Jennie was a bit frustrated with Ezekiel, the guy was trying to be a gentleman just like those silly guys in some mushy romantic movies. She sent a message through her phone to Ezekiel.

Jhen-Jhen: Hey, jerk, what are you trying to do when you told her that you will wait until she remembers you? Are you an idiot? Let's say she never regained her memory of you at all. Are you willing to wait until all your hair turned white?!
69Please respect copyright.PENANAd1L3xt2PK4
She waited for a moment before a sound notification was heard.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAtnuH43RFfK
Ezekiel: I can't force her to remember me. She will just be confused. I'm willing to wait.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAtohKPy39Xx
Jhen-Jhen: With how you said it, I'm pretty sure you don't know anything about how to pursue a girl. What kind of mushy movie do you get this line from? The girl was already confused. Reality is different from the fictional delusions of some romantic writers.

It didn't take a minute before another message was received.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAwHK9KTsDSK
Ezekiel: Then, what do you propose I should do, love expert?
69Please respect copyright.PENANAt4esBYZYZT
Love expert my foot!
69Please respect copyright.PENANAEjMHVnNqlE
Jhen-Jhen: Don't make fun of me. Just tell her who you are and what you did before! If she was not able to remember, then so be it. If she starts to remember you then, Hallelujah! Your luck is well inherited from your ancestors.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAPf4eK4nCNt
The guy on the other side of the phone has the urge to laugh.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAHiwJb4YfoC
Ezekiel: Then, thank you for your well-said advice. I'll be sure to uphold your teachings.
69Please respect copyright.PENANALhylTf0JJS
Jennie snorted. She was not in the mood to deal with a lovesick jerk.

The next day, Ezekiel planned to take the advice, given by Selene's best friend. He was well aware that he didn't have a clue what to do in this kind of situation. But advice from a friend will help him a lot. So, he asked Selene again for a date. They settled to go this coming Sunday. He decided on a movie first and then eat dinner together. Selene made a heads up not to pick a fancy restaurant, a normal restaurant will do. He assumes she doesn't like an intimate setup since they are still on the stage of getting to know each other.

The days to their second date went fast, and it was Sunday. Selene picked a floral dress and a light pink-colored blazer, sandals with kitten heels, then she put her hair into a ponytail. She used a glittery hairpin to hold her bountiful and silky, long black hair.

Ezekiel was waiting outside her dorm. They decided to go by 5 pm. They first go to and see a movie, they chose the latest sci-fi movie with good reviews by far. They settled in their seats and quietly watched the movie.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAMHq3HNnCOH
After almost 2 hours...
69Please respect copyright.PENANASZymiqB1wH
"Do you like the movie?" Ezekiel asked. They had already left the movie theater.
69Please respect copyright.PENANA4JTWNYKaOC
"It's fine, the actress was so-so, but most of the actors are handsome," Selene said.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAQP94kadZ4C
Ezekiel didn't know what to say. So, all the time she was only paying attention to all the handsome actors?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAbeuCSYpcnY
He suggested that they go to a restaurant for dinner before they ran out of seats.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAj9PooCzYQ4
Luckily, they were on time and were able to secure the last table in a Thai restaurant. Selene was craving for something exotic taste, and it's been a while since she and Jennie eat Thai delicacies.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAyWgnDxxO7S
They made their order and made small talk.
69Please respect copyright.PENANApu6mz5bAMz
"So, I was meaning to ask you this. I just don't know how to..." Selene started.
69Please respect copyright.PENANA5c4aGPY2R6
Ezekiel stopped eating and looked at Selene.
69Please respect copyright.PENANA9HFamHFrna
This focused look of his made her even anxious to open her mouth and ask. But then she toughened up and let out her question. "Am I the girl you are talking about? The reason you came back?
69Please respect copyright.PENANARDTYCB0Qn9
Ezekiel was still looking at her intently, not changing his expression. She felt ashamed of herself. "I just thought something. If you are friends with Jennie, then I should know you as well. After all, according to Jennie, we've been best friends since childhood."
69Please respect copyright.PENANABGO5f2S7wv
Ezekiel still thinks that telling her everything is still not a good idea. It will only confuse her.
69Please respect copyright.PENANAmTerwPM4ue
"Apart from that, I had a dream last night about you."
69Please respect copyright.PENANAAlcc1NmR2u
"Really?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAIh5VWcXyO7
Selene was relieved when the guy in front of him finally reacted.
69Please respect copyright.PENANA9lr13eFoAM
"We are indeed childhood friends, me, you, and Jennie. We attended the same middle school. I was only a grade above you. Back then, you were always following me..."
69Please respect copyright.PENANA66zz7E7tpc
"What?! I'm following you?!" Selene can't believe what she's hearing? Never in her life, as she became interested in the opposite sex and follow a boy in middle school. "Are you serious? Maybe you are just mistaken. Are you perhaps referring to Jennie?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAfKVekwh7z7
Ezekiel laughed. "No, I'm pretty sure you are the cute little girl who followed me everywhere. Are you surprised?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAqNntkge6Nt
"I am. I can't believe I'm like what you described to me before! How did that happen? Why?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAht8LrsI6RM
“It happened on the first day of school. You are in first grade. I returned your handkerchief, then the next morning you started following me. You've been following me for almost 5 years."
69Please respect copyright.PENANADnUPS62QnD
Holy?!
69Please respect copyright.PENANAPEl81ac8OZ
"And then? I'm sure I confessed to you, didn't I?"
69Please respect copyright.PENANAKmJIT3MiCh
"Yes, in sixth grade, you confessed to me. But I rejected you."
