KHAIREE

CHAPTER THIRTY EIGHT

"I wonder how he's holding up" Khairee looked into the distance

"You don't expect him to be partying over the issue do you?" Billy satirised

Khairee gave her a dirty look "It will be better than agonizing over it though"

"Don't utter what you don't actually mean" Billy returned with the same look

Khairee sighed "You have a way of getting back at me"

"You know" billy started "I don't really get why you will break up with him when you love him so much, this only happens in movies or books"

Khairee look down, sometimes she also wondered why her life is full of dramatic event. Other times she wondered how her life would have been if she was born in a different situation.

"Movies are some times the reflection of reality you know" she replied.

The young waitress dropped to plates of noodles on their table

"Thanks" Billy said and dig into her plate "But in movies, usually the protagonist break up for his/her lovers sake not for  own selfish sake" Khairee gave her a look "No offence" Billy defended raising her head

"You just rob it on my face Billy, I feel like I'm the bad guy here"

"You sort of are, honestly as your friend I'm obligated to tell you the truth"

Khairee looked straight at her friends face, she is wholeheartedly spooning down her food with a nonchalant expression on her face after spewing all those nonsense and completely ruining her mood and appetite.

"How can you eat peacefully in this situation?" Khairee found herself almost yelling

"Will starving myself bring you guys back together?"

Khairee glared at her "But Shouldn't you share my pain at least, as my friend?"

"Okay, I will try that" she said without taking her eyes off her food.

Khairee hissed and pushed her plate towards billy "Unfaithful friend" she murmured

A hand from behind took the food and sat next to her "Food is too precious to be treated that way Khair" the owner of the hand said

"Don't call me that Khalil" Khairee snapped

"Oops sorry" Khalil and Billy laughed

"That is name is reserved for only one person" Billy teased too

"That special someone" Khalil added

Khairee was full to the brim, she snatched her bag from the table as if it is the one that offended her and rose to leave.

"Oh where are you going?" Khalil interrupted

"Class" she simple said

"There is still time now, wait for us to go together" he said

"What if I said no?"

"Find your way then, thank god the school is not new to us" Billy gave her a cheeky grin

"Traitor" she blurted at her friend and stormed out of the café

"Do you think she's mad at us" Khalil asked, feeling bad for teasing her.

"Don't worry it won't last" Billy assured

"How sure are you"

She smiled "Khairee doesn't hold grudge"

Khalil smiled at that. Just then a call came into his phone, it was his sister fadila.

"Uhm what is it" He asked immediately he placed the phone to his ear. There was a pause
