Assertive Alice

Rudy was on his way to school, while wondering what Jessica was talking about when they were having breakfast.

'How are things going with your girlfriend?' Jessica had asked.

Rudy was baffled after hearing that since he was not supposed to have a girlfriend when he was in high school. He was left curious as to who his girlfriend was.

'It must be someone whom I am close with, right? And the only girl I was close with in high school is… Alice. Even though we are not as close as we were when we were kids, but that's growing up for you."

While walking, Rudy spotted Alice at a distance, so he sped up and casually greeted her, pretending as if they ran into each other.

'Is Alice my girlfriend?' Rudy wondered. 'Obviously, I can't ask her that. I even checked my phone. I checked the photos, texts, but I couldn't find anything that would help me know who my girlfriend is.'

"Did you complete your homework?" Alice asked Rudy.
