Hardin hasn't seen Ava in the past few days. They would usually bump into each other around campus all the time. But when he tried calling her, she would always say that she was busy studying.
He really wanted to see her and made up every excuse he could think of, he would hang out outside their dorm, at the library, and he invited her to see a movie that had her favorite actor in it, but she declined that as well.
Just a glimpse of her would brighten up his day, he had been studying earlier, but he had lost interest, he couldn't stop thinking about Ava, he really missed her so much.
To everybody else, Hardin looked like someone who had it together he had everything anybody could want. He was good-looking, smart, and rich, but like everyone else, he had his own battles to fight.
