Stella Harper
Nurse's Office
My head effing hurts so much.. Is someone beside me again?.. My vision is so blurry.. But I'm pretty sure it's not Melody.
“Stella? You're awake!”
Leo? F**k. I better pretend I'm asleep.. Wait why? Melody is just paranoid..
“Leo.. Why are you here?”
“I'm worried about you. Are you okay? Is there something that hurts?”
“No. I'm good.”
He's worried? Yeah, right.. But.. What if..—
“Im here if you need me.”
If I need him? What does he mean? Why is he acting like this..
“Thank—”
“Leo! What're you doing here?! Get away from her!”
“Melody? What are you—”
“I said get out, Leo!!”
“What're you so worked up for? You have no rights to get me out.”
“Get out or I'll make you.”
She's really pissed off.. I've never seen her like that before.. Its.. Scary.
I watch as Leo leaves the room, Melody keeping her death stare to him.
“Why are you here, Melody?”
“Do you want to f**king die?!”
She cries when she's mad.. I can't help it, Melody. I'm sorry.
“Answer me.!”
“I would if he's the cause!”
“...Wow. You're so foolish, Stella.”
“I'm not! Stop telling me what to do!”
“Don't say I didn't warn you.”
I lost my bestfriend. I wanted to apologise, but not a single muscle in my body moved. I just.. Wanted to cry.
Melody Georgia
I am sitting outside the nurse's office door, crying. I couldn't have the courage to tell her what I know.. what I heard.. what I saw.
“I'm so pathetic.. sob”
Leo Wilson.. You're cruel. I hate you. You ruined our friendship.. Her life.
“Are you alright, miss?”
I turned my head up to look at who was talking.
“sniffle Who are you..?”
“Evan Hans.”
He handed me his handkerchief.. How sweet..
“..Thank you..”
“And what's your name, pretty lady?”
I wiped my tears with his handkerchief. I tried hiding my blush, I can't help it when someone compliments me.
“M-Melody Georgia.”
“What a pretty name for a pretty lady. Are you okay? You seem to be crying. Do you mind if I help you cool off?”
“I.. I don't mind. I could use some company..”
“That's great. Would you like to sit somewhere more comfortable?”
“Okay.”
He led me to the school garden. I didn't know it could be so beautiful at night.
There were fireflies flying over the bushes, the stars and the moon seem to be much brighter than before. The night breeze is cold but calming..
“The night is beautiful, isn't it?”
“Yes it is.. I've never seen it like this before. I wish i brought my camera with me.”
“You use a camera? I do, too. I have it right now.”
He opened his bag and pulled out a camera.
“Do you want to use it?”
“Ah, no, no.. You can take pictures yourself, Evan.”
“If you say so.”
I watched him take pictures around. Suddenly, a firefly landed on my nose. I heard a camera click and I turned to Evan who has taken a picture of me.
“Hey!.. Give me that camera!”
“Why? You're cute here. Please let me keep it.”
“Ugh.. Fine..”
I laughed it off unconsciously, I glanced at him to see his smile.. He's cute.. Wait! What am I thinking?!
“You're laughing. Are you cooled off now?”
“I guess so.”
“Are you okay with sharing what made you cry?”
I guess I wouldn't lose anything if I told him. He wouldn't care, right?
“Well.. A friend of mine likes someone for a long time now. But, the person she likes doesn't feel the same.. After a day, she started coughing up petals which is a symptom of Hanahaki Disease.”
“That's too bad.. I hope your friend gets well..”
“The chances are low right now.. You see, my friend wouldn't let go of her feelings for him.”
“it's understandable. Liking someone even for just a minute, can take hours or even years to move on.”
“You're right. But what's worse is that.. I heard Leo talk about using my friend to do his homeworks and projects..”
“Leo? Leo Wilson?.”
Shoot.. I wasn't supposed to say that.. Ugh, my stupid mouth spilled again. Well, there's no point in denying it now..
“..Yeah.”
“He's.. My bestfriend.”
