For the past couple of days, Claudio noticed Joe getting ready to stir up trouble in Jipsburg. It made him think of Skylar.
She really had a way of getting under his skin.
After meeting her, other women seemed utterly dull in comparison. Perhaps it was the idea of her being unattainable that made everything seem most enticing and tantalizing.
Just as Claudio was about to say more, Skylar decisively hung up the call, leaving only the dial tone in his ears.
"Damn! I'll just wait for her to come to me. If she ever throws herself at me, I'll have to think about whether she's even worth my time!"

In her dorm room, Simona sat in front of her laptop and spaced out. Her mind was blank.
Her roommate noticed the unusual behavior as Simona was usually very lively, especially now that she was dating Stephen.
Their passionate relationship had filled her days with joy and romance, so this detached look was completely unlike her.
"Simona, are you okay? Are you feeling unwell?" her roommate asked.
Simona snapped out of her reverie before looking at her roommate. "Huh? No, I was just thinking about something."
"Thinking? Haha, don't tell me you're thinking about Stephen. He didn't come to see you much these few days. Is your love sickness acting up?
"Didn't you say he's busy helping his relatives who are visiting? It's only been a few days, and you're already missing him this much?" her roommate, Kelly Clarkson, teased.
