Anny rushed towards me in anger. Oh shit. I got so busy that I completely forgot about her. "You left me alone bro how dare you !" She yelled and dragged me away from that park, from that guy. I looked back and saw him smiling, his eyes became small when he did so. just like mine.
***
I didn't get a chance to ask his name. I was feeling restless in the movie hall.
"You missed half of the movie, what were you even doing there, Huh?" Anny asked anxiously. " I don't know I just wanted some alone time". I replied. Anny gets worried when I talk about staying alone. She always consoles me when I speak up about how I feel, she kind of thinks that im still depressed about my ex, but thats completely wrong. My ex boyfriend Raen was a gone case and I really don't care about him now. He cheated on me with my so called ex bestfriend. I was depressed for a few months when I realised all this depression does not suit me. That relationship taught me lessons, I became mature And for that im glad actually I can relate with Ariana's new song "thank u next" pfft.
Jokes apart I really don't give a damn about that guy anymore. After the 1 week counselling sessions in my school with Mrs Stacy, I realised that I never loved that boy. Mrs Stacy has been my support system all of that time, I was actually inspired from her. She is a carefree lady with an effortless elegance of some sort. She would have en number of problems in her life yet she would look so calm. She has that peaceful mystical aura which is loved by everyone.
Anny got up and gave me a confused look "movie is over jade why are you so lost today do you have anything to share, what's bothering you so much?". I sighed. "Oh god Anny calm down, its nothing I just didn't like this movie".
"Ohhh cool I know you just like watching SpongeBob bwahaha kiddo". Anny replied. "Don't you dare speak shit about SpongeBob its much better than you're so called romantic movies". I shot back.
"Nevermind lets head back to your house we're late" Anny said.On our way back home I asked Anny to drive because I was really sleepy. I slipped to the back seat. I laid my head on the window and looked outside. Some nights are so peaceful, so satisfying, I thought . I did not feel like going back home all I wanted to do was lay down somewhere outside, close my eyes and and forget everything. I closed my eyes and saw his brown eyes, that intense look. I wanted to know why he was crying in the park, I wanted to tell him that everything was gonna be alright. After all pain is never constant, eventually it fades away and life goes on.
I dozed off in the car itself. When we reached home, Anny struggled to take me back to my room. My mom woke up and thought that I got drunk and I passed out, I wasn't in a mood to argue with her so I went to the room and slept.

" Stop tickling meee pleaseee" I shouted. "Nah nah nahh,what were you saying you don't wanna talk huh" that guy laughed.
***************************
I got up with a thud. "Ouchh what the hell" I shouted.
I had fallen down from my bed, it took me seconds to realize that I saw a very happy dream and fell down because I thought I was getting tickled by that guy out of nowhere. The good and surprising part was that, today was the first time I ever woke up this Happy and fresh. I usually get up all impudent and irritated in the mornings, every single person who tries to talk to me get on my nerves that time, but today was different, that guy did a thing that no one could ever do, he made me laugh made me happy in the morning kudos, not actually that guy though but that dream, still his presence made me feel something different something I've never felt with anybody else.
After freshening up I went down for breakfast. Everybody was shocked to see me and gave me weird looks. "What's up with everyone why are you y'all looking at me like that" I asked in confusion. " You got up so early and you are smiling for no reason Jade". Emily said. "Yaa so what I feel fresh today" I told.
"Thats strange, honey by the way we need to talk" mom came out of the kitchen.
"Mom I clearly know what you're gonna say, please don't spoil my mood. I swear I wasn't drunk yesterday" I assured her. "Well okay, thats good then no more questions. Finish your breakfast and get ready we've to go to the mall" mom announced. "But where the hell is Anny?" I asked. "She's still sleeping" Emily told.
"Mom we both had some other plans for today can I please stay here and wait for her to wake up?", I questioned
"Sure honey but please eat your breakfast or you won't be existing in this planet anymore, you're so thin". Mom said worriedly.
I hate the fact that everybody criticises me about my weight and how thin I was, but thats not my mistake solely. It is my parents mistake I believe pfft.Anny finally woke up after hours of sleeping like a fat pumpkin. I wanted to go to the library with Anny today.
Im a bookworm for real and I share a deep bond with them. I prefer books over humans. Books help me overcome sadness, they clear up my mind like a pro."I really don't wanna go to that boring place Jade oh c'mon" Anny whined.
"Sure not a problem chum I'll go alone". I replied in an apathetic manner."Oh Jade are you for real? Why do you always act like you don't care about me, like why are you so brutal!?" Anny screamed atrociously.
"What do you expect me to say huh? You only told you don't wanna go right? Why do you always crave for attention?" I replied in that same apathetic tone.
"Oh my god Jade thats was so mean, I dont crave for attention its the feeling of love from you that I crave for, how can you be so insensitive." Anny felt dejected.shit.
"I love you Ann you know right? im sorry okay?" I told."Its fine I'm going to sleep bye". Anny said and went upstairs.
I knew she was hurt, but I really couldn't help it, I told what I felt, and as of now I didn't have time to think about it, I just wanted to run to the library hop on a sofa and relax.
