Annoyed, Hannah smacked Edwin on the head.
“Stop assuming that anyone who talks to me is instantly charmed, okay? Meeting someone doesn’t automatically mean they’re interested in me!”
Edwin shielded his head with his hands and mumbled, “You’re so remarkable that any guy would be a fool not to be captivated by you.”
“Please!” Hannah shot him a sharp look.
“I’m not one for flattery.”
When the evening feast concluded, Edwin’s classmates proposed extending the festivities at another venue, insisting that Edwin join them.
Edwin, his enthusiasm dimmed, wished only to return home with Hannah.
However, his classmates rallied around him, insisting that the gathering wouldn’t be complete without him.
Jenny Garza, the young girl who was interested in Edwin, chimed in, “Why don’t we invite your cousin too?”
The crowd collectively voiced their approval, urging Hannah to come along.
Although hesitant, Hannah didn’t want to spoil the mood and gave a reluctant nod under the watchful gaze of Edwin’s classmates.
The group erupted in cheers, and Jenny gave Hannah a guileless grin.

“Great, then Edwin and you can hop in my car, and we’ll all head out together.”
“Sounds good.”

Upon hearing Hannah’s agreement, Jenny’s smile widened.
“Perfect, I’ll tell the driver to ready the car.”
As the crowd dispersed, Edwin turned to Hannah.
“You’re not a fan of social events like this, are you? If you want, we can step away.”
“It’s fine. Everyone’s expecting you. It would kill the vibe if you don’t show up.”
Hannah glanced at her wristwatch.
“I can stay for an hour or two and then head out.”
Seeing Hannah’s willingness, Edwin felt a sense of relief.
“Alright, if you’re uncomfortable at any point, just let me know and we can leave.”
“Will do.”
