Please Love Me novel Chapter 16

Zion and I met with Zyrine at the mall. We ate in a seafood restaurant, and it was nothing, but fun. We are now walking in the parking lot because it’s kinda late now.

"Thanks for the time Tricia..let’s meet again." Zyrine smiled at me.

"Sure! anytime. Thank you.." She walked near me to hug me.

"By the way Zi take care of Tricia ah?" She gave us a mischievous smile causing Zion’s cheeks to redden. Seriously?the mysterious guy Zion Drake Mercado blushing?

"You two look good together.."She added. I think it is now my turn to blush because of what she said.

I gasped when Zion held my hand. He’s just quiet in his seat while smiling as every time he looks at me.

"Thanks for joining us Tricia.."

I frowned because I can’t understand why Zi is acting like this. He’s so serious and mysterious, so it’s hard to understand him sometimes. Plus, it’s so rare to see him acting like this.

"No problem, Zi. It was fun."

"Thank you Tricia.." Zion looked away, then he went ahead as we reached home. I stopped when I remembered Enzo. He rarely comes with me now. I’m hoping that it’s not just Monica whom he is busy with.

I entered our classroom seeing my classmates minding their own business. I saw Sunny talking with her other friends. She immediately kisses my cheek when she sees me.

“Hey, Trish! Have you made a menu for the festival?” Crap! I totally forgot about that!

“Ahh..ehh..” What can I say to her? That I’m too busy thinking of my heartbreak that’s why I forgot about it? Gosh Tricia!

“OMG sis! Valedictorian of high school, but the mind is not in school?” Nice! And she just made fun of me!

“Fine! Sorry mom!” I sarcastically said to her.

My jaw dropped at what she said. This is ridiculous! What am I? Do I count the number of times they flirt?

“I’m sorry, but I can’t.” I seriously said.

"It's ok Tricia! I'm not coming then."

Wtf? What does she want to happen?

"Okay fine I'm coming.."

She slightly smirked when she heard me. What the?

"Okay. Then it's settled." She walked away, and I was left dumbfounded.

"Poor Tricia..you’re crazy." Sunny said.
