Giselle's POV.After my cell phone got repaired , I was so happy, and relieved, and settled the bills, Bryan offered to pay, but I declined, he was just a student I didn't expect him to spend money without a tangible reason, and I couldn’t let him pay for such thing for me, because he was my student.“Thank you, Mr Lopez,” I said, and he nodded at me with a smile, “you are always welcome, ma'am,” he said. “What about we have some tea,” I said pointing at the coffee shop nearby, “it's a coffee shop,” he said, and I nodded at him.“I know, but we can get you something else when we get there,” I said with a smile.We both went to the coffee shop, and we sat at the table close to the window, the breeze was perfect.We didn't know how they run the coffee shop, so we sat and observed, but after some time, I wanted to go to the counter and order, but Bryan stopped me.“I will go,” he said.“No, it's my treat,” I said, and he sat down. “Should I get you cake?” I asked, and he shook his head.

Bryan's POV.After the boring weekend, I was so happy to wake up on the Monday morning, I couldn't wait to see my Giselle, I went into the bathroom, and have my bath preparing for school, but my phone rang all of a sudden and I had to ran out of the bathroom to pick it up, I was expecting a call, but when I got to the bedroom, and check the caller ID, it was my mom, and I picked it up.“Hello mom,” I said. “Hello son,” I said from the other end.

But why?” I asked, and she explained.“Okay Mom,” I said. “Don't get into trouble, and don't miss class,” she said from the other end, and smiled, because I memorized the line already.“I won't mom,” I said, and she ended the call.

Bryan's POV.I went to the counter, and served myself, then place it on the tray, I went to a table and started to eat, but the students whispers continue to bother me, I always have many eyes on me on campus, but those ones were uncomfortable and out of hand , it seem like they have something against me or heard something about me, “what could it be?” I asked myself.After some time, I lost my appetite. I stood up with the leftovers, and went back to the counter to drop the food tray. But on my way, I saw that a finger was pointed at me, and the girl's gaze met mine, and she immediately withdraw it and looked away.“What's wrong with you people,” I muttered, and dropped the food tray. I wanted to walk out of the cafeteria, but I stopped when I heard a voice whispering, it was loud enough for me to hear.“They broke up?” The girl said, and she wanted to beep at me, but I was already in front of her, and she was nervous.“Hey Bryan,” she said awkwardly, trying to cover the situation. “

Giselle's POV. I finished the classes I had in the morning. I was still expecting Donald to text me or call, but I didn't see any. I left my office, and went to another lecture hall after lunchtime. I finished the lecture after 2 hours, and headed to my office, but on my way, I saw the situation in Bryan's class, and I wondered what happened, but it was not my place to interrupt.
