Alexis and Adrian walked together to enter the cafeteria area in they’re campus. Choose one of the empty benches that are right under a tree that is quite shady in there. They had just finished college in classes, and Alexis decided to get an order a fresh one drink in there. “Would you like me to help order a drink over there?” Adrian asked Alexis who had been sitting on the bench for a while.
Alexis turned her head and looked at Adrian who was still standing in front there. "Sure. Of course, if you don't get mind of it." Alexis muttered in reply with a small smile on her face.
"Of course it doesn't matter. What do you want to drink right now?” asked Adrian as he put his hands in his pants pockets right there at this very moment.
"Um... I thought I'd just like a chocolate milkshake." replied Alexis while resting her chin on the palm of her right hand which was placed on the table.
Adrian nodded his head slowly and smiled back at Alexis right there. "Okay. In that case, you have to wait a moment in here, okay? I'll order it right away." Said Adrian who immediately walked towards one of the drink stands in the canteen.
While Alexis glanced briefly at Adrian's back in silence. Before starting to look at her and slightly lowering her gaze towards the table over there. Alexis took a deep breath in there. Remembering that ever since she and Adrian left the castle, Alexis appreciated talking a lot. She still felt so confused. Subconsciously, Alexis grasped the scarf she wrapped around her neck. Of course, to look for a surprising symbol suddenly appeared in the former Adrian. Alexis herself did not even know where the symbol came from in her body. Or Adrian who didn't even ask her about it at all when asking for a scarf on that sunny day today. And even so, Alexis felt so quite grateful, because Adrian didn't ask her about anything of that. Because it is certain, if Alexis will never be able to answer it right away. Besides, Alexis herself wasn't very good at lying either. She would be very easy to read if she lied to someone in the end. And Alexis remembers that if Adrian is a vampire, then maybe Alexis will find it easier to read minds and hearts.
"Hi, Alexis!"
Greet someone there who immediately made Alexis lift her head and look at the person who had just called her name. Liliana. The one who called out Alexis' name over there was Liliana, who was currently walking towards her with a second looking fast pace there. "Hi, Liliana..." Alexis greeted back with a smile on her face right now.
Not long after that, Liliana sat in front of Alexis and placed the bottle of bottled drink in her right hand right on the table. And took out a map containing sheets of paper from his bag. "Where's Adrian?" Liliana suddenly asked while looking at Alexis.
Alexis raised her eyebrows before turning her head and pointing the index finger on her right hand towards the drink, where Adrian who seemed to be still ordering drinks for her. “Adrian was there, ordering some drinks for us. What's wrong?" Alexis asked curiously while looking back at Liliana who was in front of her.
“I want to hand over this sheet. You know? Extra work for good grades on business class... I mean of course for the organization that I had too. But yes, enough to give satisfaction to me at all.” Liliana answered in a tone of voice that sounded joking over there. While taking a piece of paper from the folder he brought there. Then give it to Alexis.
Alexis received the sheet of paper and studied it carefully there. It is a brochure. “All of the college students must have to come to the fair. Tomorrow is the show of the fair. Around seven in the evening, if I remember about that. And yes, there will be a lot of things in there tomorrow. Starting from various kinds of games, various kinds of attractive prizes, food and drinks, and many other things in there.” Liliana explained.
“Wow… that sounds pretty fun for me.” Alexis muttered as she placed the sheet of paper on the table. "But I don't know if I can take time off from my work tomorrow night." Alexis looked at Liliana with a slight frown on her forehead.
"Of course you can. And you will be. Should be able to come to the fair tomorrow. You've been working at the restaurant for quite some time, so it shouldn't be a problem if you ask for just one day off. Because you never get some time relax like once after a years... Okay?" said Liliana in her voice that sounded serious right there right now.
Alexis let out a small groan. “Oh my… I really want to go. It's just that, Mr. Joseph, my boss at the restaurant is pretty strict, so I still have no clue if I can go or not tomorrow. Do all students really have to come to the fair?” Alexis asked with a mumble.
Quickly, Liliana nodded her head there. "Yes. Must have. If someone doesn't come, then, of course, there will be a new fair, but students who don't come are the ones who have to open a booth at the fair.” Liliana replied explaining.
"Oh my..." Alexis mumbled again and closed her eyes for a moment there. She was silent for a while, before finally letting out a slow breath, and nodding hier head in a faint motion. "Okay. I will try. Besides, I haven't been to the fair in for quite a while. So, hopefully Mr. Joseph allowed me to take a day off tomorrow.” Alexis answered in the end there.
It instantly made Liliana smile widely. "Good. Then, I have to go to the other students. And don't forget to tell Adrian too. Otherwise, the freshman will be required to open a booth at the next fair.” Liliana said as she put the folder back into her bag and chuckled.
Alexis also laughed at what Liliana had just said there. "Okay, I'll tell Adrian too later." Alexis replied while nodding her head quickly. Still with a big smile on his face.
"Okay. I'll go first right now. So see you tomorrow." Liliana said as she stood up from the bench and went to the other student seats in the cafeteria.
Alexis looked back at the leaflet in her hand more carefully. She felt very excited to be able to come to the fair. Considering that she really needed some entertainment after working non-stop all this time at the restaurant. She probably really needed some entertainment at the fair. What's more now, she has Adrian that she can go out with. “What is it Liliana coming here just right now?” Adrian, who had just arrived from ordering drinks, surprised Alexis there.
"Oh my God, Adrian, you startled me like again." Alexis muttered as she placed the paper on the table.
“Sorry… you startled so easily by my arrival, Alexis.” Adrian muttered as he placed the glass of chocolate milkshake he ordered for Alexis there. With a big smile on Adrian's face, he sat down opposite Alexis.
“That's because you always come all of a sudden. And oh yeah, Liliana only handed me this brochure earlier.” Alexis replied with a slight frown on her face, while handing the leaflet to Adrian there.
Adrian slowly took the leaflet from Alexis and began to read it. Alexis stared at Adrian for a moment, as she began to take the glass containing her milkshake over there, and began to drink a little. “I don't know if I can come to the fair or not tomorrow. Because I have to go to work at restaurant in the times. However, I really wanted to go. And Liliana also said that all students on campus must come to the fair tomorrow. I'm so confused right now, Adrian..." Alexis mumbled with a worried expression on her face.
Adrian put the flyer back on the table, and looked at Alexis, still with a smile on his face. "Then let's go together. And don't worry about Mr. Joseph, I will help you to request leave from him. Tomorrow's fair could also be our first date, right?” Adrian answered while holding Alexis' palm there tightly.
Alexis' face instantly turned red. "A date?" HShe whispered with his face looking in disbelief at Adrian there.
"Yeah... a date. Remembering, since the two of us have been dating right now, we still haven't even gone on a date." answered Adrian softly.
“I-I… I've never gone on a date before.” Alexis whispered. Saying something that crossed in her mind right now. A nervous smile appeared on her lips in an instant. Her heartbeat was beating fast, and so was the rush of her breathing there.
"I also the same. I haven't been on a date in a long time… so, would you like to go on a date with me tomorrow at the fair?” Adrian asked expectantly there.
“Yes… I want to…” Alexis and Adrian widened their smile even more.
