That night, Jennie noticed that Selene returned absentmindedly. This triggered Jennie's mother's instinct.

She directly called Ezekiel since he voluntarily gave his phone number to her. The moment Ezekiel picked up the phone, a piercing scream was heard on the other side of the line.
77Please respect copyright.PENANA5tScGChhJL
"What the f*ck?! What did you do to my best friend, you jerk!" Jennie screamed, making sure that she was almost kissing her phone to better let him hear her scream from the other line.
77Please respect copyright.PENANADFi9VSWsbj
Ezekiel was already in his dorm, but since he was also sharing the room with two other people, the screaming on the other line was heard by his two roommates. Ezekiel stood up from sitting in front of his computer and walked to the balcony.
77Please respect copyright.PENANABXsjPoq9Tn
"Hey, what happened? Is there something wrong with her?"
77Please respect copyright.PENANAtjXD5ULYcv
"You asked? What did you do to her is what I'm curious about. She returned to our dorm looking absentminded Did you?.."
77Please respect copyright.PENANAS8MQNihlBN
Ezekiel was aware of what the girl meant. "Relax, I'm not that kind of person. And besides, she can't even remember me. Do you think I will have the time to take advantage of her, and then what, ruin my plan?"
77Please respect copyright.PENANA7SZc5eI85S
Jennie digested what he said. Well, he's quite right. And if his goal is to let Selene remember him before pursuing her, then what's the point of taking advantage of the girl? It will only leave a bad impression on him. Well, she’s now fully convinced that nothing unexpected happened. "Then why does she look dumber than ever? What did you tell her?"
77Please respect copyright.PENANAh0I4elAg1c
Ezekiel raised his eyebrow. Dumber? Selene's friend was quite the savage type, even with her best friend.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAkfzHFmpupD
"I told her that I rejected her when I was in sixth grade."
77Please respect copyright.PENANAgTOC7smxPF
"You what?" Jennie can't believe that this guy will listen to her. "You are a good student. You followed what I told you. Don't you think you are very straightforward?"
77Please respect copyright.PENANAacJHEDcc20
"I can't do anything about it. I've wasted enough years. I need to correct my mistakes."
77Please respect copyright.PENANAiWm8jWS372
They end the call after Ezekiel asks for Selene's phone number.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAfrGFSV4Dsz
Jennie takes a wild guess based on what he told her. What could be a mistake he was talking about? She remembered before that she was sure that Ezekiel liked Selene just as much as Selene does. It clearly shows how protective he was towards Selene. She remembered when they were in fifth grade, the envious brat of a girl had a crush on Ezekiel and pushed Selene into the deep pool. Selene was not a good swimmer. Ezekiel came to the rescue. After that, Jennie was sure that Ezekiel liked her best friend. So when Selene came to her house crying she was shocked. What could have gone wrong?

On the other hand, that night Selene couldn't sleep. The thing that she learned that afternoon shook her. When she regained consciousness in the hospital a year ago, she didn't have any recollection of her past. Gradually, her memory from when she was young was coming bit by bit. But the thing Ezekiel told her was never in those memories that she recovered. Why was it hard for her to remember? She was in deep contemplation when her phone lit up. She received a text message. it came from an unknown number. She knitted her eyebrow, but still opened the message.
77Please respect copyright.PENANA61dJCBjUHu
Are you okay?
77Please respect copyright.PENANACXETXSH5pm
Selene looked at the message intently without moving. Then another text message came.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAp5MDgW7kby
This is Ezekiel.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAsnGDUv1aZk
Her eyes flickered. Then she hit reply and started to compose her message.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAwFoKHtMbtC
Selene: Yes. I'm okay. Why?
77Please respect copyright.PENANAzc999tFJ60
Ezekiel: Jennie called to scold me. She's pretty worked up.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAeY2Ri4HJGW
Selene can't help but let a small smile slip through her red lips. Yes, it does sound like Jennie will do.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAZT59bGdf8w
Selene: I'm okay. I'm just trying to absorb what you said this afternoon. I wanted to remember everything when I was in middle school. Do you know how difficult it is to look clueless while everyone around you knows something you don't know?
77Please respect copyright.PENANAFkY7FMLXb1
Ezekiel: Don't rush it. Take your time.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAs29sbNafEM
Selene: Is recalling your face a good start?
77Please respect copyright.PENANAIhR4HOEOqM
Ezekiel: Yes. And much better. Even if you are not able to remember everything, it doesn't matter to me. We have a long time ahead of us to create more memories together.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAB1hp7Xp6Zr
Selene was stumped for what to say next. What do you mean by we have a long time ahead of us? It didn't take a minute before another message popped up on her screen.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAXRzr3ImdAO
Ezekiel: I will chase you until you say yes.

So, it's official; Ezekiel is pursuing her. And so, all the people in the university were able to know it. It was a hot topic in the university forum. The campus beauty and a campus heartthrob. Of course, it's not like everyone accepts the fact that two good-looking people in the university decided to date each other. The campus beauty has a huge amount of fanboys. While the campus heartthrob, though, has only stayed on the campus for only a month, already created a huge amount of admirers.

And so, no one can avert an incoming disaster…

"Oh, look at Trixie. Her face looked like she'd eaten something bitter," Rose said. They are in the cafeteria and having a nice lunch together.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAehFv8JylEc
"Of course, her face will look like that. After all, she's been bitter ever since our beautiful friend here was discovered dating the man of her fantasies," Jennie said while sneering. She doesn't like the cheerleader after all this b*tch snatched her blooming love earlier this year.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAAQjhd7HtGd
"Oh, look, miss bitter is going this way," Sara whispered while sipping her milk tea.
77Please respect copyright.PENANANgj06o1Vn9
The girl named Trixie stood in front of their table, looking as arrogant as always as she was alone, without her posse.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAtqBC2DLnvG
Selene looked up and stared wordlessly at her.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAOrm8E8Khgi
"Honestly, I can't see anything special in you. What does he see in you?" She asked, clearly trying to provoke Selene.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAAVf28TnjR0
This b*tch...
77Please respect copyright.PENANA2ldXedqhlR
"Well, aside from the fact that she has a beautiful face and body, she is also gentle and reserved. Of course, he would think she's special, unlike someone who can't wait to take off all her small articles of clothing so that he can see everything that is there to see in her." Jennie answered.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAzV4nQorbjK
Trixie looked at Jennie. "Nerd, I'm not talking to you." The girl arrogantly dismissed her.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAFYFOA7GGtE
WTF!!! Who's the nerd here?! Jennie wanted to jump this arrogant b*tch in front of her, but she restrained herself. But before Jennie could say something, Selene opened her mouth and let out a phrase.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAzAtcsPkAHy
"Insecurity is such an ugly word."
77Please respect copyright.PENANALX974onwZi
Jennie burst out laughing. She can't believe that her best friend would say such a thing looking all innocent and overly cute.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAoIXpzSrCHJ
"W-what did you just say?" Trixie became flustered out of embarrassment and raised her fist to strike the dumb-looking Selene.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAcOU6D0CIyd
"Woah. Hold it, I know you're insecure, but not her face!" Jennie said.
77Please respect copyright.PENANAmPVArSvjuQ
Sara and Rose tried to hold their laugh. Almost all the students in the cafeteria were watching the scene. When a man started walking right in the center of the scene.
