'Something is going on with Lucia'.
..Yes, that statement rang in his head again after the boy said it, he wanted to know what was going on with Lucia immediately.
With widened eyes, he inquired, "What is going on with Lucia? Tell me".
The boy sighed, didn't say anything for some seconds, then he voiced out,
"I know you might find it hard to believe what I'm about to say, but you just have to believe it 'cause it's the truth. I've been noticing Lucia with a certain boy, he's handsome. It's been some time now since I've been noticing them together, but I've been keeping my mouth shut,
Not until I noticed them together yesterday that I decided to tell you. What I'm telling you is the absolute truth".
The boy close to Lucia was just glancing at the other guy with his mouth opened in awe, he was really surprised by what he'd heard just now. It took him seconds before he could open his mouth to speak,
"You really mean what you're saying?".
