Semua Bab Charlotte: Bab 1 - Bab 9

 I wake up screaming and crying. I hear footsteps and my room's door opens with a loud noise. It is my mom followed by my younger brother."Are you having nightmares again?" she asks with a voice full of worry. I don't answer. What should I tell her, I think.I have been having nightmares for a week now but I hadn't screamed until today. It was a nightmare which I will never want to recall. She sits down and caresses my hair. I return it with a tight hug. I wipe my tears and I look up at her worried face. She holds my hands with both of hers."Do you feel better?" she asks again."Yes" I mumble.She gets up. My brother hasn't spoken a single word the whole time. He is lo

He makes an eye contact and I feel as if I'm being pulled towards him but the truth that we had stopped talking to each other 3 years ago strikes in my mind. I feel pain and betrayal as I look into his eyes. Those eyes look so strange even though once they were the most comforting things for me but now all that I can see is shock reflected in them.I really don't know why  I see shock instead of hatred and amusement.I break the eye contact immediately and just enter my new classroom. As I take a seat, I feel as if I'm some sort of thing that is put on a display in a circus or a museum and the entire world is making a joke out of me. God must be playing some sort of game with me. I don't understand why does he want me to meet Cedric again after everything that had taken place 3 years ago that had resulted in ending our friendship.As I'm thinking all these, I see him entering the class. As he passes by, I feel suffocated and stand

Cedric's POVI park my car and enter the main building. I take a deep breathe and climb the stairs.When I saw Charlotte yesterday, I was shocked. I could see the similar shock in her. I could clearly see the pain I've caused in her eyes. The girl who cared so much for me and who was always there for me seemed so distant when I saw her yesterday.I can say that I know her the most but after yesterday's encounter, I questioned myself and my claim that do I really know her. If I had known her the most, I would have never hurt her. When she broke the eye contact and entered the class, I felt so bad. I had expected her to smile at least but why would she after everything that I've done to her.When I entered the class, she was seated beside the widow. I still remember it very clearly the way we used to talk for hours seated beside the window. As I recall these things, I reach the corridor. As I take a turn to walk to the class, I see her standing in front of

I wake up from a loud noise coming from the kitchen downstairs. It sounds like juicer to me or maybe a grinder. I have never been able to distinguish the sound made by these two appliances. I can see that the sun is shining brightly from my room's window. I don't like sleeping in a dark room you know. I prefer when the moonlight lights my room at night. I grab my phone from the bedside table and check the time. It is already 8 in the morning. Now I realize why there was a noise coming from the kitchen. I get up and make my bed. I like keeping my room neat and clean mom says that I have OCD. I take a refreshing shower and come back to my room.I open my wardrobe and I decide that I will dress up in casual today as I'm meeting my friends. I wear a pair of ash grey jeans and black tank top and do a light make up. I leave my hair beca

I smile and follow Claire. As I am climbing down the stairs, I come across a picture. It is mine, Amber's and Claire's. Amber is really creative in such things and she has literally created a collage. This makes me feel really happy. I continue to climb the stairs. The entire house smells like coffee now. I enter the kitchen. Claire is seated while Amber is leaning on the kitchen's counter and talking to her. I pull a chair and sit down facing both of them. Amber gives me a steaming mug of coffee and I take a sip. When I look up, I notice that they are looking at me. Their expression is a mixture of worry and curiosity."Amber told me that you had an encounter with Cedric" Claire says finally breaking the silence.I simply move my head in approval. Claire continues to look at me.
