FEW DAYS LATER.
? Claribel’s P.o.v?
? HELP ME,MY GOD,THIS GOT MESSY
LEAST I GOT THE BEST SEAT CAUSE WE PUT ON ONE H£LL OF A SHOW.
WAITING,I JUST KEEP ON WAITING FOR THE FINAL CURTAINS CAUSE I CAN’T LET GO OF YOUR LOVE.
YOU SAY MY NAME LIKE YOU KNOW MY DARK SIDE.
COUNT ME THE TEARS THAT I HAVE CRIED FOR YOU.
SLOW GRENADE IS BLOWING MY MISTAKE.
SO WHY DON’T I STOP IT, STILL GOT TIME FOR ME TO STOP IT.
IT’S LIKE A PART OF ME WANT IT, THAT’S WHY AM NOT RUNNING FROM IT.?
I kept replaying that particular song because it somehow related to i and Adrian.
These past few days have been less worse than i imagined, honestly am proud of how strong i have been with the whole thing.
I was expecting myself to be crying and cursing at everyone but I didn’t, although i cried but i regained myself quickly.
Shannon has been an amazing friend, even if she has a boyfriend,she makes out time for me.
Isaac joins us on our outing,Am so happy for Shannon,i actually never thought Isaac could love her this much.
Isaac was a full blown player, every girl knew that and when Shannon started getting involved with him,i was scared even though she told me she loved him,i still felt scared,i really didn’t want her to get her heart broken.
But look how ironic everything is,I was the person shielding her from heartbroken but look at me now,i didn’t only get my heartbroken,i got it ripped out of my chest and stomped on many times.
I ran back to music,it helps me alot,i could have also gone back to reading novels but they all reminded of Adrian and all the shitty love quotes drove me cr@zy.
The love in the novels and movies felt unrealistic to me and i wasn’t interested.
I was in my room doing my homework with headphones on when i heard a loud crash downstairs.
I left my room and stood at the edge of the stairs,My dad just walked in drunk,he wasn’t been around for a while,he was probably drinking his life out.
It was love that made him like this,he loved my mom so much,she broke him so bad and now he is drunkard,i will forever blame my whore of a mother,i hate her and i hate love.
“What are you looking at,you whore?” My dad’s voice sounded so deep.
“Am not a whore,so stop saying that”
“So where have you been this few days if not wh0ring yourself out”
“Dad,i have always been at home,you were the one out drinking yourself to stupor as always”
Before i knew it,he slapped me with the back of his palm,i fell and rolled down the stairs.
“That’s for calling me your dad, Stupid sl*t”
He walked away, throwing some things on the floor.
I tried to stand up,i noticed that i bruised my elbow,it was bleeding.
Am supposed to be crying but i don’t have anymore tears to shed,i limped back up to my room to attend to my wounds.

? Adrian’s P.o.v?
I watched as my mom cleaned up my room that i thrashed again for the umpteenth time these past few days.
I thought everything will be okay if she isn’t close to me but it only became worse,i can’t even f*cking think straight without her.
It’s so messed up,i don’t know how she is able to sneak into my mind, there is not a minute that goes by that I don’t think of her, it’s so creepy.
“For how long will you keep thrashing your room?” My mom asked as she brought first aid box to clean my bruised knuckles.
“Until i get rid of this anger i feel”
“Why do you feel angry?”
“Because i can’t get Claribel out of my head,mom,i think am running mad,i even imagine that she’s with me,am cr@zy mom”
“You are not cr@zy,you are in love”
“Mom, don’t start” I groaned in annoyance.
Am being very serious,Adrian, you need to face the fact that you are in love with her and she loves you too,she told you”
My mom rubbed some ointment on my knuckles which made the injury sting.
“Mom,we can’t work,we will never work”
“And why’s that?”
“Because.. because she’s too good for me,she deserves better”
“And are you not the best for her,i have seen you two hanging out in this house,you are both equally stubborn, you both love reading novels and Adrian,you literally draw Claribel all the time”
“Mom, that’s not the point”
“Then what is the point? Cause i don’t get you teenagers”
“Claribel deserves someone who will be with her all through her life and not someone who will die one day” I said and my mom sighed.
“Adrian, everyone is destined to die someday”
“But my time is so soon,you know it,mom,i have a heart disease”
“Thag is being held under control, You still have time, You should accept her in your life”
“I don’t want her to feel the same pain that you felt when Dad died,mom you cried your eyes out,you were in your room for so long,you didn’t want to eat or see anyone,i don’t want that for her”
“And you think she isn’t feeling that oain right now,Adrian,you pushed her away, She’s probably so hurt”
“So what should i do?”
“Be with her,even if you guys don’t end up with each other,the fact that you two were close is enough”

THE NEXT DAY.
I was Claribel’s locker side waiting for her,she saw me then turned to walk away but i stopped her.
“What?” She asked harshly,i noticed she didn’t wear the bracelet and necklace i got her,she always wore them.
“I..i came to talk to you”
“Mr Coleman,am not going to let you treat me like a fool”
“Claribel,i..
I wanted to say something but then i noticed a huge bruise in her elbow,i immediately held her hand.
“What happened to you? Who did this?”
“None of your business and if you have nothing to say, Goodbye and don’t come close to me”
She walked away angrily.
