{Sometimes a simple flattering can make our heart skip a beat , it can make our whole mood swing, it can make us think about the person deeply but so they really mean it?  Or its just a trick they play in their foul game}   

            

                       Pearl's P.O.V

      "Huh!!  Is it necessary for me to come?" Rachel was mumbling all over the hallway. I gave her that bored look. She was more exited than me, I could make that out from her face. "Many things were like a mystery to me and to end one,  you should definately start solving it." I retorted.

         We headed towards thr cafeteria. It was 10:20 am. 

        10 mins early.  Over-punctual.

        "I can't see Nathan,  where is he?  I thought he would be here beforehand. Guess I was wrong."

        "Rule 2: You dont expect boys to be early. And the most important rule, Rule 1: YOU dont be early!" Rachel said, giving that annoyed look.

       "Well he is not late, I guess, we being too early."  I defended Nathan.  I don't know what the fuck was wrong with me. I'm defending that sick person.

      But maybe something will change afterall. Fingers crossed.

      We took a seat at the corner table. Rachel was mumbling and I was glaring at her,  thinking how can she complain and be excited about a thing at the same time.  "Hie!" I heard Nathan's voice interrupting my thoughts.

      "So would you like something to eat? " He was polite. MOTIVE?  Yup he could have one.  Or I was over thinking, maybe?  But, an enemy cannot be that courteous.

       "No, not as such!" I was staring at him for like two full minutes. I shifted my focus, later.

        "So Pearl, can you just accompany me to the food counter?" He smiled. Quite honestly I was shocked that he didn't give me his disgusting smirk.

      Strange.

      Rachel was right,  some people do change.

        Confusion.. was all I was experiencing at that moment. People usually have panic attack and here I'm having a confusion attack. Great. I looked at Rachel,  she gave me an approving look. "Yeah,  sure." I replied.

       I went towards the counter with him. He was busy buying coke and I was looking at my cell phone, staring rather, from the awkwardness - the usual universal trick. Stare at the digital screen while your mind makes a mess of you.

    Nathan handed me a coke.

       We were walking towards the table when my eyes swayed right in front of Dimitri as I saw him rushing towards us. He crashed into me and we both were about to fall on the ground. Dimitri,  however, regained his balance and I stumbled on the floor and the whole coke was floating in the air and it (predictably) landed on my head.

         Instead of helping me I saw Nathan laughing at me.

      Oh! My mind did the rocket science. So this was his plan to - To embarrass me in front of the whole school.  Well done asshole!!!

      He came close to me. "Revenge taken!" He whispered. Everything happened in a agonizingly fast manner. There was laughter everywhere. I saw Rachel hurrying towards me, she was giving me a sad look, she looked at Nathan, giving him a fierce look. I could see that she was angry on him but her first priority was me. I was just sitting there,  looking at the crowd, their faces,  all were giggling.  This is bad. Worse. This was the dumbest thing Nathan could have done. Gross.

       I trusted him once. Yes, my audience - once. And what I got?  Screwed.  "Babe, your MIND is shattered by an enemy, not your bones so just get up and fucking walk away!" My inner voice spoke to me. Walk away? Just like that?  So that people will offer their fake sympathy.  No. Not at all. Not this time.

     I was able to feel something.  An adrenaline rush perhaps. I got up.  My hands and legs were sticky because of the coke spilt. Even the floor was slippery, I regained my balance and walked towards the adjacent table.  My heavy footsteps were echoing in my ears. I saw the coke on the table.

       Yeah. Tit for tat. My head spinning with anger and frustation, I took the coke.

      Went towards Nathan. He was busy laughing and giving high fives with Dmitri.

      I emptied the whole coke container by throwing that coke towards his face.  And not just that. Not just tit for tat. I slapped him hard. So that the sound of hitting spread beyond the cafeteria. My sticky hands accross his sticky face.

      "In your dreams sweetheart! Revenge NOT taken!" I said in a sarcastically sweet voice, loud enough for everyone to hear. I was just faced with secret giggles. But he... He was met by loud, outrageous laughter.

    I was filled with rage.

    Impulsive.

    Hot headed.

    I turned my back towards him and started to walk away from the café.
