chapter 8

Anyway, looking at him with his smile kind of made me feel guilty. I shouldn’t have done that.

Realising my mistake pretty well, i was about to speak when he cut me off , “-i am sorry . i...am lost and don’t know where to go so i thought i could follow you and maybe stumble upon my house. A lot of people were going this way and i hadn’t talked to anyone of them so i thought i could follow you. I am sorry” he muttered, guilt  filling his voice .

which filled me with guilt too.

I shouldn’t have been so rude. I am such a jerk.
“ i am sorry too, i shouldn’t have yelled at you. i am so sorry. Of course you are new, you can be lost. I am so sorry for behaving like that.” I apologised, i was really guilty. I shouldn’t have snapped at him. Its not even his fault.

“ no its okay” he cut me off , again.

“ well it is my fault, i just so easily judged you, snapped at you for no reason, even when you being here made the guy stop following me. You literally saved me and i just... i am so sorry, i am so so-“

“-what guy?” he asked.

“  i told you that i was being followed, right? There was this person following me. I heard his footsteps and as i started to run, so did h. He really scared me and i hid behind the truck. I thought he had left and when i got up to see whether he is there or not, he wasn’t . instead i found you. maybe he saw you and left. Oh my god, thank you , and i am so sorry, i shouldn’t have talked to you like that” i explained.

When i looked up, the question mark on his face suddenly started to disappear and another expression kicked in, astonishment, most probably.

‘oh my god’ he gasped and continued “when i was following you, i didn’t see anyone. you suddenly started running so i followed you and I think you heard me . that means.....” his voice trailed off and he looked at me with expectant eyes.

And it hit me, suddenly.

I AM DUMB.

Should i be mad? Because i got hell scared back then and it was just him all this time.

Ughhhhhhhh

Stupid me.

Stupid him.

“oh i am so sorry i didn’t mean to scare you. please forgive me” he pleaded for his life, as if i was going to swallow him whole.

Which i was.
