Anthony suddenly became so much caring to me after that day. One day while walking I saw him spacing out thinking about something.
" Anthony? What are you thinking about? "
I asked but when he looks at me his face turns sadder.
" Aira. . . it's okay if you start avoiding me now. I'm used to it anyways. "
He suddenly said that makes me curious.
" What are you talking about? "
I just asked.
" It's okay. You don't need to hide it from me. I know you hate being rumored out and strangers suddenly texting you on your phone and on your social media. It's really fine by me if you start avoiding me now. "
He just said and take a long sigh.
" Anthony listen to me. First of all, I don't have any social media, and the only person who knows my number is you, Beverly, and Zach. Second, I don't care about those rumors circulating about me. "
I said with whole honesty.
" Re-really? You don't care about being called a witch who uses a love potion to be close to me? Or the other rumors? "
He repeated.
" What? They called me a witch?! . . . anyways. Yes. I don't care. So cheer up already will you? "
I said when his sad eyes slowly turns into joy.
" Yeah, sure thanks. "
He said and smiled.
" Uhm actually Aira. I wanna say something."
He continued.
" Yes, what is it? "
I said.
" Aira I... Zach? "
He said which made me turn and saw Zach standing in my back.
" Let's go. "
Zach suddenly demanded as he stares coldly at Anthony.
" But h.... "
I was about to explain when he stares at me deadly and grabs my hand and starts walking away.
" Aaa. . . Bye Anthony!. Let's just talk about it next time. "
I shouted as I wave at him.
" Hey, you don't need to grab me and push me so suddenly. "
I complain as I took my hand back from Zach.
" What's so wrong with you? "
I asked angrily.
" Tsk. How would I know if you're planning something again and using Anthony in it?! "
He suddenly screamed.
" Seriously?! I didn't do anything wrong these days! Why are you being so impulsive! "
I screamed back.
" Cause I don't want to put my guard down again! Understand?... You're always breaking my trust and it's so damn tiring! "
He screamed that made me speechless. . . So this was the truth. He's tired of me..?
" I don't know when will you ever stop your schemes and it's so depressing! I needed to follow you around and have my eyes on you just to make sure you won't do anything bad! "
He screamed furiously and his eyes started to be teary. Am I that depressing that I almost made him cry? Am I really that hard to bear? Do I always suffocate him?
" I. . . "
I wanted to say sorry but words won't just come out.
" What? You'll say sorry again? Do you think that will make everything better?"
He said that really made me hurt. I wanna run away but I am frozen with all this conversation.
