"you're talking nonsense Shine" I said, she was about to say something again about that man but luckily the food we ordered was served

but I can feel she was giving me a darting stare

I took a sip from my juice and ate up my pasta when she opened up again

"so tell me Fierce you are still not over him, am I right?" I looked up at her and gave her a small smile FOR THE FIRST TIME

"so tell me Shine, who's the lucky guy?" I asked

"you're changing the topic here, seriously Fierce?" I really wanna smack that machine gun mouth of her but then an anonymous guy came up to us

"Honey?" I saw how Shine face change, from intriguing to a shock face, if I were still the old Fierce I may have snap a picture of hers right now, I swear

"so, he's he?" I asked while smirking

"uh-ahhh yes! Fierce meet Fifth my fiance" she finally said after recovering from a shock

I must say she is still the skittish little shine I know and i'm glad she didn't change after all those years

"wait~ do you mean Fierce Andrea? the Fierce Andrea when we were still in high school?" Fifth asked shocked, o-kay? what happened to him?

"yes! the only one, the young, talented and smart only daughter of the Aentize Empire, my best friend" Shine said proudly

so what's shocking about that?

"have we met before?" I asked, he seemed familiar but I can't recall where we met

"uh-huh, i'm Fence Ivan Fritz Thuazon" he said, okay? I still don't remember him

"you still have that habit of your Fierce, being oblivious" Shine said while shaking her head but I just shooked my shoulders as if not caring at all

"the nerdy president of T.Empire High" wait...

oh I remember, the one who's Shine always stalking before, yes she's obsess with him. I dont even get what she like about him, except the fact that he's really smart

"ohh~ your long time crush, finally you got him, good for you" I said and set a small smile in my face

even though i'm called hearted, I can still show a little emotion.

"FIERCE!" Shine shouted embarrassingly

"what?" I checked the time on my phone and keep it at my pouch and I place a money on the table

"i'll pay for the bill, don't question now" I said and they just nodded

I looked at my friend who's now having a good time with her fiance, i'm happy knowing Shine is all grown up now

jealous? Nahh!

"I have to go now Shine, I still have an meeting to attend to, I wish I could stay longer but..."

"it's okay Fierce I understand, see you then" I smiled

"here's my number" I handed her the tissue where I put my digits and kiss her cheeks

"I have to go now, see you when I see you" I said and diverted my gaze on Fifth who's watching us

"take good care of my dear friend, hurt her and i'll hunt you" I threatened him and I felt Shine poked me softly, I even saw her face turned red

"i'm serious" I said

"of course I love Shine more than you know" he said and gave Shine a hug, I just smiled

"good then, so I have to go now, bye" after that I walk out of the restaurant and immediately went to the parking lot

MEANWHILE..

"she's so dull unlike when she was still in high school" Fifth said while they both watch Fierce went out of the restaurant

"yeah you're right, maybe that's the result of having no man by her side" Shine stated while drinking her juice

"wait, what? she's still single? so that explains everything why she's so cold. Maybe she need a rental boyfriend for that haha" Fifth said jokingly

"that gives me an idea! OMY honey you're such a genie" Shine said while pinching Fifth's cheeks

eventhough he was clueless of what she's thinking he just smile and laugh along with her

"wait! lemme call someone" Shine said and dialed someone

"Big brother" Fifth was shock of whose Shine just called

but the woman just retained her composure as if she's not excited or thrilled
