Anna looked at Gavin, who was furiously typing at his phone. She cuddled closer to him but he sat straighter and moved his phone out of her view. Anna found it unnecessary and ignored it.

Gavin wouldn't hide anything from her, why would he? He loved her as much as she loved him. He lived in her heart and she would hardly look at anyone when he was near. Anna had loved him since High School and now they were together.

"Anna, baby, I need to go." Gavin said, standing up.

"Why? Where?" Anna scrambled to her feet and gave him a pout.

"Don't worry. I would drop you home." Gavin said and started walking towards his car. They had came to a nearby park for spending some time together. Gavin had been busy a lot lately and Anna wasn't finding it good for them.

"It's not home, what I am worrying about. We didn't even talk that much, it's been a long time since we... Forget it." Anna huffed and walked past him to his car and sat inside.

Gavin stared at her then sat inside the car. He caught her hand between his and caressed it with his. His eyes begged her to forgive him.

"Baby, please. You have to understand about my work. I don't want to ignore you, it's all my work and you know I am doing this for our future."

Anna's eyes softened when he said," For us."

She hugged him instantly and he asked,"Don't you want us live happily?"

"Of course, I do. I am so sorry, I behaved like that." She gestured to the park. Gavin grinned at her and pecked on her lips.

"It's all fine. Shall we go now?" Gavin asked, and she nodded and smiled at him.

"Gavin, you can drop me at my university. I have to pick some books from a friend." Anna said to him.

"Alright, then to your university." Gavin said and gave a right turn to the car.

They reached her university and Anna got out not before giving Gavin, a kiss. Anna closed the door of his car and he sped off. She stood there for a while, eying his car going into the distance. She sighed, turned around and almost shouted.

"I scared you." He said. Anna put a hand to her thumping heart and breathed hard.

"Yes, standing in someone's personal distance would scare the person." Anna said, almost gritting her teeth at the uncontrollable beating of her heart.

"I was just standing behind you. I am sorry for scaring you but-" He said and Anna shook her head.

"May I ask why? Do you want to help me again?" Anna asked him. He narrowed his honey Brown eyes at her and smirked a little.

"You remember me," He stated and grinned.

"I do. But Mr..." Anna glanced at his ID card and found his name.

"Mr. Eric Wilson, may I ask what do you want from me?" Anna asked him.

"Your name?" Anna scowled at him.

"Anna," She said.

"You're not lying, are you?" Eric narrowed his eyes and came closer. Anna moved a little back, but couldn't avoid his eyes. Then to avoid the intensity of his eyes, she looked down and began taking out her ID card from her bag.

She shoved it in front of his face.

"There it is. A, N, N, A, Anna."

Eric grinned at her, nodded then backed away. And slowly walked away. Anna rolled her eyes and wasn't able to understand what he had to do with her name.

Eva was at Cafeteria, standing and laughing with some her friends.

"I watched Hunger games last night. Awesome movie, girl."One of her friends, namely Kelly said to Eva. Eva gave a proud shrug.

"That's why I told you to watch it. I am amazed, you hadn't watched it, yet." Eva said and looked around. She had been trying to find that Max Williams to apologize to him, but he was like invisible or something.

Eva was running her eyes on the tables in the cafeteria when she found the one he was looking for. She grinned and made her way to that table, gesturing for her friends to wait for her.

He had stood up from his seat and was about to go into other direction when Eva called after him.

"Hey, Max!" Eva said and saw the file in his right hand, he was reading, and a cup of coffee in his other hand.

Max was turning around when there was some movement behind Eva. Eva didn't know whether it was her bad luck or some student, that pushed her towards Max and ended up with Max's coffee on his file and some on his hand.

Students gasped and some even muttered,

"What is wrong with her?"

"Is she blind?"

"She did it the other day, too."

Max threw a furious glance at her then put his cup on the table. Eva stared at his file then at his face with wide eyes.

"I-I.." Eva tried to say something but words failed to form on her tongue.

"You again!" Max shouted, "Why the hell are you after me?"

Eva bit her lip and shook her head. For a tiny moment, she saw Max's eyes darting towards her lips but they quickly focused on her eyes.

"Hey, wait! I was coming towards you, somebody pushed me and-" Eva said.

"And you collided with me. Well, nice story," Max gave her a bitter smile.

"I am not lying, that is exactly what happened." Eva said and glared at him.

"I don't believe you and I don't even care if you're saying the truth. Just stay away from me or you are going to regret it." Max said and Eva raised her eyebrow and crossed her arms across her chest.

"Oh, really. News flash! Eva Landon is glad to stay away from Max Williams." Eva said and students chuckled but Max's eyes were firmly fixed on her as she walked away, with all of her haughty attitude.

Max wanted to throttle her. She had successfully ruined his project report, which he had just prepared. His hands fisted and he grabbed his ruined wet file and walked away, determined to give Eva Landon a taste of her own medicine.
