"yeah, it's really nice to know that this brat has friends." Sophia said as she gave James a glance.

Ann, Jenny and Tricia burst out from laughing to what Sophia said.

"you see! everyone is with me!" Sophia said with a smile

"what's that supposed to mean?!" James said as he raised one of his eyebrow

"that your  brat! ahaha" Sophia said as everyone laugh except for James of course

"shut up! stop teasing me." James said as he gave a death glare to Sophia

As everyone was talking, Ivan arrived.

"Sophia!!" Ivan shouted

"Ivan..! your here too" Sophia said

"yeah.. i transferred 2 years ago don't you know about that?" Ivan asked

"oh yeah.. I remember.. Anywho, I would like to invite you next week for a party" Sophia said as she handed the invitations to them except for James.

"Why didn't you give me one?" James asked

"It's a secret.!" Sophia quickly replied

"just spill it out! If you don't,, I'll tell your parents what you're planning to do when you get into college" James said as he smirked.

"Ahhh! your really a devil!" Sophia said

"I don't care! say it now." James demanded.

"OK,, your the worst! it was supposed to be a surprise party for you. But now it's not!" Sophia said

"What's for?" James asked intriguingly

"For your welcome party..:) isn't that right Sophia?" Ann said

"you guess it right!" Sophia said in excitement

"Sophia!!! you know that I hate parties."James said

"But it was only exclusive for your friends. so that means, It's only a small party like a get together or something." Sophia explained

"yeah dude just accept it." Ivan said.

"Yeah at least we can get to know each other more don't you want to?"Ann said as Jenny and Tricia agreed.

"ok fine. If you promise me that this would be the last party" James said to Sophia.

"Yehey! finally.. yeah of course I promise" Sophia said as she winked

"so I hope to see you next week, it would be fun!"Sophia said before bidding goodbye

"Oh yeah..I need to go, I have something important to do" Ivan said

"wait! me too.. I'm kinda in a hurry."Tricia said as she pulled Jenny with her.

"bye!" Ivan said as the two were waving goodbye.

 After a few seconds... James and Ann were left outside the school.

"so it's only the of us now" Ann said

"yeah...what now?" James asked

"Let's go home.." Ann suggested.

"if it's ok with you??" Ann asked again

"sure I love to, well at least we can talk while waiting and were friends now right?" James asked

"yeah of course! were friends!! ahaha..And it's great!" Ann replied with a smile.
