In the morning, Hazel was walking out of the female's dorm with Crystal when her friend suddenly gave a tug at her arms. Turning to Crystal, Hazel noticed that her friend was staring in a direction. Hazel followed Crystal's line of sight and was surprised to see that Alex was standing under a tree.

The girls who had just gone out to head to their classes took a second glance at him as they wondered who was this man and what was he doing standing around the female's dorm. 

It was a rare sight for someone that good-looking to appear around the women's dorm. Looking at the way he acted, the girls knew the man was waiting for someone. It was just that… they could not figure out who was that lucky girl.

While the girls were looking at him and checking him out, Alex had his head lowered as he stared at the pebbles under his feet.

For a second, Hazel was too stunned that she was unable to move. It was only after Crystal had nudged her on the waist did Hazel snapped out of her trance.

"Hazel, I'll be heading to the cafeteria first," Crystal whispered before she disappeared along with the crowd. 

Hazel lifted her head again to look at the person who stood not far away from her. At this time, Alex suddenly raised his head. The moment their gaze met, Alex's lips bloomed into a smile. Hazel thought that the look on his face was too mesmerizing. 

A few girls around her started to whisper and talk about Alex. Hearing them praising her boyfriend, Hazel was both proud and unhappy. She walked over to him in slow, small steps and tilted her head to look at him. "What are you doing here?"

"I was going out for breakfast," Alex said. "Then, I remember that you will have an early class today." He raised the bag in his hand. "I bought breakfast for you as well. Have you eaten yet?"

Hazel shook her head. "I was about to head over to the cafeteria for breakfast."

"Then, I'm glad that I caught you before you had your breakfast."

Hazel watched the man smiled at her again and was a little stunned. The way Alex was staring back at her was making her face turned red again. Hazel lowered her head again and her hand moved to tuck a few strands of hair behind her ear.

Alex swallowed as he watched her movement. Though Hazel did not do anything much, her shy reaction made his heart pounded. Hazel probably did not realize how adorable looked at this moment. He really wanted to pull her into his embrace and never let her leave his side.

Her ears picked up the voices of the girls praising Alex's good look again and the unhappy feeling she had earlier resurfaced. She did not want others to stare at her boyfriend.

Once she was able to figure out that feeling, Hazel was surprised that she can be someone that petty.

"Next time, you can just wait in your car and call me. I will come over to you," Hazel said. 

All around her, Hazel could still hear the girls discussing their relationship. Hazel could guess that in a few minutes, the forum would be filled with the news of her and a good-looking man outside the female's dorm. Soon, they will start trying to find out news about Alex.

"Hazel…"

"Ah?" Hazel raised her head again and looked at him.

"I miss you." Alex simply wanted to let her know that the reason he was came over to find her early in the morning.

He woke up early in the morning in a good mood knowing that the girl that he has been in love with for so many years had become his girlfriend. He was doubting whether everything that happened was nothing but a good dream. Suddenly, Alex had the urge to see her and would not feel at ease until he had seen her again.

There was a stampede in her heart and Hazel was starting to feel a little giddy. She had known Alex for years, but why didn't she know that this man can say words that make her feel very light-headed. She was embarrassed, but Hazel did not hate the way he made her feel.

Suddenly, the conversation with her roommates last night resurfaced. The thought of having an intimate moment with Alex made her mind go blank. Hazel scolded herself for having such thoughts and tried her best to stop her mind from going astray.

"I'll accompany you for breakfast, alright?"

Hazel looked at the person in front of her absentmindedly and nodded. The moment they showed up in the cafeteria, the noise all around them had gradually turned down.

It was their first time for everyone to see that Hazel was walking around the campus with a boy and they could not hide their curiosity. The two picked up a quiet corner and Alex took out the food that he had bought for her.

Hazel was stunned the moment she saw that there were a few selections of food on the table. Each of them came from a well-known store near her campus. A few of them had a long line queue and one will have to show up earlier if they wanted to buy the breakfast item.

"I didn't know which one you feel like eating today, so I bought a few."

Hearing his explanation, Hazel was a little speechless.

"Come on." Alex flashed a smile. "Eat up."

Hazel picked up her cutleries and started to eat her breakfast. 

Walking around the campus and having breakfast with Alex gave her the feeling as if the two were attending the same university. Hazel was reminded of what she had said to Alex yesterday and wondered if he had this intention when he came over to find her.

Whatever it was, Hazel knew that at this moment, she was happy.

...

Meanwhile, in L City...

Lily could no longer suppress her excitement the moment she heard the news from her son last night. Initially, Lily wanted to give her best friend, Edith a call the moment she heard the good news. However, once she recalled that it was late, and her friend was pregnant and probably has gone to bed early, Lily had to cancel her plan. After all, Lily did not want to make Edith's husband unhappy by disturbing their time together at night.

As soon as Ellie had left for school and Ethan had left for work, Lily immediately picked up the phone and dialed a number.

Edith picked up the phone after a few rings and greeted Lily with a languid tone.

"Have you heard the news?" Lily asked.

Edith laughed when she heard Lily's excited voice. "Un. I heard about it last night."

"My dear friend, we are going to be in-laws soon!"
