Chapter 99 Would you like to join us? (1/2)

”Thank you, Harry,” Ryn took back her bag and thanked Harry. Finally, she was done handing all the assignments to the lecturers.

”It's okay. How about lunch together?” Harry suggested. He followed her handing her assignments, smiling sheepishly when some of the lecturers noticed him.

Ryn rubbed her stomach. She did not even notice how late it was. No wonder she was feeling empty. She nodded.

He grinned even wider. Without thinking, he took her hand.

They did not notice the gasp from everyone around them.

Maybe they were so used to having everyone looking at them whenever they go. Ryn, especially, as she was used walking on the runway with every pair of eyes gazing at her.

”Which restaurant you want to go?” he asked, already busy remembering every single restaurant around the place. Where should he bring her?

”Cafe?” she was too hungry to even care. The nearest food source would be cafeteria and that is where she wanted to go.

”Cafe?” his face fell. Why did she not want to go to a proper restaurant? Heck, he even could spend thousands for the 3 to 5 stars Michelin food!

Not knowing what inside his mind, she nodded. She even, without waiting for him, started to walk toward the cafe. She was too hungry, so starving to even care what others think. Why should she?

He followed behind her, this time slowly. He did not like the idea of having 'date' in the cafe. He was not looking down on the cafe's food but the dissatisfaction came because he wanted to treat her the best food.

He was no liking this. Not at all.

Both of them entered the cafe. She led the way. He took almost a minute after to enter the building. Instead of looking for a place to sit, her eyes looked around. What should she eat today?

She finally chose fried rice, sweet and sour ribs, fried chicken, popcorn chicken, soup and fried bread. for drink, she chose watermelon juice and plain water.

Harry who did not notice Ryn's 'shopping spree' only chose wantan mee and iced Americano. He found an empty place to sit and wait.

He waited... and waited. He started to frown when Ryn was still at the stall. What took her so long? Was she undecided what to eat and was still thinking?

He started to stand up but a group of girls approached him. His face changed. This was the reason why he was not happy to have lunch here!

”Hi, Harry. Alone? Can we sit here?” Jane asked bashfully.

Her friends threw a shy smile at Harry. Their hands were holding a tray of food, mostly some sort of smoothies and a bowl of vegetables. Some even only have a carton of yogurt and a few slices of fruits.

”Actually, I am here with someone,” Harry cleared his voice and spoke.
