chapter 3- Stef

"Aren't you the 1st rank holder of city B?". Evan asked glancing at gia.

"Yes I was". Gia answered clearing her throat and gulping another sip of tea. "How do you know about it? Am i that famous?".

Evan laughed at gia's remark.

"Famous, of course you are. Do you sometimes forget that you are the only 'heir of brandcez '." Evan said emphasizing the last 3 words.

"Hmm, that's good". Gia said with a poker face.

After saying that Evan felt like he peeked into a dark room. The atmosphere became cold. Evan stood up.

"Nice to meet you my neighbour. Let's be good friends" evan said extending his hand again for a handshake.

Gia gave him a smile while shaking hands with him.

"Let's meet tomorrow, at Paul's cafe" evan said with a bright smile. "Earlier i forgot to tell you that I'll also be your classmate at Paul's cafe"

"Oh that's good. See you tomorrow" gia said waving her hands. As evan exited from the gate.

Gia locked the door. And started cleaning up the table on which she served tea to evan. Her mind was occupied with the thing evan did earlier in the kitchen. It really did not feel like a prank. There was a cold vibe in the kitchen before the window's opened. There was something different. And now that feeling was gone.

Gia felt chills when she thought about it.  Not being able to shake off those odd thoughts she decided to take a stroll in her backyard.

She opened the back door and stepped out of it. The backyard was covered with fresh carpet of nature. Green grass wanting her to step on them. All the trees in her yard dressed in their wooden clothes were already welcoming her into their place. Bushes of plants al rustled in happiness wanting to be touched by her. Heaps of freshly fallen leaves were collected in a place which looked like a beany chair for her to sit.

Fresh breeze kissed her cheeks and attempted to take her chocolate brown hairs with them. The backyard which looked like mini forest helped gia clear her mind.

After a stroll it was time to make dinner. Gia went inside to cook. Entering in kitchen again reminded her of the thing that happened. She decided to play some music and cook.

Cooking for the first time is full of confusion. Gia managed to cook some pasta. She cooked it for herself and that was her biggest achievement. After all the chores she went back in her room to embrace her bed and relax.

Pulling her sheets over her body she started thinking about her day. "Evan is such a strange guy" she thought to herself. Closing her eyes. The moonlight entered from gia's window to have a look at gia sleeping. It embraced the lonely kid and helped her have a good night.

Next morning gia woke up with a smile on her face. She dreamed about baking a fluffy and beautiful cake. Which made her feel so worthy of herself. Gia always found happiness in such simple things although she was the richest she always craves for simple things in her life.

Today was the first day of baking classes at Paul's cafe. Excitement ran into her body. She locked the door and started to walk out of the gate.she suddenly paused as she remembered evan's words "let's meet tomorrow at Paul's cafe". He was her classmate at baking class. No matter how she thought the only word matched him was "strange".

She started walking on the lane. The sun shining in the sky. The bird's chirping on the branches of the tree. The butterflies changing their destination from one  flower to another flower were all so beautiful. She didn't even realise she walked in a sunny day without being tired.

Chris welcomed her with a wide smile. His gleaming white teeths was shining so bright like a diamond. Gia smiled back at him. Chris directed her towards left where the class were to be taken. Gia walked towards the class. There were already 5 peoples. Including evan. Evan smiled at gia ,waved at her and patted at the seat near him. Seemed like he was also very excited. Gia went near him and sat. Evan started introducing the other 4 peoples who were his friends.

"This is elvin" evan pointed a guy who looked like a handsome nerd. Specs on his nose bone. Hairs parted in side and combed as perfectly as it can be. Dressed neatly as he was employed in some MNC. His eyes roamed everywhere but not where gia was sitting. He seemed like a shy person.

"This is andy" evan pointed at a punky guy who was sitting right beside elvin. His hairs were bleached. He looked like a rockstar. He wore a ripped pants and a oversized shirt which was half tucked in his pants and half out. He extended his hand for hanshake. He seemed like a friendly and sweet person rather than all punky and rowdy.

"This is louis and this is jen" evan said pointing his 2 fingers in their direction. "Every class has a lovey -dovey devil couple to make other single angels jealous this one is that devil couple of our class" Evan said with a smirk while andy hugged elvin mimicked jen hugging louis.

Jen threw a book at andy which landed on elvin's face because andy escaped. Andy bursted into laughter. As louis caught jen before she could beat the shit out of andy.

"And guys this is gia my new neighbour" evan said pointing at gia.

Gia smiled at 4 of them not knowing what to say.

"Guys i feel a new couple will be born in this class" andy said with a smirk glancing at evan.

"Then we devil's will devour you" jen said growling at andy.

In a moment 20 people's entered the classroom wothout pause. Everyone settled in the empty seats and the classroom was full of people. Everyone busy in talking with each other no one noticied one young man entered the class.

He took the chalk and made a screech noise on the board. Everyone's ears rang and everyone's attention moved towards the guy.

"Welcome to the class, I'll be accompanying you all in this learning journey. I'm here to assist you all in learning the art of baking" the guy said with a smile. Which was cold. And seemed non friendly and dominating.

"You guys can call me stef" he said glancing at everyone in the room. As if he did not wanted to miss eye contact with any one of the student.

"Now wach one of you take your time and introduce yourself, today is going to be only talk session so open up as much as you can and get to know each other because there won't be a chance like this in future". stef said taking his seat.

After each one introduced themselves. Stef stood up and came in the center of the class. "You guys already decided your learning partners when you chose your seats" stef said with a smirk. "This won't change, and the seatmates who are now partners will accompany each other in learning".

Gia glanced at the young man. Who glanced back at her. His sapphire like eyes meeting gia's amber like eyes.
