Edward was very happy for Rose that she is finally a graduate.

At least he won't be missing her so much.

He tried calling her for both of them to share some happy moment together some where.

But he can't reach her no matter the numerous number of times he called So he left her with a text message telling her to meet him at cool restaurant that evening at 6.pm.

Before the time reached, he was already their waiting for her but to his disappointment,he waited all through the night but she did not show up.

He was very upset as he went back home.

He tried many more calling her but to no avail so he decided to visit her the following day to know exactly what is wrong with her.

The next day, he went to her house and on finding himself in front of their gate, he felt a huge tension and anxiety to knoke.

He stood there for a while thinking of what to do when he heard footsteps approaching the gate.

He immediately ran to a hidden coner around the flower and hid himself because he was very shy then staring at the gate to know who was really approaching the gate.

To his greatest surprise, he saw Rose together with Dandy walking out together.

They looked more like a couple smiling and chatting with each other.

Edward was really provoked.

Now he understood why she had been neglecting his calls and text messages.

He decided to go and meet her and talk to her, finally seek answers of what she is doing from her.

When Rose had bade fare-well to Dandy, she turned around to enter the gate and was very surprise to see Edward.

Then Edward pretended as if he had not see them .

- Edward: hi

Rose: Edward! How are you? (She asked happily running to him) 

Edward: fine. (She immediately gave him a tight hug saying)

Rose: i missed you so much, really i did missed you. - At length Edward managed to push her away from his body and said

- Edward: but it really seemed you don't.

Rose:(surprised) i don't understand you

Edward: (gave her a suspicious look.) you know all, don't pretend. Why aren't you answering my calls?

Rose: i lost my phone a month ago. I did changed the line and perhaps, i know that you do not have the number yet.

Edward: sure! But i think i saw you with a guy, isn't he in place of me?

Rose: of course not! He is just a friend. watch out for the next episode.
