Chapter 13 # ignored by a friend

Caleb P.O.V.

Finally, third year of college is starting. Last year was a mess for almost everyone in my friend circle. Including me, just the difference is that I am still trying to get back what I lost.

Now let me explain why last year was the worst year of my life. Kyle dumped Rebekah, there was a massive fight between them safe to say they broke up with a bad note. My friend Myra suddenly abandoned me. Well, that is the biggest reason why my last year was fucked up.

When two months were just left for the finals last year. Myra started to avoid me I tried to find out the reason why but every time she would change the topic. And then eventually she also started ignoring me. At that my patience level broke. I went directly to her class at the time I knew it was going to end. I still remember that day clearly.

'It was 3 minutes before the class would end, I thought of everything I was going to say when I confront her. Today I am going to get all answers. She isn't getting out of this situation until she tells me reason for her avoiding me.

The class ended everybody started rushing out. In cluster of people, I tried to look for highlighted blue hair. There she was. Wearing a red off shoulder top with white skin tight jeans. Carrying books in one hand and her white bag was hanging from her one shoulder.

I went her and she started walking faster and didn't even look at me like I was thin air. I had enough of it. I held her hand and dragged her back to where I was standing. She turned around but didn't say anything. And looked at me with impatience.

"We need to talk." I said with my jaw clenched.

"No, we don't." she said again with that stupid attitude of hers.

"Look-

I notice people are starting to stare at us.

"We need to talk; you cannot always ignore me. Let's not create a scene here Myra come with me. I just need to talk to you for five minutes."

She looked around and noticed that more and more people were staring at us. At this she nodded and followed me. We went to cafeteria garden. After reaching she turned and looked towards me and folded her hands and with stern expression said

"Okay, talk."

"Why are you ignoring me all of sudden?"

"Because I felt like it."

"What do you mean you felt like it?"

At this she let out a long sigh.

"Oh common, Caleb it's not like that you don't understand. I never thought of you as a friend. I merely used hangout with you a bit. So that people won't give me a hard time during my first year. You know you have great influence." She said rudely while shrugging her shoulders.

At this I was surprised. She should know me well enough by now that her stupid excuse will not work on me. I am far too smart to be tricked by her. Besides I didn't miss the tiny glint of guilt that flashed in her for lying to me.

"Oh, so now I have lived up to my use so you don't need to be friends with me. Is that your so-called reason or should I say excuse for ignoring me." I say sarcastically

"What makes you think that. And what makes you think that I would like to become friends with you if not for that reason."

"Now you are insulting me. Do you think I am that stupid that I don't even know when you are lying? I am far too smart to fall for lie. So, quit lying."

"Do you have any idea how boring you are Caleb. I feel like I will die out of boredom even if spend some time with. You're talks about things are just so far from my logic. And another thing, you think whatever you want, this was our last conversation and it is over now."

After saying this she started to leave. I have had enough of this bullshit. I finally exploded seeing her departure. This time I grabbed her arm harshly and pulled her back.

"Listen Myra, being friends with me or not you don't get to decide that. And don't worry I will soon find out reason for your ignorance and by the time I find it you will be more than just friends with me."

After saying this I left her and took few steps backward while observing her reaction. She looked surprised and frustrated. I turned and walked away with huge strides.'

Suddenly my phone ringed and I came out of my thoughts. It's was text from one of my acquaintance.

"I saw Myra at shopping mall ten minutes ago" said the text.

I checked time it was 8:30. What is she doing out this late. She wouldn't be allowed to enter dorm if she stays out a minute longer. I went out of boy's dorm. Well perks of being in elite club I can come and go at any time I feel like from dorm. I headed towards girl's dorm and as expected there was Myra and another girl with her, they were arguing with warden. Then I noticed the other girl was Kara. What is she doing with well I'll know soon enough?

"Let them in." I shouted at warden. Hearing my voice, she let them in.

"Thanks stranger." Kara shouted at me. She doesn't know but with Kyle being interested in her we will not be strangers for too long.

Myra didn't even look at me and went in. I am not gonna lie it hurt. Sometimes I think why do I even care. Then I remember she was more then just friend to me since the first day. My feelings didn't diminish for her they just grew stronger. I don't think I can ignore her knowing that I have feelings for her. I guess it is just my bad luck that she doesn't give a fuck. With cursing the reason, she started ignoring me I went back to boy's dorm to get some sleep.
