Mystery in Crimson University (The Unsettled Maybes)

|Spill the Tea|

Winter

Today was Saturday and Flow decided not to leave the school and be with her family. We are both busy arranging some information on the corkboard, we still have a few clues about the case but because of her help, we are progressing bit by bit.

We got distracted by the knock on our door. We are both sitting on the floor and I decided to stand up to open the door. I reach the door on its third knock and it was Eulliyer as expected. I told him to come to my room so we can continue solving the case. Eulliyer also didn't go home as I do.

"Flow was here?" he asked in a low voice, he still doesn't know that Flow offer some help and I was just about to tell him all the details. I step aside so he can enter the room. "I'll tell you everything, get inside!"

Flow got distracted by Eu's presence, Eu sits on the couch that was near where I and Flow were sitting. Eu's eyes were fixed on the corkboard that was already hung on the wall.

"What was the meaning of this?" now Eu's eyes were fixed on the floor and o what Flow was doing. She was cutting some information from the documents that Inspector Rowan gave to me. I sit on the couch next to where Eu was sitting. "She was also good at this stuff and she offers to help us in solving this case before more students get killed."

"We are not putting her life in danger, Winter. I already worried about you solving this case and now you want to put Flow's life in danger as well?" he was furious and I can see it in his eyes and hear it in his voice. Flow was just looking at the floor, maybe she feels scared about my friend's reaction to our plan.

"She will just work on the shadow, EU!" Eulliyer didn't respond and he just stares at me. "No one will know that she was helping us, even the campus police. She will just give us some clues and information she will find in this case. She will be the brain while we act as the body." I continue explaining.

"How about the other factor, huh Winter?" I was confused by his response. What is he talking about? What other factors?

"Did you think about that, Winter? You easily trust her?" I couldn't catch what he was saying."What are you talking about?" I ask him, I couldn't understand his reaction right now and I feel so stupid cause I couldn't read him right now. Why is he so angry? I already assured him that Flow will be safe on this seat up.

"He was saying that...." Flow slowly raise her head and look at me full of sadness in her eyes. Some tears can be seen on the side of her eyes.

"What if I'm the bad guy in here? You just trust me and told me everything even the classified information about this case." In a blink of her eyes, her tears drop and she immediately wipes them and forces herself to smile. Her eyes turn red as well as her chicks and nose.

I turn to Eu and his arms were crossed on his chest and was looking away from Flow's sight."Eulliyer!" I called his name and he slowly turns to me."I also trust you and I couldn't see any connection to Flow from thus two victims, how come you think that Flow maybe the bad guy in here?" I was furious as well because he can think of some bad things to Flow. Like him, Flow was the type of person that can't harm anyone. She was helpful to her friends and act like a mother around her friends even though she was younger than her friends.Flow hold my hand and smile at me. "It's okay, Winter. His reaction was normal." She defends EU.

"You only say that because you like him..." I immediately cover my mouth using the two hands and Flow reaction was as a shock as I am. I can see on my peripheral view that EU turns to us and look at me with confusion.

"I...I mean..." I couldn't compose my words and I was also shocked at what just I said. Now the room was filled with awkwardness.

Flow's face turns more red than earlier after she cries and I was so stupid about spilling the tea that I wasn't even sure at. But on Flow's reaction? Now I am sure that she indeed like my friend Eulliyer.

"I will act that I didn't hear anything about that stupid thing, Winter!" Eu stood up."I'll just buy some drinks and food outside, let's talk when I get back!" he said and left me and Flow in silence.

Flow was still shocked at what just happened, now I don't know what to say. That was pure stupidity of me. "I'm sorry!" I said.

"It's okay! I didn't know that you were aware of my feelings for him." she stands and sits on the couch that EU was sitting on earlier.

"I'm really sorry!" I feel so bad that Eu discovered it because of me, I was so guilty right now for Flow.

"Am I so obvious that you figured it out?" She asks me. "Huh?" I responded. She just smiles at me and looks away. Now, what will I do? Can we really work normally after this? This room will always be going to filled with awkwardness now. I hate myself for spilling her secret and I hate EU for how she treats Flow, he was so rude to her while Flow only wants to help.

"If he still doesn't want me to work and help you guys, I will understand. I'm just worried about you and him that's why I wanted to help. You look so stress because of this case and that really worries me." I understand that she only wants is to help me and EU but EU doesn't want to easily trust anyone. I also can understand him because at some point I was afraid of trusting him.

But I will do anything just to make sure everything will fall according to my plans! 

To be continue...
