CONFUTION

"I don't even know who you are," I say as I cry and cover my face.

"Did you kiss him?" Britani asks very surprised.

Nalla, "if you speak lower you want."

We are in the gym and many people are already watching us, I don't want anyone to know.

"Why didn't you go, I love Noha very much but believe me that if a boy like him tells you to stay away, just run," he ends taking a sip of water.

"That's the problem, no one tells me what happened, I want to know why it is so, why so much mystery," I say somewhat irritated.

Britani thinks about it a bit before speaking.

"I'll tell you, but once you know everything, you have to forget it, you understand," says Britani.

He guides me to the bathrooms and once he checks that we are alone he starts talking.

"When I got to this university I did it with my best friend Bella, she was a very pretty girl and immediately Noha and Abel fell in love with her, of course she did not feel the same, on the one hand everyone saw her with Noha. perfect couple, however she had relations with Abel, I asked him to stop but he did not listen to me, in the end Noha found out and in an argument they had an accident, Bella died, now Abel hates Noha and blames him for everything, and her Noha's response to all this was to walk away, "my friend looks at me with sadness in her eyes," maybe I should have warned Noha about Bella."

I understand her perfectly, she feels guilty, however I feel that there are still things that she hides from me. I go over to her and give her a hug.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen to me," I say to reassure her.

Britani "Let's leave the sad faces it's time to have fun, the boys want to go out today you should come."

"I don't think so," I reply

"Of course we are, we're going to get ready," says Britani enthusiastically.

We enter our room, Brit guides me to the bathroom.

"Take a quick shower," he says, closing the door.

I take a long shower while I think about all the things that have happened to me since I got here, it has been stormy. Because I kissed him, it was crazy, I don't know him and I don't understand the past, maybe I should have run and left him alone everything would have been much better, we would be strangers, thinking about that makes my chest tighten, that's why I kissed him I was afraid that if I left it, I could never see it again.

I stop thinking about my problems today I am going to relax, I come out of the bathroom wrapped in a towel, Britani is in front of the mirror putting on makeup, she looks fantastic, she is wearing a green dress that combines perfectly with her eyes.

"Ready, now your turn," says Brit enthusiastically.

Nalla, "no I don't wear makeup."

"You will but first, let's find a dress," she places me in front of a pile of dresses lying on the bed, Britani undoubtedly has extravagant tastes.

There is one that immediately catches my attention, Britani notices it and lifts it up, it is a silver dress with a not very pronounced v-neckline and thin straps.

Britani "You should wear this and I have the perfect heels."

I try on the dress, it's perfect, Brit helps me put on some simple but beautiful black heels.

"Now sit down," Britani sits me in front of the mirror.

He begins to take out jars and powders, he finishes pretty quickly, he looks at me smiling and stands to one side. leaving the mirror free. The surprise that I get is a lot, my eyes and red lips stand out is something that I would never do, it is a fairly simple makeup which I love.

"I love it, I don't recognize myself," I say looking at myself.

"Precious," Britani praises me.

They knock on the door, we are both going to open it, we meet a handsome Darían is very handsome with a black shirt and hair tied up.

"Oh where's Nalla," he says hesitantly.

Britani and I began to laugh, we took our bags and taken Cristian's arm, we left.

We get to the club, it's full of people and it's really loud.

"I'm going to get something to drink, while they look for Lory," Darian informs.

"It will be difficult to find it, this is full," I say somewhat worried.

Britani, "of course not, follow me."

We advance through the crowd until we reach the center of the floor, we find Lory dancing in a pink dress, she does it very well and draws the attention of everyone who passes her, once she catches our presence, she smiles at us and approaches.

"Nalla, you're fine," he says, settling the laughs.

"Thanks your equal, I didn't know you danced so well," he praised her.

"Oh it's just a hobby," she laughs.

Darian comes over with the drinks, I don't have much experience, it has never caught my attention, Darian gives me mine at first I look at her doubtfully but in the same way I take a sip, I end up liking it a lot, it's sweet and I finish it quickly.

"Slow down miss," Richard appears behind me, "come on Nalla, you're beautiful."

Lory, "Richard finally you arrive, I thought Noha would not come."

"I came alone," Richard says somewhat confused.

"That one over there isn't Noha," Lory points to one of the tables in the back.

Hidden in the dark is Noha, he's distracted and annoyed, but since I've known him that's normal for him.

Britani looks at me, she's waiting for some kind of reaction from me, but I'm not following anything, I focus on my drink and as if my life depended on it, I keep my eyes on the ground.

"He hasn't come with me," reports Richard, you can tell he's upset, I just can't find a reason.

Lory, "I'm going to say hello."

Lory walks away from us, greets Noha who gives her a smile, Lory points to us and then Noha's eyes connect with mine, if her face turns serious, the smile from before she has left.

"I'm going to order another one," I informed the boys with some sadness in my voice.

I walk to the bar and order my drink, I take a look at where Noha is, she is laughing with Lory, they are having a lot of fun, they give me my drink which again I just finished a drink.

Eric "Nalla is you?"

Eric is behind me, very amazed, he wears a white shirt, he looks very good, as always, I look around and I don't see Evelin, he seems to be alone.

"You look very good," he says somewhat nervous

"Thanks," I say curtly.

Eric, "can we talk?"

"I don't think it's necessary," I walk away from him.

There was nothing to talk about, which is not justified, I did not understand how that person who loved me so much could betray me in that way.

"Please, it wasn't my intention," he continues.

"Not here please," I beg him.

The only thing missing was arguing in front of my friends and in front of Noha.

Eric, "it's because of him, I already found out about everything."

"What do you know?" I say annoying.

"Nalla that boy is not the one for you, everyone says he killed his girlfriend," says Eric trying to make me see reason.

The tears begin to threaten to come out.

"Everything is fine", intervenes Abel.

Abel stands next to me, I'm so glad to see him I need to get out of here.

"Yeah, we're done talking," I interject avoiding their murderous gazes.

"I'll call you later, we need to talk about it," Eric says as he leaves.

I don't want to talk to him at all, it has been enough for me, nothing he says will make me change my mind.

"Do you want to go out for a breath?" Abel asks me.

Nalla, "yes please."

We dodge all the people until we reach the exit, the fresh air relaxes me and I can think more clearly.

"He's right," says Noha.

Abel is serious, he doesn't even look me in the eye, he's expressionless.

"What do you mean?" I ask.

"He is not the one for you, I know he attracts you but he is not a good person, he only worries about himself he will end up hurting you, just like Bella.

"Why do you say that?" I ask annoying

"I don't want the same thing to happen to you as Bella," he says without answering my question.

"Everyone blames him for Bella's death, but he didn't kill her, you were his friend in the first place and you cheated on him," I tell him.

"Nalla there are things you don't know, I'm not the bad guy here," his face twitches and I can see anger and annoyance in him.

"I don't care who he was, or even what others think, I don't care if they think I'll be the next victim, I know he's not bad," I realize I'm screaming but it's late.

Abel smiles and shakes his head, takes a few steps towards me and almost in a whisper begins to speak.

"My Bella, I think my plans with you will have to change," with that he walks away.

My name is Bella, it is as if her words were not for me, as if she believed that I am another person.

I'm going back but I bump into someone, it's Noha, my scowl.

I can't keep him close, I run inside looking for Brit or Darian but I can't find them, my only escape, the bathrooms. I enter Him and lock myself in a cubicle. I fall to the ground and start to cry, I can't take it anymore, I hear a few steps approaching and stopping right in front of me, under the door I can see how he sits on the ground.

"Thank you," says a familiar voice, it's Noha, "for not believing I'm a show."

I wipe my tears, I'm glad to have the door in the middle, at least he can't see me.
