“Everything this time has been you.” I denied hurt, feeling a knot in her chest.“My intentions were to be free, not to hurt you.”"Be free?" I spat as rage took over me, I laughed suffering and accepting the truth, “Look at my room, you knew what mom has sacrificed to live in comfort… And that didn't stop you from destroying it. Tell me, did you have fun tearing up our photo album?”He denied regretfully.“I'll fix it.” he promised pleadingly.“I wish you could do that with our friendship.”“Rose, I'm your friend.”"Ages." I corrected and my own voice burned.“I never meant to hurt you.”“It's ironic that you say that when you've already destroyed half my life.”"Forgive me."“Just because of that word, mistakes are made, you never told me the truth and you thought you would solve it; your lack of sincerity, my trust and our friendship; with a big Forgive me. “It’s insulting.” I hiccupped to swallow back a sob.“Please put yourself in my shoes, I didn't want to put myself in danger,
"What about you?" he sounded offended.I cringed at the way his jaw contracted.“Well, well, well, it doesn't matter,” my aunt coughed falsely, “Honey, I have to go, but I'm not going to leave him alone, he'll stay with you, right?”“Auntie, it's not necessary…”“Done, I'll stay, you can go quietly.” He declared without emotion, he stood on the couch looking at the door.She assimilated everything with her mouth open.“Excellent, I'm leaving,” she announced, approaching me, “Thank goodness in love if you have good tastes. You want to be Photoshop and retouch it, retouch it, and retouch it again.”“Auntie, please.” I growled, glaring at her with my brown eyes.“You say goodbye to your mother.” She walked, shaking her hips as she walked towards the door. Which I closed in the nose when she was about to blow a kiss to Edrien.No, I wouldn't be more embarrassed."Future boyfriend?" His hardened face demanded an explanation from me.I sighed in resignation and sat down on the large sofa."
“With Monica?”This had to be a bad joke.“Yes, young lady, your room is on the third floor, hallway B, door 27.” The receptionist friendly informed me, handing me the keys to my new room.Room that I would share with Monica.Definitely, the universe hates me with all its dimensions."Thank you." I sputtered, taking the pair of keys, and following his instructions I find the door. I insert the key and it opens with ease.The room contained two beds, one clean and intact and the other messy and well used. It wasn't difficult to know which one was mine.I settle in my space, and I thank the institute for having created large rooms, I put my clothes in the closet, I personalized my half of the room and two hours after finishing I decide to take a shower, today we would not have classes due to moving.The bathroom turned out to be better than expected, large, clean, neat and fresh. A bath in the tub was an unavoidable option.The foam surrounded my body and the warm water massaged my anat
"It's a joke?" I gasped breathlessly, shocked by her proposition."No."I smiled, “When?”“Tomorrow, after class,” I nodded, too smiling. He holds back a chuckle and hardens his handsome features, “For now, come with me.”“It's just… Grean agreed to take me to my suite.” she uttered nervously and hesitantly.“I’ll do it, come on.” She began to walk believing that she would follow him.“Edrien.” I called him almost shouting, he was very far away.He turns to face me and frowns when he sees that I wasn't keeping up with him."That?"“Wait for me,” I denied, smiling, walking until I reached his side, “Shall we go to my suite or will you take me somewhere else?”He shoved his hands into the pockets of his leather jacket, looking around arrogantly.“Where do you want to go?”My inner self was jumping because I was in charge of the plans.“Um…” I mumbled thoughtfully, then clicked my tongue, “Do you have a favorite place in the whole world?”"I have it." he responded satisfied."Can you sho
“You kissed what?” I asked totally perplexed.It couldn't be true.“He kissed me.” she admitted, wanting to cry.What a shitty Monday."But what…?" I left the doubt in the tense sigh.She snatched the keys from me and approached to open the door on her own. Entering like Pedro through her house. I followed him and looked at Monica's side. She wasn't there, what Edrien gossiped about me turned out to be true. Monica doesn't spend the nights in her room. Suspicious.I stared at his empty bed more than I should, wondering which one would be sleeping. A plaintive sigh emerges from Abby drawing my concern to her in a second.She sat on my bed rubbing her hands over her face, frustrated.“Is he such a bad kisser?” I tried to joke with no chance of being successful at it.“No… it's… he… I…” you said half-heartedly, short-circuiting, shouting irritated for not knowing how to express yourself, “It shouldn't have happened! Not with him!”“Calm down, surely it was an impulse or he just kissed yo
Idiotized Tuesday.Why doesn't life love me?Okay, we better find out how big the universe is, which is easier, and then we get to the difficult part.I snorted bitterly, tying my boots as if I hated them. I grimace when I cut off blood circulation to my foot. Gosh, I tied them up too much! I huff and puff and undo the knot without wanting to put it back together.With my tennis shoes ready, as well as my entire physical appearance, I leave the room and don't stress about hiding my sleepiness. I did not sleep at all. And neither did Monica because she never arrived.The first person I was able to run into in the hallways is Gus. I avoid him, he made a gesture of greeting me, but the truth is that I don't want to know about him. For a while.I find my box and I leave my things in it, I take the books that I will need in today's classes.Physical. Chemistry. Language. Sociology.The formula of happiness.Underline sarcasm."What a face."I almost fell from fright. Next to me, leaning on
Maybe it's the sugar in the ice cream that has sweetened it because he's so close, I can feel his breath hitting my corners. My lips throb eager to be touched by him. He continues to reduce the space. And I sensed it would happen. I even closed my eyes to sharpen the touch.Nothing.Nothing happened."Fuck." I heard him mumbling in annoyance.I raise my eyelids suddenly and it's not there. I hear heavy footsteps on the metal of the stairs. Was going. I wouldn't chase him. Not now with my face on fire.It was so close. So inches away from a big kiss.I take a deep breath, looking up at the sky. I was so close. I exhale frustrated. My lips are still burning from wanting her taco. My cheeks also burn with shame.I resign myself and continue my ice cream, I don't know if it was, if he would move away or if he would distance himself. Of course I would.I had already finished my ice cream when I go to the penultimate step and I see him leaning on the alley wall, looking at the people passin
And Monica is not in our suite again. I shake my head as if she were her mother. What is that girl up to?I sit on my bed familiarizing myself with the silence of my empty suite, the bracelet and keys still in my hands joined on my lap. I'm so confused. Brighella turned out to be Freck. Nothing to do with the FourShadows, maybe they're just innocents with a reputation as villains. But I couldn't rule them out, what I found in Grean's basement was something that needed to be studied.Going back to Freck, who knew? What a surprise, Eliécer's best friend turned out to be part of the secret that led Aly to the grave. Queer. Wild.All my hypotheses are falling one by one. None of them are even close to the truth. It was clear to me that there was a great truth that linked everyone with the same thread. Starting with Eliécer.Oh, the lying Eliecer. The only one who knows more than necessary, he knows who is responsible for Aly's murderer. But he'd bet he knows about the Zanni too.I visuall
