Hey guys! I know I'm so late in posting this chap, but I'm sorry my freakin' life came in the way. XD

KIM'S POV:

Jared Freakin Thail asked me out. It doesn't even make any sense in my own mind let alone the possibility of this actually being the reality. And oh, my response? I turned him down. Unwittingly. And he might probably be thinking now that I don't want to date him. My life is fucked up or what?

That same evening:

"Today was such a waste of make-up", Anna was clearly exasperated.

"Why so?" I, forever the dutiful listener, asked her.

"My so-called boyfriend is sick at home, my ex-es decided to upgrade their weekend and started it off early on Friday so I couldn't make them see what they are missing and not even the hottest guy in the school was there to ogle till the school ends, not that I appreciate it though, but hey, anything is better than going unnoticed"

I flinched at the mention of hottest guy. I know she meant Paul, but my mind could only picture Jared.

I gulped audibly. I haven't precisely told them about my encounter with Jared earlier that evening.

Anna, Liz and I were done with our mini nail paint fest. I chose amaranth color to go with. And Liz painted her nails with blueberry color. Anna, being Anna, painted each nail with different color, which was surprisingly beautiful. Liz and I thought it would turn out as a huge fiasco. Screw you, Anna. She just have to be right always. I may be a tad jealous of her nails but what frustrated me was her predictions about Jared.

"Yeah, I wish this day hadn't happened either" Faking a laugh. Right there my two besties gave me a my-my-what-do-we-have-here look, which I am now accustomed to.

"Spill the beans, Kimmy" They both said in unison.

"Argh, Its this thing. I I-, he asked me- but, I thought he was jus-, ah this is so frustrating girls" I felt completely annoyed.

"What is? Making a complete sentence?", Anna asked me nonchalantly.

"NO. Okay I know how stupid I am already-", Liz was about to disapprove, but I cut her off raising my voice "Or at least I am damn sure you will think of me as one, after I 'Spill the beans'" I air quoted and continued. " I want you girls to NOT to accentuate it any further, Okay?"

They both nodded eagerly. Fuck, they'd do a freaking pirouette move now if I asked them to, just so they could hear me tell what happened.

"I- I mean Jared met me today", both gasped on cue.

But they gasped for very different reasons. Anna- in triumph as she apparently proved to the world that she could never be wrong and Liz - in shock as she screamed with her eyes 'what-did-the-bastard-do-now', but curiosity was written all over their faces.

So I told them what exactly happened and shocking as it can be, there was silence in the room.

Anna was the first to break the ice.

"Are you fucking out of your mind? Oh, wait I forgot, You don't have a brain!"

Liz looked like she was solving the toughest math problem in her mind. Which can be true, being the geek she is.

"Kim, You turned him down?" Liz asked.

"Yes, ma'm"

"And you didn't even realize it?"

"Agreed"

"But it's the guy whom you have had crush for what like, 3 years?"

"Word"

"I give up, You ARE -"

"No don't say it, you promised you wouldn't call me stupid", I said before she could finish it, whining almost like a 2 year old.

"But that doesn't keep you from NOT being one", Anna retorted.

"So what do you suggest I do now?", I asked the expert of Dating and Flirting Services.

"Kimmy I say this because I care about you. I suggest you pull your head out of your ass and call him for heaven's sake"

"And tell what?

"That you have changed your mind"

I looked at them as if they have grown two heads.

"Translation: We want you to ask him out on a date", Liz had to put her two cents in.

"No way Jose" I said

"Who said you have a choice?"Anna said.

I let out a sigh signalling I gave in.

They both smiled in triumph.

Anna threw her phone at me and I caught it. I looked at the phone scowling while Anna looked at me expectantly and Liz had one of those justice-being-served-right look.

Again my life is fucked up or what?

Anna has almost everybody's number in her mobile, which we were thankful for as it comes handy while throwing a party. But now, not so much.

I pressed the call button with much force than needed. After three rings, he answered the phone.

"Hello" he said. And all that was on my mind was... Yikes.

Yep it's a cliffhanger :P I am gonna go all mean on you guys and leave it there :D

And what do you think Kim should do? Man up and ask him out? Or hang up and call it a day? XD

Review pls .
