My Secret Crush

#MSC - CHAPTER 20

AISLING POV.

Adrian and I sit watching each other in silence. Someone needs to say something. But neither of us is ready to. The fear of not knowing what to say. Our mind is obviously vague with the taunting 3Ws and H.

Why?. Where? What? And How?

"Did you get any message?" I ask for the umpteenth time this evening.

"No" The same reply since three days ago. He runs his hands through his hair.

"I knew something was wrong with Andy since Monday. She tried to put on this her signatory 'everything is fine. Am my crazy self'. When I asked her she brush it off like she does. And now what? Andy has not been in school for the past three days and guess what her number is not available. She usually calls us when she's not gonna make it to school. Who am I kidding? She never miss school. Her house is locked. No one is answering not even her mum. Where do you think she is? I should have just pushed harder and get her to open up to me." He is pacing up and down in confusion.

He was observant enough to notice. I didn't even notice anything was wrong with my best friend until three days ago.

I feel horrible. Tears brimmed in my eyes.

"What if she had to visit her grandma with her mum?" I try to convince myself again but then I remembered...

"She lost her grandma since. Aisling" Adrian reminds me. "Wait! What about her dad?"

"Her dad?" We stared at each other for what felt like forever and that was when it dawn on us.

Andy never liked to talk about him ever since the divorce.

Adrain let his face fall on his hand. This is too much. He has a game to focus on tomorrow. With his best friend missing

"I think you guys are over stressing. She's with her mum. Then she's fine. It's okay to go missing for three days"
Max cocked his bottle of Sprite open chugging it down.

"It okay for someone to go missing for three days!" I snap at him "Because you go missing for three days. At least I know where you go. I have no fucking idea where Andy is and you're telling me it's okay to go missing. Does that mean you're okay with our parents going for months. Don't tell me it okay. It's not fucking okay. Something is happening!"

"You're unbelievable, Maximilian" I huff slumping down onto the sofa. I feel Adrian move closer. He cuddle me in his arms rubbing my shoulder.

"Andy is coming back soon. Okay?" I shook my head forcing a small smile.

"It's not like she was kidnapped or something" Max gush earning him an eye roll from me. "I have a game tomorrow which I must prepare for. I bet Andy is gonna show up there to taunt me after I kick some ass"

I sigh hoping that would just happen.

I should have tried harder maybe she would have just open up to me.

I feel like somehow this is my fault. Am her best friend. I was supposed to get her talk about the things bothering her. I was supposed to be there for her.

But then, it's not my fault she isn't the type to open up to people.

It's my fault because I should have just tried harder.

Andy wouldn't just leave. She's definitely gonna come back.

I hope so...

A/N
