Chapter 41_ Wasted a lie!

It was obvious we might collapse if we do not take a break from our danger dash so we took a little bit of rest. We started panting so heavily and I tried to talk but only tired gasps escaped my mouth. After a good intake of fresh air, " Those two are shameless!" I spat. 

Mia looked at me, I saw that her glasses has almost fallen off of her nose. " What are you talking about? We should be glad they let us off." she almost bit me if I wasn't careful. I threw back her question at her. " What are you talking about?" then I continued. 

"Making out in front of a junior is shameless, I've never seen anything more shameless!"

"They were not making out in front of us. They told us to leave so we could give them privacy honey." she argued.

Oh, maybe she was right. They weren't making out in front of us. Senior Cassidy did tell us to scram when they wanted to start their utmost nonsense! But then, I still find it uncomfortable and barbarous." How about two seniors the school appointed in the same workbench doing an extensive and unimaginable absurdity in their respective appointed posts?!" I almost yelled. The level of my anger shocked even me. I wasn't supposed to be so angry but I was. Yes, I was!

"What the hell is wrong with you girl? We are not in kindergarten for goodness sake. Those seniors you are talking about are already grown-ups. If l'm not mistaken Katz is in fifth year that should make him about 21. A 21 year old is more than old enough to date. Don't tell me you won't date throughout your stay here. High school students dates talk less of a college student almost in his final years" Mia said at length then it hit me.

It was true what she said. I was being relativistic. It was not a crime if the librarian and annoying jerk were dating. I mean, he was more than old enough to date, so was she. Funny, I don't even know how old she was. She might even be older than Katz. I was sure she was a top student but then, I know the top students from the first year to fifth. Was she a sixth year senior? lf she was,then that would mean she was a top student. A final year top student! Only God knows how powerful she must be. No wonder she was so arrogant. I never knew nor did I notice when a smile formed around the corner of my mouth. If she was a final year student, that means her days are numbered in the school. That entails, soon she would leave the school and leave annoying jerk behind. Oh my God, that was so good to know. It made the collywobbles in my tummy not to mope instead they danced contradicting their usual self. The satisfaction this new discovery gave me was not to be compared.

Wait! Why should I be happy the librarian was going to leave the school and leave annoying jerk behind, I mean, what has that got to do with me? It was his problem and the end of the passion going on between them. It shouldn't concern me. Arghhhh, Medusa! What in the world is so wrong with you?! You need fixing! I said within myself. I mean yes, I had to scold myself. 

'Maybe because you think if she was gone, Katz would come to you.' the voice in my head whispered again. What the hell is it and why is it bent on taunting me the whole fucking time?! No, that was not the case. The real deal was that I was glad and happy about the heartbreak the annoying would feel when his sugar baby leaves him and he was left alone at the end.

Yes that was it! He wouldn't feel so sure of himself anymore and he would have no choice but to be a little nicer. I could not begin to imagine him walking about in the library with his head bent and his face sulking face. Aye, I would laugh at him. I would go to the library all day just to mock him! By then, I would have gotten my powers then I would show him how cool I was.

'Why would you want to show him how cool you are? So he can get attracted to you and finally be yours?' again, the voice in my head teased.

This was certainly getting too much and getting real, the effect of the voice when it speaks, how realistic it sounds was making me confused. I was beginning to suspect it was not just an ordinary voice. I needed to speak to someone about it.

The question was who?

The girls?.. No, definitely something

was fishy about the girls. Not the way Mackenzie became a super girl overnight or the way Mia was maliciously speaking ill of her.

The dean perhaps?... Hmm, the dean is school but senior Eira said not to trust the school. Okay, she said the school, not the dean. 

Can I trust the dean? Maybe I will need to find that out. It was important because it is getting certain to me that this was a journey I can not go through alone. I need people,I need people on my side. But how do I know the right people?

'The dean is okay and so is Wyllow.' the voice in my head again mentioned. If only this second annoying jerk could shut up for a second and let me think!

What was I thinking about again?

Uhmmm...

Okay, I forgot. My brain was starting to hum out those ambiguous information. It just can not process them all! 

Mia's flickering fingers yanked me back to reality. " You there?" she asked now waving her hand at my face.

I suddenly realized I had stood lost in my thoughts without answering any of her questions if at all I heard any of them.

"Sorry, what was that you said again?"I asked. She rolled her eyes. "You mean you did not pick on any of what l said?" she almost opened her mouth.

"I did not, just tell them all over again" I answered nonchalantly. She glared at me before stomping off. Her protruding ass marching after her. " You're mistaken if you think I'm going to repeat all that all over again " she was saying as she walked away.

I didn't follow after her instantly,I stayed back a bit and observed her behind, oh Mia was endowed okay! She just covers it all up with those wide denim skirts she wears almost everyday. Her fashion was dead, but there was room for change though. After feeding my eyes enough, I ran after her. "Come on Mia, just tell me all over I will be nice to you from now on I promise" I tugged at her shoulder as we walked in the direction of the hostel. The hostel's building was almost in sight.

"Hm, so you know you've not been nice." She pouted.

"I've always been nice, just reciprocating your bitchy attitude"

She shrugged my hands off " Ok, go meet your not bitchy friend to give you the details then. " "Come on, can't you be a bestie for once?" I stopped walking and shouted behind her. I saw her pause and her to my establishment, she bursts out laughing out of the blue. 

What was funny enough for her to laugh out loud like that? I walked up to her. 

" What's funny?"I asked.

"You" she replied still looking at me with smiles all over her.

I don't even want to know how I made her laugh or what it was I did that made her laugh so.. " What were you saying earlier?"I asked.

Actually, I was only nudging her because l thought she said some taunting words about me regarding the annoying jerk.

"I asked if you even dated in high school at all." She replied. We were now walking back fairly.

Oh no, I shouldn't have nudged her to repeat what she said. How the hell was I supposed to answer her now? That I haven't dated any regardless of how hot and beautiful I claimed to be? Or that when I finally had a crush and he reciprocated my feelings, annoying jerk and the other senior came and toss me into a portal like a little girl?

I am definitely not telling her that, she would think I was a mama's girl or something. I knew Mia, she was going to tease me about it at every possible chance she gets.

I coughed lightly and avoided looking her in the eyes. That might sell me out so..

"Of Course, l have, my dear Jonas." I feigned a dreamy eyes and lied.

"Oh, I see" was the short reply from her. We were at the hostel's entrance now.

"So Mia, have you? You know dated before in high school?"

Without looking at me and looking out for the room where Mackenzie and senior Eira was. "Hmmm, No" she shook her head.

What? Like...what?!

So I lied for no damn good reason?

I wasted a lie!
