I sighed, walking to the spar match while thinking about what Tobe said. Is it true? Could he treat me better? I thought, when I forgot what I was doing.

"Pucca..? You alright?" Ching asked. How long had she been walking with me?

"I'm alright!" I quickly replied, hoping she wouldn't see through that kind of lie, being my best friend she could often tell if something was wrong.

Today I was lucky, she just shrugged it off. Phew..

"I thought you were already at the spar match?" I asked, it was weird. She usually goes with Abyo to observe him spar with Garu.

"Ohh! Yea, I was already there!!" She seemed flustered... "I just- wanted to check if you were on your way, haha!

.

"And look! We're here!" she smiled. "Bet you're gonna greet Garu with a kiss!

"Oh look, Garu! There's Pucca!"

He looked around real quick, probably worried his girlfriend would pop out of nowhere and kiss him.

What a perfect opportunity for me to actually knock him on his feet! His weakness has always been Pucca!

"Abyo! Are you using the Pucca trick again?" Ching asked. "You know.. she's actually here, right?"

.

Shit.

I watched as Pucca sat down to watch Garu. I wonder if she's thinking about what happened earlier with Tobe..

Did she know I was there? Is she really gonna give Tobe a chance? Is she gonna stop hanging out with us for him?

..I overthink too much.. I hope she's okay though.

I sat down next to her, observing her. She's definitely deep in thought.. Maybe she's thinking about the one time Tobe gave her a love potion to make her in live with him.

Tobe? With a girlfriend? Pft.. as if! What makes him think he's good enough for a girl like Pucca?

That's when I realized. I'm butting in their business! I should really stop worrying about Pucca..

"Hehe!" Pucca giggled all of a sudden, almost scaring me to death.

"What is it Pucca?" I asked. I wonder what she's gonna do now..

She whispered in my ear, "Can you and Abyo make.. a secret date for me and Garu?"

"A DATE?!?!" I screamed. Oh fuuuuuu—

Pucca quickly covered my mouth, as I saw the boys shrug it off.

"Get Abyo and meet me upstairs in Goh-Rong, 8PM sharp! Got it?" she said, still holding her hand over my mouth.

"Mhmm.." I replied, with a muffled voice.

I hope this goes well...
