Never Look Back Again
The break didn't last long, and before I knew it, I was back at college.
But not even two weeks in, I saw Nathan again, standing outside the campus gates. He looked pale and tired, as if he hadn't been sleeping.
When he saw me, his eyes lit up. "Mavis!"
I almost pretended not to hear him, but he called out so loudly that I couldn't ignore it. I sighed. "What are you doing here?"
"I… I just wanted to see how you're doing."
I smiled, trying to keep it light. "I'm doing great. Made lots of new friends here."
