Chapter 17

[The next day]

Y/N's pov-

The alarm on my phone woke me up.

I checked the time and it was 8:45 a.m.

Han-Ja must be coming soon. I asked her to come here yesterday, we'll have breakfast together and then leave for university.

I got up from bed and went to get freshen up.

I looked pale and tired as I checked myself in the mirror of the washroom.

It's probably because I couldn't sleep last night because of the nightmares of course.

I am used to it at this point. They come and they go. It's not like I can do anything about it either.

I had to go through it. I had to endure it.

If only I had Aura here with me to share my thoughts with her.

But I had no one to share them with and neither did I want to share them with anyone else.

With Han-Ja, I shared only a part of it but not whole of it.

There were lots and lots to let out but I couldn't.

I sighed thinking of all these.

I got freshened up and then rang the door bell.

"Coming" I uttered in a low voice and went downstairs to open the door.

Han-Ja came inside the house and sat on the sofa.

"Good Morning" Han-Ja said with a smile.

"Morning" I greeted back as I went towards the kitchen to prepare us some breakfast.

Soon Han-Ja came and slipped her arm around my shoulders.

"What's up with you? You look so pale and tired? Nightmares again Y/N?" Han-Ja asked.

I hummed.

"Why don't you talk it out? I'm here to listen Y/N. Maybe you'll feel better if you talk about it and let it off your chest whatever's been eating you." Han-Ja said.

"It's fine. It will be fine." I said

"That's just what you always say but it's not becoming fine. It will be worse if it goes on like this." Han-Ja said.

"Let's not talk about it." I said coldly.

"Fine. If you want that then fine. But if you want to talk, I'm here." Han-Ja said and backed her hand off my shoulders.

I started  sauteing the vegetables and tossing the chicken sausages on the pan while Han-Ja made us a cup of coffee.

We ate the breakfast and it was already 9:35 a.m. so we decided to leave for university.

While we were walking, there was a comfortable silence between us.

"Do you remember we have practice for the Eve ball ?" Han-Ja said.

"Yes" I said blankly.

"Aren't you excited about it?" Han-Ja asked frowning.

"Excited? Getting paired with that hooligan. Gross." I said.

"Hey don't act like you don't like to spend time with him." Han-Ja said elbowing me.

"Stop Han-Ja. Who said I liked spending time with him?" I said annoyed.

"It is noticeable enough my dear Y/N. It is already noticeable that you and your so called enemy like to spend time with each other." Han-Ja said.
