บท 166: Love, they bullied me!

Following Rika's suggestion, they went to a fancy restaurant where Rika already planned to pig out alone. 

Currently, Lexi sat across her somewhat newfound friend. As they wait for their orders to arrive, Rika giddily opened a conversation. "Tell me, tell me, are you and…" she paused as she examined Lexi's inexpressive front.

Slightly furrowed her brows, Lexi repeated in a questioning tone, "me and…?"

"Uhmm, Eli a thing?"

Upon hearing her question, Lexi's unchangeable front immediately turned to a dismayed one. "Eww, no way!" 

Her response cracked Rika up as she burst out laughing while lightly slamming her palms at the surface of the square table. After a two-minute good laughed, Rika recovered, or so she thought.

"I wonder what will his fans say if they heard you, pftt--! Hahaha! the nation's prince being 'eew-ed'! Pfft-! That was gold!" Rika stated in between her unrestrained laughs.
