THREAD EIGHT: KIDNAPPED

“YOU know what, Meredith? While I was looking at you and Randal earlier in the canteen, I saw a spark,” Shanaia said out of the blue.

They are now under the Narra tree which has become their hangout place just behind their college building. The breeze is cold and clean, including the chirping of the birds which is nice to hear.

Meredith’s cheeks suddenly blushed. “S-spark? How did you say so?”

“Because the way you look at each other is different as if you’ve known each other for a long time.”

“Really?” she said in disbelief.

Marylex put her arms around him. “Do you like him?” she asked straightforwardly.

She looked down. “I-I don’t know.”

“But is it okay if I ship you two?”

“S-ship?”

“Hashtag, MereDall loveteam!” She even applauded in the air. “What do you think, Shan?”

Shanaia rolled her eyes at what Marylex said. “You’re so corny, you know?”

Marylex crossed her arms. “Me?! No way!” She narrowed her eyes at her. “Don’t tell me, you’re just jealous because you still admire Randall.”
