*Part Four - Seriously, Someone Tell Me What's Going On*
And there I was thinking that I of all people will get a happy ending. Well I guess I did that day. And I really thought he was at least a bit different from all the other jokers who've asked me out. But there is not a single difference except Charlie ("oh so innocent") is a smooth mastermind. I can't believe I nearly fell for that "it's different with you" crap. He promised he'd still be my friend. SO WHERE IS HE WHEN I NEED HIM? Drooling after some other girl who is on the market as single and available now that I've been deemed as single and not available on those standards.
And I thought he changed. I really did.
"Hey Alison!"
Jerk. Like I'd give you a damn anymore. I was there for you every single time whether I was infatuated or not. Loyal to the friendship. But you. YOU.
YOU can't stop thinking about that girl (sure's she nice, pretty, kind, sensible, blah blah blah and deserves better than you. Like moi except I won't say that now) when I'm trying to talk to you about something serious. Something upsetting. You couldn't even bother to listen.
It's not like I was his first and I'm definitely not his last. I am so infuriated. I'm not speaking to you my dear Charlie. I'm WALKING AWAY.
"LET. GO. OF. ME."
"What's bitten you?! Did I do something wrong?"
Yeah you did. You clueless mannerless rogue.I don't care that you were infatuated with me last week and a new girl this week (God knows I've seen you change preferences every week) and now all you can think about is some girl and yourself and all I can think about is, Where the HELL is my friend??? :'|
"Let me go Charlie. I'm busy."
"Fine! Be that way. See if I care."
"No, you don't care. I know that. Bye."
So much hurt on his face? I'm so glad. Last day of school is SUCH a blast!
Now I'm alone. Standing all by myself in the gallery of the ground may not be a great idea but it's there I inevitably wind up to think. I've been acting bad too but I felt really hurt when he blew me off like that. So I guess being friends with a guy who once proposed to you is so NOT the best idea. I guess I have to let him go.
So moving on with my life. Happily Ever After.
Or maybe not.
"What are you doing here?"
"I don't have to answer to you."
"You just did."
Whatever Charlie. You want to say something, say it and leave. Till then I'm gonna admire the scenery.
"Will you please look at me?"
No comments.
"Fine. Be that way."
Still no comments. Why are you still standing there? ....
.... This is starting to get annoying. Yet strangely I'm ok with it. Hmmm... Nope. I'm NOT ok with it. Goodbye Charlie.
And I left him standing staring stonily over the grounds... Just to reject a gazillion calls all week. Ok maybe not a gazillion but around 3 or 4 calls per day. Curiously enough we should be studying. It's study holidays after all. And I know he'll be doing his work yet he is being so persistent. I guess it won't hurt to answer one call.
"Hello?"
*Silence on the other side*
"Hello? Who is this?"
"Check your caller id. Or have you deleted me from your contacts already?"
*Silence on my end. How dare he make such accusations!?*
"Fine. Just clear my doubt for me."
"What doubt?"
"Have you dumped me? As in are you through with our friendship?"
"One. I can't dump you. Two. Why do you even care?"
"Since when did you become such a...."
"Such a what?"
"Hm. Never mind."
"Such a WHAT?"
"I said NEVER MIND"
"Fine. You know what? I don't want to talk to you. Yes I'm through with the friendship. And you, mister, should be studying."
*Silence on his side*
"Hello?"
*Still silent*
Click.
And he hung up on me. Since when did I become such a jerk? This can't be it. It can't be. I'm calling back.
"Hey Charlie, I just wanted to apo- "
"Leave me alone. You don't want to talk to me nor do I wanna talk to you. It's mutual. Bye."
"But - "
Click.
Can it get worse than this?
