[Abi's POV]
It got really dark. I should leave here. I stand up and took my steps towards the gate. My phone got a buzz. It 's a message from Samantha. She wrote:
"Abi did you reached home safely. You were not having a car too. Do reply to me".
" Yes, I am at home and getting ready to sleep", I answered back. Basically, I lied about it.
I reached near the gate there are no vehicles. I think it's been very late. I have to walk through the subway. I began walking and there was a car coming close to me. I did not dare to ask for a lift but I started walking faster. The car stopped near me but I did not stop.
"Abi, Abi"
The voice called out my name. I stop and turned around. It was Ethan. He was standing out of his car.
"Come I will drop you", He walked to me and showed his concern.
" No, it's okay, I will manage", I responded.
"Come on, It's been late. You will not find any vehicles. Let me drop you... as a friend", He insisted.
" Okay", I said and opened the door of the car to sit.
He was driving silently and after a few minutes, he broke his silence.
"Abi are you okay? I mean what Nate did at the party was bad", He said in driving and looking at me.
" It's okay, I am fine", I replied looking outside the window.
"Abi, don't take me wrong but I think...", He took a pause. "You should break up with Nate", He said after few seconds focusing on the road.
I looked at him.
" If I am not mistaken you are his best friend", I inquired him.
"I am... but being a best friend doesn't mean to support him in his wrongdoings", He explained. " And though I look like a jerk, in reality, I am not", He further added to make himself clear.
"Okay, I will think about", I gave an answer.
After this conversation, we talked hardly for a more minute over the topic of Nate or of himself. Later we reached home. I opened the door and stepped out of the car.
" Thank you Ethan", I said to him in gratitude.
"My pleasure. Be careful", He said to me and drove away.
After my mom warned me again I went ahead to the bedroom. I took a shower and blow-dried my hair. I laid down on the bed thinking how to strike out Nate. What should I say to him?
" It's all over", My subconsciousness suggested to me.
That's right. I think we won't be able to be on the same page. Actually, I thought he would be a good and well-mannered guy instead of being a nasty male whore. Indeed, I made a mistake but need to rectify it. Don't know who will be the dude matchable to me according to my benchmarks.
"There is one guy, but you don't like him and will not consider him", My subconsciousness mumble.
" Your taste is worst in men. Now sleep and let me also sleep", I scolded her.
"Abi, but-----"
"Shut the fuck up", I interrupted her and nodded off.
Where am I? Hello, is anybody there. Why it is so dark? There should be a power button. Nate? What he is doing here? Rich and her asshole. I passed through them. There is a bright light. The beautiful place and greenery surrounded me. There is a pink cherry tree similar to the garden. There is a guy standing facing to the pink cherry tree. I took a step towards him. He is well muscular. I can't see his face.
" Excuse me", I asked him and reach out my hand to tap him.
But I heard the voice of my mom.
"Abi, wake up it's already being late", She shook me to get awake.
I opened my eyes, "Yeah, I am awake".
She left the room and I sat up. So it was a dream. Who was the guy? He might look sexy. Argh! If mom would have not woken up me I am sure I would have seen his face. The phone rang. It was Blaire.
" Abi, how much it will take for you to get down", She calmly said.
"I woke up just now", I yawned.
" So should we leave?", She asked for approval.
"Yeah, sure. I will see you in the second lecture", I consented.
" Okay bye", She said and hung up.
I must get ready quickly. After a half and an hour, I got ready. Yes, Now I look perfect. I stepped out of the house and got into the car. I played music:
You know you love me, I know you care
Just shout whenever and I'll be there
You are my love, you are my heart
And we will never, ever, ever be apart.
And I was like baby, baby, baby oh
Like baby, baby, baby no
Like baby, baby, baby oh
I was singing along with Justin Bieber, nodding my heads and waving my hands. But make sure to drive safely. I halt at Starbucks and grabbed an Espresso and resume my driving. On a way I received a call from Gianna:
"Where are you?" She questioned.
"I am on the way will reach in five minutes", I answered while taking a right turn.
" Okay meet us in the cafeteria, as the first lecture got canceled and the second lecture will be conducted late", She informed me of the schedule.
"Okay thanks, I have reached the destination", I said and parked the car.
" Okay then see ya", She hung up.
I got out from the car holding a coffee in my hand walking towards the cafeteria. I was at the entrance and I got bumped to someone and my coffee got spilled on the other person. I was focused on my coffee.
"Rest In Peace", My subconsciousness offered a pray.
Oh shit!
I lifted my head and there was a girl who has blonde hair, wearing a taupe color ribbed sweater pant and long sleeves cropped zip-up top, standing in front of me with mouth open and looking at her dress in stunned. Which seems to be valuable. The outfit was making her look slut. No, I am not getting judgemental here but everybody in this university has a story to startle me. Anyways, Her whole outfit was soaked with my coffee. I don't even know how the whole carton of coffee got landed on her outfit.
The whole cafeteria was silent and staring at us and everybody was anticipating an upcoming drama. They took out their cellphone and began creating a video. These people seriously needed to get a life.
She snarled at me, " You fucking bitch". She cried and her shrill voice resonated in the walls of the cafeteria.
In the way, I was thankful that it was her and not Richa who fate decided had to have a bath in my coffee.
Before she could lunge at me, two hands grabbed her by the waist and pulled her away from me.
