2 The TWIST

2 years later ….

I heard Louise and Wade really broke up already but I didn't believe it at first, I mean Louise said it years ago butit didn't happen so yeah and if she is... Really? For what reason?

It's so rare to happen, but Red wouldn't lie to me but I confirmed it all when I saw Wade at our school and he sat at where we are. His expression says it all and we are not that close for me to asks.

"I'm sorry I was against you for Louise years ago" he looked at me

"Care to tell me why?" I smiled shyly but it's all on the past anyway

"Because you made her cry a lot of times and I hate seeing her cry, she's like a sister tome and she always tell me stories of you and your girls she is so inlove with you that she kept ignoring your girls" I told him honestly, and I didn't like how he gave a deadline to Louise.

"Yeah but we ended" he said sadly, what a life, he sound hurt and betrayed

"I didn't know she would be the one breaking your heart, I was wrong" he gave out an awkward laugh

"You know you are a great person Eunice, I don't know what made you avoid her but I'm sure you have a reason"

"Let's just say I did what she asks me to do to not bother her life" I heard from someone taht Louise is telling them how I invade her life, and telling them that I should just live my life and leave her alone, I was hurt because as a friend I gave her advices and that's all I said, an advice and she's telling them I am bothering her too much?

"So is he dating Red now?"

"Honestly based on Red's texts I think they aren't" Red told me he don't want to be a rebound to heal Louise and he felt relieve of what I said.

We were waiting for the time to hit three in the afternoon for our next class, Louise had a different class than I am because last semester she failed one subject.

"Why did you break up?" Summer asks she's my closest friend nowadays.

"She said she felt guilty, she didn't really dated me because she loved me but because she felt like she's gonna lose me" he answered with pain. Maybe she's beginning to realize the other one (Red) is beginning to slipped off her hands.

"There she is" I said and pointed to where Louise is Wade stood up immediately and run towards her. We just watched him go.

"I don't really get her, why would she play with someone else's heart?" I shrugged because I don't really know what to tell him.

"It's her decision there's nothing we can do about it, all I know is Louise likes Red and Louise already accepted before that she and Wade will never happen but suddenly Wade came to the picture again now that Red might be distancing himself from Louise she's afraid Red would walj away to her life but Red waited for her and now i don't know what's stopping him though" I guess she's puzzled too what is going on but I'm more concerned with Red he's very affected.

"Their love triangle is so not easy, trap with a girl confuse, one stepping away and one chasing, it's the girl who decides who will have a happy ending? Who will cry and end up broken?" Sam leaned on me and started smiling

"You know what there are a lot of times where I I don't get exactly what you mean, you talked so deep at times and its frustrating" I laugh at her sentiment I didn't know I am that person

It took us a while to keep the silence and concentrate on reading our law subject. We had to memorize articles for the recitation.

A few minutes later Wade came back to where we are I just met eyes with Sam. Louise and her friends were staring at where we are I saw louise smiled so I smiled back. We're still friends I guess and I still treat her different than my other close friends now.

"You do really love her, now I know how love can make you a fool, you can't control yourself" Sam agreed and asks me for a high five

Red: Hi, can we talk after your class? Please?

Me: About what? Just call me or text me I still have class till seven tonight.

Red: It's important, don't worry I'll send you home

Me: So my mom would think of you as my boyfriend again? lol

Red: Not my fault I'm a boyfriend material 😂

Me: what????? You should eat I think you're just hungry, where should we meet?

Red: I'll pick you up

"You know what Wade, I won't laugh if ever you cry now" Sam slapped my hand and gave me a warning

"Sorry Wade we don't drink, if only we do we should have accompanied you already" okay? so if we do we'll skip class? He left after that and said he'll go home but for sure he'll go with his friends to a bar.

After class I saw Red leaning on his motorcycle and he's very serious

"He really got a big problem" Sam.whispered as we approach him and he stood up upon seeing us

"Let's send Sam home first" I smiled when he gave is the helmet, Sam kept asking me questions about Red but I ignored her.

After that we stopped over at the coffee shop outside of our subdivision, we usually come her if we wanted to just hang out and watch time passed by.

"Tell me the problem girl" I said and he messed his hair up, he looked like someone about to be insane

"We both know I waited for her right? But I don't understand what's stopping me from taking the opportunity" I just listened to his arguments and it's all on repeat

"Something change? Do you still love her?" he did not answer me straightly

"I mean we texts, we're okay but I think I'm fine of what we have" he said like he just discovered what he wanted to really do okay?

Though I get want he was telling me but I really don't know what to tell him, Louise and I weren't in goods terms and he doesn't know why but I feel bad he is inlove with her kind. I mean to be with her requires a very long patience and you must be ready to lower your pride, I never knew there she has that kind of side she was more close with our other friends.

I looked at him annoyed, I wanted him to be happy though, I wanted a girl for him that will love him the way he deserved to be loved not just someone who kept changing her mind.

"If your fine or not, whatever your decision is tell her straight, a few days ago we were arguing of how much you love her and now that she's single you don't want to move?" I know he is very puzzled of what I told him

"Maybe you had this what if's Red, what if he was just challenge of you, or what if she's not really into you if time passes and what if all she felt was just a hunch or what we call crush and not love?" he pointed at me

"You're a psychic" he accused and that made me laugh so hard because he said that with a serious face like how Spiderman told his best friend he is spider man. I kicked his feet to calm him down

"Those are just common questions so which is your what if?" he shrugged and just finish his coffee

"Honestly I don't know what to tell you but girl like I said before there are women out there too do you know that? You're my bestfriend and sometimes I think you're into this idea that she's the best choice you got" I love him but sometimes I wanted to smash his head so he could wake up and forget Louise.

"I talked to Wade earlier" I said and he looked at me

"He said I am a great person" I said proudly and I thought he will insist but he didn't

"You are one, you were always there when I needed someone, even if you tease me a lot and we fought with nonsense reasons and you're the only one who can get me and understand my craziness" that I agreed with him

"Girl if you praising me meant I'll buy you of what we just ate no, I am broke" he never said a word but he cursed at me

"A thank you will do, is it that hard to say thank you?" he asks and looked at me with disappointment in his eyes.

Well, a bestfriend's duty is to support them with their crazy ideas about love and crushes and later on help them get over their heartbreaks. You need a lot of patience to understand them and you must have a list of advices you could give to them.

Louise and I will remain as friends but not as close as before, I guess everyone knows when its enough.

Mike: Babe, you home?

"Wait stop talking I'll just reply this" I said Red is telling me about his internship and his school he'll be graduating soon

Me: Not yet I'm still having a one and one talk with someone who is getting crazy with love :) how's your day? How is school?

"Who's that a textmate?" I said no to Red and kept my phone away from him

"It's private" maybe he felt like I am hiding a big thing from him, I never had a secret, oh yeah I have it's Mike

"Who is it?" I was teasing him and kept saying secret

"My anime buddy" I said laughing but he remained straight face.

"I thought I am your anime buddy?" he said with a jealous tone in his voice, we used to watch and talk about anime well that's where our friendship started Kuroko's basketball or is it Shokugeki no souma? I don't remember since we watched a lot and he had the complete series of hunter x hunter and I literally pleaded just for him to lend me his DVD, and that's our world Louise can't touch she won't dare to enter it because she knew she will just get lost inside our world.

"You did not assume you're the only one I could talk to with anime right? You just focus on your lovelife now and let me be" Louise called him after a few minutes and I was also busy texting Mike

Mike: Who? Is that a man or a woman?

Me: Man, you remember my best friend Red? he's confuse and getting crazy as of the moment 😂

Mike: oh yeah, you should schedule him with a psychiatrist babe, haha

Me: I'm planning to but love I think I need to schedule you as well

Mike: and why is that? I'm fine

Me: Love you're crazy about me is that normal? ?😂: it is, I love you 😘

"Why are you smiling like an idiot?" Red suddenly asks me and tried peaking but I was alert then my mom is calling....

"I'm five minutes away" I answered to my mom and we both run outside to get home

Red joined our dinner and I was laughing si hard because my brother interviewed Red because I told him about Red's problem and my brother literally teased him to death

"Don't drive too fast girl, and text me when you're home"

"Yes ma'am" he even salute to me before he went his way

I called Mike as soon as I enter our house

"I'm coming home this weekend so if you have plans forget about it" he is very demanding well it's been a month since we saw each other face to face

"Yes boss, anyway did you finish your assignment already?" he texted me earlier about his assignments and projects

"Of course, easy" he laughed at his own boastfulness

"Anyway a friend of mine posted a photo of us together she's just a friend alright?" Ah that post where they went at a resort

"I saw one of your cousins comment actually and you should introduce your woman to them already" he laughed and sense that I am a bit jealous, her cousin commented 'When will you introduced her to us?"

"Babe, this weekend :) I will"

"Yeah bring her and introduce her to me as well let me judge" I said sarcastically, I heard him laugh and her mom calling him crazy

I laid to my bed and opened my book

"Ofcourse I will let you meet her, she's a beauty and kind, she's not sexy but she had her shape" I tried to defend myself from him

"I know I am not sexy but who cares? Atleast I weigh normal how about you skeleton?" he's thin but he eats a lot he's the person who is given a fast metabolism

"I love you babe, goodnight I had to go to school early tomorrow" I was laughing because we kept saying goodbye but no one is ending the call but in the end he was the one who end the call I just notice it's already eleven o'clock I finished my assignment first before I went to bed

Wade calling

I put it on speaker

"Yo wazzup" I greeted but I heard a sob, damn he's crying

He opened up about his feelings asks me questions what did he do wrong? He did not cheat on her or if he did something he did not know but how would I know?

I did all my best to make him feel better but who am I kidding? I can make him feel better but I won't make the pain ease even a little. I can make him smile but I can't even budge the pain to go away
