19 more days to go.....
And you'll be left in the dust
Unless I stick by ya
You're the sunflower
I think your love may be too much
'Sunflower' blasted through my airpods as I made my way into school
"Hey" a body blocked my view
It was Annabelle
"Hi....." I said awkwardly
It sounded more like a question that a friendly greeting
"Did I do something?"
What do I do at a time like this? Act dumb. Yeah that's right. Fake it till you make it, yeah?
"W-what a-a-aare y-you talking a-a-a-bout"
Damn Ruby! Can you be any more obvious? I stammer whenever I'm under pressure or in awkward situations. It was a really bad trait that Rainer and I suffered from.
"Really? You know exactly what I'm talking about. You've been avoiding me for two days straight. You won't talk to me, you leave the room before me, and you go to class without me. You even avoid eye contact with me. Look, you're doing it again?"
"Pftt....doing what"
"You've got ten seconds to tell me what's wrong or else I'll scream"
I tried to escape but she blocked me. I tried again but she blocked me again.
"Don't even try to run. Running is prohibited in the hallway and you're in enough trouble already"
Dang! She's right.
I was so nervous that I was sweating
"10"
Oh no. Ruby think
"9"
What am I gonna do?
"8"
What the fuck am I gonna do?"
"7"
Oh no. It's the moment of truth
"6"
I can't tell her. She's gonna kill me for invading her privacy.
'5'
Well, it wasn't really an invasion of privacy. It was just a coincidence.
"4"
I'm doomed. I could just faint right now and fake my death
"3"
They might even play Cardi B's album 'invasion of privacy' at my burial. That'll be lit
"2"
Goodbye world
"1"
Ah!
"I overheard you and Sister Martha's conversation in the room" I blurted
Annabelle blinked in shock
Silence
More silence
Her cheeks turned a very slight shade of red. She's....embarrassed?
"W-what?"
"I am so sorry. I didn't know I was going to hear it. I should have left but curiosity got the best of me"
