<div style="text-align: justify;">Ben shook his head at the interaction between Alice and Alastar. At first, he had gotten a bit jealous and concerned. Now, though, he had relaxed. Alastar seemed to have someone, and Alice wasn't the flirty kind, he hoped. He still had the intention to keep an eye on his sister, but not such a close one.<br/><br/><span style="color: #FFFF00">"You're always starving, blue face"</span>, Ben teased, while catching up to Alastar in long strides. He knew Alice and Cian would take a tad longer to reach them, but at least they would keep each other company. When he caught up with Alastar, Ben walked rapidly with him to the cafeteria. <span style="color: #FFFF00">"I wonder if they still make those chocolate muffins. I wanna get some for Alice"</span>, he commented casually. <span style="color: #FFFF00">"I though there would be a million people here"</span>, Ben completed, pushing the door and walking in the place, his gaze going here and there for a good table for four.<br/><br/><div style="text-align: center;">---</div><br/><br/>Way behind the two men, Alice shook her head. Ben and Alastar always did that. They rushed ahead and left her and Cian behind. With a sigh, the girl laughed at Cian's complaint.<br/><br/><span style="color: #8000FF">"Hey, wait up, Ci!"</span>, she exclaimed. <span style="color: #8000FF">"Don't be silly. Let them go ahead. They can choose a table for us, order and prepare the place for our grand entrance"</span>, Alice joked. <span style="color: #8000FF">"Come on, now. Walk with me, here, don't leave me alone"</span>.<br/><br/>Still laughing, the girl locked arms with Cian. <span style="color: #8000FF">"While we walk there, tell me - can you book a day in your busy schedule to go shopping with me? I'm in desperate need of something nice for a work stint I'm chasing after for the end of the term"</span>.</div>
