MISUNDERSTANDING

CHAPTER- 11

MISUNDERSTANDING 

Liya's P.O.V 

I was so excited to visit Switzerland. I informed Matt, Joe and Lucy about it, while jumping in excitement but they didn't react. I asked them childishly why were they not excited. Then Lucy said that they knew it already, Jim decided the trip when all of them were ready! But so what? I got to know it now and I am going to enjoy my day by laughing and dancing. I was never so active before, actually I never got a chance to enjoy this much...

I reached home and started packing my clothes. I chose all the fancy dresses I had. It is going to be wonderful! Suddenly I noticed something, the whole suitcase was filled with black color dresses and just three to four other color dresses. I again unpacked it, and then started finding some other color dresses rather than black...When I completed packing the suitcase, I packed my cosmetics and some jewelry in my purse which I was going to carry. Hell! Someone kicked the door hardly so it can open, I turned around to see whom it was. And I found Jim standing in front of me angrily. I asked him why his temper was so high. He tried to relax himself and said "why did you hide from me that Lucy and Matt are dating each other?" What? Who the heck said him about this, I just tried to make him feel relax but he was angry as a s**t! "Who said you that Jim? I too don't know what you are trying to say!" I said, wishing not to argue with him. He then fake smiled trying to control his anger and said "what do you think? The technology is nothing! I just saw her recent post on i********: with Matt, and you know what was written in the caption? Oh sorry, I forgot that you don't know anything about their relationship. Let me say you. She wrote 'my boyfriend' in the caption". I tried to explain him a lot that I didn't do anything on purpose. But he was not listening to me at all! He kicked my suitcase and left the room, his face became red with anger! WHY? A big misunderstanding was created between both of us. I had no idea what to do.

I thought it would be good if I try to explain him the whole incident again. So I ran to his room and knocked on the door ... I waited for two to three minutes but he didn't reply. I knocked again but a bit harder this time. He asked "who's there?" His voice sounded painful and broken. I slightly opened the door and walked inside, then I kept my hand on his shoulder. He pushed my hand hardly. I then said him everything step by step that happened with me and why I didn't say him about it. He looked at me with disgust and said "I need some time. Please leave me alone." I walked out so that he gets some personal time with himself..... 

It was dark but Jim still didn't come out from his room. I was so sacred, some horrible thoughts started entering in my mind. I just shook my head and tried my best to not think about it again. Deep inside I was taunting myself for not saying him what happened. He had the whole right to hate me but I wanted him to accept the truth and move on. He was tall and handsome! Girls could easily fall in love with him for his personality and his class... It's all my fault, I should have said him the truth! But what should I do now?

* * * *

I woke up and walked to Jim's room, the door was opened. I got shocked seeing him, he was literally packing his bag. I softly knocked the door and asked permission to get in. He said 'hmm'. I got in and asked him with low voice "are you okay? I am sorry Jim!" He then turned to me and smiled "yes I am alright! I need some more time to trust you as I used to do before" he said. It really hurt me when he said this... I walked out the room and had an encounter with Robet. He stared me for some time and then said "what are you doing here, little girl?" Again little girl! Why they have to call me little girl? Can't they see I am 18 years old, an adult! I stamp his shoes (actually on purpose) and said "oops! I am so sorry, you know little girls mostly do this mistake". He opened his mouth to say something but Jim called him for some help. He gave me a deadly gaze and went. Whatever it is but I am happy that at least Jim tried to move on. Do I have to go to school?.... Oh s**t I am going to be late today! I ran to my room and got ready. Finally when I was leaving Jim stopped me, I asked him what he wants, he just gave me a smile or it might also be called as a fake smile and said "your three friends and I am going to buy a small gift for aunt, so are you interested to join us?" Now! Ugh.. I hate this! I asked him for some time so that I can keep my bag and wear something else....

We went to a mall and bought some gifts for auntie. Jim bought a make up kit for her, Matt and Lucy bought a dress for her, Joe bought a bracelet for her and I bought a watch. We hurried back to our home. Only two days were left and we had to do so much! I helped everyone to wrap the gifts. All of us were tired. I and Jim asked the servant to get some snacks. I didn't had my breakfast too, as I was getting late to school. But see I didn't even stepped in school... It was the first time I was going to visit the  airport and travel in aeroplane. But the best of all was dad was not coming with us to ruin my freedom.

In evening dad joined us. He gave us our tickets and taught us some safety measures that we can use, just in case we are in danger. Few hours later we had our dinner and Matt, Lucy and Joe left to their houses.... Okay I am completely ready to travel now. I called auntie to have some talk with her. She was very excited to meet me. She loves me a lot, yeah she loves Jim and Robet too but less than me. She often says me about the incidents that happened with mom and her. They were best sisters!

A single moment of misunderstanding

 is so poisonous 

that it makes us forget the hundred

 lovable moments spend together within 

a minute. {A short proverb based on the episode.}
