“I’LL go with you,” Sabrina said.
“No need, I’ve got it,” Bettie responded, letting out a hiccup, and staggered off to the restroom.
Lance, facing away from the bathroom door, was gazing out the window.
The sound of footsteps made him turn. The Light reflecting off his glasses momentarily blinded. “Bettie.”
“Enjoying the aroma here, are we?” Bettie mocked.
She had always been mean.
A touch of feeling helpless crossed Lance’s eyes. He moved closer and remarked, “I was waiting for you.”
“I’m not interested in catching up with you!” Bettie went straight ahead.
Lance grabbed her wrist, seeking clarity. “So, I’m just leftovers to you?”
It seemed that he had heard her words.
Pulling her wrist free, Bettie said, “Isn’t that the truth?”
With that, she walked off briskly, giving him no chance to speak.
Bettie’s steps were unsteady, making her wobble occasionally.
Lance remained still, his gaze fixed intently on her behind his glasses, lost in memories.
His mind drifted back to their high school days when she cornered him in a hallway and confessed, “Lance, I’m really into you.
Will you go out with me?”

Bettie wasn’t aware, but it was he who dropped the idea to Elora about arranging the class reunion, and he was the one who

Bettie would surely join the class gathering.
Upon arriving, he caught the sound of Bettie’s voice near the room’s entrance. It took all his willpower to maintain his composure.
Eventually, Bettie reached the door and nudged it open.
The chatter inside the room came to a halt, and all eyes turned to her.
Bettie didn’t catch on until she noticed the empty space above the round table and realized there was nobody nearby.
