Chapter 10：Andrew (2) (2/2)

It could be bad if Vera finds out I have a crush on Carolina!

”If I have a boyfriend, it is impossible every saturday night I am with you, ndre, you make fun of me!” said Vera while hitting my arm lightly.

”Hahaha, yes cheers! For fellow singles,” I said, raising my glass which immediately sounded ”clang” when Vera knocked her glass against mine.

Time passed, even though Carolina still seemed cold, but my feelings for her were getting bigger.

What's more when it's my birthday and she chooses to say it directly with a smile. Her sweetly raised lips and her voice that melt my heart said, ”Happy birthday, Andrew.”

Only those three words, three words that make me always happy in a year, also three words that I look forward to every year.

I don't know if this is just love or obsession, but I feel an unpleasant feeling when I see her chatting and smiling at other men. What's more for Dion, who joined our group in semester 4.

In semester 4 there are courses that require us to be in groups of six people. These courses are courses that are prerequisites for courses in semester 5, after that courses in semester 5 are prerequisites for courses in semester 6, and it continues until Job Training and Final Projects

Because the three courses in semester 4, 5 and 6 are related and held by the same lecturer, the group will remain in the following semester. So if one person fails the previous course, all members of the group will fail.

Maybe this is what is meant by ”togetherness” which is always emphasized by the senior when we are in student orientation in semester 1.

In semester 4, our group almost failed. Because we, who are newbies, who are still level 1 and have basic skill, have to fight a level 20 boss dungeon. But Carolina, who is the leader of the group, managed to bring us a group of friends to defeat the boss.

Of the 10 existing groups, only 5 groups passed the course. 2 groups of which are groups from the senior

Maybe this is also what people say that the difficult period during college starts from semester 3 and 4. If you can get through that semester, the next journey will be smooth and you only have to face the Final Project as the last stage in the lecture period.

Having to be in one group for 3 semesters made us finally close to our group friends, Dion, Clara and Riko.

Luckily Riko doesn't seem interested in Carolina, but it seems different with Dion. It really makes me dislike seeing them together and sometimes Carolina laughs with jokes that I think are really bad.

But I can't do anything. Carolina is not my girlfriend, and I dare not ask her to be my girlfriend.

My confidence as Andrew Bagas just seems to collapse.

Usually the women who are cold to me will change when they find out my identity, but not Carolina.

After knowing my identity, she still treated me the same as before she knew my identity. It made me fall in love with her even more.

But I'm afraid.

I was afraid that she would reject me and that our situation would become too awkward so we couldn't be together anymore even as a group mate.

I have known Carolina since I was 18 years old, at first I thought I was afraid to express my feelings because I was young at that time.

But after turning 19, I still didn't dare to express my feelings. Feelings of love for her.

I am more and more convinced of my feelings when Dion is among us, I don't like seeing Carolina with Dion!

I'm jealous!

I am now twenty years old. But I still don't have the courage to say it.

Time flies until it doesn't feel like there are only 2 semesters left. We will graduate. That means only one more year we will be together.

I finally made up my mind to express my feelings.

Maybe on the beach watching the sun set?

Because Carolina would absolutely refuse to ask her out at night for a romantic dinner, and it would be very strange to ask her to the beach together without any other reason.

I decided to do it right on my birthday.

Even though it was very difficult to ask the old man's permission when I said I wanted to make my birthday in Bali with my college friends. Well, at least I decided to invite the others. After all, they were friends with my struggles from the fourth semester.

Finally i turned 21 years old. It's been almost 3 years I don't dare to express my feelings.

Now is the time for me to be brave and tough enough to face everything. Even though that something is an unpleasant situation, right?
