At the end of the class the students were assigned with group projects. Henry had 1 guy and 2 girls in his group; Jacob, Sarah and Vanessa. The 4 of them had a discussion in which they introduced themselves.
In Henry’s point of view Jacob seemed like a nice guy, Vanessa was a quite girl and Sarah was quite fashionable, but in the end all that mattered was how much they would contribute to the project. Everyone seemed like good and hardworking person so Henry was little relieved.
Henry: so where do we meet for the group discussions?
Sarah: I think the café that is located nearest to the college would be fine.
Vanessa: I'm fine with any place.
Jacob: yeah me too.
Henry’s phone rang, it was Liam, and he picked it up.
Liam: where are you?
Henry: oh I'm at this room next to the business department
Liam: okay stay there I'm coming.
Henry put down his phone and went on with the discussion with his group mates. Liam came inside the room.
Liam: hello everyone! I'm here to pick Henry if you guys don’t mind.
Henry: Liam you should have stayed outside
Liam and Henry were talking while everyone else was focused on Liam especially Sarah.
Henry: sorry guys I have to go.
Jacob: don’t worry. We have each other’s number we’ll contact you when we’ll need you
Henry: ok bye!
Henry and Liam left the room.
Sarah: oh my god! Did you see that tall guy?
Jacob: yeah he’s pretty famous around the campus
Sarah: I didn’t know men like that existed
Vanessa: you probably don’t know because you’re new but I heard he’s gay.
Jacob: I heard something like that too.
Sarah: Aww! Good men are either gay or taken. Never mind I'm still gonna give it a shot
Vanessa: if it suits you but I would suggest you to stay away from him
Sarah: and why is that?
Jacob: because you’ll only get hurt
Vanessa: besides you saw how he looked at Henry and Henry has been with Liam since high school … I think that they have feelings for each other
Sarah: and what prove do you have of that?
Jacob: we’re just giving you an advice
Sarah stood up from her chair and said
“Gay or not my charm always works. You don’t know how many guys I've seduced from where I come from”
She says this and slides her fingers through her hair and leaves the room, as if she is fully confident on herself.
Vanessa: wow isn’t she full of herself.
Jacob smiles awkwardly trying to suppress the cold atmosphere in the room.
Liam and Henry are walking in the park. Henry still can’t believe that Liam agreed to his proposal. Henry looks closely at Liam’s face and smiles.
Liam: what? Is there something on my face?
Henry: no I was just admiring your face
Henry says this in a flirtatious tone as if he was rizzing Liam up. Liam smiled at Henry’s compliment.
Liam: well we don’t have much time for admiration for my face; we have to meet Ava before she leaves the city.
