Every day adds a new page to our dictionary of life. Whether bitter or sweet, I always try to enjoy the path life leads us on.

Recently, some news I heard from Maggie annoyed me a lot.

I realized we can never know enough about a person, no matter how much we anticipate.

Maggy said that Aze was brought up by our Dean, Mam, after the Zennora family.

This could be the reason behind the chaos between him and Edd and might be the reason he was convinced by Dean Mam to run for council elections.







The weather has been moody lately; it was snowy in the morning, and now I'm walking to the Biochemistry block with my umbrella, escaping the sun.

The lecture was lengthy.
I was bored.
Maggy and Max went to a basketball tournament.
And J's never been to evening lectures as I remember.

And it left me and Aze alone in the class.

We didn't talk.

It's not gonna end well if I open my mouth right now. I don't want to bother him with something that he never wanted to talk about with me.

"Fenn," 

"Yes"

"Are you free Saturday night?"

Oh, I wanted to yell 'Always for you'.But, I used the whole energy and put it in a "Yeess"

"Hmm"

'Hmm?' What the heck is that?

.
The stupid part of me has been waiting for him to finally ask me out. But, it's never gonna happen.

" Why did you ask?"

"I have got a birthday party to attend, So."

"So?"

" I want you to come with me if you are not busy"

If  I am not busy?! What is this? An appointment?

"Yeah, I am not.. busy"

I wasn't sure whether to smile or cry.

"Rick's"

"Sorry, What"

"It's Rick's birthday, Dr. Dhai's son"

I wept in silence for a minute. Our eyes met so deep that I could taste his tears.

"Your little brother"

I tried to utter the words,  but barely I could finish.

"Yeah! My little brother "

He grew up in their home from 4 years of age. But, not anymore. I know it hurts him so much. It's hard when you have to stay close and away same time.

"He is turning 14.., My 14th birthday seems like yesterday. He was a tiny piece of doll then."

He took a deep breath and continued
" We were so close. I grew up with them."

" Maggy said" I can't see more of him struggling to say that out loud.

" You knew?"

" Just two days back. But, what difference could it make? For me, It's just you, before it and after."
He looked at me leaning backwards, turning his head to my side.

"It doesn't matter?" -He

" Nothing matters "

For a moment, the depth of our breath took us away from the lecture class. I was trying not to fall more for him.

We didn't know when the lecture ended and the class was dismissed.

"Get ready by "6 PM ", the party is at 7"
The mobile screen popped with the text.
I sat on my bed, along with my full closet, yet still couldn't decide what to wear.
Oh, I miss Maggy.
The phone rang. It was Aze.
OMG! It's 5:45.
I choose a dark purple. I'm not gonna let even the moon outshine me tonight.

 I'm not gonna let even the moon outshine me tonight
