Sorry Bestie, I Want Him Too(2)

Matilda’s POV“Matilda, walk faster! We’re going to be late!”I turned to look at Vanessa, who was walking ahead of me with her phone in her hand.“You’re the one who spent almost an hour choosing what to wear!”She turned around and stuck out her tongue at me.“And I looked good, didn’t I?”I rolled my eyes. There was no arguing with Vanessa when she was in this mood.We arrived on campus and about twenty minutes later she had already taken more than ten pictures. I honestly didn’t understand how she did it.We were supposed to be finding our department, but Vanessa seemed more interested in taking pictures than locating our classroom.“Can we please focus on finding our lecture hall?” I asked.“Relax, professor. We have time.”“You said the same thing ten minutes ago.”“And we’re still alive.”I shook my head and continued walking. The campus was much bigger than I had imagined. Students were everywhere, some walking in groups while others sat under trees, chatting and laughing. A f

Matilda’s POV“I don’t spend my entire life reading.”She raised an eyebrow. “Really? When was the last time you went out with me?”I opened my mouth, then closed it.She pointed at me triumphantly. “Exactly!”“Where’s the party?” I sighed Her face lit up. “That’s my girl!”“I didn’t say I was going.”“But you asked where it was. That’s progress.”I laughed despite myself.Then she grabbed her phone and started showing me pictures of the venue.Apparently, some older students were organizing it at a popular club outside campus. The place looked very expensive.“Vanessa, how much is the entrance fee?”She waved her hand dismissively. “Don’t worry about it.”“Why?”“Because I said so.”I narrowed my eyes.“You’re not planning something strange, are you?”She looked offended. “Me? Never!”I stared at her. She lasted about three seconds before bursting into laughter.“Fine! I’ll tell you later.”I shook my head and picked up my book again.——————————————-When it was Friday evening, Vanes

Matilda’s POVVanessa smiled and wrapped her arms around him. “Marcus!”He kissed her cheek before resting a hand on her waist. I stood quietly, trying not to stare. So this was Marcus. The man Vanessa had been talking about and how he loved spending on her. She pulled away and turned toward me. “Marcus, this is my best friend, Matilda. The one I told you about.” He looked at me. For a moment, his eyes stayed on my face longer than I expected. Then he smiled. “Matilda.” “Hello.” He extended his hand, and I shook it. “Vanessa talks about you quite a bit.” I glanced at my friend. “Hopefully, she tells you the good things.”“Mostly.” He chuckled. Vanessa playfully hit his arm. “Marcus!” I laughed. He looked at me again. “So, you’re the serious one?” “I wouldn’t say that.” “No?” “I just have a lot to do.” “Such as?” “School, assignments, tests.” He nodded. “Important things.” “Exactly.” “That’s good.” I wasn’t sure what to make of him. He was polite, but there was

Matilda’s POV “Matilda, table six needs their order!” I quickly picked up the tray and turned toward the counter. “Coming!” It was Saturday afternoon, and the café was busier than usual. Customers filled almost every table, and I had barely had time to sit down since my shift started. I carefully arranged the drinks on my tray before walking toward table six. Working part-time at the café wasn’t exactly my dream job, but it helped me pay for some of my expenses without constantly asking my parents for money. Besides, I liked having my own money. Even if it wasn’t much. “Here you go,” I said, placing the drinks on the table. “Thank you.” I smiled politely before returning to the counter. My manager, Mrs. Collins, was standing near the cash register, checking some receipts. “Matilda, two gentlemen just came in. Can you attend to them?” “Of course.” I picked up two menus and turned toward the entrance. Then I stopped. For a moment, I wondered if I was seeing t

Matilda’s POV Curiosity got the better of me, and I opened it. My eyes widened. There was money inside. A lot more than I had expected. I quickly looked around, wondering if there had been a mistake. “Ma’am, did he leave this for me?” Mrs. Collins nodded. “He said it was a tip.” I stared at the money again. That was more than I usually earned in several shifts. “Are you sure?” “Quite sure. He specifically asked me to make sure you received it.” I swallowed. Marcus had left me a tip, avery generous one. I slipped the money back into the envelope and placed it carefully inside my bag. I didn’t know what to think. It was kind of him, certainly but it was also unexpected. I had done nothing special. I had simply served their food and answered their questions. Why would he leave me so much money? I shook my head. Perhaps wealthy people simply did things like that. I had no way of knowing.That evening when I got home, I was sitting on my bed when Vanessa called cause

Matilda’s POV(6) One Friday evening, I finished my shift later than usual. I was tired and my feet hurt from standing all day. I changed out of my uniform and came back into the café to buy a bottle of water before leaving. That was when I saw Marcus. He was sitting alone at a table, his jacket hanging over the back of his chair. His phone was beside him, and he looked like he had been staring at the same document for hours. He noticed me. “Matilda. You’re finished?” “Yes. I’m about to leave.” “Come and sit for a minute.” I hesitated. “Why?” “Because I want to ask you something.” I glanced toward the counter. My manager was busy with another customer. “I can’t sit for too long.” “I won’t keep you.” I should have said no. Instead, I walked over and sat opposite him. Then he turned his tablet toward me. “Tell me what you think about this.” I looked at the screen. It was a business proposal filled with figures, charts, and long paragraphs. I frowned as I bega
