Throughout the whole class, I kept glancing at Horton, observing him. He was fully concentrated on every word.
Wait. Is it just me or did his eyes glance my way, without his head moving?
I mentally shook the thought off.
Of course, with a handsy-wansy like him, any girl could, inevitably, fantasize.
Crazy, right?
In a sudden blink, Horton stood up after the bell as Yarina sent a smirk my way. Ugghhh...
"Hey best! What's up with you and the new guy?" Yarina blurted out when we reached the halls. Yes, I ran away from the room, right when Horton left. I thought about running away from Yarina to avoid questions like this but unfortunately, she keeps on calling, "Karelisa! Karelisa!" 'til she fell, face-first on the floor. I felt guilty, so, I ran towards her and helped her up, which, is what I've been regretting at this very moment. "Hmph! If you're not gonna tell me, willingly, I'm gonna have to use force." she said with arms crossed and a mischievious smirk playing on her lips.
Before I could even ponder on the thought of her 'By Force' strategies, I already found myself standing in the middle of a dirty, old, cobweb-filled, scary room, which, in my guess, is Yarina's doing.
My stoic expression falters slightly, when I heard a tile creak (is that even possible?) and the sound of a broken shard.
Gah! Where am I?! "Yarina! Yarina, this is not funny and I'm hungry!" I called out, shivering at the cold, murder-filled atmosphere.
Minutes later, I felt something or someone, pin my hands behind, tying them together, feet as well and a force, pushing me to what I guessed, is a chair.
And the events just made me even more terrified.
Help me!
A chair was being dragged to where I'm facing and I heard shuffling before an eerie silence settles between me and the suspect.
"Now, tell me the fact about yours and hottie's relationship. Please, oh please, please, please, Karelisa. I promise, I won't tell a soul, even an ant." wait, that sounded like Yarina! Why, oh why would she do this?!
"Yarina! What kind of a prank is this?! Let me out!" rage was filling the hole I once had in my stomach.
"Oh, don't be such a wuss, girl. I'm just gonna ask you a few questions. And by the way, you'll recieve an amazing price if you'd get the right answer." she said, in her cute, frilly voice.
Just then, I smelt the most intoxicating scent in my life. Burgers...
I drooled, unconsciously, staring at nothing but mere darkness. Oh, did I forget to mention I was blindfolded? Yes, true true. Well, I am blindfolded.
"Ugh! You're making my tummy grumble! That's cheating!" I reasoned. Either it be the fact that I'm hungry or scared.
A squeaky, rat-like snicker echoed around, and it all but made me angrier. Ugh.
"Tell me about you and the newbie first!" she challenged. I can feel a rueful smile gracing her lips.
"Fine." I gave up. Yarina is the girl who seldomly gives up.
The soft atmosphere turned into a thick one as I try to decipher the words that are appropriate for this situation.
With a short, squeaky giggle (I thought I was about to be deaf), Yarina broke the newfound silence, saying, "You and Mr. Handsome! I was talking about you and him, silly!" Ugh...Why am I blessed with the most annoying BF ever, Master Cow?!
Neh, I rather prefer stinkin' animals when it comes to involuntary utters. And using God's name in vain is not (I repeat) not a proper option. Yeah, and please no judging. This is still one helluva shithole to me.
"Karelisa-a-a...A-are you (insert fake sobs here) even listening to me?" Yarina managed to choke (out of fake whimpers). Bitch it, Yarina! Ya fake!
Minutes have passed as I fought the urge to role my eyes, rip these knots to shreds and leave this bitch for a fucking lifetime. I mean, we are BFF's, it's just that...she's over reacting to this spazz.
A lightbulb - thank the heavens! - brought a beautiful shimmering light to my overly blank piece of shitty (connects to 'sheety' in a way) brain. He he he he he...(take note: that was a witchy kind of laugh).
No choice, sister! "Um, best, do you like that Handsome guy?" I would've used air qoutes but I'm tied to a stupid chair. There's no way in hell, I could escape that easily!
"Why, Karelisa?" Was her one hell of stu-fuck-ttering response. Now, I've been thinking...Why the freakin' fuck is Yarina calling me 'Karelisa' instead of 'best' (short for besfriend if you forgot)?
"Because we're dating and you'll have to stay away from him." After that sentence left my quivering mouth, her jaw dropped. Maybe, her jaw might be the reason why the ozone layer has a hole. And honestly, that's a double sin. I'm lying to my bestfriend as well as faking Horton and mine's relationship. I might need to devise a plan later. Maybe ask help from Horton, make him pretend? Nah, that's a clear, big, fat no no to him. Hm...Well, it's better than doing nothing.
"You and Handsome are...together?" She speaks it reluctanly. I almost thought that she was gonna choke (on mid air, guys).
"Yes. Now, will you please let me go?" I batted my eyelashes, though I know she couldn't see it.
"Oh, o-ok." She practically stutters, but nonetheless, she took the ties off along with propping me up. Yada yada yada...I know, the 'bad friend'. Lol. Just crazy, ya know? And I meant, 'me crazy', alright?
"I'm so sorry, Karelisa. I didn't know..." She said, her tone sad and guilty. Now I feel guilty myself. Uwaaah! "I'm sorry! I'm sorry, best! I was just curious!" She continued, crying uncontrolably. Now my guilt glass is full. Sigh. Stop the drama, will ya?
"Shhh...It's okay. Not a big deal anyway." As effective as I tried, it wouldn't hurt much to care, would it? Oh and yeah, it is a big deal. "Yeah, well, let's go. I could never forgive you if I'm gonna be late."
Then we started walking away, but then again, a raspy voice from behind made me feel curious.
"You'll learn to love me one day..."
Neh, sounds like a desperate jerk of a guy.
