CELINA POV:

I was mess..
I am a mess right now..
It's been one week since the incident happened between me and Dexter.
I can't even call by bestfriend puffy because I know what she will say. She would be like 'let's kick his ass' etc.etc.
And I don't want that kind of drama right now.

Ringgg!!
Call of the devil. Yeah it's puffy.
Ugh! Not right now.
I ignore the call.
Ringg!
I ignore it.
Ringgg!
Okay that's it.

"What do you want?" I ask getting agitated.
"Woah! I just got 2 tickets to your favorite comedian. He is having a show here in queen fields and I wanted to ask you if you wanna go?"
Ofcourse i wanna go my favorite comedian Peakaboo.
His real name no one knows. This name is just his fake name i guess.
But nevertheless his previous YouTube video hit 1 million in just 3 days.
I know right awesome..
"Hellloooo, Celina, are you there?"
"Yes, yes I would be coming. Tell me time and place?"
"Boston theater, 501 Street, 6p.m, Thursday."
"Cool. I'll meet you then"

Days till Thursday went by in blur.
Why?
Cause I've been a mourning mess.
I wake up, cry eat, cry a little more and sleep. This has been my daily routine.
You would think don't my parents asks me why am I in this situation. But let me tell you they are hardly home to notice my emotional condition.

Today is Thursday and I am getting prepared for the show. Dark blue denim jeans, light blue crop top with ballon sleeves. Some eyeliner and some lip balm. Done!
Perfect!

I reach to the theater cause puffy asked me she has the tickets so she will hand over to me those tickets when she will reach here.
I waited for around 10 minutes and saw my bestie coming towards me.
"Hey! Did I make you wait for long?" she asks.
"Kinda yes, but its okay. Do you have the tickets? Lets go"
"Yeah baby woohooo"

As I enter the theater giggling when my best friend cracks a joke. I know I didn't tell her why I am upset. Hell I didn't tell her why I am upset. But I know that she would understand my mood. After all she has been with me since long.

As we stroll to our seat I notice someone is watching me. And as I look at a little side. My heart stops.
Again..
Shit!
Dexter!
What in the world.
Why is he here?

And he is looking directly at me. Just staring. I see his best friend Jessy nudging him. But he doesn't look at him and then Jessy sees me and smiles at me giving a little nod.
I nod back and cutting the stare game I take our seat.

His seat is a little further away but I know he is watching me.

It was a torturous 2 hours. I couldn't concentrate on my favorite comedian. I know that sounds wierd. But when I am in his presence and I am pretty much conscious that he is around me. My mind gets all foggy due to him.

After the end credits people start leaving the place and me and puffy also get in the line to leave. Finally we are out and I can breathe fresh air.
Thank Lord!

"Hey celina" I hear someone say.
I turn around and see Dexter and his best friend Jessy coming towards me and puffy.
I smile at him. "Hi Jessy"
"So do you like this comedian?"
"Yeah! He's my favorite. What about you?"
"Really? He's my favorite too. You see Dexter doesn't like him but somehow I managed to bring him here"
I smile again.

I know Dexter is looking at me. Silently observing me. Thinking about his next step. But this time i won't allow him to break me. I will stay away from him as much as possible. I...
"Hi celina"
And my will power is gone.
"Hi dexter"
"Can I talk to you for a second alone?"
I look to my bestie and she gives a green signal.
Leaving puffy and Jessy to talk among them we go a little further away. Atleast out from their hearing area.

"So Celina, I wanted to talk about that day"
He starts,
I mean what does he want to talk about?
"And what is that ?" I say politely.
He sighs.
"Celina, I know if I say sorry it would not be enough. I know I was harsh and trust me I would take all things back if I could. But that day I was angry on my little brother and it kinda vented on you"
That's not a reason to shout on people. And hurt them and break their heart.
"Sooo?"
He sighs again,
"So Celina, I would be happy if we could be friends again?"
Hell no.
"Umm sure" I shrug a little.
"Really" he asked surprised.
"Yes really" I say ..
Big man if you think I'm gonna fall for you again. You're W-R-O-N-G.

I might be 15 but I ain't stupid. If I allow you even once more into my heart; I know you'll break it at the very next moment.

"So ill text you then?" He says,
"Okay" I say and leave him hanging without saying bye and going to my bestie.
"Shall we go?" I ask puffy.
"Yeah I was just gonna ask you that"
"Hmm let's goo, bye jessy"
"Bye celina"

As we start walking to get to our bus puffy asks me what was bothering me and like a very good friend I am. I rant her everything.
She tells me I should block him or something but I tell her that now this game is gonna be played by my rules.
Hehe. Evil laugh!

As I reach at my house I take a much needed shower and lie on my bed. Taking my phone I open snap and notice Dexter's text. I ignore it not in a mood to reply to him and I see a request from one person.
It says Jes_sy007.
Lol. Who is this.
I accept it and immediately his snap comes.
I open the snap and see Jessy Dexter's best friend posing his tongue out and under it is written.
Hello child.
Idiot .. how dare he calls me child. But he is funny nonetheless.
So I do the same pose and say .
Hello uncle..
Hahah..
His snap comes right after. In that snap there is a filter of an old man beard. And it says.
I am a very handsome uncle.
Haha. Such an idiot.
I reply to him with a snap saying.
The feeling isn't mutual.
His snap comes again but I don't bother to open it as I am tired and I want to sleep.

I pray to God and wish from him that just maybe things turn out to be good next day.

'You can play the song now'
