The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Corinne yawned. “The empty seat here looks more comfortable, so I decided to sit here. You don’t mind, do you?”
Jason smiled. “Of course not. Though, I’m afraid someone else would.”
He gestured pointedly at Jeremy with his eyes when he said that.
However, Jeremy did not even look his way. He continued to scroll on his phone with one hand while resting his cheek on the
other.
Corinne threw him an indifferent glance before picking up some snacks from the coffee table. The TV was playing some sci-fi
movie, but no one was actually paying attention to it. She turned to watch the movie and popped the snacks into her mouth.
Zeke was sitting on the sofa’s armrest and talking to the other girls. From time to time, he would turn around to speak a few
words with Gerald. Everything looked so harmonious, yet there seemed to be an ominous tension lingering in the air.
“Corinne, I saw the photos. You’re absolutely gorgeous in that wedding dress. It’s such a shame though, that I don’t get to see
you wear that in real life,” said Jason with a smile as he poured a glass of juice and passed it to her.
“Thank you,” said Corinne, but she immediately placed the juice on the coffee table without taking a sip. “But you’re not missing
out on anything. Besides, you’ll be able to see your bride in a wedding dress when you get married one day.”
Something flashed across Jeremy’s eyes when she saw Corinne put the juice on the coffee table.
Jason smiled. “You’re right. I hope I get to marry the girl of my dreams one day, and I hope that she’s—”
Corinne could almost hear him end the sentence with ‘you’, causing her to frown. ‘Here he goes again, trying to break up me and
Jeremy.’
Thus, it was a good thing he was cut off by Annie calling her from the top of the stairs.
“Corinne!” Annie suddenly shouted before running down the stairs in a panic. Her footsteps were loud as she ran.
“Corinne... Umm...” panted the pale Annie. She was so out of breath that she could not even form a proper sentence.
Corinne was getting tired, thinking Annie was going to ask for her blessing again. Frowning, she said, “Look, I’m not going to
meddle with your relationship anymore. You can do whatever you like, okay?”

Annie frowned. “No, it’s not about that!” she said quickly. “Look, Corinne. Check out your VeeTube account. You’ve become one
of the trending topics!”
Corinne raised her eyebrow. “I’m one of the trending topics?”
Everyone quickly took out their phone to check out their VeeTube.
Annie was right. Corinne had indeed become one of the trending topics.

Corinne frowned when she saw the hashtags. When she looked up, she saw everyone looking at her questioningly. Everyone,
except for Jeremy.
He was still scrolling and tapping away on his phone nonchalantly as if the whole thing had nothing to do with him.
“Corinne, what the hell is going on?” asked Annie worriedly.
