On getting to the workshop, I spotted Allen scribbling on his log book.
I kept my distance, knowing he was probably still mad at me.
I stuffed my hands into the pockets of my workshop coat, letting my eyes scan the workshop.
Heavy machines were mounted at different sections of the workshop. Metal chips were seen scattered about and oil stains spotted the floor.
I felt like I was being watched, until my eyes locked with a pair of familiar azure eyes. Allen Briggs'.
I turned away quickly, the uneasy feeling still swimming in the pit of my stomach. I wasn't ready to face him yet.
I still felt bad about what happened earlier today.
I was lost in my thoughts until a familiar tug pulled on my lab coat.
'Hey Annie!' Amber chirped.
'Hey Amber' I flashed her a weak smile.
'You okay?' She asked, squinting her eyes in scrutiny, causing her glasses to slip down her nose a little.

Should I wear this yellow sundress with brown flower patterns or this brown sundress with yellow floral patterns?' Dara asked, holding up two dresses in front of me over face time. I rolled my eyes as she looked away then switched to faux thought as she glowered at me with her dark orbs.'Yellow would look amazing on you, you know. Sort of compliments your dark skin tone.' I finally said, after few minutes of genuine contemplation.'But brown sort of brings out my brown eyes.' Dara chipped in, staring admiringly at her eyes through a hand mirror.'Dara, for the umpteenth time. Your eyes are rich black.' I rolled my eyes again.'Of course not!' She whined, slumping on her bed. ' They're just a reeeeally dark shade of brown. Like dark chocolate.' She stared off dreamily.Okay, with Dara, you can never argue to an end, except you want to argue for eternity.'Alright Dara. I agree with

The nerve of him!Snapping out of his winknopism, which I am fully aware is not a real word, I scurried to the lecture theatre. As I entered.I spotted Allen holding a bundle of cardboards on one hand and piles of log books on the other.I walked up to him, taking the log books from his hands.'Hi.'

Uh, Annie? Who's him?' Asked Dara, her face scrunched up in scrutiny.'I'll be back!' I sprung up from my seat and ran after Allen, ignoring Dara's voice as she called out to me to wait. I spotted him as he finished buying lunch. Panting, I stopped in front of the lunch line, my palms resting on my knees as I steadied my breath. I got a bottle of water and scurried after Allen as he sat alone at his table.'Are you jealous?' My hands slammed on the table, facing him with his tray of food trapped in between. I leaned in, staring deep into his sky blue eyes, daring him to say the truth.Rolling his eyes, he replied. 'What do you mean, Annie?'Annie? No princess?I blinked back the look of disappointment on my face and sat in front of him.'You know what I mean.' I fixed him with an annoyed look.'Pft... Why would I be?'

It's been hours since Tee left. Tired of staring at the ceiling, I picked up my phone and as usual, I had several missed calls. Scrolling through my call log, I noticed an unknown number dialed a day ago.'Who could this be?' I muttered as my thumb hovered over the dailer. Curiousity getting the better of me, I dailed the number, hoping it doesn't turn out to be a stalker or someone worse.After a few rings, the reciever picked.'Hello?' I said, my voice unnecessarily shaky as I spoke.'Hello. I didn't think you would call.' A strangely familiar voice filtered through the buzzing static invading my ears.'Yeah, likewise because I'm not sure who's speaking. I saw your number dialed on my phone and I had to call to know whose number it is.' I answered.'Ouch. So you didn't save my number afterall.' He replied. 'It's Victor. Victor Storm.'Silence.'Hello?'
