When Cory saw Anna, his mood lightened. At last, there was someone who really cared about him. He knew that he should worry about talking to Sheiley about walking to the stage together. That was what the organizer of the event had told them in the first place. But he brushed that thought of for now. He believed that Sheiley would know to do the right thing. When the call to walk to the stage is made, the both of them would figure a way out. In fact, it would be an easy task. Cory was knocked out of the wandering thoughts when he saw a figure walking towards him. It was none other than Anna. He had been carried away so much that he didn't know when she shut the door of the car, let alone walk towards him. To the extent that she was only three steps away from him. "Anna. What are you doing here?" He hit the nail on its head. Truth be told, he wasn't really sure if that was the right question to ask her. But there was a need to start a conversation first, then perhaps work a way ar
Stupefied, Cory turned to see who the hell that was. Who the hell it was that stepped in his way in such a way. Even if he wouldn't be able to show his supernatural powers here, at least he would leave a mark on whoever the fuck it was. When he looked, he saw a smiling face staring him dead in the eye. It was none other than this worst nightmare, Harry. Harry stood tall, his cologne quite strong and noisy. He had gone to change his own dress, too. It would seem as though there was a dress competition between him and Sheiley. "What do you think you are doing?" Harry snapped at Cory in a low tone, as if he was trying to keep the ears of the crowd away from it. But that was quite unusual. That was not the kind of person he was. Harry was the type to stand on top of a mountain crying for attention. Seeing him talking in a low voice got Cory a little intrigued, which made the latter forget about what he had sworn to do to the person who had interrupted the moment. "Shouldn't I be as
Cory felt glued to the spot as he stared at the lady who was walking towards him. His eyes wouldn't play tricks on him. It was a broad day light, and all moving images were at the peak of brightness under the rage of the brilliant chandeliers. So, there was no way he was mistaking Anna for someone else. "Unbelievable!" Someone exclaimed. "Is she even real? Is this possible?" Another person added. "Medusa really has a rival." Someone said. There were chatters flying around as both male and female were swooned by how beautiful and breathtaking Anna looked. They couldn't find the appropriate words to express their admiration. Although Cory was still lost in thoughts and frenzy of the realistion that had just dawned on him, he wasn't totally out of his mind. Anna had snubbed him outside the hall. Cory had already faced a reasonable amount of disgrace here already. He wouldn't want himself to be a face of mockery. He really wouldn't be able to forgive himself or forgive her if she r
Sheiley was conflicted as she walked to the box. There was a particular thought that kept bouncing off and on her mind. What kind of staff would be in such a medium-sized square box?When she got to the box, she reached her hand out first before leaning forward to check the content. She brought out an object. At first, the object looked like something that was rolled over each other. "Push the button in the side." Anna called at Sheiley. Sheiley did as told almost immediately. There was no point pretending to know what it was. She needed guidance after all. As soon as she pushed the button, the object popped out of the dormant state and then turned into a long fancy staff. The people were quite intrigued to see this happen. Some of them wondered about how far technology had come. Then, the murmurs started to die out. This was the crucial time. It was the time for Sheiley to choose Mr Campus. It was quite an obvious fact at this moment. Even a blind person would tell who Sheiley
The whole place went into turmoil following what Anna had just done. This was unbelievable! No one could find the perfect reaction to express the shock and awe they were going through at that moment. It felt like magic. It felt like a sort of mythical orchestration. Cory was lost, too. He couldn't even catch his breath, let alone choose the appropriate action to reply to what had just happened. Anna was still kissing him, and she wasn't acting like she was going to be done anytime soon. It didn't seem like a mistake. It seemed like something she had been planning for quite a while now. It was beyond marvel. He could hear the people gasping and saying all sorts of things. He didn't really care about what the people were talking about. He was only trying to get a grip of himself. Harry's eyes had turned pale at the sight of this. It would seem as though the land had opened beneath him, and he wanted to disappear into it. His legs were shaking, and the staff had dropped from his ha
"I think I'm going crazy today.""This cannot be happening.""I'm developing severe headaches right now.""My head would explode from all of this.""I think I need to visit a psychologist."More and more confusion followed every scene that unfolded on the stage. Whenever people think things can not get any crazier, it just takes another turn of ridiculousness. The majority of the students could not take this any longer. They just couldn't come to terms with what the hell was happening. "She didn't only ask him to be Miss Emerald City. She also wants him to be her boyfriend?""In few words, are you saying that Cory the loser would be the boyfriend of Miss Emerald City?"The more the students dug into the words, the crazier it made them. This was nothing close to any frame of sanity. Harry was walking towards the both of them. He had had enough of this. This can not be happening. "I think there must be a sort of mistake here." Harry announced as he got to them. All attention shifte
Cory followed Anna from behind. He didn't think twice before making the decision. He took about a few steps and then turned to look at Harry again. Harry's face had turned red. He was so lost in his head. He wasn't really sure of what to do at this moment. He was conflicted. When Cory realised that Harry was staring at him especially, he moved his other hand to the backside of Anna. He placed his arm around the waist of Anna, making sure that his arm rested on her big backside. He was sure to catch the reaction of Harry as soon as his arm rested on the backside of Anna. Harry's eyes almost popped out of his head. The rage building in the depth of his body was so evident on the surface that he almost passed out. His hands were fisted as though he would punch Cory through the air even though that was remotely possible. Cory's gaze shifted from Harry to Sheiley. Sheiley's jaws were still hanging loosely in the air. She couldn't choose the right reaction. She didn't even know how to
Harry had gotten to them, but he was yet to make a comment. He stood there watching them as they hugged. Before he could realise, Shieley had run out of the building too to meet him. She was worried that he must have run off. Sheiley ran to meet him. "Harry. What are you doing here?" She asked, her face brewing a shot of rage. Today was a big day for her. She had just been crowned as Miss Campus. Harry should be by her side. Not only as Mr Campus but also as her boyfriend. How hard could that be, right?Also, one of the many reasons she had run out was to see Cory. She couldn't believe everything that the anchor of the party had said. It was just way too good to be true. Her presence made Harry turn. Also, the words she had spoken alerted Cory and Anna. They stopped hugging. Cory was the first person to look. As soon as he saw Harry, he grunted in displeasure. "Do you ever give up?" Cory muttered, giving Harry a weary look. After everything that had happened. Anna had just anno
