Plan

The queens and Aya met in her house. They have always supported Aya in everything she does, like how she supports them in return. They are family in this place where strangers meet and stay. The fact that they like Gavin for Aya is a plus.
“How about showing Gavin your seductive side?” Dobbie suggested. The others agreed instantly.
“Seductive? Well, it could work, considering, that’s how I got him the first time.” Aya answered instantaneously.
“Oh, what a slut! You did?” Dobbie confirmed it to Aya. They all laughed at Aya who bared her initial strategy. “Tell me how you did it? You know if you and Jen fail, then I might have a chance with the hottie.” Dobbie added.
Aya blushed with her blunder; she became bashful in real life. “Well, we got this place all to ourselves, so it wasn’t really hard to provoke him. But outside and with Jen over there, it might be difficult.” She confessed.
“At least try, babe!” They encouraged her.
Aya sulk in her seat. She turned red just thinking about the times she seduced Gavin.
"Hey,hey, young lady! You need to get that out of your chest. You obviously have something to say." Dobbie teased Aya.
"Hmm, I once tried... I offered myself to him." She stuttered.
They all shrieked, wanting to hear more. "I'm sure he jumped you like a stallion." Harry said.
Aya wanted to be swallowed by the ground and disappear. "No... He rejected me."

Aya reviewed her flirting 101 book to try different ways of seducing Gavin. She even practiced her smile in front of the mirror to see which type of smile is more innocent. She was satisfied with her wardrobe choices, since she finds it just enough for Gavin's taste.
The next day, she went to Gavin’s shop. He was already working when she got there. He has three new employees helping him with his work. “Hey, Aya I’m sorry I can’t accommodate you today. I’m quite caught up.” Gavin apologized to Aya.
“It’s okay, baby. I’ll just cook lunch for you; let’s eat together when you take your break.” Aya smiled at Gavin before she turned her back, not even waiting for his reply, which is most likely a rejection. Good thing she practiced her smile. It stunned Gavin a few seconds before having the chance to stop her.
Aya looked into Gavin’s fridge and invented a meal that even she does not know. This is Aya’s talent since she moved out of her mansion. She can make something delicious out of anything. Gavin came just in time as Aya finished her masterpiece.
Gavin could not figure it out, but there was something extra alluring with Aya today. The way those stray fringe falls on her face is sexy. “Is it the scent of the food she’s cooking? Is it the cosplay-ish extra short apron she’s wearing? Or am I just imagining a domestic relationship with her right now?” Gavin could only exhale heavily for the excitement he could not show Aya.
The restraint he is doing is on another level. Aya took off her apron and served food on Gavin’s plate. Gavin did the same. He served Aya’s meal and smiled at her to thank her. The two chatted like a real couple, discussing how their day went.
Aya took out her phone and asked Gavin for a selfie with her. “Don’t worry, I won’t post our picture anywhere.” She said.
It made Gavin curious, because that was how she was before; she would always update her social media accounts. “Ahm, why?”
“Because, I ‘m selfish like that. I won’t share you with anyone else.” She said shamelessly.
Gavin almost choked on his food, hearing Aya’s pickup line. It satisfied her seeing the effect on Gavin. She kept her phone inside her pocket. Aya pouted her lips and her eyes squinted like she was ruminating about something.
“Come to think of it, I need to know. Are you a camera?” She asked again.
“Camera? What? Why?” The random question baffled Gavin.
“Because whenever I look at you, I smile.” She replied to Gavin.
Gavin burst into laughter. “That’s a good one. I like it.” Gavin nodded in approval.

Aya’s subtle approach to flirting with Gavin was more effective than the approach that Jen is doing. She is shamelessly offering her body to Gavin. It disgusted Aya, yet that is how she successfully got Gavin hooked with her in the first place.
He was hooked, but it never got him to stay. Needless to say she needs a new approach
She learned her lessons well the first round of her romance with Gavin. It will stir his interest, but it will not make him stay. Aya is sure her new technique is better. Though the past months went by smoothly, but the time they are together greatly decreased since Gavin gave them a schedule of a visit.
He said that the two women are not living their life the way they are supposed to because they are spending all their time with him. Aya is happy though that Gavin and Steven’s shop is booming.
“Aya it is time to step up your game.” Steven said to her.
“How? Tell me… Spill!” Aya was excited to hear the suggestions of her friends.
“Our shop is doing well. I am planning to host an overnight beach outing for us.” Steven was excited to announce it to his friends.
“I’m listening. How should I upgrade my plans?” She asked her friends.
George, the silent and grumpy one suddenly spoke his advice. “Be mad at him, avoid him and don’t talk to him.”
“Are you crazy? Are you destroying my chance with Gavin?” She blurted out. Dobbie tapped George’s shoulder.
“He is right, you’ve been spending been too much time with Gavin. It is time for him to miss you. This time, try to ignore him as much as you can. Then we can take it from there.” Harry winked at Cara like he has a plan laid out already.”
Aya was impressed with their plan, she could only hope that it would really be effective. She did what the boys told her to do. She tried her best to ignore Gavin and lessen the time she spent with him. Meanwhile, Steven volunteered to inform Gavin about the outing scheduled the following week.

“Bro, Aya is driving me crazy right now.” Gavin said to Steven. He messed his hair and dropped his head on his desk, like a little kid bored with his studies.
“What happened?” Steven asked Gavin, holding in his laughter, acting like he knows nothing.
“Aya, she’s being weird with me. I feel like she is getting tired of me. She’s actually avoiding me… I think.” Gavin looked so sad as he explained it to Steven.
Steven cleared his throat. “Well, I think you are right. She might be tired of chasing you. Bro, she’s not an average girl you can neglect like that, you know.” He explained to Gavin.
“Fu*k! Sh*t!” Gavin repeatedly bumped his head on his table.
Steven patted Gavin’s shoulders. “Don’t worry bro, I have a plan. Let’s celebrate our shops opening. A weekend outing by the beach… What do you think?” He asked Gavin.
“She might ignore me there, too. Would it make a difference?” Gavin still feeling defeated.
“Dude, that is entirely up to you. Prepare for the weekend.” Steven said before he left Gavin, contemplating for his next move.
