"When you start to get to know someone from the heart, you can recognize their moods, their essence without them telling you about it." [Jacqueline]
*******
[Jacqueline's POV]
After the teacher let me off the hook with a warning. I sat back down on the seat and glared at Rohan who in turn rolled his eyes at me mouthing 'it's no big deal.' My mind raced with anger. I was not the person who was even scolded once by the teacher. Neither I was the kind of student who won't pay attention to her classes. My biggest dream was to either die or perhaps get away from my home which was only possible if I could make myself something in life. Someone who can pay for her life. Someone who can gain freedom. This was the first time I was scolded by a teacher just because of him. I felt my eyes stung with tears.

"Every human needs a friend, someone who can curse the people who hurt you more than you do, someone who will want to hurt the people who hurt you more than you do, someone who will make you laugh in situations you know nothing other than crying, someone who can listen to your nonsense overthinking imaginations. Just someone!"[Jacqueline] [Jacqueline's POV] I grew up hearing the admonition that friends are the root of all evil, that your company will decide who you are going to be. Today, however, my perception changed. Friends, in and of themselves, are neither evil nor good; it is only what happens with us once we make friends that what qualities we absorb from them. But friends can be a bubble of happiness, for maintaining our happy lives. We need to have friends to keep us alive and not just simply living a boring life. Rohan was livid at her response." And what makes you think Jacqueline wants you to do this for her? What makes you think
"Sooner or later, you will find your way!" [Remo] ******* [Remo's POV] My level of frustration was at its peak today, no matter how much I tried to stay calm. It wasn't helping in anyway. Granted I do have confined patience, but staying in the sunlight as one and another girl play hard to get has sent me back into the rage I was trying to control. I stared up at the building of my school, the front although painted in red still appeared darker than red, almost maroon. Even with the sunlight, it didn't shine. But I hoped at least my future would! I was at the top position of the school, the head boy. Perhaps there was a time when I wasn't the best but I was one now and it has served me well. Remo D'souza was the perfect student, star singer of the school band. But he wasn't still what I wanted him to be. I wanted to be at the top of my city, or maybe the world. I craved stardom. I needed it to s
"Cry in front of a mirror when you are hurt enough, you will be a witness to your sufferings. And then you will realize your reality."*******[Jacqueline]"You can fill your form over there." The receptionist pointed to a chair in the outside corner of the doctor's room. One wall was of all glass doors and there was a garden outside while the opposite wall was filled with different rooms of different doctors where everybody was sitting, perhaps waiting for their time to be called for their appointment. The garden outside though had a calming effect on me and I exhaled thanking her with a smile.I pulled out a pen from my backpack seeing as the phone had managed to work its way up to the top again. It was flaring with notifications, one after another. I shoved it farther inside without looking at it.I held the form to my chest and walked up to the chair, and started filling in my mom's info. Writing all the age and diseases related info, I held it to my chest and wal
"Your emotions will first break you and then make you. Let the process take its course." [Jacqueline] …………….. [Jacqueline] For the next five minutes, I was going crazy waiting for his response. Perhaps I shouldn't have said that. I was wrong, I shouldn't have judged him. He must have his reasons for whatever he said. He didn't reply though. "Would you like some tea? Jacky?" I looked up from my phone, almost lifting my hand to shield my eyes from her notice. Thankfully, she was busy dragging the table from the door near my bed to place the tray on the table. Her shoulders slouched as she tried to balance the tray in her other hand. Her hair was tied in a bun, with few falling over her face. She was wearing a black night suit.
"The self is reformed from inside, the heart is reformed by love, and the soul is reformed by positivity." [Remo] ******* [Remo] My head pounds. I dug my face deeper in the pillow when I heard the door being slammed open, I knew who dared to open my door like that and I was in no mood to tolerate her today, not after having a depressing night. I hear the rustling of clothes as she peels the blanket off me. A weight dropped on my back, even though I was expecting it. It didn't mean the damage was less. The wind was knocked out of my lungs. I groan loudly to portray my discomfort when she settles on top of me, her tiny hands banging on my back as she musters all her vocal cords power to scream. "Wake up Bhai. Wake up."
'How can you feel scared, when you have blood to shed.'[Rohan] [Rohan] "So, it was all a drama? The attack, the injury on him?" I exclaimed, my mind jumping from being pissed off to going crazy beyond reason. It was last evening, and my father was attacked when he was enjoying in the garden. The guards were sleeping, while Sam was nowhere to be found when I reached home. The only thing I got to know was that the bodyguard we hired two months ago, A man who vowed to protect me with his life, was a traitor. He had somehow gotten his hands to the direction of our warehouses and his sole reason seemed to destroy us. I kept pacing back and forth in the bedroom of my bodyguard, my glare moving from all of my father's men to Uncle Sam who was supposed to watch over my sick bodygua
"You have to learn to be alone. Learn to do everything individually, people are going to leave you sooner or later anyway." [Jacky]*******[Jacqueline] It's been three days since Remo talked to me. Aside from sending me a two-word text, after my apology "it's okay" there was nothing. He didn't chat with me. Not even for once, he tried even though he was online most of the time. As if he specifically wanted to show me that he was online, he changed his display picture. I scrolled through his pictures like a souvenir, like trophies on the shelf. Watching as one by one his friends, beautiful girls commented on his pictures and he replied to each one of them nicely. I honestly had no idea what I should do. I wanted to talk to him but I didn't want to come out as a bother. I wanted to ask him if he was still angry, but I didn't know I should. 'Did I say something that touched his borderline?' Sometimes it was better for
"When your mental health isn't in the best state. Give yourself a break. And don't feel guilty about it."[Author] ******* Jacqueline: I felt bad for Tina. Like real bad! But I was sure she didn't need my empathy. I looked at her face once more, she looked terrible. Blood, blood, everywhere on her face. I could feel that her bleeding had not stopped despite her friends filling her nose with tissues. Her friends helped her up as they took her away shouting profanities in a much lower tone than I would have expected from them. Unexpectedly Rohan's head popped in front of me blocking my view of her back. I grabbed the corner of the table to balance myself. Hi
