A broken letter from an angel

🌺Chapter Ten🌺

I am sick of being insecure.
I am going to give all my secrets away.

💕Serene's POV💕

As I entered the school building, I found my friends by the locker. I waved at them. When the bell rang, I went to first class. I was really eager to meet Monster. I have so many questions in my mind. I just hope he has the answer. When biology class came, I grabbed my bag and quickly ran. Stacy was behind me. We sat in our regular seats. But the monster's seat was empty. I wonder where he is. He never bunks class. Maybe he is sick or something. The teacher started explaining about the lower limb when, as usual, the door opened. He was standing there. The gray-eyed monster He apologized for being late calmly, and without sparing me a glance, he sat in his place. Maybe I am getting this wrong. Maybe he wasn't at the party. I mistook it for him. That must be it. The whole class went into my overthinking. The bell rang, and he was collecting his stuff when I approached him. "Hi, Caleb," I said, smiling. "What do you want, Serene? How many times do I have to tell you that I don't want to talk to you?" He angrily said. I bit my lips to avoid crying. He is so mean. But I am stubborn too." Hate all you want. But I am not going to give up. So you better get ready. Because if I want something, I will get it, and I want to be your friend, and I will." I said with a stern voice. I took my books and stormed out of the room. Good. It felt so good. I don't deserve the treatment he gives me. Now I am even more confused about that night. I will ask him at lunch. I decided and headed to my next class. "Sy, are you going to eat with that freak?" Mary asked. "He is not a freak, Mary," I said. She rolled her eyes. I was entering the cafe when Jake pulled him out. "Care to explain what happened that night?" he asked. "I don't know if I was dead drunk. What did you see, by the way?" I asked him. "You were by the pool and he was holding you. I thought my senses were not working so I came closer. When I did, I was confirmed that it was him that weirdo. Then that clingy Becky came. I got distracted, but when I shoved her away and looked at the pool, you two were gone. Were you making out with him?" he asked me, raising his eyebrow. "Yew no..I just don't remember anything. I am confused as to why he will come to the party and act all sweet but act indifferent in the school. And Jake, please don't tell anyone about this." He nodded and promised me that he wouldn't. I grabbed my burger and soda and went to his seat. He didn't react. "Wanna hear a funny thing?" I asked him, but as usual, he didn't reply. So I continue. "I was at this party last Friday when I met someone. Someone exactly like you. Do you have any twins?" I asked. "Cut the crap, Davis. Ask what you want to ask," he said with a blank expression. Without wasting my time, I asked him, " You were there right. You saved me from falling and bought me home.?" "No. I don't attend bunch of bullshit high school parties. That's not my thing. If I were there, trust me, Davis, I wouldn't be wasting my time on you when I can get a thousand times better and hotter chick than you." And this alone broke my heart in pieces. He said all of these in a blink of an eye, straight into my eyes. Now I am feeling horrible. I should get out before I cry a river in front of him. I got up and went to the bathroom. A minute later, Stacy came and hugged me. I cried on her shoulder. I cry until I can breathe. I cry my pain out. I cry for everything I am holding inside. I am stupid. What he said was stupid. A week ago, he was nothing. And now, a week later, I am here in the ladies washroom crying on my best friend's shoulder. Talk about life; it seems so awesome."
