I just slept, not wanting to think more.
The next day I got ready and went to college. Lucas was not there, I directly went to my class."What have you decided?" Noah asked suddenly as I entered the clasz."Hm?" I couldn't understand so quickly. "Oh that.. Well...""Answer me!" he said."Well.. I can't blame him you know.." I said.He didn't say anything and went out of the class. I went to my seat and sat down.Noah's POVI was angry. Angry on her stupidity. I then went to look for Lucas. He was with his friend."Hey Bro" He said with a smirk again."Why did you blame her for your shit?" I asked."Well I didn't, she took the blame deliberately" he said."Lucas. Step back before this matter goes worse" I warned him."Oh really, Noah?" Liam said.Liam. His best friend. As shitty as Lucas.Noah’s POV"Do you know what will happen if your parents come to know about it?""I don't care about it" I said."But why?""It's enough. If she's safe, then fine""You like her, don't you?" he repeated his question."Stop asking that Xan. I also don't know the answer" I said truthfully."Fine then. But make sure your parents are not called or you'll be homeless""I know. Bye""Bye"Astrid's POVAfter coming home, I did my daily chorus."Hey, dear Astrid, you aren't going to hang out with your friends? You used to go a lot!" my mom said."Yeah mom, just some tests are coming, so" I said."Hm well, do good!" she said.I was thinking about so many things. She's happy right now. Because of Lucas? Yes.. Because of him. And the test. My teacher told today that there will be tests three days later. Whenever I think of test, all I think a
Astrid's POVI came back when Ava didn't come out with me. Nor did anyone else. It's lunch period! Why are they still in class?? And Ava sent me out.I went back. Everyone was sitting and just when I entered, they all went outside to lunch. I caught up with Ava and went too.Noah's POVShe went out of the class. No one was left and Lucas was also going. I went out too. We were in the corridor. I mean Lucas and me."Noah!" Lucas called me. I stopped."What?" I asked turning around. He came to me and spoke in my ears."Guess this time Astrid will get the most memorable surprise!" he said. I stood still. Although I wanted to smash him, but I just can't."No... Lucas... You're not going to do that" I said."Well why?" he said."Because... Because you promised me and I took the blame too""Promise of a devil? Forget about it" he
Astrid's POVNoah is really something. First he used to be suspicious about Lucas and now he was asking so much about Liam. I mean, come on boy. Everyone is not so bad as he thinks.I was really excited for the next day. Huh, my birthday was coming after an entire year! 365 days! I can't believe it. I'm so patient..I slept early. My mom was not at home. She went out of station to meet some relatives. I never understood the concept of relatives. I mean who is who... All these father's sister's aunt's, huhh. I don't understand. So, I don't know who she went to meet.I was just kinda angry. How can she leave me on my birthday.I slept and waited for the next day.I woke up early the next day. I can never sleep when I'm excited.Noah's POVI couldn't sleep the whole night. What is he going to do?? I can't let him succeed in his intentions. Not at all. I
Astrid's POVI went to my room and got ready with my college uniform. I went out of my house. I didn't know where his house was, so I assumed that I have to go to the college first.I went to college and saw him standing on the gate."Hey, sorry, I didn't tell you my address" he said."It's fine" I said."Let's go then""Hm" I said.He took me in his car and then to his house."Where are your.. Parents?" I asked as I entered the house and found it empty."Well they're not at home, they have some business""Oh.. Ok" I said.Well, I was kinda uncomfortable being alone with him in this empty house. I thought his parents were at home at least."Well... What will we do now?" I asked."Let's-" he was interrupted by my phone.My phone rang. It was Noah. Lucas saw it."Don't pick it up" he said."It's fine. I'm not gonna tell him, don't worry"
Noah's POVI ran to his house. I know where it is. I reached there in about 7 minutes and then I kicked open the door.I found no one, so I went to the rooms. The first room was locked. So I knocked.He opened the door, that scoundrel."Where... Where is she???" I yelled. He just moved a little, giving me way. I saw her half lying on the bed, unconscious.I ran towards her. I was about to take her hand, when he spoke."Touch her again and she'll probably die" he said with a smirk. I kinda understood what he might have done with her.I stopped at the spot, not knowing how to take her to the hospital. She fainted, so I had to."You couldn't save her self respect, Noah!" he said and I didn't reply."Well, you know what happened today?? Her lips..." he was speaking when I interrupted."Shut up, you bi**h! You touched the wrong person... You'll pay for it!" I yelled and just
Noah's POVI was dumbstruck with what I was seeing. Is this the reality?The report read :Name : Astrid YoungAge/Sex : 19/FCondition : Fainted due to minor heart stroke. Assumptions include that disease was old, got triggered because of some incident.Treatment : This tablet once a day for two weeks.We recommend that she should be taken care of with love. That's what can heal her."Doctor... How can she have a heart stroke at this age?? Why are you telling me, this late?? Is she alright???""Yeah, she's fine. Don't worry, it was a minor one""Oh ok doctor" I said.Suddenly she noticed a wound on my hand."Noah!! What's this wound?" she asked me."Nothing important" I said."Show me!" she said and examined my hand. There were cuts."Don't waste time and tell me immediately how did this happen so that I can correctly cure them" I sai
Noah's POVThe doctor told me that I needed rest, but I went to check on her for the last time. I saw her sleeping peacefully, so I went to my ward and laid down. The doctor gave me certain pain killers and some serious medications too, and told me I would be well in a day or two. I also asked about Lucas. Not that I care about where the hell he is, but to make sure that he bears more than me and stay here for a longer period. The nurse told me that he got admitted too and he'll stay for around three days.The day I stayed in college and she did too. She was so asleep for the whole day, that I asked the doctor if she's asleep or unconscious. But, she was only asleep. Oh yeah. Xander took leave for the day, so he will come tomorrow. He gave me a few calls and I told him that he doesn't need to come see me.The night, it was horrible. Not scary, no ghosts, nothing of that sort, but nightmares. Nightmares of my parents.. and my sister..
Ava's POVI couldn't meet Astrid the whole day yesterday because Ms. Sophie was strict as hell. At the dispersal, I waited for her at the gate, but she didn't come, so I guess she already left. The next day I came and waited for her in class. When she didn't come, I decided to go and see in the infirmary. But Ms. Sophie told me that it's not allowed. It's allowed, I know. But no one will fight her. I'll meet her in the dispersal. And ya.. Noah and Lucas were also in the infirmary. But Liam told me to stay away from Lucas and Noah both. So.. I didn't go to meet them either.It was dispersal, and I ran to the infirmary. I met Astrid on the gate itself."Astrid! What happened to you? You didn't come to class for two days?" I inquired."Nothing Yaar. I'm fine.. Well, can we go home? I'm tired" she said."Yeah" I said and dragged her to the bus station. I saw Noah behind her, but Lucas was not there. Did something happen?
