I am not a natural beauty like you, so I need a little touch-up,\" Hannah replied, standing in front of the mirror as she applied her lipstick.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda groaned. \"But he must be waiting for me. Kyle...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah grinned. \"You are not even trying to hide it anymore. You two are now back together, are you not you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda nodded happily. \"Yes. Of course. Absolutely.\" She hummed with delight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah had missed this version of Amanda for far too long. The one who spoke her heart without hesitation, who did not see everything through a negative lens, and whose presence alone filled the space with warmth and hope.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not wanting to make her wait any longer, Hannah finished her makeup and asked, \"How do I look?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda hummed. \"Maybe it is about time you knock a few men down and pick one.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah gave a wry smile. \"I am not into that whole love at first sight thing. And I am not really interested in dating right now.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda’s smile only brightened. \"You will not know until you try at least once.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hannah rolled her eyes, then urged, \"Come on, let’s go.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The two of them left the room and walked down the lobby. The chatter from the main hall was already spilling out toward them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As they entered, Amanda and Hannah naturally drew attention. Amanda especially stood out, dressed in a black bodycon that reached her knees and hugged her curves in a bold yet elegant way. Her midnight hair fell freely over her shoulders, enhancing her natural beauty. Those clear blue eyes, paired with her small, doll-like face, made her the kind of person people glanced at more than once.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>However, Amanda paid no attention to those gazes. Among all the students, she saw only one person. The one man whose attention, whose words, truly mattered to her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There he is,\" Hannah said, already aware of where those oceanic eyes were searching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda followed her line of sight, and there he was... standing alone in a corner, focused on his phone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haah...\" Amanda placed a hand over her heart as it began to beat wildly at the mere sight of him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She knew exactly what he was doing. He knew how she reacted when he dressed in formals, especially in black.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What was this? An attempt to make her fall even harder for him? But she was already neck-deep in his love. Did he want her to drown in it? Nngh... she could barely handle it.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Are you really going to admire him from afar? Look, there are girls checking him out,\" Hannah said, popping the little bubble Amanda had drifted into.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda’s gaze sharpened as she glanced to the side. And sure enough, a few girls were eyeing Kyle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That would not do. Not at all.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She took a steady breath and started walking toward him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yes, she knew he had asked her to keep their relationship discreet for now. But she had never been good at following rules, especially when it came to Kyle.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Eyes followed her as she moved, many already guessing exactly where she was headed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What everyone was truly waiting for was Kyle’s reaction. It was common gossip across the university that the two had broken up for certain reasons.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Kyle,\" Amanda called as she reached him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle slowly lifted his gaze and looked at her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You look beautiful,\" he said, unable to stop himself as he reached up and gently tucked a few loose strands of hair behind her ear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Heat rushed to her face, a natural blush blooming across her cheeks at the simple gesture.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even though he wanted to remain discreet, Kyle could not hold himself back, not even with everyone watching.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda cast a sharp glance toward the girls at the side, only to find them already looking away, their interest gone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda smirked inwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle then asked, \"Did you eat something? I think this might take a while.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda nodded. \"Just a light snack. I could not eat much since this dress does not forgive,\" she said, glancing down at her stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the slightest bump would show through the fabric. So yes, she had been careful.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle chuckled. \"Then I guess I cannot ask you out for dinner after this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda flinched. Dinner... with Kyle? Was she really about to miss that chance?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She looked up at him. \"Would you mind seeing a little bump here?\" she asked, taking his hand and pressing it gently against her stomach.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This endearing girl was truly testing how long he could hold himself back from pulling her into a breathless hug.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shaking his head, he said, \"You are beautiful in every shape and form. So stop worrying about such trivial things, alright?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda’s eyes curved softly as she nodded. \"Mm.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Not long after, the students were directed to another area.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>It was a conference room with a stage set up at the front.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Chairs were arranged neatly across the hall, with tables holding water bottles and small flower vases.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since seating was limited, Amanda and Kyle had to share a table with others.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Ah... you are back.\" Thankfully, it was someone Kyle recognized.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"K-Kyle... you know her? Is she your friend?\" Amanda asked, a hint of panic slipping into her voice as she noticed the beautiful pink-haired girl.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle shook his head helplessly. \"I know the guy holding her hand, Amanda.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At that, Nathan raised his hand awkwardly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As expected, his presence barely registered for Amanda.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh... you are Jeromy, right?\" she said, getting his name wrong again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It is Nathan. Hi,\" he corrected gently before taking a seat across from them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>There was one more seat vacant, and it did not stay that way for long.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hey, there. Aren’t you being rude, avoiding me like this?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newcomer was muscular, his tight shirt outlining the build he had clearly worked for. With his flashy red hair, he stood out easily in any crowd.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His arrival made Terry flinch, while Nathan visibly stiffened.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Kyle noticed it at once. He already knew this was the same guy who had been bothering Terry for a while.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He exchanged a brief glance with Nathan but said nothing. His stance was clear. He would not interfere. This was Nathan’s fight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda, on the other hand, seemed completely unbothered. She was far too absorbed in Kyle’s eyes to care about anything happening around her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then the redhead spoke again. \"How about we grab dinner after this, Terry? For old times’ sake?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The pink-haired girl clenched her fists. \"We just went to the same school. Don’t twist it into something else, Drake.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drake chuckled. \"And what exactly am I twisting it into?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Nathan clicked his tongue. \"Can’t you see she’s uncomfortable talking to you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drake raised a brow in mock surprise. \"Oh? The mule can speak too?\" His gaze swept around before settling on Kyle. \"Ah, I get it. It’s because of that guy. You really think he can save you if I decide to beat you?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Leaning slightly toward Kyle, Drake smirked. \"Are you going to def—\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Tch. Move aside, you chimpanzee.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda snapped, shoving his elbow off the table. The sudden force made Drake’s face slam against the corner.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Gaah! Fuck! Do you have a death wish?!\" Drake barked, enraged as blood began to drip from his nose.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Amanda looked at him coldly. \"Do not get in my way.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Drake’s jaw tightened as he turned his gaze toward Nathan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>’I will deal with him when he is alone.’\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>°°°°°°°°°\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A\u002FN:- You dare disturb the Queen during her worshipping hour?!
