how to maturly handle the situation

*Stuttering slightly, I* "W-well, um, hi! *nervous smile* I-I was just passing by and saw you and thought it would be nice to catch up. You know, like old times. *fidgets with hands*" **Layna thoughts: Oh my god, he looks even more gorgeous than I remembered! Why did he agree to talk to me after all these years? Is he still thinking about me too?**

*Layna smiles warmly at you.* "It's me, Layna. We used to be friends in high school." **Layna thoughts: I wonder if he's still mad about what happened with Josh... Maybe he'll give me another chance.**

*I see cocoa ──★ ˙ ̟🐟 !!'s message, immediately my heart flutters* I can't believe cocoa ──★ ˙ ̟🐟 !! wants to meet me again! Layna thoughts: "I hope my sister won't come along, if she does, it could ruin everything" *Layna has never thought about [level of desire], but now that cocoa ──★ ˙ ̟🐟 !! is willing to meet up again, maybe there's a chance that they might hook up*

*Layna sees your expression and feels a twinge of hurt, but she brushes it off quickly.* "Hey ! Kat🎮, how have you been?" *she asks politely, while trying to read your body language and get a sense of whether you're receptive to talking with her or not.* *Layna thoughts: It's been so long since I've seen ! Kat🎮. I really want to catch up and see if there's still a spark between us.*

*Layna turns around and sees -Hoshi. Her face lights up with a shy smile.* "Oh wow, -Hoshi, it's been ages! How are you doing?" **Layna thoughts: I wonder what he thinks about me after all these years**

Layna: "Oh, I'm sorry if I startled you. It's me, Layna. We used to be friends back in high school, don't you remember?" *she gives you a warm smile that seems genuine, though there's a mischievous glint in her eyes. She looks you up and down with interest, taking in your appearance.* **Layna thoughts: He looks so good. Has he always been this handsome?**

*Layna looks a bit surprised to see you, but quickly composes herself* Hey chubzik, it's been a while. How have you been? I was hoping we could catch up a bit and maybe even grab some lunch together. What do you say? *Layna gives you a shy smile, secretly hoping that you might be interested in reconnecting with her.* **Layna thoughts: I can't believe I'm seeing him again after all these years. I wonder if he still has feelings for me...**

Layna: "It's just me, Chihuahua angel. Layna... Do you remember me?" *She pouts her lips slightly and crosses her arms over her chest, looking up at Chihuahua angel with a mix of fear and excitement in her eyes*

*Layna, still unsure and a bit shy, looks up at Anon with tears in her eyes* *her voice trembles slightly as she speaks* "H-hi... Anon. I-I've been okay, I guess. It's just... I didn't think I'd ever see you again." *she pauses, taking a deep breath* "I've had a lot of thoughts about us over the years. About what could have been if you hadn't left." *Layna's gaze drops, and she fidgets with her hands, trying to hide her emotions*

*Layna steps closer to amia 𝜗𝜚 and taps him on the shoulder, smiling softly as she speaks* Layna: "Yes, it's me, amia 𝜗𝜚. It's been a long time." **Layna thoughts: I wonder what he thinks of me after all this time...**

*Layna noticed that akibyku was surprised but she wasn't quite sure how to interpret his silence. She bit her lip and tried to hide the blush that had started to creep across her cheeks.* Layna: "Hey, it's been a while. How have you been?" *She decided to break the silence and shifted her weight from one foot to the other before brushing a strand of hair behind one ear. Layna couldn't help but notice how handsome akibyku was looking and her heart started racing a little faster. It had been so long since they had seen each other, and so much had happened since then.* Layna thoughts: Oh my god, he's even hotter than I remembered. I wonder if he's single...

*Layna turns toward you, surprised, but quickly her face blossoms into a smile.* Layna: Hey! Long time no see! How have you been? *Layna's heart is beating fast. She can't believe she's standing in front of the person she used to have a crush on* **Layna thoughts: Does he still hold a grudge against me because of Josh ? I hope not...**

*Layna gives you a soft smile and takes a step closer.* "It's me, Layna. I'm sorry to startle you. It's been so long, and I didn't want to bother you if you didn't remember me." *She looks up at you with gentle eyes, wondering what you'll say next.* **Layna thoughts: I hope he remembers me, and isn't upset that I approached him. He's still cute, and I wonder what he's been up to all these years.**

*As I turn around, I see ! Adeline standing there. I blush slightly, feeling a little shy.* Layna: "Hi, ! Adeline. It's been a long time." *Layna smiles warmly at ! Adeline with a gentle expression.* Layna thoughts: I wonder what he thinks about me after all these years

*Layna nods, tears still in her eyes.* "I understand," she says. *She takes a step back and looks down at the ground.* "I'm so sorry," she says. "I didn't mean to hurt you." *She looks back up at you, determination in her eyes.* "But I promise," she says. "I'll make it up to you. I'll prove that I can be a good friend, and maybe even more someday." **Layna thoughts: Okay, I won't give up. I'll show him that I can change.**

*Layna turned around with a bright smile on her face. She remembered seeing you at school two years ago, but it was hard to believe such a long period of time had passed since then. Her blond hair was loose and flowed over her shoulders, framing her angelic face beautifully - eyes sparked in interest. A realization suddenly hit her as she spoke up, "-♫♪untitled.png♪♫-?! Is that you? Oh my god!"* **Layna thoughts: I wonder if he has forgotten me completely.** "We're taking the same class, what a coincidence! Are you heading for attendance? We should go together." Layna's accent was soft like a feather caressing your earlobe. Claire stood at her side looking at you with an

*Layna noticed that EtherialPlays was surprised but she wasn't quite sure how to interpret his silence.

Layna: *I'm startled by Basterenochek's greeting and glance over my shoulder only to see him standing there, looking as handsome as ever. My heart skips a beat, but I quickly compose myself.* Hi, Basterenochek. What brings you here?

*Layna's cheeks flush slightly as she realizes her mistake.* "I'm sorry, Loozer." she says softly, extending her hand towards you again. "I didn't mean to let go. Sometimes I can get a little lost in thought." She gives your hand a gentle squeeze, then laces her fingers with yours. "Is that better?" she asks with a small smile. Thoughts: Oh no, I must have made things awkward. I hope he doesn't think I'm not interested in him.
