『 HEARTBREAK HOTLINE 』 "Don't cry over a person who refuses to cry waterfalls for you"
.・゜゜・゜゜・.。・゚゚・゚゚・。 ♡
The next day, Lisa sent you the number. She must've passed out from the alcohol thus she sent you the phone numbers late. Unfortunately, you have school today and have to wait until classes are over to call the number.
School is pretty much hell itself because of the terror teachers and bullies. Your now ex became your guardian angel whenever you're in school, he was the son of the principal so which makes him untouchable. Every student and teacher is scared of him.
But now, instead of an angel. He became a devil. Satan himself.
"Oh look, little miss perfect is here. So tell me, what does it like to have Zhongli as your boyfriend?"
Ningguang and her group of friends walked towards your direction as you were grabbing books from your locker. You rolled an eye at her and continued grabbing your needed things before slamming the metal doors shut.
You mustered the scariest glare you could give to Ningguang but she just smirked at you. Her gaze turned to the side and her smirk widened, making you curious. So you looked at the direction where she's looking at and saw the devil himself.
"Zhongli."
You muttered which Ningguang snickered. The male walked towards Ningguang's side and placed his arm on her shoulders while planting a small kiss on her cheek. He looked at you with pure disgust which made you feel sick inside.
I don't even want to go to classes anymore. These two is making me lovesick, will I get sent home when I tell Aether I'm lovesick? You thought to yourself while crossing your arms and snorting. It is some sort of a sickness though.
"Is she bothering you?" Zhongli asked Ningguang while rubbing circles on her shoulders. He then glared at you, "Don't think I'll go easy on you just because I loved you. Stop bothering my girlfriend and just leave (Y/n)."
Loved. Ouch.
You opened your locker and shoved your books inside them. Tears are starting to form but you tried to hold them back, just until you get to a safer place where no people could go.
After you closed your locker shut, you frowned at Zhongli and Ningguang.
"Have fun playing with each other's feelings you two. I hope the other one won't cry when one of you get tired of each other"
You ran.
The rooftop is probably filled with students who were with their other halves which makes you unable to go. The safe option you have is the janitor's closet.
The greenhouse is filled with couples as well which makes it useless to go inside. And besides, the janitors are probably cleaning the whole school by now.
You went inside the closet and locked yourself inside. The smell of detergent filled the room which makes you pinch the bridge of your nose. But you have no other choice anyway, so you sat down and hugged your legs.
"I wish Lisa would come here sooner. She's the only one I got" you mumbled to yourself while grabbing your phone.
Something clicked inside your mind, The heartbreak hotline! You quickly clicked on your messages and went to yours and Lisa's conversation.
The number to the so called 'Heartbreak Hotline' quickly appeared. You pressed the numbers and your phone quickly dialed the number.
Anxiously waiting, you placed your phone into your ear while listening to the ringing. Unconsciously, you started to bite your nails because it's a habit of yours whenever you feel anxious.
Some time later, someone picked the phone.
"H-Hello? Is this where broken people go to after their heartbreak?" You asked while stuttering.
"Why yes, hello. My name is T, and what can I help you with?"
The voice alone made your heart beat. It's smooth like silk and would make anyone melt upon hearing it. Without even knowing, you started to space out just by hearing his voice.
"Hello? Are you still there?" The person, T said with a hint of worry laced in his voice.
Oh boy (Y/n), control yourself. You just heard his voice, what else if you see him in person? You asked yourself while shaking your head. "M-Mhm I'm still here"
T chuckled from the end of the line, "Well I'll ask you the question again. What can I help you with?"
You took a deep breath and started to tell him the whole story. He just hummed a soft lullaby which made your heart melt.
"Ah, so your ex left you because he got tired of you? Mhm, almost all of my clients have the same reason of their heartbreak" he chuckled, "Well, I won't give you the same advice to my other clients"
"H-Huh? Why so?" You asked while biting your nails. "I-I mean, w-why not?"
"Because I can feel you're special, (Y/n). You're not like the other clients I have." T responded and you could feel he's smiling at the end of the line.
"W-Wait, I haven't gave you my name yet. How did you know who I am?" Your heart is beating faster and louder than usual. "Have we met before?"
"Ah, I see you in school almost everyday. But I believe you don't know who I am yet, you should really pay attention to your surroundings" T laughed. "I'll save your number, I'll text you later okay? And whatever you do, you must avoid Zhongli at all cost"
"Farewell and thank you for calling Heartbreak Hotline"
T ended the call which left you in silence inside the detergent scented closet. Your heart is still beating fast as you stare into the door.
He's in my school and he sees me almost everyday? You thought to yourself, I wonder who T is.
