“Okay, have you all finished your cake?” Teacher Suzy clapped her hands, calling for the students.
“Done teacher!” All the students said at the same time. Some of the students can not hide their excitement to give the handmade to their loved one.
Sophia brushes Marcus’s shoulder. “Be honest, you are not making any aren’t you?”
Marcus did not reply to Sophia instead, he winked his eyes to Sophia causing his friend rolled her eyes.
“That’s so like you.”
“Now, the time you've been waiting for, it's time to give your cake to your loved ones! Remember, the person who receives it, should not refuse either. Good luck on confessing your love!”
“Ehhhh..” The students laughed at their teacher’s words. It’s good to have a sporting teacher like teacher Suzy.
Mabella looked around, finding Aiden. When she finally found Aiden’s figure with her eyes, she noticed a few female students giving their cake to Aiden. Mabella face turned serious.
Hah.. she did not like this. Can she just be the only one who like Aiden? Why are there so many girls desperate for Aiden? Not that they managed to get Aiden.
“Mabel, what are you doing? You just stand there.”
Mabella quickly changed the look on her face before turning to Sophia. She fakes her smile so Sophia will never discover her true personality.
“Sophia! I- I want to give a muffin to you. You, Sophia? What are you doing?” Mabella asked. This muffin, she will give to Aiden later.
“Muffin for me? Did you make it for us too?”
“Ye- yes.”
“So sweet! This is why I like you so much! Thank you! Do you want to have a taste of my cake?”
“Can I?”
Sophia took a cake -cutting knife and a plate. She started cutting her cake and gave a slice of cake to Mabella. She also gave a plastic spoon for Mabella to eat. “Try to give it a taste.”
Mabella take some of the cake and feed it into her mouth. Her face furrowed before she covered her mouth with her hand. “Ermm! It is delicious! Sophia, you have the talent on cooking!”
“Hehh~~ I know, right?” Sophia's nose swelled and deflated receiving a compliment from Mabella.
“Ah! I need to go! I want to steal Marcos’s cake! I will bring you some if I success in stealing his cake! Trust me, his cake was the best in this world.” Sophia disappears, looking for where Marcos was.
“Marcus! Here, I bake one for you?”
Marcus makes a disgusting face. He already received the cake from the female students but he didn't think he would get it from a guy either.
“Stop seducing me, I won’t fall for you.”
“Aww, does my cake not good enough for you?” Adam seems dejected. He looks at Marcus table, there were so many types of cake. No wonder Marcus wouldn’t accept his sloppy cake.
“I guess you don’t need my cake anymore.”
“Yeah, shoo shoo.” Marcus drive away Adam from his sight.
“Hm? Adam? You are really planning on giving your cake to Marcus?” Emma came. She can not stand with Adam sad face like he already gets rejected before confess.
“Nah, not really. I want to give to Mabel but I feel like I’m gonna get killed.”
Aiden heard Adam’s talking. He turned to face Adam. “I don’t mind.”
“Huh?” Emma and Adam simultaneously startled.
“You.. are not jealous?” Emma asked.
“Why should I? Adam and Mabel are childhood friends and I’m sure Mabel wouldn’t suddenly like Adam just because of a cake. That should happen a long time ago since both of you have known each other.”
Adam force his smile. ‘This guy.. like I thought, I really did not like him.’
“Pffttt.” Marcus tries so hard to hold his laugh. Funny seeing how Adam can not combat Aiden’s words.
“Then, how about you? Did Mabel give you any?” Adam’s turn to ask Aiden.
Aiden silence. This is what has been bothering him ever since. He thought Mabella would give it to him but the girl did not show up from earlier to meet him.
“I will go look for her.” Aiden left them all.
“What?” Marcus makes a bored face.
“You sure you don’t want my cake?”
“Keep it for yourself.” Marcus leave and Emma followed him, leaving Adam alone.
Aiden walked on tiptoe like a thief, not wanting Mabella aware of his presence. When he stands right behind Mabella, Aiden closed Mabella eyes with both his hand.
“Wh- who is this?”
Aiden did not answer. If he let out his voice, Mabella will surely know it was him.
Sophia and Emma who were close to Mabella looked at each other before both of them smirked. Their best friend really attached to this nerd now, huh?
Marcos eyes widened. “Marcus! Look! Look! Aiden so sweet.”
He whispering to Marcus, does not wanting Mabella to hear him.
Marcus turned his head around. When his eyes catch the two of them, he smiled. Aiden first talk and his act right now really did not match, isn’t it? Remember the guy who told he is not into nerd, now he is the one keep bothering that girl.
Adam was feeding the cake to Rohan's mouth. They both also watched a drama with Aiden as a main character.
While Gianna is just standing, staring at them with her poker face.
“Ai- Aiden?”
Aiden slowly let his hand go. “Awesome! How did you know it was me?”
“Y- your scent. You have a good scent.”
Everyone becomes silent with Mabella respond. Aiden took step a back. This is no good. His face right now really turns into red while his heart can not stop beating. Never he thought in his life, he would ever experience this feeling.
“Whoa, he blushed.” Marcos commented.
“You really enjoyed things like this.” Marcus shook his head. Well, it is not bad. Good for him to see Aiden’s new face.
“Aiden can be cute too.”
“Indeed.” Marcos agrees with his twin.
“Ai- Aiden. You okay?” Mabella become worried when Aiden distance himself from her. Dis she said something wrong? Aiden also suddenly turned quiet.
“I’m okay, sorry.” Aiden is coughing, try to calm himself.
“Is- is that so? Oh! I want to give you my muffin! I want to give you early but you look so busy so in the meantime, I gave my muffin to others.”
“Huh? You bakes for everyone?”
“Ye- yes.”
Aiden’s face becomes gloomy. So, it’s not special? He’s not the only she gave to?
“Bu- but I make your muffin different than the others! You- your muffin, it was special.” She gripped her dress tightly. It so flusters to explain things like this to Aiden. Like Aiden would care.
“Yeah?!” Mabella word’s make Aiden let out his warm voice and beaming smile light up the cooking workshop.
Marcus facepalming. ‘Aiden, you should see your face in the mirror. You really had changed. For him to become easy just because of small things like this.’
“He- here, for you.” Mabella handed out the muffin to Aiden.
“Thank you! It’s cute!” With the heart shape cream, how could Aiden possibly stop smiling?
“An- and you? Who are you give to?”
Aiden pause for a moment. He then runs away went to his table to take a cupcake he made. He comes back to Mabella after getting his cupcake.
“Here, for you.”
“Me? You made it for me?”
“Yes, because you are cute. Give it a taste.”
Mabella’s hand trembling even so, she still took Aiden’s cupcake. She slowly took a bite of the cupcake.
“So? How does it taste?”
Aiden’s friends and Adam look at Mabella intensely. Can't wait for the answer.
“Bleghh.” Mabella stick out her tongue. Taste like shit.
Everyone laughs. Well, that’s so like Aiden.
