We Belong Together

Chapter 2

"But Babe, I missed you on my arm at night," Ryan whined

"You will survive without Karen for one day, Ryan" I rolled my eyes

I was sitting with my friends outside the University on the grass. We were all talking about how was our uni was going so far. I never imagined being friends with the most popular people in University. You would think that they would be arrogant, annoying, bit*hy and would have a non-serious attitude towards studies being popular. But you would be dead wrong. They are actually very kind and we have each other's backs whenever we get into trouble. I guess not all popular kids are mean in every school.

I met Sarah during my freshmen year at Walton High School. I was a complete introvert at that time and I didn't have any friends because I thought that they would betray you, but my friends have proved me wrong. I and Sarah started to talk at an English class during a project that was assigned to us. After that, we became close friends. We started to hang out together and had lots of fun. Karen was another story.

I met her at a bookstore. We both wanted to buy the same novel and unfortunately, it was the last copy. Just as I was going to pick it up from the shelf and she snatched it from me saying she wanted it. Me being me I politely told her to request for another copy. But Karen being Karen she had to throw a tantrum about it. After some more negotiations, we agreed that she would read it first and then give it to me and I could keep the novel. How could I refuse when she would be giving the novel to me for free? So we exchanged phone numbers and every day I'd text her asking whether she had finished it yet. I kept on telling her to hurry up,but she took her time. I got it back after a whole week. But after that, we kept in touch and became good friends. Surprisingly, we even ended up in the same university. So you can imagine how excited we were about it.

I know Ryan as he is Karen's boyfriend and let me tell you that guy is so whipped. He can not do anything without her. Let me not forget about Zaid. He is my dad's friend's son.He is studying medicine. He is a very good friend of mine and like a brother to me. But he is always late when we all want to meet up. He doesn't think about anything except this studies.

"I don't think Doctor Zaid is going to show up today either," Sarah sighed

"We should call him and tell him that he needs to check out Sarah's heart which starts beating at an abnormal rate when-" Karen teased

"Oh shut up" Sarah cut her off, slapping her arm playfully

"Child abuse is a very bad thing, won't want my dear Sarah to get into trouble" Karen dramatically said as she rubbed her arm where Sarah had hit. I am sure it hurts a lot because Sarah hits like a man! Seriously you wouldn't want to get on her bad side.

"Child abuse? Looks more like animal abuse to me!" Ryan said to Karen with a mischievous glint in his eyes

"Ryan, you bloody asshole! Don't you dear talk to me or even touch me now" Karen said angrily

"I was joking babe!"Ryan said

"Joking, my foot!" she retorted

"I'm sorry nah"

"No"

"I love you"

"I know"

And this continued for a long time. This happens every day so don't worry, they're gonna make up the next minute. I've always wanted to have such a loving relationship with someone but I don't date and I am not going to marry anyone, so I guess no.

"Let's go to Starbucks. I am craving for some frappuccino," I say

"What if Zaid shows up?" Sarah asked
