Chapter 44

Jordan frowned and lowered his head.

"It's not an act!" He stated and I tilted my head.

"It's not? Then, is it a phase?" I asked

"No! It's just a solution I came up with in other not to show my pain." He looked aside. "It's embarrassing to have people talk about you being a crybaby. I hate it!"

"And so did I!" I closed in on him. Our faces stood inches away, his face suddenly turned red but I took no heed to it. "No matter what you do, people will always talk about you." I stated. "No matter what you are, not everyone will like you."

"I know that." He looked away.

"Those who want to hate you will still hate you and if you take all what they say to heart then, you will suffer from depression and die young." I smiled wickedly and it gave him chills.

"You don't have to say it so seriously." He said and I grabbed his face.

"What, are you scared?" I asked with a cunning grin.

"No, it's just..." His face flushed red and my eyes widened. I suddenly realized it and let go.
