~Xander~ Waiting... Waiting... Waiting...My mind was so much like the ocean; I watched for the incoming ships of my thoughts drowning inside me.Is she going to be okay? What the heck were doctors doing with her? Why is there no information about her? How long are they going to take? I was continuously burning in anguish, and that troublesome moment didn’t let me rest for a second. But when I ask myself why this unsettled anger and on whom? Something told me it was me. Why didn’t I reach on time? Why was I not there to protect her?And the essential thing; Who the hell did this thing to her?That person would be dead from my hand. I will drown him the same way.On the next thought, I literally planned the slow death of that unknown person who tried to kill her.I was in constant pain

After Matt left, I settled on the chair next to my study table, thinking about the last words he left on my door.How could Matt expect me to forgive him? He knew Xander was the biggest bully who liked to trouble other people. How could I forget he was the one who made my life hell since the day I landed at this college? First, he mocked me in front of everyone, and then he kept that bucket.“Ahhh... I hate him....” I screamed, throwing cushions on the walls. Why should I forgive him? He doesn’t deserve my forgiveness. I looked in the mirror with a disgusted expression that filled my face with Xander’s thoughts.“Is he really so bad for me?” Thinking about him, the only thing that happened was my blood boiling, and my nostrils flared with anger.

 ~Xander~Her emotionless eyes hurt me more than her words. She hates me for the crime I didn’t commit. I could not talk or present my innocence, and left the hospital; after making sure she was okay and out of danger.She was okay if she could blame me for everything.The anger was busting in me. Aoife’s words didn’t leave me for a second. I returned home in a rage and threw my phone on the wall. How is this even possible? Didn’t she feel a single thing for me? How easy was it to say she hates me?And who the hell wants to frame me against her?I closed my eyes and tried to think hard. Where did I leave the phone at the time of the messa

~AOIFE~ It’s been a week, and I was back to my routine work. And not to forget, I still didn’t know who wanted to kill me like that, but I tried my best to stay low from Xander, and his friends' radar. Out of the blue, I got a card, and it was from none other than Xander. He apologized for his action, but as I promised Matt. I am done with him. I threw that card in the trash and pretended I had never seen it. For the last two days, he tried to talk to me and came to the library, but I was lucky to hide myself with Miss Agnes help. Watching him made me feel vulnerable, and I wouldn’t say I liked the feeling of giving him a chance to clear his part. I hoped he would stop trying to reach me, but I was wrong. Well, how long? I ignored all his apology gestures. It’s Friday, and Luka, Clara, and I planned a movie night. Aunt Agnes needed to see her doctor; She left early. It’s only me who was responsible for closing the library. I dropped a message to meet them in an hour and wrapped my

~Aoife~ How innocent those glossy brown eyes looked when they were calm, but how did I forget how much pain they have gifted me in the last few days? I was angry at him for ruining everything I loved, but the way he blamed me for sleeping with others and making assumptions about Caleb hurt me. And it broke me more when he knew he was hurting me, but he didn’t stop himself. Why did he want to hurt me? Why did he act like I was responsible for answering him for everything in my life? His words worked like a knife that cut my heart, but I could feel the pain in his eyes. There is a lot more going on in our minds. I was unsure about him, but his constant apologies and continuous action didn’t justify his answers. All I knew was everything he offered me shattered me, and when he dragged my mom’s name, I slapped him. Yes, I slapped him to make him stop whining things about me. I wanted to run somewhere. I could not understand what was going on between Xander and me. The more I tried to
