"Don't," Kali stood up from her seat.
"You don't have to do that, I'll leave instead. I'm done eating anyway," she continued. After the argument between the youngest a while ago, Kali had lost her appetite.
Who wouldn't? Everyone from the table, except for Phoebe and Vin, seemed to hate the idea of having lunch with her.
Even more so, she could feel her heart thudding more painfully as she saw how disgusted Chand looked at her.
"What are you even saying, Kali? There's still some food left on your plate," Phoebe eyes her plate which was still brimming with untouched food. She became even more concerned at how little she ate.
Kali only smiled at her roommate's direction, "I'm already full. Plus, I need to prep for my next class."
She then left without another word and the whole table went quiet after that. This was one of the reason why most of them didn't want her to be there. It was the awkwardness of being sandwich between an ex-couple's fight.
Outside of the cafeteria, Kali trudged down towards the female's restroom. She quickly entered one of the cubicles and covered her mouth with her hand, trying to cover her sobs.
She was thankful that she had at least lasted out there without shedding a single tear. But now that she was alone, she couldn't help but let the pain swallow her.
It has already been a few weeks since their breakup but she was still a mess. Just seeing him brought so much pain to her.
It wasn't just because of how he had acted so coldly at her nor how he decided to selfishly breakup with her so suddenly, it was mostly due to the fact that he didn't even try to let her explain nor listen to her.
She thought that he would believe in her. They were a couple after all. Aren't they supposed to trust their partners?
But, in the end, it turns out that he didn't.
Kali didn't attend to any of her classes that afternoon. She couldn't allow other people to see how she looked after crying her heart out in a bathroom stall all alone.
She was and still is a mess.
