enthusiasm as he pulled Kaylee's hand and made the girl shrieked in surprise. Kaylee tried to keep up with Jacob's pace and only breathed a sigh of relief when Jacob let go of her hand as soon as they reached the basketball court.
Kaylee joined other friends in multi-story seats to watch a basketball ga between music and painting majors class.
"Hey, Nick, you're not joining?" one of her friends asked Kaylee as if they were all waiting for Kaylee to co to play.
Don't they know that she is terrible at playing Basketball?
Kaylee's team always loses every ti she joined them because of her weak throws or often misses. Surprisingly, the girls even liked her and cheered her even more.
Kaylee was a girl inside, but she couldn't understand the way of thinking of a girl who was not her mind.
"I will bring defeat on our team."
"That is precisely what we are waiting for!"
Kaylee raised an eyebrow at her friend to wait for the continuation of the young man's sentence.
"We've already placed a bet on your opposing team."
What? So they made a bet to see her lose? Kaylee wanted to reprimand them and scold them, but she knew they would look at her so sarcastically that Kaylee did what she didn't want to do.
"Hohoho, that's why I don't want to play. I expected that you would bet on my loss," boasted Kaylee while rubbing her nose proudly, making her friends joke at her witty.
"Whooo-hooo! Go go, Jacob! Go go, Jacob!"
Kaylee could hear the girls cheering for Jacob, who was now dribbling the ball towards his opponent's ring. Like the other girls, Kaylee also wanted to cheer on her friend. Even more so, she hoped that the young man managed to put the ball into the opponent's goal ring.
Jacob continued to dominate the match and got past the opposing mbers trying to grab the ball. He made a misleading movent expertly and made it to the area of the opposing team's ring. As soon as he felt close, Jacob caught the ball with both hands and threw it straight into the opponent's circle goal.
"WHOOOOO!!!" exclaid the girls simultaneously as the ball went in and out of the goal ring against Jacob's team.
"Go for it, Jake!"
Jacob's friends' cheers were no less exciting, making Kaylee also get influenced and cheered on her best friend.
"Go beat them, Jack!" Kaylee's cheer made Jacob smile broadly at her and threw a hand at Kaylee as if he were doing a fistbump.
Kaylee laughed at Jacob's reaction and threw her right hand towards Jacob to greet the young man's fist bump.
Among other friends, Kaylee felt very comfortable with Jacob. There was already common knowledge circulating the kids. Wherever they saw Jacob, they would see Nick also and vice versa. Hence, if one wished to find Nick, they could search Jacob first and vice versa.
No one knew who started it first, but Jacob and Nick often bumped into each other and finally decided to go to the cafeteria or the library together.
Unfortunately, the two of them couldn't always be together because they take different class schedules. Kaylee took guitar class while Jacob was a percussion student.
"Hey, look at the girls there. They all forget about the other players and only look at Jacob. What an eyesore. He shouldn't be here."
Kaylee rolled her eyes lazily when soone mocked Jacob. She glanced at the young man with a look of displeasure to make the person think Kaylee was challenging him even though she didn't.
"What are you looking at?"
Gulp!
Why did it turn out like this?
