*Earlier that day*
"Jasmine! Hey, wait up!"
Oh no, not now.
I'm not really in the mood to talk to anyone right now.
Maybe if I continue walking they might get the hint and leave me alone?
Maybe there is another Jasmine walking down this very same corridor right now.
"Hey, I was calling out to you. Why did you not stop?" Layla says as she places a hand on my shoulder, turning me around to face her.
"Really? Sorry I did not hear you"
"It is fine. Are you okay? No offense but you look like a mess"
I am not really the poker face type of person.
Some may even call me an open book, and when I'm stressed it is written all over my face.
But what I am feeling right now is more than just mid term exam type of stress.
I guess my choice of attire is not much of any help either, with my oversized hoodie and sweatpants.
I was really hoping to blend in and get through the day, but I guess this is what it is like to have friends.
