Back then, Gerald knew little about Maia other than the fact that he was the captain of the team.
The only other thing he knew was that he was very close to his grandfather and his parents in politics. This resulted in him growing up in a rather luxurious environment.
He also knew that while he and his family were locals, after the final exam, they all moved to Mayberry.
Although Gerald was excellent in his studies, he was never good enough for Maia. He would only speak to her as captain whenever they represented the school in a competition. Beyond that, they are not close at all.
Gerald on the other hand, had a very good impression of him because he was hardworking and capable. Besides, she is also very beautiful and her taste is also good.
In short, she was a goddess to herself in the past.
Many men try to befriend him but he will only befriend those who have his own 'specialty. 'Such 'specialties' include being rich or having a strong family with a great background.
A normal person would never get a chance to get close to him. This causes Gerald to be content with only being able to talk to him for a while.
Gerald had not forgotten that feeling, so he was a bit nervous now that he was in front of her again.
“It's been a while, hasn't it? I heard you went to police school. Are you still practicing?" ask Gerald.
Maia simply nodded and continued to stare at him for a while before saying, “So, why are you in this bar? Shouldn't you be working?”
Even though he was the one who started the conversation, he didn't really notice it. His eyes were clearly looking elsewhere.
“I haven't found a job. Also, what do you see?” gerald asked as he turned around to see where his eyes were staring at.
“Do not see. I see, so you have time to talk to me then! ” command Maia with firm tone, as it used to be when SMA.
Gerald didn't know what was going on so he just nodded.
Maia then rushed out of the bar, running towards a young man. Gerald saw several other youngsters running as well, and within a short period of time, the young man had been surrounded. It looked like a movie scene.
The young man who was drinking was stunned as he was pressed to the ground by a few people. Some people who saw the incident shouted as one of the youngsters shouted, “Don't move! THE COPS!" The person lying on the ground was then handcuffed.
Well d*mn! So he's already a cop and he's even on duty!
So that's why he talked to Gerald. He even smiled at her! It was all just for show, and Gerald smiled bitterly as he realized it.
At that moment, Gerald recalled that Drake and Tyson were still inside beating up the guards from before. They wouldn't allow themselves to be captured by Maia, would they? If it somehow came to that, then things would become very awkward.
“We finally caught that little bastard after so many days! Good job, Maia. Let's go have a drink later!” said a tall and handsome man while smiling at Maia.
When the suspect was taken away, some other female police officers came and said, “Wow, Warren, we also want to drink! Why aren't we invited for drinks?” ask the girls with a bit of envy.
“I'll get you a drink! Let's go to another bar right now!” Warren replied.
“Oh, by the way, Maia, do you know the man? I saw you talking to him earlier!” said one of the girls while pointing towards Gerald who was still sitting at the bar.
“Yes, he's one of my high school acquaintances. Back then, I was the captain of the competition team while he was one of its members!”
"I understand! Your relationship will be like that! Ha ha! Why not ask him to join us? He's pretty handsome! Also, what did he do?” ask the other girls.
"I'm not too sure about that and I was just about to ask her if she wanted to come!" said Maia while shaking her head with a smile.
He then looked towards Gerald before saying, "Hey Gerald, come here!"
