A Midsummer Sojourn

Roy

Sometimes all I want is that the way in this world to become less covered with thorn. -Roy.

It was a Monday morning. And happier than ever to go to school.

My house is a mess. I honked in front of Aza's house.
She wasn't late today.
"Morning!" She jumped in my car.

"You okay?" She asked suddenly.
"Yeah. Why?"
"Nothing. You look kinda sad today."
I stared at her. And sighed.

"Am fine. Let me have a bite."

Aza was silent today. She played her playlist an was staring out.
She knows how to handle a situation even when she creates
a lot of trouble.

We reached school and she jumped out.
"Hey you stupid Roy. Here have this and then come in."
She handed me a brown bag.

"Thanx!" I asked more than saying.

........................................................

There was a redbull and a granola bar.
I chuckled to myself.

Maybe today wont be a bad day after all.

I whistled to my locker.

Aza wasn't there.

I took my things and went for calculus.

And what I saw kicked a different emotion in me.

In the last desk, Aza was standing. Laughing and showing her tongue to the new kid.

Well..she was never too comfortable with me.

Did they get too close during the weekend. Because of tgat stupid assignment.

Damn! I punched the wall unconsciously.

"Dude, what happened?" Someone asked, maybe Jeb.
I was too furious to know anything else.

I went to my seat and went to sleep.

Why did she give me that brown bag?

The bell rang and the teacher entered.

Here goes on my day.
