Strangers Who aren't Stranger

CHAPTER 5

JOHN'S POV:

jelly has entered her room without acknowledging my presence and I perfectly understand why.  A sigh scaped my lips after realising I had been standing there like and idiot hoping that the door would open and a smiling Jelly would come out. Jelly used to be so happy everytime he sees me at there house.  I remember those moments that she'd run and throw herself at me everytime I visit his brother which always cause his brother to give her a deadly stare which she just ignores and leave. I also still remember how my bestfriend would repeatedly tell me that his sister is still young and that he would kill me if I touch her which made it hard because she's very beautiful and everytime she gives me a hug God knows how much effort I'm putting in to control my raging desire for her and until now she has that effect on me that's why I chose to just tease her this morning when I saw her trying to find something in the fridge. I was kind of hurt when she just stared at me like I was a stranger. Am I too late to come back for her?  That mere thought made me want to punch myself for only coming back now and regretted the last encounter I had with her  five years ago . The scene was still fresh in my mind. It was our prom nigt and I asked her to be my date and she said yes but when the prom night arrived she did not show up. I was hurt and at the same time feeling rejected so I tried to find Sue the woman who was desperate to have me and asked her to be my date for the last hour. I was angry because I planned the night to be very special for Jelly because it was the time I'm going to tell her that I like her a lot and wait for me because I needed to go to U. S for me to be able to take over my parent's company and don't let other guys to date her while I'm out but she did not show up.  I kissed Sue out of anger to spite her because I'm sure that everybody would talk about it since Sue is the cheer leader of our cheer leading squad in school and Jelly was already a freshman in our school so she'd probably hear about it. After kissing Sue everyone was silent and everybody had stopped dancing and all eyes were on us including Jelly's who just arrived with her brother holding her hand. I was blinded with anger so I kissed Sue again while watching Jelly and his brother leaving with my peripheral vission. After that incident Jelly did not bother to talk to me. She avoided me like a plague. I never got to see her at there home everytime I visit because she was already out before I arrive. My bestfriend might have noticed that there was something wrong between his sister and I but didn't try to pry which I was grateful.
I sighed and get back ainside my room thinking of how can I get Jelly to like me again as she used to before qhen we were younger. I threw myself on my bed and tried to sleep but sleep had totally abandoned me and I was left with pity thinking about the woman next door who did nit bither to acknowledge me after trying to get her talk to me.  I just kept on tossing myself on my bed and silently begged the sleep to visit me until I unnoticedly did with her still playing in my mind.
