The cafeteria was buzzing with life, a chaotic mix of chatter, laughter, and the clatter of trays against tables. Sumaya, Olivia, and Raul sat among the soccer team members and cheerleaders. Their table, as usual, was one of the liveliest in the entire room, drawing attention from nearby groups.
At one end, Oliver was shamelessly stealing fries from Amanda's plate, his mischievous grin lighting up his face.
"Oliver! Stop it!" Amanda whined, reaching for her stolen food, but Oliver dodged effortlessly, popping another fry into his mouth with a cheeky grin.
"You snooze, you lose," he teased, dodging her swats with the agility of someone who had clearly done this before.
Amanda huffed, crossing her arms, but her lips twitched as she tried to suppress a smile. Her mock annoyance only added to the playful atmosphere.
Olivia rolled her eyes at the two lovers, shaking her head. "So disgusting," she muttered, stabbing her fork into her food with exaggerated force.
