The next day! I waited for Mathew and Alex to come at cafeteria after off time. 'I am waiting here from 15 mins...where the hell are they?' I asked myself morosely. After few mins I saw Alex coming towards cafe, wearing black jeans with dark blue hood and a cool brown bag on his right shoulder, he waved and after coming near he said 'Hey madd'!' (That's what they call me for short).

'Hey Alex, where's Mathew?' I asked.

After a short dramatic laughter he replied 'Don't ask, he was caught cheating in today's test and he is punished with mopping the ground floor which is always full of students n busy foot steps...hahaha'

I asked laughing 'That's funny..but don't tell me he isn't coming, he is, right?'

'Yes he is, he asked me to wait but you know I have some respect...lolxx,' he smirked.

'O really. Well let him come we will tease him.. till then start doing wobla you are 15 mins late,' I demanded as devil in me came to life.

'Cool idea! But I am late cause of Math' so why should I do the wobla....?' Alex said with evilous smile, dragging out a chair to sit.

But when he saw me ignoring him in sulky mood, he stood up did wobla dance as fast as he could cause it was a public place. Smiling at him by seeing his love and care for me, I said 'Aww..that's so sweet of you.......'

He said trying to cover the love and care like he really doesn't care about me 'yeah..yeah...' But I know him, he does.
We both settled down ordering soft drinks and had fresh gossips until Mathew arrives.

I peered at a short image from distance, which came running towards cafe. I recognized it was Mathew, with brown tight jeans and black shirt and a black nike bag, I awared Alex about his arrival by the movement of my orbs.

Taking huge sighs he reached and settled down. My face filled with big devil smile. 'Hi!' He said by breaking his huge sighs. It was uncontrollable for me to hold my laughter which after a while bursted out when Alex commented 'You looked good mopping the floor...'

We kept on laughing, made funny faces and kept high fiving each other then I realized that Mathew's mood fully changed and anger took him in it's palms and I could see our death in his green eyes so I just changed the topic and alerted Alex by kicking his feet under the table. After a short break I inquired 'Where is it?'

'Where is, what?' he shrugged devastatedly and asked back.

I said furrowing 'Dont tell me you forgot to bring my diary and the pen?'

He showed like he didn't remembered that, but after few mins he unzipped his bag and hissed 'Thaddda...,' and I saw my new pen and dairy, simultaneously my provoking anger was tangled to death and my jaws opened to let my shiny teeths come out.
Mathew handed me over the stuff and I passed it to my bag for safe keeping.

Soon Alex came to the point 'What was the thing you wanted to talk about?'

The fogg of thoughts suddenly enveloped me, the same thoughts which battled my mind last night. Last night I kept on thinking that is it the right time or not. At that time my mind was the one to win the battle but this time my mind gave lead to my heart which kept on pursuing me that 'not now!!!' so I heard what it said.

I replied after a long silence 'Umm.... I dont remember...maybe not now...I will tell you guys soon... Ahh... What was it?' I knew that the reason and the reply was not valid but it would work if I skip this topic.

But in notime Mathew perplexely reminded me 'What? You said you are gonna get rid of your family and you called us here to tell what are you planning!'
I got a strange furrow from Alex...
I had no time to change the topic and I was just sandwiched in the situation so I just left ignoring my friends, 'I will meet you guys afterwards, I gotta go!' I hurried out by not making any eye contact. I know thats weird and huffy at the same time but I did that.

Math shouted behind me 'Where are you going? And what about my wobla?' He was confused cause I never forget the wobla no matter what the situation is.

I didn't forget his wobla at all. But I just ran away without looking back because I know if they open that topic again I won't be able to lie cause they always catch me lying. And 'em sure they both would have realized that during the talk that I was lying to them. And I don't want to be a liar in front of them. Which is so embarrassing and awkward, 'How can anyone lie to a best friend?' And the biggest problem is that they always catch you lying so there is no chance for you to hide something from them. Yeah I know this sucks! And the way they force you to share...that double sucks:(
