The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Everyone in the party was enjoying themselves, singing and drinking. Stella had been sitting next to Lucas as they chatted with the people around them. Melody could not help but feel somewhat envious of her.

Stella knew how to break the ice with anyone, whereas Melody only felt uneasy in front of strangers. She could never be as sociable as Stella.

As Lucas sat in the crowd, he could not help but occasionally glance at the lonely-looking Melody, who sat alone in the corner.

Lucas narrowed his eyes on her. When Beatrice told him to take Melody to the movies, he had no interest in going to the movie with her at all as they were only pretending to be a couple. They did not have to do what regular couples do. Nonetheless, his grandmother had bought the tickets, and he did not want to disappoint her. Thus, he decided to go along with her suggestion.

He meant it when he agreed to take Melody to the movie, but somehow, they ended up at the surprise birthday party Stella prepared for him instead.
