Chapter 471 - Cliché (2/2)

”What about it?”

”It's obviously a couple bracelet,” Lance declared, ”It isn't something girls normally wear.”

”Dang, Lance. How can you make a sweeping statement like that? And may I point out, that fine specimen is definitely not a normal person so ...”

”You wanna bet?” Lance asked with a smile, ”Whoever loses, must treat the other for two weeks.”

”Deal!”

”Are you sure, Mark?” Lance asked, ”Your luck is rather shitty.”

”Hah,” Mark replied, ”This is one bet I won't lose!”

They shook on it and then Mark said, ”And even if that is a couple bracelet, the fact is ... she is here, and so am I. The other person is not around ... Heh heh heh...”

”Hopeless,” Lance said, ”I'm here to see you crash and burn then.”

”Just you wait,” Mark declared, hitting his chest like some neanderthal, ”That woman will be mine.”

Lance didn't answer and simply shook his head.

The entire conversation was heard by a group of girls nearby.

One girl was having her back patted, as the other was saying, ”I'm sure it's nothing, Erica. You know Mark. Always chasing after girls he sees.”

”Why can't he be more like Lance?” Erica was complaining, ”Pauline, why did I have to fall for such a player like Mark?”

”That's still better than the unemotional block of wood like Lance,” Pauline replied, ”And Mark really isn't a player. He's just ... easily distracted.”

”Yes, but you don't have to worry, Erica,” another said, ”You're the Campus Belle. That title isn't easily won, for it isn't just beauty that gives you the title. It's your beautiful nature inside.”

Erica flipped her hair with her hand, nodding, ”Yes. You are right, Ethel. She's just an empty vase.”

Gaining back her confidence, she declared, ”Once I win it again this year, Mark's attention will focus on me.”

”Yes, yes,” Ethel agreed, nodding her head up and down like a chicken bobbing for food, ”Once you catch him, there's no way that he'll go.”

Glaring at the area Kay had left, Erica said, ”I believe we should give the new girl our very special welcome, right?”

All three gave a knowing smile.

Yes, ladies and gentlemen, that is how Kay's first day at College began. While she was busy thinking of studies and Kyle, a drama was already beginning to unfold.

I mean, come on. There is no way that an unprotected beauty like Kay would not be faced with the normal College drama cliché, right?
