Leaving the Friendzone

The bell goes off which signified that the school day was over. Everyone has their bags and books set up to leave for home respectfully. I was still unbothered about what my eyes witnessed earlier. To an extent I was shocked, knowing fully well that Matthews hadn't gotten angry with anyone before in that kind of manner until Clara crossed her boundaries. A part of me felt bad for Clara. I was human after all, hatred wasn't going to get in my way of seeing that she just got embarrassed in front of the whole class, if not the whole school after falling into the same trap she set up for Matthews. If I was in her shoes, I won't be able to lift my head but she composed herself and left the scene even while she was noticed. My eyes roamed the classroom and the corridor just to get my eyes on Matthews but he zoomed off early to get to his home.
