Everly spotted Anna by her locker. The class she had before their lunch period was a lot closer to Everly's locker, where they met every day before lunch. So, Anna was always there before Everly was. "Hey, Anna!" Everly greeted her.
Immediately, Anna turning her head at Everly. "Hey, Everly." Anna shoved her books into her locker, "I have waffle for our lunch today."
Anna closing the door of her locker, "Anna!" A girl called Anna, poking Anna's shoulder, stopping in front of them.
Everly turned to Anna. "You know her?" Everly asked, raising an eyebrow.
"She is Rose, my classmate." Anna explained, pushing Rose gently forward.
Rose frowned at Anna, nudging her elbow, as Anna gave her an assuring smile. "She'll like you, don't worry." Anna assured her.
"H-Hi, I'm Rose. Nice to meet you?" She gave Everly small smile, holding her hand out for Everly to shake.
Everly smiled, "I'm Everly. Nice to meet you too." She took her hand.

Everly was walking to the electronic store after school, she smiled lightly. She went to buy a polaroid camera.
After she bought the polaroid camera that she wanted, she walked right back home quickly.
When Everly got to her house, she changed in to a casual attire of jeans and a pink t-shirt. "I'm coming my prince." She whispered.
Everly went to the park near her house, she smiled so brightly. She entered the park and sat on the bench she used to sit on.
She fixed her gaze on a man sitting on the ground under a shady tree reading a novel while listening to music with his earpiece.
She was taking pictures with her new polaroid of him secretly without he knew it.

"Where have you been today? You didn't show up at school." Everly asked, as she placed the phone to her ear.
There was a long pause on the other line, "I've got a fever now, Everly." , Everly could hear Anna's weakly voice.
Everly exhaled a deep breath, "I'm sorry. Get well soon Anna." Everly whispered.
"Thank you, Everly."
Everly hung up on Anna.

Everly sighing, she trudged made her way to the cafeteria.
She entered the cafeteria and looked around for an empty bench, because it would be full at lunchtime.
Finally, Everly made her way towards to left of the cafeteria, where she spotted empty bench across a man.
"Can I sit here and join you?" Everly asked at him.
He stared up at Everly for a long moment. Everly frowned, still standing in front of him, waiting his response.
"Of course," he smiled, as pushing his eyeglass up to the bridge of his nose.
She slid in the empty seat across him. "My name's Everly, and your name is?"
"I'm Aldrich." He said politely.
Aldric's prime manner was rather humble put Everly at her ease.
"I have a friend, his name is Maxime. I'll introduce him to you if you want." Aldric offered.
Everly nodded.

Everly is in the park right now with Aldric and his friend, Maxime.
They sharing stories, jokes, and laughter, forget about their problems.
Everly looked at the digital clock on his phone. "I have to go right now." Everly said, she made sure to pack her things extra quickly.
"We're could take you home." Aldric offered her.
Everly gave him small smile, shaking her head. "It's fine. Have fun."
Everly hailed a cab. The cab finally came to a stop on the corner of the park near her home.
Everly walked quickly into the park to see the stranger man who had made her insane over the past few months.
