Jeremy ‘s POV [Continues] School got over and Andra and the girl walked out together.
Why!
Why the fuck should they be walking together huh! I hissed and stood up and walked out to meet them.
They are both talking as Andra got her bag and closed back her locker.
I walked over and grabbed her hand.
She looked at me.
The girl did too but I gave a glare and she looked down.
“What’s this huh?” Andra yelled.
I glanced at the girl again, then back at Andra.
“Come with me okay?” I said and pulled her along.
The girl raised up her face and stood, staring.
………………………………………
……………………………
“Let go off me!” Andra said as we got to the hallway.
I let go of her hand.
“Why would you let that girl be your friend!” I said.
She raised her eyesbrows.
“What?” She asked.
“You can’t be be friends with her. She’s fucking poor!” He said.
I just don’t anyone walking with her to her locker. And intruding.
She gasped.
“What? you’re so unbelievable!” She spat.
“Don’t be friends with her!.” I said.
She shifted a littlw bit away from me.
“Are you such a jerk! I’do be friends with whoever that I wanna be friends with.
Who are you to tell me not to be friends with Eve huh!” She barked.
Ohh. Her name is Eve.
“I don’t want you guys being friends don’t you get?” I said. “Fuck you. You know what?” She said, glaring at me. What?
“…I hate who you are.” She said and turned to walk away but I grabbed her.
“I..Im… I just don’t want you to be friends with that girl.” I said calmly now.
“Leave my hand.” She said.
“Are you gonna walk away?” I asked.
I don’t want her to.
“Let go off my hand first!” She half yelled.
I did.
She crossed her arm and stared at me.
I love her eyes.
“What’s your reasons?” She asked.
“She’s a damn girl from a wretched home. She’s on a fucking scholarship here.” I said.
“And?” She said.
And??
“Nothing else.” I said.
“Well, That doesn’t change that she’s a girl like me and I ‘do rather be her friend than be a friend to a jerk like you!” She said and walked away.
I shut my eyes, inhaled and opened them back to see her walking away with the girl.
I stared at Andra.
Im feeling so sad.
Damn.. why?
I should be fucking angry.
“Hey guy” I heard Chris voice behind me.
I didn’t turn. I kept staring at Andra, walking away with the girl.
Chris came over and stood beside me.
“Tomorrow’s gonna be you guys one week friendsip anniversary. What do you think?” He said.
chuckled. That’s right.
Even though she accepted to be my friend on thursday. I made her my friend on tuesday.
“She’s quite upset with me.” I said.
“Huh? why?” He asked.
“Cos I told her not to be friends with that black girl, Eve.” I said.
“The one with her?” He asked.
“Yeah. I just feel she shouldn’t come in.” I said.
“Dude, you can’t tell her who to be friends with. Come on man.” He said.
I chuckled.
“Is your heart beating fast?” He asked.
“No.” I said.
“Ah, you’re not inlove.” He said.
I looked at him.
Cos it seems my heart is beating fast.
“When it beat fast?” I asked.
“Then you’re inlove.” He said.
I chuckled.
“Oh fuck that. Don’t talk nonsence.” I said.
“Im serious man.” He said.
“Im not you, you know.” I said.
“Oh sweet.” He said.

# Alexandra ‘s POV
“I heard all he said.” Eve said as he walked towards Steph’s class.
“Huh?”
“He told you not to be friends with me cos im damn poor.” She said.
I stopped and pulled her into a hug.
“My dad is just a cab driver and my mom is on wheelchair.” She said, sobbing already.
“Im sorry Eve. Don’t think about what he said. No one tells me what to do okay?”
I said as I felt a tear drop from my eye.
She withdrew and looked at me.
Tears in her eyes.
She look so pretty.
“Are you guys friends?” She asked.
“You mean Jeremy?” I asked.
“I don’t know what we are.” I said.
She stared at me.
“Let’s go.” I said and held her hand as we walked into Steph’s class. Found her
packing her books.
She looked up at us.
“Im sorry guys, had physics practical today. It takes quite a time.” She said.
I smiled, recalling she has said that to me before.
She stared awkwardly at us.
“Why are your eyes kinda red?” She asked.
Eve smiled.
She was about saying something but I cut in.
“It’s nothing. Told me a little about her mom and we shed few tears.” I lied.
She glanced at me.
Why are my tryna hide what Jeremy said about Eve to Steph?
I have no idea why but anyway, I just did.
“Aww.” Steph said as she walked over and hugged her.
“I wish I was with you guys to shed some tears too. It’s been a while I did.” Steph said.
Good you weren’t with us.
