The hallway was filled with chatter, the sound of slamming lockers, the students standing with their friends. I was trying to walk through the hallway . The thing that Mama said kept bothering me the whole weekend. I don't even know why I am thinking so hard about it.

Somewhere in my heart I just know Mama is right when feelings get involved. I tend to shut people out, I don't want to deal with it. That's why I don't do relationships or dating. It's just Tiring psychically and mentally.

I want to focus on my studies, I want to stand on my feet and then think about dating. I have tried dating. It's not like I don't develop feelings or can't feel love or anything just the thing is I don't want to. Should I give it a try? Can someone like a person like me? Ah! I don't know just don't think just leave let's just go with the flow.

"Mia! Hey where are you going, are you ignoring me?". I stopped walking as I heard Leah's voice and turned to see I passed by her sighing to myself I walked towards her.

"Sorry I was not ignoring I just didn't see you there". I said.

"You didn't see me? What the hell were you thinking so deeply that you didn't see me?" Leah asked, raising her brows at me.

"Nothing Lee, just you know committee work". I said hoping she would not ask any questions.

"Ok by the way, where is Yoongi these days I have not seen him much". Leah asked.

"He is busy with basketball practice". I answered.

"Hm, ok let's go, we have to go to the committee room". Leah said.

"You go first I will join you there". I patted her shoulder before walking past her.

"Hello Mrs Smith, how are you". I smiled at the librarian.

"Hello dear I am good, need a new book?" She asked, smiling knowingly at me.

"Yes I need a reference book for assignments". I smiled at her.

"Ok ,call me when you need any help". She called after me.

As I walking in the aisles searching for reference books, suddenly I heard a faint whimper halting my steps. I looked around trying to find where that sound came from. I walked to a different aisle towards a isolated place in a library. Oh god it's getting creepy What the hell Mia do you want to start yourself in a horror movie! With cautioned steps I walked near the isolated place the whimpering increased.

I turned around to see a girl seating with her arms around her knees, her shoulders shaking violently as she sobbed. I was not sure about approaching her, but her painful sobs didn't sit well with me to leave her like that.

"Hey, Are you okay?". Just Great! Mia , a way to start a conversation of course she is not. In the midst of me scolding my socializing skills the girl looked up at me, her eyes red with brimming tears, her face distraught from pain. She looked lifeless, her cold stare making me flinch from my thoughts.
