Chapter 87
"It's a secret! Shush"
"I won't listen, You have to tell me. I am your friend right! "
When did he become so childish? I wondered.
"Actually he asked me to proof read the story he had written. "
"Only this! "
"Yeah, What else! "
I went back to my seat. Cla.s.ses continued. Finally cla.s.ses were over.
I heaved a sigh of relief. The cla.s.ses were indeed tiring ones. Seeing the once single Ellie going out with his bf made me feel happy at the same time a bit jealous. I can play with feelings in front of others but can't be dishonest with the feelings to myself after all. Seeing them holding hands made me wish if only once at least I could hold his hand and walk happily crossing the lakes, the trees, the flowers, the fallen leaves. Tightly gripping with every ounce of my strength to never let him go away. To never part whether in this life or
I came back home. Washed my hands and face.Looking at mirror, Thinking about the morning which I had handled painfully just to make others not feel awkward. Maybe I could be an awesome actress in terms of bitter love. I touched my chest. The feeling was still there. His showdown from downstairs to upstairs just to protect me really touched me.
"Dear how was the day? "
"Mom it's good but you know an interesting thing happened. Ellie has a boyfriend. "
"Ellie? Which one? "
"You have seen her. Let me show you her weibo account. "
"See this one. "
"I remember.You have shown me before. "
"Who is her boyfriend? "
I teased mom a little and said, "Mommy, very curious right. "
"Obviously! "
"I showed her his pic. "
"He looks average. But okay. "
"What's the use of seeing other's? Look at you, totally useless. I being a younger sister can't even expect to meet a boy with you in this life. Not to mention you are already a saint! "
"Ah Nikki, Is this how you should talk about your elder sister! "
"But she.. "
"No buts. You are young. So you won't understand. Establis.h.i.+ng ones future is the most important thing right now. And people often select wrong person and may get betrayed towards the end. "
"Sorry, mom. "
"Good that you keep this in mind. People cannot be easily trusted. Not to mention before marriage if they make a mistake. That one mistake will haunt their entire life and crumble them altogether. Moreover, girls need to have a certain degree of self respect. Not only girls. But each and every human being. They cannot easily give over their freedom and self-respect. "
I was listening to mom keenly at the same time managed to hit Nikki.
"Then what about Sky? Sis seems to like him. "
"Who said that? Did I tell you? "
"That's her decision. I won't interfere. If she gets betrayed one day I won't be blamed. "
"No mom. Trust me Nikki is blabbering nonsense."
Mom winked at me. I got her hint. She was just saying those to quiet her down.
She left in feat of defeat.
After the interrogation I came back to my room. Seeing my bed I flung off to sleep.There was nothing to turn back.
