"Klerii you have to get up and eat something! You haven't left your room for a week now!" Lou says and pulls on my blanket. I am completely covered with it. Underneath it I am curled up in embryo position. No one wants to see my face. It's red around the eyes. Like totally. Like I've been crying for a week. Which I have.
For one week I have been like this. I only left the room at night to go to the toilet. I didn't want to risk walking into Oscar. Ever since my dramatic exit, I cried. I started as soon as I was in my room. Although I cry so no one hears it, I think every one knows it.
"I don't need to eat! I've been eating enough! I always eat when I'm upset." I mumble under the sheets. "How did you get to the fridge without anyone noticing it then?" Lou asks and I can easily imagine what she must look like right now. "Olly brought me lasagne twice a day."
"Klerii! You havent showed up for work, You haven't showered, nor brushed your teeth, nor have you brushed your hair or seen any sun!" There is the pulling again.
"I don't want to get up! I don't want to see him! He's an asshole. So he should get married! I don't even care any more! Let's just let him hate me." I start crying again.
"So you think he hates you? Newsflash: he does the exact opposite! He loves you Klerii!" Lou preaches.
"So why break my heart huh?" I ask folding back my blanket to look at her. Lou looks at me with big eyes. I can see how terrible I look from her facial expression. Then she calms her face and shrugs her shoulders.
"Who do you think made all the lasagne you've been eating?"
She says crossing her arm in front of her chest.
"He did?" I reply grinding my teeth. Of course he did. No one else knows how I like it best.
"He didn't have to!" I say defiant and disappear again under the covers.
I already know Oscar doesn't hate me. He has been waiting for me to come out all week. I think he even slept in front of my door. I also heard him knock on my locked closet door. And on the actual room door several times. Now Lou leaves. She seems to have enough from me. I mean I get it... I'm just no one to like.
Ok I'm getting depressed. I can not fulfill my mother's prediction! So I sit up in the bed again. I fold back the blanket and Stand up from the bed. My feet hurt as I place them on the floor. I go over to the drawer and take out a towel and bathing things. You know... Those things that have been laying there for a week. I also go to the closet to take out the biggest hoodie I can find. It's one of Oscars. Of course. I mean he practically uses half of my wardrobe because he has three times as many clothes as I do. I take in the smell deeply. And oh miracle: I do not start crying. that's a plus! So I grab my stuff, pull the hood in my face and for the first time in one week, I leave my room. Outside, it looks like it did a week ago. But I dont even get to look at my surrounding because there is Oscar. He's sitting on the sofa. And I ignore the fact that he's just looking at me. Why does he do that? That's like so creepy!
"Look who finally showed up again!" I shrug and look at the one talking: Felix. "Wow! You look awful!" He unnecessarily states. Everyone can see how crappy I am. Olly stands up from the couch. Ariana and Omar are nowhere to be seen. Nor is Ariana. As Olly arrives at where I stand, he pulls me into a hug. "Ok Klara I think you're totally over reacting!" Lou states anoyed from all the attention I'm getting. "Oh safe it Lou! Remember in what state you were when Felix pretended to hate you like broccoli right after he slept with you?" Olly snaps back at her and she makes a face. But it shuts her up. "You stink!" He says in my hair and it makes me smile. "Thanks I love you too!" I say and free myself from him. Then I continue the way to the bathroom.

I take a long bubble bath. With the shower over my head to wash away my misery. I listen to sad music and think about what my mom would say right now. She would say that I can choose to be miserable and if I don't want to be I can choose not be miserable. It's as simple as that. And I mean she's right... I'm only miserable because I feel betrayed by Oscar. What if I get rid of that thought? Can I not be miserable then? Ok that sounds exhausting. I'll just keep on being miserable.

When I get out of the tub I blow dry my hair. And that is usually a longer scenario. Cause when I blow at my hair, my feet get cold so I have to blow at my entire body so nothing gets cold. After that's done I wrap myself in my big towel and look at myself in the mirror. I look terrible. But at least I don't look as bad as I did before. The red spots around my eyes are not gone but I don't feel them anymore. So I leave the bathroom. And when I come out, everyone is gone except for Oscar....
