JULIA'S POV
I didn't know what to do, how do I approach him? what to say to him? or how to get rid of him?
The sooner I approach him and show him around, the faster I can get rid of him!
I sighed as I decided to settle with that answer and I arranged my hair.
As I started to head towards Ken, Rita was leaving. Thank goodness! At least I'd not have any inquiries about my past with Ken. Rita is, unfortunately, a terrible gossip, so I must be careful not to spill any words about Ken's and mine's former relationship around her.
"Uhh, hello, we work together now, so unfortunately we'll be seeing each other more, and I, unfortunately, have to show you around school, so, come on, the sooner we're done the sooner I go home", I said not very satisfied.
"Ok.", he said with a smile on his face.
I never understood him, even though I hated him, he didn't seem to care, it's like it didn't bother him when we had to part.
Whereas, me, after we parted ways, I had cried over him for 4 months.
---------------------------
"And there is the teacher's lounge, it's called a lounge because we don't actually work in there we just gossip and talk about the students", I said, stopping and pointing my finger at the door.
Ken stopped and laughed at what I said and I smiled remembering our common moments.
I started walking, "And over here is-"
"Jules, let's stop the school tour here", said Ken. I stopped and turned around to look at him, he stood there and continued, "I'll learn from others. I want to talk about us, Julia"
"Ken, first of all, this is not the right time or place to talk about this, secondly, there is no "us" anymore", I said irritably, even though I really wanted to talk about us.
"I understand," he nodded his head, "but I won't let this conversation slide, we will talk, I don't when but we will", he said confidently.
"I know", I shook my head. "Believe me, I know", I sighed.
We stood there for a bit not saying anything, it was awkward.
I opened my phone to check the time and it was three fifty-one.
Oh no! I missed the tram!
I looked at Ken quickly, "I need to go now, I missed my tram!", I said to him.
I quickly ran to the exit, not wanting to miss the next tram. I opened my phone and send a quick message to Melissa.
To Lisa ;* :
"Sorry, I'm gonna be late."She quickly responded after I sent it.
From Lisa ;* :
"It's fine. Just hurry!"I shut my phone and walked quickly to the station.
I arrived there at the time for the tram. I sighed as I entered and sat on an empty seat.
---------------------------
It was now four sixteen p.m. as I entered Starbucks.
Melissa is going to kill me!
I spotted Melissa sitting in a booth looking out the window.
I walked to her and when she saw me approaching, she threw her hands around my neck and hugged me as if we hadn't seen each other for years.
"Hey, Lisa", I said as we stopped hugging.
"Let's skip the pleasantries and go straight to the topic in hand", she said excitedly as she sat down.
She was always excited about such things.
I sat down opposite of her, "Well... from where should I start?", I sighed.
