Acrimony: Bitterness or Ill feeling.

Oikawa's P.O.V

I had pulled the other office chair my Aunt had in her classroom and was spinning on it while silently crying. I felt pathetic crying. I felt vulnerable like as if everyone would know I had gotten cheated on and rubbed it in more.

Luckily my aunt didn't have a class for this block. But she did for the last two classes. But she had a storage room in her classroom where she stored all of the beakers and things. She taught biology and had a fairly large storage room filled with testing things.

"Patch I'm back and i brought you coffee from the teachers lounge" i heard my aunt say as she closed the fort behind her.

She knows me so well, I absolutely love coffee. Iwaizumi would always make me coffee.

"Hey! No more overthinking is come and take your coffee before I drink it" Saito said, she was really a mother to me.

I got up and grabbed the warm cup and then walked back to my soft cushiony chair.

"Iwaizumi asked me if you were in here"

I quickly looked up at her with an alarming feeling coursing through me. "Don't worry I told him you sent me a message and went home because you told me you got a 'fever"

I let out a breath I didn't even realize I was holding. "I would have slapped him but I didn't want to cause a scene" she said grumbling.

"Oh and Sophie asked me about you" Aunty said rolling her eyes.

"What did you tell her?"

"Same thing I told Haijime"

I nodded and sipped my coffee. She was dead to me,no longer a friend. I opened up to her and told her my concerns and worries but she betrayed that trust.

"She had the audacity to say 'I hope he feels better' with a stupid smile" my aunt grabbed a stack of papers that seemed like tests "I never liked her and you know that" and she was right, my aunt loves everyone but not Sophie, ever since the beginning but she just never had proof to prove she was a bad person. Turns out she isn't a bad person she's a disgusting human being.

"Yeahhhhhhh I should have listened to you"

I got up and went to get my phone that I hadn't you hadn't touched for about an hour. I opened my book bag that had an alien pin on it that Kuroo and Makki had sent me from London. I live in North Carolina. The pin had my nickname on it.

I grabbed my phone and it had 30 missed calls from Iwaizumi. His name registered as 'mon amour'. It was French for my love. 23 missed calls from Sophie along with a span of 147 messages from Sophie and 329 from Iwaizumi.

My lock screen background showed a picture of Iwaizumi and me wearing matching Alien hoodies. I unlocked my phone already feeling tears in my eyes yet again. My home screen background showed Iwaizumi smiling brightly at the camera.

I felt my aunt rub my back. I hadn't even noticed she was behind me. "It'll be okay. I promise" I nodded and went to my gallery.

I deleted over 2,000 pictures that I had took over the years. Anything that had Iwaizumi in it or related to him would be gone. Anything with the venomous sophie would also be gone. Only the feeling of acrimony left to torture me.

I was left with a measly 93 photos which consisted of my aunt and Kuroo and Makki. I cried throughout all of it. I thought that if I deleted the pictures I deleted the memories and I kept holding onto that thought no matter how absurd it sounds.
