“I long to hear the story of your life, which must captivate the ear strangely.” ― William Shakespeare, The Tempest

Malarkey
Argent and Silver's apartment was just a five-minute walk towards the school. It was already an hour past noon and Argent needed to go to class. Pressed by my grumbling stomach, I decided to grab lunch; accompanying Argent on the way to school. The usual place where we eat was on the way there.
As we walked past the subdivision gates, I remembered that two years ago, along with Diamond, Tin and the others, made a 'time envelope' for our personality development class. In that letter, we put our realistic desires and wishes that we want to have after a few years. Looking at Argent, which most people say that we look alike, and one of us is actually from a different dimension, made me remember a certain wish that I wrote:
[To have a girlfriend]
It was just then that the puns of Argent and me kinda shook my head. Slightly fazed, I stopped for a second from walking, grabbing Argent's attention.
"You know, I don't know most of the people in my classes."
"Maybe you should..." I hesitantly said "socialize?"
Argent smiled. His reaction was as instant as my realization.
"Ha Ha! That's a double-edged sword there, Copper" He laughingly said.
"urk....yeah. But seriously though. Get to know the others."
Argent just laughed. But maybe that was it. There's a saying that we rarely follow our own advice. But when we do, it shows positive result. Maybe Argent's girlfriend has an alternate-dimension version too...I'm just not socializing enough to see her.
