Love mechanics FF 2 (Love Again)

Another Love!?

Vee's POV:

Life is not a math equation to be solved so I know for a fact that our problems won’t fix themselves just because we put a certain formula and check it with the answers. There are no destined answers for life. Just like there is no answer to why this junior keeps flirting with my brother or the other way around but they have been at it for quite some time ever since I accepted his problem solving offer.  Now I have to witness the two clinging to each other every now and then. But I still have no idea about how my brother is managing his time or how he is always available during lunches when we clearly have different time tables.

“There they go again.” Said Yiwaa as she nudged my side to grab my attention and my mind was vividly cursing at her  ‘Like I am listening, no need for physical violence’ but before I can voice my thoughts my eyes followed the direction of her pointed  finger and froze at the desk a few feet away from ours.  

“How did they get so close?” Nuea asked but the question didn’t seem directed at me or anyone for that matter so I chose to stay quiet. “ I am really curious about their story now. Did they meet at the uni?”  he added, this time looking at me as if he was expecting a response.

“They met at my house.”

“When? Back then?”

“No, last week.” I replied as I sifted my eyes away from my friend and looked at the pair who were too deep in their conversation to notice our intense stares at them. “I took him home to hang out and I guess it backfired.”

“That sucks.” Bar said, standing behind me.

“Oh! Where have you been?” Yiwaa asked the newcomer who immediately lit up and looked away.

“Don’t ask the obvious.” Nuea laughed as if he is not being an embarrassment by spending his time inside the highschool campus. And I could’ve called him out but my brain is too disturbed to mock anyone else other then my own stupid self.

Everyone told me to move on and that it is stupid to keep hanging onto the past. That I should let go of the guilt and have a life for myself but no one trusts me when I say that it’s not just guilt that I am holding onto. Something in my heart breaks every time I decide on forgetting about it. And no matter how much Mark insists that we don’t love each other anymore__I can’t talk about him__but I can guarantee that the turmoil going inside my body every time his brown eyes locks with mine is nothing close to guilt. Just like now those eyes are making it hard to break my stare away from them. Once again I am stuck in this embarrassing situation but I can’t look away. Why did he have to turn around and look at us?  

“Awkward…” Yiwaa said and I could sense by the way she slides away from me that I am humiliating myself. I finally looked away from the boy to save a little bit of my dignity, if there was any left. 

“They are coming this way.” Bar said as he snatched my spoon and started eating from my plate as if that’s going to make the situation less weird when all of us were clearly staring at them.

“We are going out in the evening so I thought maybe you guys would wanna join.” P’Yoo said when they stopped at our table. Mark stood behind the elder almost as if hiding and not once did he look in my direction which was disappointing but maybe this whole setup is just as awkward for him as it is for me.

“No P’ we don’t want to intrude.” Nuea replied.

“Why would you be intruding?” P’Yoo looked so confused as if he actually can’t grasp the situation and almost believed him. but is he really that stupid? “I am the one who is inviting you.” 

“Okay if you say so,” I replied; even if my brother is trying to pull some prank, I’ll never lose a chance to be around the younger.

‘Damn Vee, you are an idiot.’ I can curse myself all I want but that won’t change how stupid I feel sitting here as I watch Mark giggling and falling over Yoo. but I can’t complain since I was the one who accepted their offer and followed them here like an idiot.
