Our eyes met for a moment but he immediately turned to look at James. "I have something to discuss with you." He said.
"Fuck, why now." I heard James cursed lowly but then he sighed and nodded in approval at Vincent.
He faced me and said "I'm sorry Kelly, I have to go but I'm hoping for the next time." He smiled and I nodded.
Waving his hand, he turned his back and walked away. But then, I couldn't forget Vincent gazed at me once again before he walked with James.
I held my chest, the rapid beating didn't stop, do... I... love him?
"Kelly!" I shook out the thoughts and faced the girls with a smile on my face.
I saw them holding trays, I can see Jenna smiles happily but Stella and Elena wear the face of annoyance.
What happened to them? It seems like someone stole their favorite toy.
When they got closer I walked beside Jenna "What happened to these two?" I whispered.
"They were brokenhearted." She answered through whispers.
"We're not!" They yelled in chorus.
Jenna looked at me and shrugged, "Just don't mind them, Kelly." She whispered and I nodded.
Suddenly, I looked at the side of laboratory building when I sensed someone watching us, it was just as instinct but then I saw no one. Maybe, my instinct sucks.

"He was too caring and overprotective jerk! That means he likes me too, right? But why then, why was he flirting with some random girl?" Elena nagged in anger while we were listening to her rant.
We a sitting here in the Wheels Garden having bonds with the girls but my mind keeps running for Vincent.
"Maybe they were having friendly talks." Jenna said, trying to sooth her.
Elena shook her head in sadness, "They were smiling at each other! They were sweet... maybe he loves her... and he just treated me as his sister." Elena said in sadness.
"Don't say that Elena. Don't assume things without getting to know the truth." I stated. "And besides, you never told him your true feelings so how would you know he doesn't have feelings for you?" I pointed out.
To know the truth, they should open up. There are hidden truths that we didn’t know and by assuming things, will make hard for the both of them. At least if they know the truth, they will know the right thing to do.
"But... I-I don't have the guts to tell him." She pouted.
I looked at Stella but she still seems to be spacing out ever since we got here in the garden.
I heard Jenna sighed "Sometimes, you have to be brave. If you love him, then tell him... you might not know he feels the same towards you."
Elena wiped her tears "I will try to gather all of my strength, I have to tell him. I love him... and I don't wanna lose that jerk."
"How about you Stella, what happened to you?" I asked, I would prefer the normal way than relying on my powers.
"Ah, m-me? N-nothing, I'm fine." Hhmm... she seems a bit lost.
Curiosity crept on me but I feel bad if I'll try to see the truth inside of her. She is my friend and I respect her privacy.
I smiled soothingly "Stella... do not forget that we are always here for you. You can rely on us for everything as long as we are able to help with our utmost capability."
She smiled, nodding. "Of course, thank you." And she pulled me into a hug.
Suddenly, a vision popped into my mind.
~~ "Stella was walking in the hallway, it seems like she's walking towards her locker but suddenly she stopped and hid at the edge of the locker.
She peeked at the side and saw... Kenneth? He was putting his things inside his locker.
"I said no! You know how important Elena is to me, I can't risk her life in danger." The door of his locker suddenly closed with fast and strong force without anyone touching it, and then he faced... Josh?
I can sense the erratic heartbeats coming from Stella.
"I know. But dude... I- I can't take it anymore. I-" Josh said stuttering but he stopped.
"Save it. I love Elena as much as you do. If you dared to hurt or put her in danger... I will kill you." After Kenneth said it, Stella ran away, as fast as she could and the sadness radiating from her was too strong." ~~
I broke from the hug "I'm sorry..." I accidentally saw it.
"Sorry for what?" Stella asked in confusion.
"N-nothing. It's just that I've been too busy and did not have much time with you." I covered up.
"Oh Kelly, don't be sorry. I understand, we will schedule a day for our girls’ day. Okay?" She said and I nodded.
"Can we join?" Elena suddenly intervene and I can see Jenna wearing puppy eyes.
I smiled "Of course!" Stella and I both exclaimed.
"Guys, it's time. We have to go back to our classes." Jenna said, we nodded and went to our own classes.

The afternoon classes had ended and I started walking back to my dorm.
I sighed, the weather today is too hot. I tapped the handkerchief inside my pocket but then suddenly I felt nervous when I realized I did not have it.
Oh no, no, no. I can't lose that handkerchief! Dad gave it to me during my Sweet Sixteen.
Holding the inside of my pocket, a vision popped on my head. I saw my handkerchief fall on the bench of the Wheels Garden.
I immediately ran towards it, I hope it's still in there. Oh please Matilda, if you're real... guard my handkerchief well.
The moment I reached the bench of Wheels Garden, I was disappointed when I saw nothing but only the bench. I tried to look somewhere in the garden but... it was nowhere to be found!
Suddenly,
"Are you looking for this?" A guy said from behind.
Wait- that voice! I slowly turned to see...
