Chapter 13

Daniel's POV

I told her fine, but it is not okay.

I go to the kitchen to drink some water.

"Shit!!!" I say when the glass is broken.

" Daniel, are you okay? " mom asks

" yeah mom, just I wasn't too concentrated " I lie to her

" Tell me! "

" are you sure? "

" of course! "

" mom well, I like someone " I tell her

" What? Oh God you have no idea how happy I am!!! But what's wrong then? "

" I like her, or correctly love her, but I... am so afraid "

" Honey you can't let the past influence on your present. "

" She's adorable, beautiful, smart. Who wouldn't like a girl like her? And what am I? Just a common boy "

I'm right.  I mean she can have better than me.

" what if you are all she wants? Look Daniel, just because she can have a better man on her side, doesn't mean that she doesn't want you to be. If you really like her, you need to fight! "

"What if I lost that fight?"

"What if you don't even try ?"

" Thanks mom "

"You're welcome dear! Anyway, who is that girl who stole your heart?"

I knew that. But I can't tell her that I'm talking about Emily...

" it's a secret " I say with a smile

"Well I hope I will know it soon..."

" Yeah " I say and roll my eyes.

Emily's POV

* Heyy * I write to the group after I finished house - work

* Heyy girl. How was your first day at the same class with him ?* Alyssa says

* I'm good Alyssa thanks for asking *

* I know you're smiling now... by the way I knew you were okay because I didn't think I was talking with your ghost*

* uuuu * Sophie writes * c'mon Emily tell us! *

* well we had a discussion about dreams and guess what? He supported Ava's opnion !! *

* Jealousy entered the chat * Sophie says and I know that both of them are laughing right now

*I'm not jealous!! At least Will supported me*

*Whooo?????* Alyssa says

* Another classmate...*

* Wait, wait Will Corner? * Sophie interrupts

* Yep. You know him? *

* Girl he is a model here in England!! AND YOU'RE AT THE SAME CLASS WITH HIMMM*

* WHATTT?????* Alyssa and me say

*Yes, OMG Emily you're so lucky girl!* she says

* Well I saw that he was handsome , but... I didn't want his support... but Daniel's * I write and I'm just maybe... disappointed?

* Don't worry, maybe he has said it just to discus with you more * Alyssa says

* Maybe you're right *

* As I always am. * she writes

* Hahahah noooo * Sophie replies and I agree with her

* Girls... * Alyssa says

* Yes? * Sophie and me reply

* I wanna see you... but I'm afraid that this year we can't come there because you know... Covid... * she says and I am literally crying

They have made me feel home, even through social media. I want to meet her and Betty and together with them and Sophie we could have a great time...

I want to hug them, stay awake with them till 3 am. Cry on their shoulders. Smile, laugh... or wherever we want , but just to be together...

I never thought they would become that special to me... but they are here for me even when they're far away.

Love doesn't count the distance . The truth is that if someone really loves you, he or she will be there, despite all obstacles.

When Sasha "betrayed" me , I thought I wouldn't trust anymore. But they filled my emptiness with love.

* I wish y'all were here...* I write

*Emily are you going to make us cry?* Alyssa says, but she doesn't know that I'm crying for three of them

...

When I open WhatsApp again I see that I'm added to the group that Caroline said.

* Why did you add the nerdy thing? * I read from the notifications bar a message from Ava

She's talking for me

* Hey * Daniel writes

* Hey Daniel. Do you think we should remove Emily? You know the nerdy girl? * she writes

As soon as I wanted to open and see Daniel's reaction the notification from him comes

* Do whatever you want. I don't care *

Oh . He must have written it wrong. Right? He loves me, doesn't he?

* Ah she came online *

* so...? * Daniel replies and I'm frozen

Why is he doing that? Did I hurt him? Or am I just a stupid to trust his words?

* Don't talk like that for her! * Will writes.

They seemed to like me at class... now they're acting...

* Who are you to "protect" her? * Daniel says

* It wouldn't be necessary if you wouldn't act like an idiot right now * Will replies

I don't know what to write. I ... what does he have? Why is acting like this?

* I'm not acting like an idiot! I am just talking. Isn't that allowed? * he replies

* Daniel stop !!! Why are you being so disrespectful? And Ava ... shut up !!! * Caroline says

Was that a game? Am I dreaming? I hope I am. I was so happy... now I feel like...

* What did I do? I was just expressing my opinion * Ava replies

I should text something. But I can't, I am blocked...

* disrespectful? Me? That was funny Caroline . Very funny * he says and my heart drops

* Shut up Daniel ! * Will again replies

* Stop making the babysitter * Ava replies and almost every classmate are sending smiley emoji - s

* Enough!!! * I write and leave the group.

I lock my door and now I'm standing again. I want to text girls but I don't want to touch the phone right now.
