BACK OFF

Back off_2

{Chapter 2}

Me...Me...Me... What the heck did he just said?!

I laughed, hardly. "Don't joke like that, it's not funny, nobody does care for me." I said as I walked away.

I walked away but stopped when he hugged me from behind. I dropped the files I needed to deliver to the principals office. I was stunned. The hesitation, anger, sadness... All of it came out as tears from my eyes. "B-Back off! Go away! It's none of your business!" I shouted as tears escape my eyes.

He didn't let go, instead, he tightened the hug. The hug was overwhelming, it was everything that I felt like I needed. It's something that made me cry. Something that brought out the pain in me. Something that changed the day for me, just for once.

I didn't push him away or yelled at him. I didn't do anything. I fell on the floor and so does he. But he didn't let go. I didn't blame myself for this kind of situation, in some way, I like what was happening.

I cried and sobbed while rapped around in his arms and kept saying...

"Nobody cares! nobody cares about me... Nobody......" I was still crying and he was still trying to comfort me.

***

I finally stopped crying. He let me go and stretched his arms to me. "Here use this" I looked at the object he was holding. It's a handkerchief. "What will I do with this?" I asked while sobbing.

"Wipe your tears" He said while laughing. I'm tempered. "Why the heck are you laughing creep?! Can't you see I'm crying here?!" I shouted.

He didn't listen, he just kept laughing and laughing.

We're sitting on the floor like childs, Mr. creep here is laughing like a kid while I'm crying here like a baby. Funny huh? I felt my lips quivered and curved.

"There you see?! Your smiling! That's a real smile!" He shouted as he pointed at me. I quickly wiped off the smile I just made. He stopped and smiled at me. He looked at me with gladness.

"You look beautiful with a smile, Don't be hard to anyone else. They'll like you I'm sure." I felt my cheeks got warm and it was heating up. I quickly stood up and shouted at him. "Creep!" Then I walked away to pick the files that I really needed to deliver. He didn't stood up.

I tried to walk away but my feet took me back infront of him. I snatched the handkerchief from his hand carelessly. I walked away wiping my tears and smiling. I heard him kept laughing and stood up to follow me.

I tried to hide the smile but I couldn't. I've never smiled like this before. Since elementary. "So friends?" I stopped and faced him. I raided an eyebrow at him.

"Why would I make you my friend?" I said sarcastically. "I don't know" He stopped laughing and looked at me. I smiled as he flinched. "What can I do now? You showed me something no one has done before for me." I said with my lips curved into a smile.

His face lightened up then smiled like a lunatic. "So...lunch?" I smiled again and said "Why not? your my friend right?"

We delivered the files then We both made our way to the canteen. While walking I started to be talkative. I learned new things about him that may don't have. I told him everything about me. I don't know, I felt like it was fine to tell him everything.

That was something no one ever done before. Something for me.

[J's Prom]

It has been weeks since that time happened. Today is the event of the J's prom, where everyone can dance and be with the one they like. Of course me, I don't have anyone to be with. I don't like anyone. I just sat at the table at the back.

My eyes searched for Jonathan. My bestfriend. Yup, he's my bestfriend. May and I began to be a little close. Weird development for me if I should say. But of course, I always make distances. I saw him with a girl...a girl that is familiar to me... May. What's happening? Why are they together? What's... wrong with......Me?

I felt anger and pain inside me. I don't know why. I held my chest where my heart is placed, it started to beat faster...and it pains me. Pain is something that I should not feel. I'm cold, bad, and a snobber. Why do I have to feel this way?

I felt a cold part in my cheeks. I touched it and looked at it... I was crying...but why? I'm hard as a stone, I'm not hurt at any ways...but what's this? why?

I bowed my head to hide the tears that fell from my eyes. I tried not to cry, but I don't think my tears will ever stop. I stood up and tried to walk to the bathroom. I can't even try to stand. My legs are failing me. I walked away but before I could, I felt someone held my hand.

"Can I be your first dance?" I looked at the one who spoke to see who it is and my tears flowed harder when I saw who it was...
