Chapter 2
That weekend, I reluctantly went to tuition. I was late. I was begging my parents to let me skip tuition. No such luck. Again, I was stuck behind him. I didn’t even look at him once that day. I was busy thinking, “Should I tell him about Rose?” Sally looked at me.
“What’s wrong? You look really sad…” I looked at her and everyone else in the room. They were whispering and glancing at me. I smiled the friendliest smile I could manage.
“Well…” I told her EVERYTHING. Rose. Wane. Bree. Everything.

After 3 excruciating hours, I was finally allowed to go. Still, I hesitated. I watched everyone get up and leave until it was only me, Sally, him, and his friends. I got up. Plugged my ears with music at full blast and walked out. As I pulled on the door, I glanced at Sally. She was talking to him.

I saw their mouths move. I just went out the door. I can’t stand it. I can’t like him because Rose likes him. ARGH!

That night, I tossed and turned in bed. I absolutely couldn’t sleep. I read my books but I still couldn’t sleep. Staring at the ceiling, I felt my pillow vibrate. It was just my phone. I lazily reached for it. “Who’s this??” I asked myself. On the screen it showed an unknown number. I picked up anyway.
“Hello? Who’s this?”
“Hi. Er.. Is this Eve?” Who the hell is this??
“Yea… Who’s this??”
“Erm… I don’t know if you know who I am.. I’m Wane, Wane Hagen. You sat behind me a few times before… like today…” I gasped.
“How did you get my number?”
“Your friend, Sally.”
“Okay… remind me to kill her later..”
He laughed. He texted and called me like once a week. I really couldn’t complain. One day, he asked about Rose.
“I overheard you the other day.”He said.
“Do you want her number?”
“Yea… Sure…”

A few weeks later, he called less often. I got frustrated with him. I texted him but he didn’t text back. I called him but he didn’t call back.
One day, I decided to ask him why. Just out of curiousity.

Finally, the weekend came. I waited and waited for a chance to talk to him away from prying ears. Half an hour before the end of tuition, he got up and went to the toilet. I waited 3 minutes and went after him. I stood there in front of the door, waiting.
*flush* *click*
The door swung open.
“Oh, hey..” he smiled and headed off to class. I pulled his arm.
“Wait, I need to talk to you.”
He hesitated. “O-okay… What’s up?”
“Why don’t you answer my calls?”
“I’ve… er… Been busy.”
“Oh… Okay…” I loosened my grip. A brief image crossed my mind. Him. Rose. Walking hand in hand. My eyes widened. I gripped him arm tighter.
“Ow..”
“Did you use me to get to Rose?!” Silence.
“Tell me honestly.. Now..” His face darkened. His smile faded into a thin line.
“Tell me, please!” I begged him. I have to know. My eyes, slightly moist with tears, looked deep into his eyes. All the while tugging at his arm.
“Yea… Sort of… But-“
“I hate you! I cant believe I actually like you!” Tears streamed down my face.
“Wait! What-?” He grabbed my shoulders when I tried to run. I tried to push him off but to no prevail. He was stronger than me. I stopped trying and glared at him. I shouldn’t have said anything! I should’ve let it be!
“You heard me… I hate you! Now let me go!” I squirmed.
“The other one… Please?” He looked at me with pleading eyes. He looked so… cute. Rage enveloped me. “He just manipulated you! How can you still say he’s cute??!” My mind screamed.

I kept my mouth shut and my eyes closed. His grip loosened.
“At first yeah… I did… I liked Rose. I even asked her to be my girlfriend… Then-“
It hurts too much. The ache in my heart got worse. It throbbed with pain! I covered my ears with my hands, just hoping this was a dream. In the darkness I could hear him. I opened my eyes and ran to the door to the stairs.
“Eve!” He managed to grab me again. I shut my eyes tight. I could feel his breath on my hands, desperate to tell me something. I step back.
“Eve!” I step back. I could feel his hands shaking my wrists, trying to pull my hands off my ears. I step back.
“Eve!“ This time his voice had a bit of panic in it. I step back.
Then, I felt myself falling. I opened my eyes just to see it fade again.
*thump* “Eve!!! Someone help!”
Darkness.
