As he actually enjoyed talking to her, although they just met.

*Nolan watch her leave a small smile adorning his face, the feeling of having a newfound friend."
*He made his way towards a waiting car and climbed inside.*
*The driver turned to Nolan and asked*
*Nolan took a moment to collect his thoughts before responding*
with that ,they drove off
Nolan waited for Loren at the spot they met before after class.
As he was starting to think she wont show up and feels stupid to actually starting to take her as a friend. Stands to leave
As nolan hear Loren voice from behind him, he turn around to see her, she greeted him with a surprised expression
Loren
I can't believe you actually showed up.
*Nolan looks at her surprise she showed up*
Loren
I don't know... I thought you would rather hang out with your other friends or be busy.
*Nolan's gaze fell to the ground*
Nolan
I don't have other friends... And I have pretty much nothing to do most time.. Why I always come at this area..
*Loren Pulled Nolan into an unexpected hug. He froze for a second, unsure of how to respond, but soon felt a sense of comfort. Loren released him and reassured him*
Loren
It's okay, we are friends.
*And Loren turns to leave*
*Nolan, feeling a renewed sense of belonging, followed her eagerly, telling her*
Nolan
I thought u won't show up..
Loren
Sorry i was late, a little something came up , beside that as a friend i always keep my words.
Nolan start being comfortable around her, grateful for the connection they were building.
As Loren and Nolan continued to spend time together over the past four days, Nolan started feeling a sense of comfort and something different whenever he was around her
However, Loren introduced him to a guy named Xavier
Loren
Nolan, I want u to meet Xavier. He is my friend I told I earlier about why I come here for, and he wants to be your friend too.
*Nolan couldn't help but feel a tinge of jealousy and responded"
Nolan
I don't want other friends.
Loren
Come on, don't be like that. I'm sure you guys would be great friends.
Xavier
Xavier also same age as Loren who's bad at study repeated grades and is in same grade as Nolan ,he is joyful but full of mystery
The three of them hangout together after class. and nolan unexpectedly felt little comfortable around Xaiver, as he actually was very nice to Nolan.
The three of them hangout at a empty area in a park, for a moment of peace. At that moment Xavier ask Nolan
Xavier
Tell us about your parents
*Nolan fell silent for a moment before responding*
Nolan
Um... my mom is dead, and I only have a dad. He is always busy because of work.
Loren
Sorry to hear about your parents.
Xavier
Sorry about your mom..
Xavier
What does your dad do?
*Nolan hesitate before answering*
Nolan
He work with the president..
*Xaiver and Loren both give a surprised expression*
Xavier
What! Your parents must be rich. I thought u were from a poor family.. Sorry about that. I always wanted to have parents like that.
He looked up at the sky, lost in his thoughts.
Xavier
My parents are dead... They wanted to go to the beach with me and my little brother, but I was mad at them that day and refused to go. They went without me in the car my dad bought saving money for like 5 months , and.. They never came back.
Nolan
I'm sorry about what happened your parents...
*Xaiver replied with a smile*
Xavier
Its alright, I learn to accept my fate, im over it..
*Nolan looks down lost in thought for few sec, before turning to Loren curious about Loren's family*
Nolan
What about your parents?
Xavier speaks on her behalf
Xavier
Well, let's just say they left her but aren't really dead..
*Nolan felt bad even asking*
Loren
Yeah.. But I'm better on my own..
*Nolan, feeling a sense of shared understanding, looks down and murmurs*
Nolan
I guess we all have family issues..
Xavier
That's alright, but atleast we have each other as friends.
*Nolan ponders for a moment before suggesting*
Nolan
My dad.. My dad's friend, who is the president, is hosting an event this Saturday. Do you guys want to come?
Xavier reacts with surprise
Loren expresses her concern
Loren
Will we even be allowed to attend?
Nolan
Don't worry, you guys will be allowed. I'll make sure of it.
*Xavier appreciates Nolan's offer in excitement*
Xavier
You're already a great friend, you know?
Nolan smiles feeling good, thinking to himself "Is this what it's like to have true friends? Although we still barely know each other truly...
Loren smiles at Nolan, causing him to blush and look away.
They spend rest of the day together going to places and getting to know each other more.
