Chapter: 60
“Who’s still sober? Please,” he asked in a drunk voice, “take Debbie back to her house.”
A boy in the corner stood up with flushed cheeks and immediately volunteered. He was not drunk — he
was just shy. He finally had a chance to be with the girl of his dreams alone.
“I didn’t drink too much, so I’ll be the one to take her back,”
Gregory announced. He put his ss on the table and walked towards the drunk girl.
Jared was a little surprised and taken aback that it was Gregory who took the initiative, but he
immediately dismissed his suspicion and told the volunteer, “She lives in the Esastin Vi.” Among all
her ssmates, Debbie only had four friends who knew her address: Jared,
Kasie, Kristina, and Dixon.
Upon hearing that she lived in the Esastin Vi, Gregory paused. He felt mixed emotions flooding him
from within.
The ce where Debbie lived was a vi where only the richest and most powerful people of Alorith
resided.
He had started to wonder why the girl of his dreams lived somewhere so luxurious. ‘What kind of family
is she from?’ he thought to himself.
Finally, he picked Debbie up and proceeded to the door. He hailed a taxi and gently ced the girl
inside before getting in himself.
‘What a silly girl! How bold she is to be this drunk! What if someone nned to take advantage of her
state?’ the boy thought.

He stared at her while she was leaning against him with her cheeks colored in crimson. It was as
though she had blush on. His heart skipped a beat when he saw such a beautiful sight.
He had been her high school ssmate for three years, but he had never talked to her before. She was
exactly his type — her cheerful spirit and bubbly character had made himpletely fall in Love with
her.
After they had taken the college entrance exam, he had thought that she would select the College of
Music, if not the Institute of Physical
Education. After all, she excelled at both fields. She was gifted and she had no idea how many people
she could attract with these attributes.
Gregory, however, saw himself without talent in both. The only thing he could do for the girl he loved
was cheer her on with everyone else whenever she ran in Long-distance races. Indeed, that was his
only idea of loving her; from a Long, long distance.
When Gregory knew that Debbie had applied to the Economics and
Management School, he felt thrilled. He couldn’t contain his excitement. The thought of going to the
same school and being in the same ss with her again made his day.
During their freshmen and sophomore years, they hadn’t been in the same ss. Luckily, the Gods
heard and granted his plea; they became ssmates again.
Suddenly, a memory shed into his mind. Despite being one of the terrible students, with terrible
grades, Debbie remained excellent in his eyes. She may be a bad student, but for him, she was
admirable in all other things. Thinking about this, he had always thought that she was too good for him,
and he had never been confident enough to strike a conversation with her. He thought he was
incapable andcking in many ways.
Even then, the same thought lingered in his mind. With this, he decided to keep his admiration to
himself until he became sessful enough to finally confess. These thoughts yed in his mind as he
asionally nced at her sleeping face.
Half an hourter, they arrived at Esastin Vi. The taxi was hailed by the guards at the entrance and
Gregory didn’t know what to do. They didn’t let them through until they saw Debbie who was sleeping
in the back seat.
Frantic, he said, “Debbie, wake up. Which way should we go?” Reaching out to her, he tried to wake
her up by shaking her shoulders.
“Debbie?” he continued.
Drunk, Debbie couldn’t utter a single word, nor hear anything he just said. After a long while, with not a
single response from her, Gregory told the taxi driver to wait. Opening the door and pulling her out of
the taxi, he carried her and walked towards the vi she lived in. His eyes continuously wandered, as
he was in awe of what he was seeing
