They say opposites attract but what if two people do the same exact thing with different attitudes? Not so opposite now or are they?
..
Raven likes to mind her buisness cuz she hates it when others talk about her's and that happens a lot even tho s...

I don't have any idea on what to say now her expression is blank but she said that with a smile, Why would she say that with a smile?
"You go through it too?" I ask
Chuckling she says "Of course I do, after all we are similar aren't we?"
"We get the same grades just not the same recognition."
"What do you have to deal with?"
"Well for starters I'm constantly ridiculed."
"Why?"
"Cuz I don't act like a normal teenager, I never say anything indecent or am ever caught in a commotion, apparently that makes me soft."
"That's it so basically they make fun of you for being a decent human being!?" I say with anger.
She looks at me with wide eyes surprised by my outburst.
"Woah calm down it's no big deal."
I blush a little and look around to see if anyone saw me this is so wierd I've never ever shouted like that, that too for someone I am not even that close with.
"It's a wierd world, the standards of this society are so twisted. On one hand the adults want us to live like chaste priests and on the other hand our own age group wants us to act as vulgar as we can." She says, still with that blank expression but this time there is more emotion in her eyes.
"Well everyone's desperate for attention aren't they."
"Then why do they gotta put a leg in other people's buisness I don't wish to be involved, is that so hard to understand!" She says with an irritated experssion but that changes when her eyes meet mine.
"I'm sorry I didn't mean to lash out like that."
"It's fine besides it's not good to bottle up your emotions."
"No I mean sorry for bothering you with all this I'm usually not this vocal about my problems, I must sound like a teenage girl in some drama." She says chuckling.
"But you are a teenage girl caught in some drama."
Realisation hits her face and I couldn't hold my laughter in.
"I swear I am better than this." She said hesitantly.
Stopping my laugh I say "oh it's fine I already have a good image of you in my mind you don't have to worry about your reputation with me."
"Oh really then do tell me what image do you have of me in that intelligent brain of yours." Her tone suddenly changes to a very smooth and slightly teasing one.
Now it's my turn to blush "Well I - uh you are a good person, you definitely don't like to be involved with drama but I can't decide if that's because you don't like it."
"Hmm~ what would you say if I told you I like it."
"Well everyone has their preferences who am I to judge you for them."
"It's not about judging but say if someone close to you did a thing that pissed you off a little would that not bother you one bit?"
"Well yes it would but .... you are not close to me are you." I was a bit hesitant to say this because I thought it might make her mad but if I think about it why do I even care if this does make her mad I just said it didn't I I'm not close to her.
Surprisingly it doesn't look like she's mad still having a smile on her face.
"That's correct we are just project partners afterall not even deskmates."
"Yes."
"But would it bother you if we were more than that?"
As I hear this question the waiter comes with the bill.
We both pay for our halves and then decide to finish our work for today as the cafe was closing leaving her question unanswered as we both go back home.
But even if I could I don't know the answer, would it bother me I don't know, for the most part I don't have any friends but something tells me she wasn't asking to be my friend either.
Author's note: Wonder how closer raven was asking to be 👀. Pls vote and comment
