Star Crossed

Chapter 4

*SHIRLEY's POV*
I don't know if Jason is Ray or if Ray is Jason I just can't help myself but keep wondering in an inquisitive manner throughout the class without letting him see my face (the moment he's about to turn I'll quickly turn my glares to my front

At home
"So honey how was school today," my mom asked mom I don't want to talk about it hey it's okay you know you can talk to me about anything you know that right? She said in a persuasive way as she places her hand on my shoulder I know mom it's just I don't wanna talk about it okay!! fine she said

I thought she might leave me alone and go to her room instead she went and sit beside me you know honey this is more reason you should talk to me because your silence is killing me, you know it's not good for my health she said okay I said finally agree to tell her since she's showing interest why I'm silent since I came back from school

mom, I finally see him after a year plus she stood up of her chair and said who is that she said out of curiosity I hope it's not who I'm thinking of
no..... mom it's not dad
I know she didn't want to see my dad not after what he has done to us it nothin
mom, it Ray

You mean that stupid bastard you who left you in......
She pauses for a while "I'm sorry dear I didn't mean to bring back your pains "I know you're trying to keep me out of harm" I said smiling

So do you talk to him today
No mom
Why
I just I don't why it happened so fast I just froze the moment I saw him and hid my face away from him but I don't know if he sees me the moment I came into the class
It's okay dear... she says as she hugs me

Why would he left without saying goodbye
Why would he left me under the rain for hours
Why mom why!!!! I kept Sobbing while saying these words

*****

Jason and Andrew were watching Star Trek the rise of skinwalkers at Andrew home

*JASON's POV*
Hey Jason you just look down since morning the moment that girl walked in
What happened please talk to me
Andrew is nothing you just a moment of silence of my own hey talk to me, please
Do you remember that girl I used to talk to you about last year before I met Amira
Yeah yeah, I recall perfectly okay? What happened
She the new girl that came to class today Shirley helming He stood up from the couch as he heard her name OMG he yelled why didn't you talk to her the moment she came in I don't know it was like I was paralyzed I've made another mistake again I just can't stop thinking about her
huh this explains the unusual attitude today
It's just I don't know if she remembers me and besides I don't want to bring her more pain that's why the moment she walked in I just cover my face with the hood
I know you do what you think is the best but you're not been truthful with yourself all I can say is just be yourself and tell her the truth she will accept you back I don't know but I give it a try
Just try and see the outcome
Okay thanks, bro I will
