Can't Wait for A Dinner

Jenni is now on campus, as usual, waiting for her next course. Jenni waits quietly in the library while reading some books that catch her eye.

"Jen," said a young man who was now sitting beside Jenni.

Jenni, who heard the youth's greeting, immediately closed her book and turned her face towards the source of the sound.

"What's up, Edward?"

"Jen, can you help me after coming home from college?"

"What kind of help?"

"Accompany me to find a present for a mom like last year, you know for yourself I don't understand what things mom will like," said Edward, staring at Jennie as if begging.

"Mmm, okay ... so what auntie code you this time?"

"I don't know, Mom this year didn't give me any code," said Edward, remembering.

"We'll find out later."

"Thank you very much, Jen," said Edward happily. After that, Edward immediately got up from the bench next to Jenni.

Edward and Jenni have known each other for a long time, or rather they have known each other since the beginning of their time in college, and since then, they have been closed, friends.

Not long after Edward left Jenni at the library, Jenni got a phone call.

"Hello."

"Hi, Jen ... am I bothering you?"

"Mmm, no ... but I was in the library. I was out for a bit."

"Oh, okay .."

"So, what's the matter with you calling me?"

"I want to take you to dinner, can I?"

Jenni seemed to consider for a moment because she promised Edward to accompany him, looking for his mother's gift after school. At the same time, the lecture ends at 4 in the afternoon, will there be enough time to accompany Edward to find gifts later?

"What time is it, Daniel?"

"Mmm, How about seven tonight?"

"Where is it? Because after coming home from college, I will accompany my best friend to the Mall to buy gifts."

"Oh, then we eat at the Mall where you go ... I'll be there at 7 pm after my work has done."

"All right, let me know when you have come to the Mall later."

"Okay ... see you later."

"Hum."

After the conversation was over, Jenni hung up the phone.

Somehow, after the conversation with Daniel, there was a feeling of joy in Jenni's heart. She wanted to meet Daniel.

...

...

Knock Knock Knock

"Come In!"

Jack stepped into his superior's room, none other than Daniel's.

"What is wrong ?" asked Daniel softly.

'Is there something wrong with Mr. Daniel? Doesn't he usually speak so softly like this?' Jack muttered in his mind.

"Here, sir, I want to submit several documents that must be reviewed further by you, and copies that must be signed, sir," said Jack.

"Okay, I'll learn later ... oh Jack, I think I'll come home sooner than before ...."

Daniel pauses his sentence while glancing at the clock, perched on his arm.

"I'll be back at 6.30 PM later. You can also come home after I come home."

"Oh, fine sir," said Jack, nodding his head.

'Wow, this is an improvement for Mr. Daniel. Finally, Mr. Daniel respects himself more ... not too hard to go into his job as usual,' Jack muttered to himself.

"Sir, sorry if I'm guessing, this has something to do with Jenni, right sir?"

When Jack mentioned Jenni's name, both ends of Daniel's lips curved upwards.

Daniel just nodded his head in response to Jack.

"If that's the case, good luck, sir. I hope Jenni can become Mr. Daniel's partner," said Jack, happy with his boss's happiness.

"Thanks, Jack."

"Then, I will return to where I used to be, sir."

Daniel nodded his head as. Answer to his secretary.

Daniel never stopped smiling when he remembered that he would meet Jenni again today.

'Should I just tell her my feelings today?' monologue of Daniel in his mind.

...

...

Jenni's course schedule had just finished. Of course, Edward quickly came to Jenni's table.

"You're not going to cancel your promise, right, Jen ?" shrieked Edward enthusiastically.

"Hum, I promised you before, so I can't cancel it."

"Thank you, my dear friend," said Edward, hugging Jenni.

"Hei!!"

Edward just chuckled when he saw Jenni's expression that looked a little angry with him. But it didn't matter to Edward because he was used to Jenni's dislike of him hugging her and saying 'dear' as a temptation.

"Let's go, Jen," said Edward, pulling Jenni's arm.

Jenni turned her eyes lazily because her best friend's behavior was sometimes annoying for her.

Edward immediately pulled Jenni to his car because he knew very well that his friend did not take a private vehicle to his campus.

Jenni sat quietly beside the driver.

"Edward, when I finished buying your mother's gift, I'll leave," yelled Jenni to Edward.

"don't want to eat first after looking for a present?" Edward asked Jenni.

"No, because I'm having a dinner appointment with someone."

Edward seemed to be confused because his best friend never told him that he was close to someone.

"Who is Jen with?"

Jenni bites her lip for a moment before answering Edward.

"My new friend."

"Oh, I thought your new lover," said Edward casually.

Hearing Edward's words saying that Daniel was her new lover, Jenni's heart immediately beat fast, and her face flushed red.

"A ..- ah th..- that's of course not, we haven't known it for too long, how can he be my new lover," said Jenni stuttered while neutralizing her fast-beating heart.

Edward immediately glared at Jenni. He wanted to see the face of his friend, who had sounded stuttering when talking about the person she was going to meet tonight.

After examining Jenni's face well, Edward made a laugh reflex.

"What's wrong? Why are you laughing?"

Edward ignored her, but he still laughed and occasionally hit the steering wheel because Edward Jenni's face now looks funny.

"I think my best friend is in love."

'Is that funny? ... Ugh, I'm embarrassed, 'Jenni muttered to herself as she cupped her cheeks, which were now hot.
