1 month later:

It has been one month after the annual function. I have noticed Richard is not behaving normally there is something bothering to him.

He just remains quiet. there is some reason behind his silence and I want to know the reason and make sure he is fine. he is not even coming to school from 2 days.

I was thinking when someone clears his throat "Miss Jonathan back to earth please" my teacher, said "Sorry, I mumble.

Great, he has not come today also. I have to find out, oh God maybe he is ill or something is related to his family that must be the reason.

He is not attending school. Otherwise, he wouldn't have skipped school, there must be a valid reason. "Valid reason" It scared the hell out of me. I hope he is fine.

After school, I decided to go to his house. I am taking a big step but I am scared and nervous.

I never went to his house alone and especially not without my parents and most importantly not without an occasion but it's late to regret "Miss we are here" my driver said, "Yeah John, wait for me it won't take long", I said and he nodded.

I took the way towards the door and my legs were shaking, no veronica you can't back out but want will his parents think. I just threw all doubts and worries out of my mind and ring the main doorbell.

"Miss Jonathan welcome" their family butler welcomed me, "Thank you, George, is uncle Knight home I asked.

''No, he is not here sir and madam had gone for vacation but the master is at have, have seat I will call him." I got a little relieved it's good they are not at home, otherwise, there would have been a lot of awkwardness.

I start tapping my leg, I do it when I am nervous " Veronica" Richard said hey, "Hello I said, oh good Richard you are fine now I think I should go."

"Veronica wait you came to see that I am fine or not and without making sure you are going," he said.

"I am sorry it just I am feeling little uncomfortable I shouldn't have come without informing you."

"No don't apologise I am happy to see you it's really sweet of you and makes yourself comfortable it's like your own home and please have a sit."

"Richard are you okay, actually you were being awful quite which was worrying me so here I am, please tell me what's bothering you, if you really think I am your friend", I said.

"Veronica you really are my friend and you are right there is a reason behind my behaviour actually I broke up with Hayley, she was cheating on me with one of my fellow basketball player.''

God I didn't except this I never liked Hayley but I never thought she will do such a thing.

"Richard everything will be fine she doesn't deserve someone like you. You deserve better than her so don't let her bother you."

we were talking when my phone starts beeping messages from Ash, "Richard I have to check this," "Yeah sure" he replied. I called her

" Veronica where the hell is you, did you forget your bestie James birthday you were the one to plan to surprise him and to take him to the party",'' Oh shit Ash I will be right there."

"Veronica is everything fine, Richard asks. "No, I mean yes everything is fine Richard I have to go."

"Veronica waits at least have a glass of juice," he said while offering me the glass of juice.

''No Richard next time right now I have to go." I don't know what came to my mind I hug Richard Knight not only hug I kissed on his cheek. The most shocking thing was he hugged me back take care Richard, you too Veronica.

Poor Richard doesn't deserve this😢

Will Veronica be able to celebrate James birthday on time?

For that you have to read the next chapter.
