"Nikita?"

"Nikita?"

I wake up with another mild headache. I should stop drinking like an alcoholic idiot.

I see Sarika, looming over me.

"Are you real?" I ask her.

She furrows her brows, "Ofcourse. Why'd I be unreal?"

I chuckle, "These days seeing you has become an honour, Sarika- oh should I call you your majesty."

She bites her lips.

"Thank you for gracing me with your presence your majesty, I thought you'd be too busy to come meet me or check in on me." My words fall out my lips like poison. Maybe I have a morning tongue loosening sickness.

"Nikita-" she reaches out for me.

"Don't." I snap, and lush her arm away, "Your boyfriend needs you, Sarika. He's probably dying because you're not present there."

"Hey-"

"I don't even need you to be here. Why'd I need you? I'm just Nikita. Nikita is always okay. She doesn't need friends. Alcohol can keep her company. She'll be fine."

"I'm sor-"

"Let's let Nikita be. Why think about her? She must be surviving somehow. Right? It's not like she has anything to give. She's poor. She's-"

Sariks opens her mouth to say something.

"I don't want to hear it."

I don't know what's wrong with me. I can see hurt flowing in Sarika's eyes, but I choose to ignore it.

I look at her and say, "Don't make promises if you can't keep them."

☆☆☆

I think I've broken my friendship with Sari for good. I whack my brains with my knuckles.

What the fuck have I done?

Why do I have to be such a bitch-

"Don't you dare call yourself a bitch again."

I roll my eyes at the timing of my brain to play Sid's words.

"Nikita?"

I turn back to see Shanaya looking at me with her big brown eyes. Her curls are placed behind her in a twisted updo.

"Shan. Hi." I say cheerfully.

"Hi." She sits beside me, in a slow manner.

"Fight with Sarika?" She asks.

I nod, "What gives?"

"She looked like she's been crying and you were not with her." She says, she gives me a can of hot coffee from our school vending machine.
