All Chapters of Cinderella's love story: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

All day Friday, Vivian spent time counting the hours that passed. Clinton texted the location where he would meet his friends, reminding her to come after work. If Jaime really comes, she must find a way to pull him to her side, everything will go well.Vivian felt worried. Jaime doesn't seem to fall for her little tricks easily. But she can certainly take advantage of his naivety. She just needs to get a little closer.When the clock struck seven, she immediately ran out the door and down the block. After arriving at the karaoke bar, she rushed to find the room where Clinton and his friends were staying. After finding it, she suddenly pushed the door open. Her sudden appearance made everyone turn to look at her intently."Vivian, you're here." Clinton happily called out and walked towards her. With a hand on her back, he led her in and closed the door, introducing her to his friends."It's the girl you keep talking about, right?" One of his friends, teasingly then told her. "You bett

"Are you hungry?" He asked hesitantly turning to see how she was feeling, for some reason he was even more embarrassed. She gave him a quick glance and he thought she suddenly looked different than before. Not only was she a nice girl who came for Clinton, but she was somehow more beautiful."Uhm... yes." She nodded.Standing up, he held out his hand. "Since today is our first day as a loving couple, we can hold hands."For a second, he was afraid that moving too fast would make Vivian uncomfortable but the moment she took his hand, his nervousness and tension disappeared. A kind of happiness swept over him and he smiled, holding her fingers.As they started toward the road, he asked. "Is it okay if we walk or do you want to ride?""No problem." She nodded, walking close to him. Unable to restrain himself, he stole a glance at her, feeling his heart flutter. Laughing maniacally again, he turned his attention to the road they had just passed, feeling as if he were in heaven. His heart

Avoiding Clinton's eyes once more, Jaime exclaimed in a harsh voice. "I'm not going on a date.""What?" Clinton asked. "I didn't hear you. What's wrong with you? Can't you speak louder?"Turning suddenly to his friend, Jaime blurted out. "I said I didn't go on a date last weekend."Eyes wide open, Clinton looked straight into Jaime's face and saw the unmistakable sign of remorse."Uhm..." Clinton breathed a sigh of relief, a bit confused as to why Jaime acted like that. "I know, you don't want to go anyway, so...""I was with Vivian." Jaime confessed his sins, his eyes still elsewhere.Now the atmosphere has changed."What?" With a quiet voice, Clinton asked. "Did you...""I and..." Somehow finding courage, Jaime looked at him. "...Vivian. We... we're dating."The noisy conversations around them were like a bustling wave, students were busy entering and exiting the building, walking back and forth."I'm sorry." Jaime apologized seriously. "I know you like her, you care about her a lot

To Vivian's disappointment, Jaime did not show up to her work the next day as he promised. As soon as her shift ended, she immediately headed towards the university and wandered in front of the economics department to wait for him. She waited patiently for 10 minutes after sending him a text that she was waiting for him on campus but received no response.That hit her for a few minutes as to why she felt frustrated and needed to come find him. She could have gone straight home to take a nap as usual, but here she was, acting inexplicably. The kiss on the cheek yesterday was simply a light kiss but she remembered it for a long time. Jaime is her boyfriend, of course, he should act like it.Standing up from the stairs after justifying her thoughts for nearly fifteen minutes of argument, she started to walk away. Her heart suddenly jumped when she heard someone call her name. She quickly turned around and saw Clinton hurrying toward her from the upper steps. The hope that had soared in h

"What are you marking those for?" She asked. Hodja never made a mark in his books."Because those things matter," Jaime replied."Really?" Vivian commented, impressed. "The book must be very expensive.""That's right. I plan to give it to a friend after graduation."Her eyebrows rose. "You are so kind."She would die of happiness if Hodja received a book from an upperclassman."It looks complicated. You're smart but why do you do it?" She speaks."I'm not as smart as you think." He shrugged off her comment then looked at her. "Do you want to try?""Huh?" She asked in surprise, feeling him sitting closer to her. Not less than a second later, he stuffed the pen into her hand and then wrapped his arms around her, holding her hand and marking the page."I'm just highlighting important terms and instructions, like this..." He explained slowly, his voice close to her ear. Vivian looked at the yellow pen, her hand moving with his while her body remained bound in the safety of his arm.This..
