Everybody cheers, claps and whistles. I did too, though I'm unsure.

"May."

"Hm?"

"Let's sit."

"Y—Yeah, sure.."

Harry and I walked back to where we sat before during dinner. I can see Shawn in the corner of my eyes, staring at me.

"Hey everyone.." he says, "It's been uh.. a rough—no, wait, sorry, what am I saying? Sorry, I'm a little.. distracted.." he paused, then sighs, "I'll be singing one song tonight because of course, like you people, I wanna drink."

The audience laughed.

"Ready?" He turns away from the mic and coughed a bit, then he goes back, "I wanna follow where she goes.. I think about her and she knows it.."

At first, he was staring afar, then suddenly, he looks at me.

"She pulls me in, enough to keep me guessing.. and maybe I should stop and start confessin', confessin' yeah, yeah.." then he stops playing.

He just stops. For a good 20 seconds. Then he continued strumming, but this time, it's very slow. VERY slow.

"Oh, I've been shakin'.. I love it when you go crazy.. you take all my inhibitions.. baby there's nothin' holdin' me back.. YOU.." his stare became sharp, people start to notice that he's staring directly at me, "YOU take me places that tear up my reputation.. manipulate my decisions, baby—LOVE.. there's nothing holdin' me back."

He then stops, puts the guitar down and said, "Sorry guys, my throat's itching. I have to stop or else my vocal chords will be damaged. Thank you." He steps down the stage and the speaker came back to take over.

I didn't react outside but on the inside, my instinct tells me trouble.

"Harry?"

"Yeah?"

"I'll go outside for a second. I just need a little air."

"I'll go with you—"

"No. I'm okay. Stay here."

"You sure?"

"Yep."

"Okay.."

I stand up, slowly walk towards an open sliding door. I head outside and there, I breathe deeply. Inhale and exhale. I want to see Shawn, talk to him and ask but I really don't know what to say.

I breathe in, then suddenly, a woman and her friend came laughing behind me, seems like they didn't know I was there. When I turn around, it felt like I fell down in a dark pit, only her and me, face to face. She even stopped laughing, her face went straight, expressionless but I can see her surprise.

Instinct's correct again in the first place. The woman I kept hearing before, it was her. I shouldn't have doubt it. No other than the girl who made my college life miserable. Both for Shawn and I.

Her name is Yuna. Yuna Danwilb. She changed a lot. Even her hair. Dyed it to brown and she became more of herself. A terrifying improvement.
