One More Night

Nicole received a call from her mother. She told her not to forget the time and place where she will meet her blind date.

A few days passed, and the day came on Saturday, which was the day of her blind date. When she woke up, it was past eight o’clock in the morning. She stretched her body before taking a bath.

When she came out of the bathroom she noticed that Jake was not there.

“Where did Jake go? Maybe he played basketball again?”

She said to herself. Then she put on her pants and simple blouse and adjusted a little.

While combing her hair, Jane called her on the phone, she answered it immediately.

“Oh, friend why did you get called?” she asked.

“No, just saying hello, isn’t your date today?” Jane asked her.

“Yes, I’m already dressed.” she answered.

“What time is it?”

“Ten-thirty.” she answered shortly.

“Ah, okay good luck with your date!” said Jane.

“Why are you still making me good luck? I really don’t want to go there!” Nicole frowned.

“Well, even if you don’t want to go, you can’t do anything right? Good luck and I hope you will like your date and it’s not ugly!” and Jane laughed on the other line.

“Tssk, bye bye!”

Nicole said goodbye and hung up the phone. She then took the bag and left the dorm.

She got out and walked to the bus and waited for the bus. Later the bus also arrived and she boarded it.

When she got to the place her Mom said, she searched for the restaurant her Mom told her. Suddenly, she saw it nearby on the road.

When she entered, there were almost no people there. She looked around, noticing her blind date, but she didn’t see him.Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.

So, she decided to sit down at the empty table first and ordered a milk tea. She picked up the cell phone and decided to play CG first, while waiting.

After thirty minutes her blind date also arrived.

“Hi, are you Nicole?”

A man asked in front of Nicole, she looked at him before answering. He looks like a genius because he wears glasses, he wears a white polo shirt, he has a medium height, he looks good and he dresses well.

She nodded and replied, “Yes!”

He smiled at Nicole and introduced himself, “Ah, nice meeting you Nicole, I’m Harry!” and he held out his hand to Nicole and shook hands.

Then he sat down in the other chair and talked to Nicole. While talking, they ordered food.

They talked about their hobbies, sports or activities and which school they go to.

“What do you do when you have free time?” Harry asked her.

“Ah, when I have free time, sometimes I draw or play a mobile game. How about you?” she asked.

“Me, I’m doing my artwork, figures made of clay.”

“Really? You also love the arts?” Nicole asked in surprise.

“Yes, I love arts too! Here, do you want to see it?” Harry asked.

“Yes, sure!” Nicole happily replied.

He then got his phone and handed it to Nicole. She saw the different images of what he did.

Nicole was amazed at what she found out, because she just dated that they both love the arts. She thought she and Harry would get along, one day.

“As for you, do you have a picture of your drawings on your phone?” Harry asked.

Nicole scratched her head before answering, “Ah, nothing. I don’t picture my works. My drawings are on my sketchpad.”

“Ah is that so, well some other time, please showing it to me.”

“Okay all right, no problem.” she smiled and nodded.

“Where are you studying?”

“At CHM University, you?”

“Really? I also study there, but I don’t see you there. What time do you come in?” Harry asked.

“Ah, six in the morning.” Nicole’s short answer.

“Ah, that’s why. I’m in the afternoon, because I’m too lazy to wake up early. So that, I took the afternoon schedule.” Harry explained.

“Is that so?”

After they talked, Harry took her to school. Harry did not sleep in the school dorm; he went home to their house, which is quite close to the school.

“Oh, let me go first.” Harry said goodbye to Nicole.

“Okay, thank you for taking me back here. Be careful coming home.” Nicole said goodbye while smiling.

“All right, thank you too.” he waved at her and walked away.

She looked at him, until he could take a taxi. She did not notice that Jake was approaching behind her.

“Who’s that?”

Nicole was surprised when suddenly someone spoke behind her.

“Have you been there before?” Nicole asked in surprise as she looked at Jake.

“Not so much. Who is that?” Jake asked again.

“Don’t care about that!”

Nicole then walked away and entered Jane’s dorm. Jake followed her and walked into the men’s dorm.

Nicole went to Jane and knocked on her dorm door. Jane was surprised to see Nicole and she immediately let her into the room.

They sat on the side of the bed and talked.

“How was your date? Go ahead and tell me.” excited Jane said.

“Well my date was okay.” smiling Nicole said.

“Okay? Is he handsome, smart or tall?” she asked.

“He’s not very handsome, but he’s okay, he looks like a genius, because he is wearing eye glasses and his height is only moderate.” Nicole said with a smile.

“So, did you like him?” Jane asked her seriously.

“Well, I’m not sure if I really liked him. But for the first time, I dated someone who both loves the arts! And take note, he is also studying here!”

“What? Really, he’s studying here? You’re both, so he knows how to draw too?” Jane asked.

“He does not draw but he makes crafts made of clay. He did show me his works. It looks okay, he’s good.” Nicole explained.

“Ows, so you mean something! Ahm, what about Jake?” Jane said.

“Speaking of the devil, he saw Harry taking me to the gate earlier. I didn’t realize he was behind me.”

“Oh, what did he say?”

“He asked who that man was who sent me. My answer is… he doesn’t need to know.” Nicole replied.

“Hahaha, you’re serious. You should have told him the truth that you dated.” Jane said.

“Tssk! He’s smart; he already knows what he saw. He just wants to come from me.” Nicole said.

“Well, how is that? Who will you choose between the two of them?” Jane asked.

“How can I choose, Jake doesn’t like me!” she said to Jane.

“She does not like you, but you already kissed, haven’t you?” Jane asked.

Nicole thought that Jake and she had kissed several times. She didn’t answer right away, so Jane surprised her.

“Wait, are you not telling me something?” at the same time she pinched Nicole on its side.

“Ouuchh!”

“Tell me the truth! Has anything happened to you and Jake?” Jane asked seriously.

“What? No, nothing happened to us!”

“Eh, what are you keeping about? I know you’re keeping something a secret from me. Tell me Nicole!” disgusted Jane said.

“Well, he kissed me.” Nicole said briefly and bit her lower lip.

“What? When?! Why don’t you tell me right away? Tssk!” disgusted Jane said.

“Because I’m embarrassed.”

“When did he kiss you? Wait, did he really kiss you? Maybe you’re just imagining that?” Jane assured.

“That’s true, he kissed me… the night Kim ambushed me, he defended me and then we hid in a dark part of the building. Then -”

“Then what?” Jane asked.

“That’s it, we looked at each other then, he kissed me.” Nicole replied.

“Are you sure Jake kissed you?!” Jane asked again.

“Yes, why don’t you believe?”

“Eh, because if he kissed you voluntarily, it’s mean he likes you!” said Jane.

“That’s exactly what I was thinking. I really can’t sleep that night. I asked him why he kissed me.” Nicole said.

“Oh, what did he say, why did he kiss you?” Jane asked.

“His answer to me, he said he did not know!” said Nicole sadly.

“What?! He doesn’t know? Haist, you’re just fooling around!” bored Jane said.

“So, maybe Jake is just tripping on me.”

“Let go friend, if Jake doesn’t like you, Harry is there. Try to get to know him better, right? After all, he is really what your parents want, for you. Unlike Jake, there seems to be no ambition in his life, he only wants his passion, his band and singing! How is he going to give you a good life, with the little he earns from gigs, tsk?!” and Jane just shook her head.

Jane is right, even though Jake is smart, handsome, her parents will definitely not like him, when they find out that he is just a band member and he is poor.

“Friend, I know you like Jake too, because you are with him every day, but restrain yourself, because you have no future with Jake!” said Jane.

“I know that, I also noticed in him that he is not very serious in his studies. I don’t even see him reviewing or answering assignments. He always plays basketball or sings in the band.” Nicole explained.

“So, listen to me. Just avoid Jake, so you don’t fall for him!” said Jane as she held Nicole’s hand.

“Okay friend, I will do that!”

Then they were happy to talk again.
