Forgotten

chapter 6

Okay. So imagine this. Two weeks are over and your boyfriend does not call you, nor meets you or does not keep any freaking contact with you. What do you do? Well call him or speak him on the face. Well I did all of it. Response? Well I didn't get any.

My whole time at work went messed up because I kept thinking why was Bryan not talking to me.

"Is something wrong with you?" Rachael asked me. She had been asking me questions and I hadn't paid attention to anyone.

"Ash, tell me what happened dear!" She demanded again. But I was busy arranging the lockers and shelves.

"It would be better if you don't ask me anything right now." I say with a short sigh and continue with my work.

"What do you mean by don't ask? You have least attended any customers properly. It affects business Ashley!" She yelled.

"Sorry I didn't mean to hurt you or anything." I say and I meant it.

"Its okay only when you tell me what's wrong." She says.

"Ugh! You are so stubborn Rachael!" I say. I still didn't want to tell her the stupid reason why I was so sad.

"Yes I am. Now tell me Ash!" She says obviously irritated.

"My boyfriend hasn't kept contact for almost two weeks now." I at last say, hesitating a bit.

"Its okay! He might be busy somewhere." She says.

"But I see him everywhere!" I say.

"No, like when he doesn't contact you, he might be busy." She tries to make me understand. But she's not the only one stubborn here.

"It's okay. Let's just forget about it." I sigh.

"Okay, as you wish. But now please pay attention here!" She says.

"Yeah. No problem." I say and start cleaning the counters.

"Hey Ash! Can I come over your house right now?" Meg says through the phone.

"Yeah, you can." I reply and she literally screams in my ear.

"What was so much to scream about?" I ask a bit irritated by her scream.

"Nothing. Forget it. I'm coming right at this minute if you don't mind." She says and cuts the call. Well, at least let me reply!

The next fifth minute I hear the bell. I open the door to see Megan standing there beaming at me. I return her a fake smile and allow her in.

"So listen. I have come here to just lighten your mood. We are going somewhere where you would like to stay." She says handing me a cup which she had held in her hands.

"Hold this and let's go!" She says. I take a sip from the cup to learn that she got me my favourite coffee- cappucino.

"So where would you like to go Ash?" Megan asks as I lock the door behind us.

"Where ever you take me, Meg." I say.

"Great! Then let's go the local fair. How's that?" She asks wiggling her eyebrows.

"Okay. Let's go!" I scream only so that she is sure I love it. But really, I have no interest to go anywhere right now.

She took me walking to the fair, which I usually loved, but I really had the faintest interest in going today.

"Come on!" Megan yelled pulling me by my hand to the fair that was a few steps ahead of us. I sigh and walk faster to join her and get rid of her tug.
