Jay's pov:
My brain short-circuited I scanned Jay and Mia like they were pieces of puzzle to solve.
Jare...was
Shirtless.
He was bandaged.
But Mia....
Her hand was on his chest. Their faces were too close.
They were just inches apart. Will they kiss?
God there is literally a child here Jare. Have mercy.
I'm innocent.
Will I be a tita soon?
I blinked at the scene.
My car keys and shopping bag fell from my hand with a loud
THUD
My breath hitched at the scene.
Their faces snapped to me instantly.
But...I stood frozen.
Mia pulled her hands away face turning bright red like strawberries and roses
While Jay panicked. He moved to me in lightning speed.
"Jay your back. You could have told me, I would have taken the shopping bags" He gave an awkward smile.
I smiled back looking at the scene. My eyes landed on Mia.
"I-I J-Jay he was i-injured. People attacked him so...I-I It's not what y-you think...." She stuttered.
My mind was blank with endless questions.
I bent down...but my eyes weren't searching for the keys...it was distracted while my hands were doing the job of my eyes.
I slowly stood up. Straightened myself.
Cleared my throat.
"I did not mean to interrupt please continue your romance" I said blankly and bolted towards my room.
I could hear groaning and yelling.
Ok! both of them were embarrassed.
But peace never lasts long like you expect.
Because your brain is a monkey that always jumps around.
As soon as I came to my room, my mind went back to section E. Keifer.
Their betrayal. It felt like I was stabbed. Every second in that classroom felt like a stab sharp edges of the knife piercing harder in my heart.
Just thinking of it made my head throb.
I hated this feeling. I hated that I became stronger. I hated that I treated them well while they use me.
I hated every single one of them.
I came out of my room.
Evening: sky was red-orange, A species of rose colour. The sky was beautiful but my life wasn't because. The one section E gave me was a scar. A permanent one. The one I could never forgive for.
A hand suddenly placed on my shoulder I flinched.
"Hey...you ok?" Mia asked her eyes softening.
"Yeah...Just feel betrayed by my own thoughts"
"Jare...he is more worried about than himself" Mia added standing beside me silently.
"Sounds like him.....He never admits he's a sister-complex" I answered quietly eyes never leaving the sky.
I finally turned and looked at her.
But she was looking at the sky.
"He truly loves you and so do I" I didn't want to say the stuff out loud. I didn't want to feel weak when I say these.
I quickly turned.
I could feel her breath hitch by what I had admited.
She suddenly gave me a side hug.
"Good. Because I will be your best friend and anything you want me to be" She whispered.
The evening blurred. I didn't notice the time pass. I was babbling to Mia. Jare didn't interrupt He was rather happy even if it was about his embarrassing childhood. He just smiled.
I looked at the time.
shoot I have only 30 mins until Freya picks me up.
"My lovely Kuya" I pouted pleading.
"What did you do now?"
"Can I go to bar with girls?"
Mia chuckled at my behaviour.
"I'll come with you" Jare didn't budge.
"It's girls night" He frowned.
"No"
"Please" I pouted.
He sighed. And nodded defeated.
*At bar*
"Mm this feels awesome." Freya raised her glass.
We danced a the centre.
Drank too much. But I wasn't drunk. I had high tolerance.
"Hey love. Having fun."
That sounded familiar I turned.
There he was. Jason. Leaning against the counter.
"Wow! disappeared again and showed up again? your really something" I scoffed.
"Still. you fell in love with me" He smirked amused.
"Where were you anyways?"
"Umm Jay who is he?" Rakki came towards me. Protective. The others followed.
Girls behind me like a protective layer.
"Oh hi girls! I'm her ex...who disappeared and reappeared" He said in a cool tone.
Which irritated me.
Absolutely.
But my chest lightened. I missed his annoying Jokes.
