My head's pounding . Last night's party is still echoing in my ears . I swear, one more drink and I'd be singing in the streets . Priya... you owe me .
I barely had time to process the hangover before I had to rush out the door . Classes don't wait for nobody, right? I grabbed a quick shower , threw on some clothes , and sprinted to lecture.
I slipped into the lecture room, scanning for a familiar... face 👀. Spotted Genevieve. Guess she's in this class too.
Professor Harrison's voice filled the room : "Alright, today's topic in Developmental Psychology...
Genevieve is taking Psychology, right?
Lizzy said to herself
Professor Harrison wrote "Attachment Theory" on the board l. Lizzy leaned back, interested .
Genevieve tuned in, thinking about her own psych classes . She glanced at Lizzy, wondering what she's really like .
Harrison asked for examples, Lizzy raised her hand .
Genevieve leaned in ...
Lizzy spoke confidently : "Bowlby's theory suggests attachment styles impact relationships... like how early bonds shape trust."
Harrison nodded . "Exactly! Secure attachments often lead to healthier relationships later."
Genevieve scribbled notes , curious about Lizzy's insight . Class discussion heated up .
Harrison smiled . "Interesting points! Time for a break. Back at 11 AM"
Class dismissed . Lizzy gathered her stuff , a hint of tension .
Genevieve approached, eyes locked 👀. "Guess you're not totally lost in Psych "
Lizzy smirked . "Unlike some people, I actually attend classes "
Genevieve rolled her eyes . "Ouch. Guess the claws are out "
Lizzy raised an eyebrow . "You started it "
Lizzy turned to leave . Genevieve matched her pace . "So, what, we're doing this now? "
Lizzy didn't look at her . "Doing what? "
Genevieve smirked . "The whole 'we hate each other' vibe "
Lizzy stopped, eyes cold . "You started it, Genevieve"
Genevieve glanced around the thinning crowd ... Ethan's empty seat caught her eye . "Huh. Ethan's not here "
Lizzy raised an eyebrow . "And?"
Genevieve's expression turned curious ...
Lizzy stopped, eyes flashing . "You think you can just call me 'trash' for coming to a class and walk away? "
Genevieve smirked . "I said you don't belong in places like that. "
Lizzy's gaze hardened 👀. "Places like what? "
Genevieve shrugged . "You know."
Lizzy turned to leave . Genevieve called out : "Don't bother trying to fit in."
Lizzy flipped her hair .
Genevieve turned her gaze back to Ethan's seat
Genevieve's brow furrowed . No number, no plan ...
She shrugged . Guess she'd catch him later.
Genevieve tucked her phone away , eyes scanning the hallway . Still no Ethan...
Lizzy walking awt, expression neutral Genevieve's gaze lingered .
Genevieve smirked . Plot thickens...
Genevieve leaned against the wall, watching Lizzy disappear into the crowd.
Priya appeared beside her . "Hey, what's up? "
Genevieve nodded toward the direction Lizzy went . "Lizzy vibes "
Priya laughed . "You two... gonna clash again? "
Genevieve grinned . "Guess so "
Priya chuckled . "You know, you and Lizzy are like fire and ice ."
Genevieve smirked . "Ice? More like drama queen ."
Priya playfully rolled her eyes . "Either way, save the show for the weekend ."
Genevieve raised an eyebrow . "What’s happening weekend? "
Priya smiled . "Party at Tayo's. You’re coming ."
Genevieve headed to the library , . Spotted buried in books .Genevieve looked up from her notes , eyes scanning the library, Spotted Amara in the corner, huddled with Lizzy .
luccy followed her gaze . "Amara's really working with Lizzy "
Genevieve's smirk returned . "Guess they're getting the project done "
luccy nodded . "Yeah, Amara's pretty invested in getting a good grade"
Genevieve shrugged . "Fair enough, we all need those A's "
Genevieve plopped down . "Studying hard, as usual "
Amara rolled her eyes . "Someone's gotta keep the grades up "
Genevieve's gaze lingered on Amara and Lizzy for a bit . "Guess we'll see how their project turns out "
luccy sipped her smoothie . "You think Lizzy'll go easy on her? "
Genevieve laughed . "Lizzy? No . Amara's gonna learn "
Genevieve leaned in . "Amara's got a tough taskmaster "
Kuccyy grinned . "Lizzy's gonna make her earn that A "
Genevieve nodded "Should be interesting "
Lizzy looked up, caught Genevieve's eye . Genevieve winked ...
Lizzy looking confuse on why Genevieve appear wherever she is
Genevieve leaned back . "Lizzy's such a perfectionist . I'm surprised Amara's still alive "
luccy laughed . "Guess Lizzy's got her claws out "
Genevieve smirked . "Yeah, Amara doesn't know what hit her "
luccy chuckled . "Guess that's a wrap for today "
Genevieve stood up . "Time to call it a day. See you, luccy
luccy waved . "Later, G "
