Cynthia and Eilies were both a bit speechless.
"Hey, I've got no classes tonight. How about we go out for a stroll and grab some dinner? Rafael’s coming, and I’m so excited! I need to buy some cute outfits!" Cynthia exclaimed, rubbing her hands together, her eyes sparkling with excitement.
Eilies nodded in agreement.
Flora chimed in, "I can't join you tonight; I've already got plans."
Cynthia's face fell. A dorm outing just didn’t feel right without everyone. If Flora wasn’t coming, the fun would be cut in half!
"Who are you meeting? Your boyfriend?" Cynthia asked.
"No," Flora shook her head, "Just some friends. You remember Kaylee from the last time, right? She handed out the ROTC uniforms."
"Ah, okay," Cynthia said, sounding a bit disappointed.
Seeing their downcast faces, Flora thought for a moment and then asked, "Do you want to come along?"
"Can we?" Cynthia’s eyes lit up.
"As long as you're cool with it," Flora replied. She was worried they might feel awkward since they wouldn’t know many people there.
But she needn’t have worried.
Cynthia was outgoing and loved making new friends. The chance to go out, have a meal, and meet new people? Too good to miss! Flora’s friends were her friends too!
Eilies was more laid-back. She could chat with anyone, but deep connections were rare for her—except with Cynthia.
The three of them hopped into a taxi and headed to the hotel.
When they arrived, Kaylee and Dane were already there.
"Flora!" Dane called out warmly.
