Bully Lord

Part-146

As they continued to observe Toya, they noticed that she seemed to be particularly interested in her phone. Perhaps, they thought, they could try to get close to her through her phone.

But then they thought reaching with her phone would be worst idea, she may complained against them they are harrasing her.

"Man, I never thought approaching a woman would be this tough," Ryan said with a sigh, leaning against the wall.

James looked at him, a mix of curiosity and amusement on his face. "You haven't even tried to approach her yet. I've heard you can rizz girls effortlessly. Why don't you give it a shot and woo her?"

Ryan glanced at James, then at Toya, who was across the room, talking to some friends. He looked back at James, raising an eyebrow. "I think you've got it wrong. I never woo girls. I was just born handsome, and the rizz happens automatically."

James laughed, shaking his head. "Then get over there and let your automatic rizz do its thing! What's stopping you?"

Ryan shrugged, looking more serious. "I don’t think so. Girls like her would probably reject me right away. I don’t want to hurt my pride. Besides, if you already have a bad relationship with her, that means you two actually talk. Just go and ask her yourself."

James hesitated, scratching his head. "How many times I will have to tell you this, I'm not comfortable around her. She's always so cold and distant. I feel like I can't get through to her."

Ryan smirked. "So, you're saying the great James is intimidated by a girl? That's a first."

James rolled his eyes. "It's not that I'm intimidated. It's just... complicated. She has this way of making me feel like everything I say is wrong."

Ryan chuckled. "Welcome to the world of teenage romance, my friend. It's never straightforward. But seriously, if you don't give it a shot, you'll never know."

James sighed, looking over at Toya again. "Maybe you're right. But it's not just about talking to her. I feel like there's more going on with her that I don't understand."

Ryan nodded, understanding the dilemma. "Well, relationships are complicated, that's for sure. But you won't get anywhere by standing on the sidelines. Sometimes, you just have to dive in and see what happens."

James hesitated. "Actually, I'm not comfortable around her."

They all sighed, feeling the frustration of the situation. They spent the rest of the day brainstorming ideas, their minds racing with possibilities.

As the final bell rang, signaling the end of the school day, James stood up, ready to meet with Ryan and Sourov. But before he could take a step, Toya blocked his path. Her eyes narrowed, and a cold expression settled on her face.

"I've noticed you stalking me all day," she accused, her voice dripping with contempt.

James was taken aback by her accusation. "I wasn't stalking you," he replied defensively. "I was just observing the situation."

Toya scoffed, her disbelief evident. "Whatever you say," she retorted, her tone laced with sarcasm. "But if I see you following me again, I won't hesitate to teach you a lesson."
