---------------------------------------

Day have gone by and everyday has felt longer and longer, maybe because he wasn't there. I always saw him next to Cindy which made my heart cringe every time.

He sometimes would stare at me while talking to Cindy, his eyes didn't seem the same. I try to ignore his stares but I couldn't, it was an instinct.

"Hey Al!" Edwin hollered at me down the hallway, I ignored it and walked away. He kept yelling my name and it was embarrassing since everyone kept looking at Edwin then me. I quickly fast walked somewhere else but Edwin aggressively runs full speed towards me.

Dang it! He pulled my wrist as he pulled me into a random room, there was so many rooms in the school you couldn't even count all of them. "Al, why did you ignore me? Are you mad or something." He asked gently.

"No, I want to tell you the truth... I fucking hate you. Your a bother and you just cause trouble for me, so fucking get away from me!" It was a lie, I love you and you give me happiness every time I see you.

"Did I do something to you? Did someone hurt you?" He asked me, he was confused and his eyes had disappointment in them. "Yes you did you ruined my life and you ruined everything just stay away from me." I couldn't face him anymore so I just looked at the floor, I was lying so much, I hated this.

"What happened?" He asked me, I just want to go away... Away from this atmosphere.

Edwin's Point of View

She wasn't telling the truth, I could tell. Her eyes told me that she was about to cry and you don't tell someone that you hate them when your crying. I don't want her to go, she's important.

Soon she ran out of the door of the room, I sat there in the pitched-black room that was silent. Did she really hate me?

My heart hurt, it felt like she stabbed it a million times... It hurt. I feel like I'm going to lose her.

If she was mine I would be the happiest person in the world, too bad she's not mine.

That guy that I saw at her apartment when I dropped her off, who was he? It's been stuck in my mind for the past few weeks.

What if that's why... What if the guy is her boyfriend?

My heart stopped for a second, maybe he is?

Alex's Point of View

I couldn't keep my eyes from wondering to Edwin for some sort of reason. I texted Charles about what happened, about how my dad found me and how I need to crash at his place.

Charles texted me back and said he'll pick me up, Charles knew everything about me. He knew me better than I knew myself, Charles is my brother that's no related to me by blood. When Roe adopted me from the orphan I stayed at his place.

That's where I met Charles, me was going to be my brother but we weren't related by blood. I have a real brother but he died short after my mom died, he got into an accident. I heard that he was driving to pick me up from the hospital after my mom died. The thing we he got his by a drunk driver and then died.

My family was gone but my dad was still here. If only he was who he used to be...

Charles soon picked me up as I got into the black pick-up truck," Alex!" He hollered from his car. I immediately got into the car as we drove away, I looked out of the window. I have to go away...
