The Chris I knew and loved had changed completely.

I was still going to same school, having the same classmates and walking past Chris every single day .
Only to feel broken all over again.

As I felt Chris brush past me, I couldn't feel the same love from him as I felt before. The face that once brought a smile to may face, now brought all those painful memories from the past. All those emotions hit me like a brick wall whenever he walked past me.

It's been about 6 months since that awful day.

Now pretty much everything is back to normal, well except for me  of course .

I have started appreciating my family for everything they have done for me . And moved on from the part that they weren't there for me , when I needed them .

Just when I was almost successful in getting Chris out of my mind ..
....I got a call from him




Strange isn't it , all the old and buried feelings came back to the surface

At about 7:30 in the evening
My parents were out with my sister.
And I was , well , home alone .

All of a sudden my phone started ringing with a familiar number on the screen , I was taken aback , I waited for about 15seconds before accepting it .

I thought it was a mistake .
But unfortunately it wasn't.

Chris : " heyyy"

Me:."umm hii"

Chris: "What's up with you and Alex? He likes you, as I've heard. Why don't you go ahead and date him?"

Me: " I don't like him , he likes Lele ..loves exactly. and aren't they your "best friends" Shouldn't you know ? "

Chris: "Hey, chill out. I was just pulling your leg haha"

Me: " over the phone , really? .
how typical of you"

Chris: "So basically you're my girlfriend for about 30minutes now .."

" I felt my cheeks heat up "

Me: "is this a dare  ?"

Chris : " no I just want to do it "

Me : "ohh..."

Chris: " my friends want talk to you for a minute you okay with it ?"

Me: "umm"

Before I could answer..

His friends: " hellloooo. sisterrr-innn-lawww....!!!!! Chris always talks about you..he always  says that I wish Rose was mine."

Me: "really? No way. ."

Chris: "I gotta go , don't believe anything they said .bye love"




And with that he cut the call , and it almost felt like it never happened..

I was so bloody 'desperate' for him, that I didn't realise he just called me because he was bored.

He isn't the same Innocent Chris , I knew.

He has changed, just like everybody else .
