Four Months Later...
Karlie's P.O.V
"Mr Shams, I'm taking my lunch break now." I state walking out of my new bosses office. I knew when I was last here giving the presentation about bullying that I needed to fix the things from my past so that I may in time move on. It's was never Taylor's fault that out of all the people at our High School I took a liking to her but then Cara caught on, she would tease me relentlessly, not to mention our supposed group leader Gigi Hadid who if she had known that I actually liked Taylor a lot it would have made it that much worse. I've never spoken to anyone about how much I like Taylor and even to this day I really believe that no one was ever aware that I liked her, but I'm hoping the change that one day, and what better way to do it than invest myself into her world.
As I walk into the break room and towards the fridge I see Taylor sitting at a table, or what I've come to call 'her table' she always sits there and she never moves anywhere else and just like every other day I grab my pre-made lunch and join her, sitting at the table. We never speak because the last time I spoke to her I ended up having a one way conversation and sounding like a complete idiot. Eventually one day I just stopped trying to talk to her, I figure that when she's ready she will talk to me or at least ask me why I'm even here. She was pretty vocal when I came for the Anti-Bullying talk about how much of a hypocrite I am so maybe she will ask me, if she does it will be progress because at the moment she doesn't want to talk at all.
Another few months go by without Taylor talking to me but then one day as I walk into the break room and Taylor isn't alone, sitting with Taylor is a woman, older than us but I can see similarities and so it must be some type of relative. As I walk in the woman smiles at me, "hi there, I'm Andrea. Do you work here?" I nod and move towards the fridge to get my stir-fry that I brought for lunch today. "Uhm yeah, just started a few months ago. I work for Mr Shams, I came a few months ago to do a presentation on Anti-Bullying in the workplace and then I got offered a job so I stayed." Andrea nods at me and then says, "so you must know my daughter, Taylor. Taylor Swift. She works here in the advertising department for Mr Shams." I nod,
"Yeah, I actually went to school with Taylor as well." I state as Andrea looks at me.
"Oh, what's your name maybe I know of you." I want to be rude and say that it's none of her business but to be perfectly honest, I've spent four years of my life bullying her daughter and so I guess if she knows who I am then she knows who I am, there's nothing I can do to stop that and she deserves to know. "Karlie, Karlie Kloss." I then watch as her face goes from smiling to frowning at me. "Oh, you used to bully Taylor at high school." I gulp and nod.
"Yes mam," I stammer as the door to the room opens and the florally scent that I've come to recognize as Taylor's smell comes in. "Mom...what a surprise. Karlie, Mr Shams was looking for you." I nod and hand her my stir-fry before rushing from the room.
Taylor's P.O.V
"Taylor, that's the girl who bullied you..." my mom states as Karlie rushes out. I turn and nod at her, "yes it is, and she's also now a collegue so if you don't mind keeping that fact to yourself, I quite like my job here." I watch as mom opens her mouth and then closes it.
"So just like that you forgive her?" I sigh but turn to her,
"No I don't just forgive her like that she made my life hell, but there's more to life than being bitter and that's what I've become lately and I need and want it to stop. What happened to me at high school was rough and I guess what's always hurt more is that I really liked Karlie, I thought she as super sweet and smart and I guess that's what got me at the time. That I was rejected in a sense." My mom nods, "I understand, maybe bring her around for dinner one night. I'll make your favourite if you can prove that it doesn't bother you anymore." I look at her,
"Chicken pot pie? Key lime pie?" I question as those are my favourites and she nods,
"Of course, if you are really over it, it shouldn't be a problem right?" I sigh and smile a little as I lead my mother out, we are going out for lunch so I put Karlie's lunch away, mentally reminding myself to talk to her later about dinner. 'Can't wait to see how it goes,' I think sarcastically.
