"So now you are going to ignore him?" Ella asked.

Gracey lowered her eyes and nodded. "It was too embarrassing for us," she admitted.

"You realize it's normal, right? I mean, especially when someone has feelings for you," she stated as a fact.

" I do, but neither he nor I have had any prior experience. Out of all that, he is my friend. How can I break the rule?" She exclaimed, unable to explain why she was so embarrassed or provide an answer.

" Friends? Seriously? And what kind of buddies can you please enlighten? "And what stupid rule are you talking about?" Eveline inquired.

This time, her remarks were serious, as was she.

Everyone was aware by this point that Daniel was interested in wooing Gracey, but this silly girl continued to consider him a friend while having affections for him.

No rational person would ignore the way she looks at Daniel, but she wants to keep building lines between them until one of them gives up.

Gracey was unable to answer. What would she say if she was correct in whatever she assumed?

Yes, she had feelings for Daniel, but she couldn't bring herself to cross the line between them.

Ella saw her uncertainty and questioned, "Gracey, how do you feel? I mean, do you truly see him as a friend? What we see in his eyes for you is love. Not just a friend, but something more."

Gracey looked up, a sense of pondering still flowing through her mind. She continued, adding to the confusion.

"And no matter how much you ignore him, that guy has his eyes on you."

Gracey turned her head and saw Daniel approaching them. Her eyes widened, and he was already standing in front of her.

"Excuse me, ladies. "Do you mind if I take Gracey away for a minute?" he asked, glancing at Eveline and Ella.

"Of course. She is all yours," Eveline said, leaving Gracey perplexed.

Daniel waited for Gracey to move, and when she did, he grabbed her hand and led her away.

"The boy is desperate," Eveline replied, leaving Ella to contradict her.
