Gabriella’s POV
It was late afternoon when I wrote my last exam for my third year. I was waiting for my friend Chloe and
her boyfriend Alex outside. I was pleased to learn that next year would be my last year. For someone
like me, I had to give it my all. I don’t have enough money to pay for my own education. So, I made
sure my grades were good enough to qualify for a scholarship. Chloe has been studying on a
scholarship since she began university. But she failed several of the classes and the scholarship
stopped providing her with financial assistance. Alex has been paying her tuition since then. Alex Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
appeals to me. He has the funds and backs Chloe. They’ve been together since their second year and
adore one another. Alex’s parents adore Chloe as well. They truly adore her more than their own son.
When the two argue, they always side with Chloe. I hope I can find someone like Alex. He’s very kind
and so sexy. Chloe and I grew up together at the orphanage. We were both booted out when we were
18 years old. We continued together after that, but when Chloe reached 19, Alex moved in with Chloe,
and I now have the place to myself while studying and working part-time.
Chloe yelled out, “Hey Gaby!” She was approaching me with Alex.
“Let’s head out tonight for some cocktails. We need to rejoice. Next year will be our last year, and I am
not going to take no for an answer. I’ll be there to pick you up at 6 p.m.”
She didn’t even give me the opportunity to speak. I took a taxi to the garage, worked for four hours, and
then returned home. I showered, put on make-up, and never went overboard with it. I always tried to
look natural, so I wore my dress and high heels. Chloe’s instructions were to wear a dress and high
heels. At 5:45 p.m., she texts me.
“Are you ready, bitch?”
I replied back, “I’ll be down in 5 minutes.”As I walked towards Alex’s vehicle, Chloe and Alex seemed
completely taken aback.
“Can you tell me where you’ve been concealing that butt?” Alex made a comment.
For me, Alex was more of an older brother to me, while Chloe was more like a sister to me. Alex was a
part-time student who was also employed by his father’s firm. He was 5 years older than me and
Chloe, and we were in the same class. Despite the fact that these two were quite protective of me, they
also encouraged me to find a boyfriend of my own.
“I think you’re going to get laid tonight,” Chloe remarked.
"Oh, please shut up."
Poor me, I grinned. I’ve never seen a man naked, let alone kissed, let alone have sex.
Alex took us to the club, which was really gigantic. He escorted us to the VIP session that he had
reserved for us. Chloe placed an order for several drinks. Whatever she ordered, it was delectable and
delightfully sweet. I couldn’t even tell that I was consuming alcohol.
“Hey, Gaby. Let’s get this party started on the dance floor. "
