Playing Doubles

In an international school, there were two female students that have been friends for a very long time and liked to share things with each other. These two girls were Cherry and Pauline. One day, a couple of new students came to their school. These guys’ names were Calvin and Dave.

Calvin was the type of guy that Cherry liked. Secretly, she had feelings for him. Pauline didn’t know that Cherry liked Calvin, but even so, she could guess from the first time she saw him because of the way that Cherry talked with Calvin; it was just so different. Dave and Calvin became best friends. They always studied together at school. If Calvin happened to choose to move to another school, Dave would follow him for sure. Calvin also secretly liked Cherry. She was very simple and fun to hang out with.

The thing that shocked Dave was that he was also crazy in love with Cherry, leading him to try to become close with her at such a fast pace; making his feelings extremely obvious. Because of that, Calvin backed off for a while because he just didn’t have the guts to try to become close with Cherry. But since Cherry didn’t like Dave, she made it straight to the point and completely clear that she didn’t like him. Cherry rejected Dave in a soft way by saying that they could only be friends because it was just impossible for them to be anything more.

After that event, Pauline secretly began to have a crush on Dave and then encouraged Cherry to get closer with Calvin. Cherry slowly but surely became closer to him, which she found to be quite difficult because she was very shy. Calvin obviously didn’t reject her closeness. He was happy with all of the care that Cherry was giving him.

At first, Dave who was crazy in love with Cherry couldn’t accept that Cherry was getting closer with Calvin. Dave got really mad with his best friend and thought that he was being betrayed. Their friendship became so messed up because of anger, jealousy, and heartbreak. Finally, Dave accepted Pauline’s love. Their friendship developed into a boyfriend-girlfriend relationship. Unfortunately, Cherry’s and Pauline’s friendship became distracted as well as Dave’s and Calvin’s.

Pauline was the type of girl that is full of ego. Basically, everything that was hers couldn’t be taken away from her. Nobody could get close to the things and people that were hers. One day, the teacher divided students into partners. By the time Cherry was partnered up, it happened to be with Dave. While they were doing their project, Pauline became so jealous of Cherry. They looked so happy together, as if they really enjoyed being in a group together. She went up to Cherry and they almost had a fight. Finally, Dave came and stopped them. Annoyed he was at Pauline that they almost broke up. Pauline apologized to Cherry and Dave’s relationship with Pauline worked out smoothly.

After that event happened, Dave and Pauline planned to try to bring Cherry and Calvin together as boyfriend and girlfriend. Their plan worked and finally Cherry and Calvin began an amazing relationship. They looked perfect together and everything was in harmony. A lot of people from the school were jealous of them. Pauline and Cherry’s friendship as well as Dave and Calvin’s friendship became better and better. Double dating became one of their favorite activities.
