I WAS JUST A CHAPTER

Chapter 5: Friends? No friends.

Viri

It has been three days and I haven't seen that apocalypse in here. Funny how last week she was seen everywhere and this week there is no sign of her.

It's her body that draws attention to all the guys like last Monday Daniel was staring her and she made a fuss out of it.
Well to be practical I liked her before that but now I do think that she's flawed. She walks like a zombie, stares in one direction like she has lost something.

But there is something about the way she presents herself that makes me wanna ask her about she has gone through and her American accent tells that she really has gone through a lot. At least, the fact that she has lost friends for sure.
Daniel though has a crush on her, I guess. He is always asking about her and wants me to be her friend. Not happening for so soon. That's for sure.

It's funny how you think that you are making a great step while your just doing, totally stupid things. Like for the last three days I lied my bio mother about going to college and thought that she won't know and she never questioned it, of course. But today when Dad is gone, is when she finally asked me, when was I going back to college.

Because of all things, that stupid college sends message to my mother about my absence.

Oh please can you be more lame, SLC?
Is all I wanted to shout but instead I nod at her advise and promise to not lie.
So, this Monday I am gonna to and see how this attendance things work at that stupid college.

Monday,

A month later no one is still genuinely interested in being friends with me, which was good for my notes. But not for my motivation at this lame SLC life. Today, I really thought of running away to Chicago but of course I can only daydream.
Still, the only thing I don't understand is why people judge you on your body why can't they just accept you as you are.
Or is there a technical flaw in me that I couldn't make friends or has cancer done it to me?

I don't know the answer but there's one thing I know. Which is, "keep social distance from Prakti and her group". But my plans were crushed by Bella's voice (God I hate this girl so much.)

Still, I turn around to her with a stupid smile, 'Hey, Delysha didn't see you last week'
'Yes, was quite busy,' I say moving quickly.
'Oh, I see so how was your weekend?'
I give her a look. Like do you really care look. Or is it a prank look.
To which I answer 'Sorry, Bella but I am not available to any of your pranks, today, or tomorrow or any other day. You can leave.'
'I was trying to make a conversation here, God you are a geek.'
'Yeah, whatever. Just go to your classroom.' I said and walk away, practically run away.

Later in the day. I meet this clumsy guy name Daniel. He did seems interested in me but then in our talks I figured out that he was the guy I shouted at, last week. So to save myself from another college ragging turma. I take the fastest way, to hide away from him.
He did asked me to join them to some birthday party this Friday night. But I made no response. You see I was busy running away.

The funny thing is that last Monday everyone was just so keen on making me a act of amusement for them and today everyone is talking like the wanna be friends. Funny people, clumsy country.

I close my eyes and continue to hold her while she quietly cries against my chest. I hold her until dusk turns into dark and what was left of the light is engulfed by a blanket of stars.

I know that you all are waiting for him. But I tell you someone people are worth waiting for.

Until then, I hope you all find a escape, here.
