“Someone whom I shouldn't be thinking of?” Natalie was stumped and pointed at Trix. “Are you talking about him?”

Trix turned his face to one side as if he had just recalled something embarrassing.

Hannah did not realize the subtle change in his demeanor and nodded eagerly. “Yes, Trix is my boyfriend now, and we're going to get married in the future. Don't you dare get any ideas about him!”

“Huh?” Natalie was stumped, and she took a few moments to regain her composure and chuckled aloud. “Hannah, since when have I ever gotten any ideas about Trix?”

She would not even have remembered that someone like him existed had they not bumped into each other that day.

“Don't think that you'd be able to talk yourself out of this. You-”

“Alright, just cut it out!” Trix blushed crimson red as he reached out to grab Hannah's hand in an attempt to stop her from babbling.

Hannah paid no heed to him and shrugged off his hands. “I'm going to make it clear to her. Didn't she used to pursue you back then, or have you forgotten all about it?”

“Wait a minute,” Natalie said as she interrupted her, “Hannah, are you saying that I've pursued Trix before?”

“Am I wrong about this? I've liked Trix since our first year back in university, and I've pursued him back then. Besides, I know for a fact that Trix was reluctant to be together with me because you liked him back then too. Did you know how many people steered clear of him because of you?” Hannah glowered at Natalie as she berated her.
