Pretty Letters..

friends?

He keeps staring at her whenever he sees her, with almost no emotion in his eyes. She was scared. Many, many thoughts ran in her mind since he started doing so. What if he is not a good guy? Does he really know I was observing him that night? Is that why he offered me a ride? WHY IS HE STARING?? Her mind started eating her. She had social anxiety as it is. She was also taking medication for her depression. She was in depression for three years and it had been a year since she started taking medicines. She did not like talking about that. The thing was that it triggered her anxiety on the slightest thing about her being told to others. Staring at someone might be a common thing for everyone but for her who had the least social interaction for the past three years it was not .She was now very much regretting on being having shown such confidence of staring him. She was scared. You might not understand why but she was scared. She was now avoiding him as much as possible. But he came into her sight atleast once each day for the past three days.

Finally the day of judgement came.
He finally came up to her and what he said blew her mind because nobody did ask her such a thing.

"Hey how about we go on a date this evening at around 4? You don't have classes today right I checked."
"What? I mean no sorry."
"Why?"
"Why? why would I? I don't even know you!"
"Oh yeah? But it seemed you know me pretty well given how much you were staring"
He heart beats faster in her chest. He noticed.
"Even my friends noticed"
This was the worst. What now??
"Look I don't go on dates with the people I don't know. I'm sorry for staring at you that night it must've made you uncomforta-"
"Not like it had any affect on me. But hey can we atleast be friends. It would make me happy." He said this Having the most numb face ever.
"You know we can hang out once in a while and talk about stuff?. Only if you want"

A loud came noise from the group of boys who were standing next to them. They were the guy friends of his. They were laughing. It immediately made her insecure. She tightened her grip around her bag. He seemed to have noticed this because he glared at them like  anything. They stopped at once.
"Don't mind them they are just a group of dumbfuc-"
"It's ok" she said in a small voice
"And sure let's be friends. Just friends " she said smiling
"My name is Kayla and you are?"
"My name is..."
