“You like someone? Who?” asked Helena with a blank look
There was someone, he said he loved me, and I could see that through his eyes. Even though I admire someone else, and he knows it, but he still loves me, so I think I will learn to love him. “ Said Natty with a faint smile.“Then who do you admire?” asked Helena again“Someone who is great, but I will end my love for him today. I just feel that I have to tell you because we are friends.” Said Natty trying to keep smiling, but her eyes tore up when she mentioned the word friend.Helena didn’t realize the meaning of Natty’s trembling eyes. She could look at the sadness bead in Natty’s views but seeing her best friend smiling made Helena think maybe Natty had done the right decision. She didn’t know who Natty had previously loved, but she could get that it hurt Natty. All of this was visible in Natty’s eyes.“Yes, maybe that&rsqu“Is it okay for you to pick this?” asked Alex, who was worried after buying Ruby’s order of food.“It’s okay, I always want to bite this. The meal in the hospital is terrible. “ Said Ruby.Ruby took a burger and ate it. Ruby looks enjoying her burger, as if it is the most delicious food in the world. Alex, who saw how Ruby enjoyed her burger, could only smile and then stroked Ruby’s head. He also bit and smiled while staring at Ruby.They both look happy together, making Helena who is standing distantly feel sad and jealous. Helena wanted to approach them both and sit between them, but after what happened she could no longer do that. She lowered her head and sat at one table only because Natty wasn’t with her. This was the first time she was alone like this among the crowd. It felt as if she was drowning in the crowd. Feeling empty and gloomy and lonely.“Where’s Drake? Why isn’t he with us? Though
The two smooth pink lips interlocked and crushed each other. So soft and sweet it makes them even more unwilling to let go. The deeper the more they could feel each other’s breath. Then the ravishing kiss ends, and they stare at each other with their breaths, panting. They smiled together with their wild hearts.“Oh yeah, I prepared this for you. Please enjoy ... ” said Gale as she brought the lunch box she had filled with fruit salad.Natty was delighted when she saw that the grapes which were her favorite fruit were also there. Gale is perfect at pampering her by feeding her than giving a little caress but making Natty pleased. More than anyone, Gale can always make Natty feel loved because that’s what Natty has ever wanted. The feeling of love that she had longed to get. Now she feels from how Gale treats her.“At Prom tonight, want to dance together?” Gale asks, and it takes Natty a bit“But, can that be? If we dance
***The first song ended, and just before they played the second song the door opened again. The sound of heels stepping echoed and filled the room. All eyes were on the entrance. It amazed everyone at Ruby, who entered wearing white. The dress she wore was not that fancy but quite elegant, with a simple yet luminous necklace and bracelet.It amazed everyone at her beauty, which radiated as if there was a light surrounding her. Alex, who had been waiting for a long time, approached Ruby without hesitation. He who also looked like a handsome prince smiled at Ruby and stretched out his hand.“Will you dance with me?” asked Alex while on his knees, which shocked everyone.Ruby who didn’t think about anything accepted Alex’s invitation and took his hand. Alex was very happy and it was clear from the way he smiled and looked at Ruby. They also stepped into the middle of the dance hall. The music started again, and they danced to the beat. Natur
At the moment there is only one thing that Alex is thinking about and that is asking Ruby’s reason for leaving. Alex seemed to lose his mind. He let go of Helena’s hand that was holding him and was about to run out to find Ruby. Indeed though he doesn’t know where Ruby is going, he wants to go looking for her indeed though he has to run all over the school.“Wait, I’m coming. Drake was trying to catch Ruby earlier. “ Said Stellar.***Drake continued to chase Ruby until finally, he saw Ruby go into the toilet. Drake accidentally saw Ruby open her bag then took a bottle filled with pills and drank it. Drake lowered his gaze then decided to stand in front of the toilet and wait for Ruby. He didn’t mean to eavesdrop but vaguely he could hear Ruby’s gasping breath and it sounded awful.Drake could only guess how Ruby’s face was right now. In his thought Ruby might look pale and in pain. He also saw how Ruby fainte
What exactly is love? Does love come just to carry wounds? I used to consider it was all about love. It's like a cloud brewing when the sun is shining. Like cotton candy and lollipops that only give a sweet taste.I never realized that I was the one who was so naïve to consider that way. Not only hard regrets, but love can also be very hurtful. Adults always try to dictate which is wrong and which is right. Then put pressure on us with what they assume is good. But are they right? Do they know everything?In reality, no one is always right and no one knows all. They just like judging other people. Maybe to gain confidence or just a reason to run away from the problems they're facing. Like a disabled man throwing stones at a frog. They try to erase their wounds by injuring others.***Last night's prom left many memories. Some people smile happily, starting other love stories and new friendships. Some people start the day for being too drunk, and others seek
“ I just trust you. I don’t think you’re that kind of person, let alone a friend. Now you better go after Drake and fix everything.” Say Ruby with her sweet smile as usual.Ruby’s words are beautiful and pleasant. There’s nothing wrong, not at all. But those beautiful words draw Alex to another sadness. Interestingly, it falls even deeper. Something he can’t explain, but it hurts a lot. It’s like a thorn growing deeper and deeper into his heart.“You talk like you don’t have any feelings for me, from the beginning...” Alex said with his bitter smile and tears that had wet his eyes.Alex wipes away his tears with his hands, and then he runs after Drake. After Alex’s running back disappeared from her sight. Ruby’s body collapses as if it had no power at all. Tears filled her views. She cried because she couldn’t cry in front of Alex.“How can I say it? How can I tell that it s
***Meanwhile, Helena feels she should pay more attention to Natty. She stayed near Natty. Although it makes Natty feel unable to freely meet her lover. Helena always sticks to her more than usual, and that makes Natty give up. She had no chance to spend time with Gale at school.“Why are you acting weird today?” asked Natty.“I just want to spend more time with you. I felt like these days we rarely spend time together.” Helena answered, saying only the reason.“Is there anything bad going on at prom?” asks Natty, right, attacking Helena.“No, don’t talk about the Proms anymore. Let’s just go to the cafeteria.” Said Helena in a slightly irritated tone.They went to the cafeteria. After ordering the food, they both stared all over the cafeteria trying to get a table that fit them. But the canteen is so crowded, and it’s almost impossible to find an empty table for them to stay in.But
“You know nothing, so stop acting like you know everything!!” says Helena.Helena then leaves with a rage that still overflows. Meanwhile, Drake was just sitting in his chair laughing. No one knows why he laughed. Maybe Helena’s angry face looks funny or maybe he's just laughing at his lonely life whereas everyone else ever has someone. Yes, losing love doesn’t hurt him so much, but being betrayed by his own best friend is the greatest suffering he feels right now and always torments him.***Smiles from both corners of Natty’s lips. Her eyes kept glancing at Gale walking in front of her while glancing at her. After making sure no one saw them. Gale and Natty go into the women’s restroom. One by one their restroom doors are open, making clear there’s no one in there.And after making clear no one in the toilet, they open the door at the very end and get into it. Even their warm hugs are linked while staring at each other
