Novel Bin Chapter 23 - The Commotion
Adrianna and Okashi moved closer to see what the cause of the commotion was. Holding their ice creams, they stood behind the crowd. Adrianna was so busy wiping ice cream off her olive green shirt that she hadn't noticed the source of the commotion. All of a sudden, Okashi shrieked. She nudged Adrianna, and pointed to the boy who was the cause of the commotion, saying, "Look! It's my dream boy. He is so handsome. He could easily sweep me off the floor."
Adrianna looked up and saw him again. He seemed to be enjoying all of the attention from the girls who were surrounding him. He was accompanied by Keisha and two more very handsome boys who were just as tall as he was. One of them had blue eyes and blonde curly hair that fell to his forehead, while the other one had straight black hair that was neatly combed back. Keisha was clinging to his arms while wearing a shift dress that accentuated her curves.
Adrianna was thrown off when she saw them in the administration wing. Why were they here? She also wondered how come she couldn't pick up his smell. It was strange. Was something happening to her?
So many girls surrounding someone in the administration wing had never happened before, but she had to admit that all four of them looked surreal. For a moment, even she had been mesmerized by their beautiful looks, but she had controlled herself and looked away.
Meanwhile, Okashi, who was creating a lot of noise along with other girls, nudged Adrianna again. "Adrianna, he is so good looking. I am going to introduce myself. You wait right here!"
"Okashi, no! Are you mad? Why are you stooping so low? You gave me a huge list on what to look for in a partner, and now look at you!" said Adrianna, trying to pull her away from there. She was already finding it too awkward to stay near him for even a minute longer. Read lat𝙚st chapters at nov(𝒆)lbin.com Only
But Okashi pulled her hand away, and stepped inside the crowd, much to Adrianna's embarrassment. Okashi pushed everyone aside and made a beeline to the blonde in the circle. She looked at him with adoration and said, "Hi, I am Okashi…"
Adrianna gaped at her stupid friend for practically throwing herself at that boy. She was even more surprised when he held her hand and squeezed it hard, "Hi, I am Nate." He spoke to her as if he had become breathless just by looking at her.
Adrianna sighed a breath of relief. All this time, she had been thinking that Okashi was crushing on him, but she had gone for the blonde guy. Then, she thought, "What is there to be relieved about? He already belongs to someone else." She was beginning to get confused with him around.
Adrianna shook her head and was about to leave when out of the corner of her eye, she noticed that he was gazing at her intently. Keisha become extremely jealous when she saw them look at each other, even if it had been just for a moment, and her brows knitted. Adrianna controlled her thoughts as she turned around and walked out of the building, leaving Okashi. She threw the ice cream in the trash can. She had suddenly lost her appetite.
While exiting, she heard two girls talking. "They were just admitted into the college. All of them will be joining the humanities department."
"That's nice! There will finally be some spice in our mundane college," said the other one excitedly. "Which courses are they talking?"
"I think they are all taking philosophy."
"No…" The second girl's face fell. "I am in history, and my wing is so far away…"
"Well, you could always swing by the philosophy department whenever your classes are over," replied the first one before they both laughed.
Adrianna was angry. She was just on the verge of controlling her emotions about him, and now they would be attending the same college. The situation was just getting better and better!
She decided to stay as far away from the four of them as possible. The fact that they were philosophy majors meant that she would hardly interact with them anyways. Thinking that he was already with Keisha, she wanted to be in control of her emotions. She didn't want to be labeled as that "cheating" girl.
By now, Adrianna had walked a good distance away from the administration wing. She looked at her watch and was shocked to find that she only had five minutes left before the start of her next lecture. She sprinted to the wing and entered the classroom, only to find that the lecture had already begun.
