A portrait of the unseen [COMPLETE]

CH3 Stay

"Are you really in a relationship.."

"And we didn't know?"

after classes, we decided to eat at the cafeteria

"Shhhh...##" I signal to both of them

"You really want to mess this up?" My friend looks a bit disappointed

Steve just sat and stared

"Sorry, I need to," I explained while eating the food my girlfriend prepared

"Really... okay, okay? " they immediately understand

"But how'd you guys met, though??"

I smile. "That's when I was on my grade 10...." and started my story

"Are you sure you're into modelling!!??" The scream of the photographer scares my whole body

my mind can't think ok anything. "If you're too dumb to do a simple JOB.....-" My mind stops

I ran till no one could see me, my tears fell easily every drop was too heavy, I couldn't even holt it

im only 16 years old, but why is the world too harsh to me

I tried to search for my auntie, but I couldn't see her anywhere

my parents are still alive, but we're broken family, so I stay with my auntie

she supports me in what I want to do, but It's too hard

should I give up?

but I really love to be a famous artist/model

will I be

those thoughts surround me

till I cry like no tomorrow

will I be better

should I change my career??

am I not suitable for this

Can I still survive with this world

I cry while I run

finding somewhere I can cry out loud

after running around, I found a safe spot. It's like a ba k of a building

there's plants everywhere and a bench

I sat and cried out loud

I cried continuously for almost 15 minutes already

"..."

someone appears in front of me handing me a handkerchief

I just stared at her

she's tall and looks a bit scary

I didn't move any bit and just stared

I didn't even say a word

but she didn't remove her hand with handkerchief

"wh-" Im about to say a word, but she interrupted me

"it's clean," she says. Her voice is a bit deep but so calming

"..." she waved the handkerchief near my face

I just stared at it for a few minutes

".."

"Thank you..." I grab the handkerchief while still crying in silence

but her voice and gestures calm me a bit
