"Look, isn't that the girl who was talking with Lance Henderson at the gymnasium?" she heard someone talking about her at the nearby table. "Oh,yes, that's her! What's her relationship with Lance? Is she his girlfriend?" she heard another woman's voice. "What the heck are you talking about? That's impossible. I mean just look at her! She's not fashionable, her face is below average and it's obvious that she doesn't have class! There's nothing special about her!" one of the girls stated.

Lance was about to answer the question when the Manager of Le Coup de Foudre Coffee Shop suddenly appeared infront of them. "What's going on here, Chelsea? What's the commotion all about?" her Manager started asking questions. "Just a little misunderstanding, Sir. Everything's under control." Chelsea tries to cover everything up. "No, sir. Everything's not okay! As a customer, I have complaints!" Demi suddenly said, while looking like a victim. "Is there something wrong?" the manager asks. "Your employee here started saying bad things about me and my friend! She told us that we don't belong here!" Demi started weaving lies. "That's true, Sir. We were just enjoying our coffee here and she started saying bad words to us." Paris lied, without blinking. "She called us "bitch!" Demi added to the lie. "They're all lying---!"

I'll be back soon." the old woman nodded in return then afterwards, she left the room while leaving the door open. Once Mrs. Doubtfire left, Lance started talking again. "Why didn't you tell us that you're not feeling good? We should have done something at an earlier time." he gently asked Chelsea. "I thought that it was just a simple cold and flu. I never got sick like this before. So, I was just thinking that it will pass, and I can recover fast..." Chelsea tries to explain her side. "But you were sadly mistaken. It's a good thing that you just need to drink some medicine and have a long, good rest. But you
