This chapter had more of Isabella and Angie.
Chapter 5.
I also had issues like any other girl and never planned my life cause they are always issues, with my job, my mother and mostly my life in the future. To be sincere I always dreamt of a good life, where no suffering no cliche and here I am thinking too much when all around me Is ironic to what am thinking.
Sometimes I usually leave all the work to my mother to take care of it, but growing I realized I need to my priority, I need to give my children what my mother never gave to me, and I had to work extra to earn that.
Realizing my self I saw Isabella looking around in the library as though she was looking for something, I was in the university library, reading a book of Shakespeare's and did not want to be bothered right now, immediately I used the book i was reading in covering my face from her view, bending a little bit so she won't see me.
For the pass two days I have been avoiding to talk to her not just her everybody that crossed my path, I was kinda emotional since on Tuesday.
Speaking of Tuesday, Alex. After his mom left us alone he did not want to speak to me, not about anything especially his schedule's, seriously I did not want to risk my job since it was the first assignment giving to me by Mrs Kourtney ever since I was employed and I couldn't just let him ruin that for me...and I had to tell Mrs Kourtney about it and she was not surprised, but to my greatest surprise she did it herself.
"Angie?" I shifted the book slowly downwards to see who it was and not surprised it was Isabella looking at me, coming to realize I always liked her blonde hair she was more like the catcher of guys In our friendship.
I snapped a little, adjusting my self and dropping the book down completely "Hey, Isa....what are you doing here?" I blinked.
She sat down angrily not answering my question or avoiding the question "I have been looking for you everywhere"
"I was--"
Not letting me finish she barked "Angie I was worried I came to your house but your mom said you wanted to be left alone, you've never wanted to be left alone?!"
"Isa-"
She cut me off again not letting me speak "I don't know but I somehow think you have been avoiding me, or not just me your mom told me the same thing as well."
"Can you let me speak" I finally said.
"No beacuse anything your going to say won't change anything" she said looking worried about me.
"Isa I have just been thinking" I said closing the book, standing up to put it back on the shelve.
Isa stood up following my steps.
"Thinking about what?" She asked looking at my every move.
"I don't know....life I guess" I looked at her this time In the eye to see her blue eyes, it was beautiful.
"So!? I could have helped you out with it too" she said looking more annoyed.
Now I feel guilty, she is right I could have told her about everything, she has always been a good friend and I don't know if I can say the same as me.
"Anyway I would go pack now" she said giving me a small smile which did not show In her eyes.
"Pack?" I asked surprised, where is she packing too. Is she leaving this state?
"No am not leaving the state neither this university" she looks at me with a face that says ' your easy to read.
Oh that was a realief.
But where is she packing to.
"But-" I said and was cut off again
"Am moving to the hostel" she said rolling her eyes.
Isabella's parents where the rich ones and they rented an apartment for her close to the university but why does she want to move to the hostel when she had an apartment all to her self.
"Your moving to the hostel, I did not expect that!" i said realizing my voice was a bit loud, she looked around then back to me and dragged my arm to pull me out of the library.
"Well why you where busy avoiding me I also had plans!" she said with an angry expression. She just looked at me disappointed and walked out.
Now I realize it.
Every time she calls me, text me first, always checking on me and always concern for my well being and my mother's and I never did any of that for her, for one time I was thinking it was because i had nothing to offer but now I think I was selfish, in our whole friendship.
I was selfish.
I quickly ran after her, not wanting the only friend I had to depart from me not like she was leaving the country but I had to save our friendship.
I ran out to the parking lot, her car was not in my view.
She wanted to park, maybe she went to her apartment.
***
I arrived at her apartment, and i had my key so used it to open the door.
She was there, I walked slowly just to make sure I don't fall anything... when she realized I was standing there she just shrugged and continued packing, with guilt I walked up to her for the fisrt time there was no conversation with her around.
How pissed was she.
I picked our picture and handed it to her just to get her attention but she ignores me, her apartment was already scattered that only means she have been packing since without me. But why was she moving.
I decided to break the silence with "Let me help you" I said not wanting to annoy her further, she let me help her without any another word.
We managed to pack all of her stuffs and we are at the universities hostel, it was all I expected it to be, she took her room key from a nice looking lady and we headed to her room. I took the keys from her hand to open the door and she let me not giving me any eye contact.
She is still pissed with me, I won't blame her.
I opened the door surprised just to see a familiar face that am sure i have met before, but where?
Isabella stepped inside and greeted her new roommate.
"Hi am Isabella Jude, your new roommate" Isa said as she drops the luggage from her hand as i did the same.
The room was not big, more like comfortable but not Isa's type, she was used to luxury am still surprised why she agreed to enter the hostel. I looked at her face and am sure she thinks the same but not wanting to show it.
"Hey Jude" the familiar girl snapped winking "or should I call you Isabella"
"Isabella would be okay"I said, avoiding Isabella's glare.
"You can call me Jude" Isabella said with an angry voice.
How angry is she, she hates when they call her by her first name.
"Okay Jude or Isabella, I waited for your arrival, and you are finally here" she screamed like she knew her before, but Isa only smiled."By the way am Mia" she finished.
"Nice to meet you, I am happy your glad to have me" Isabella glance at my directions and starts unpacking.
"And who are you?" The familiar girl said looking straight at me.
"Am Angela Sud, Isabella's best friend" I said looking at Isa and to my surprise there was a tug smile on her lips.
"Alright" she said not surprised then she finally said " Uh-m, now your here I wanted to ask for a big favor" she said more like pleading.
There is something off about her, she just knew her for probably 5minutes and she is already asking for favors.
Isabella turns her head to her direction and smiles "It depends"
"I want you to accompany me to a party we are having tonight"she smirks and turns to me "You can come too".
No way, i have never been to a party before. Moreover I dont want to am sure Isabella would say the same so I said "Thanks but we are okay"
Isabella gaze at me for a while and said "When does it starts?"
What!
"8pm" Mia answered, then looking at me "Am sure your like a nerd but don't worry, it would be fun!" She assumes.
"Whats the catch?" I asked "You said you needed a favor but is more like an invitation"
"So many people would kill to be in that party" she starts and moving round the room "And my friends would be there, so i just taught maybe my roommate and her bestfriend would like to go" she said not holding a breath "it sounds more like am the one doing favor right" she added.
"We are coming" Isabella speaks for me, for the first time she acknowledge's my presence.
"That would be great" Mia said looking more happier than she is meant to be.
***
After some while Mia, Isabella and me manages to exchange numbers and she told both me and Isa where the party would be.
I helped Isa settle down for a while, with all the unpacking and everything since things are still awkward between and she have not yet told me why she move to the hostel i did not want to ask yet till I know we are on good terms back.
"Are you using that lipstick" I asked but she just nod a 'yes'
We arrived at the party, it was really big and full of drunk couples making out, it had a big chandelier in the middle of the party,the place was more like a club but more funished and well decorated. I never knew such place excited in this university and am sure who ever has this place put more effort than usual.
"Hey girls" Mia snapped me out of my thoughts.
Mia has a red hair with a spray of frickles and green eyes, she wore a black jeans with black makeup on with thick green jacket and red vest.
"Hey mia, we where looking for you" Isa said.
"I was around, any ways now am here so come on let me introduce you to my friends" she said more commanding but Isa and me just followed
We walked through people smoking, and drinking I tried to hide my self a little bit so I won't get to exposed and Isa realized and said "You should have changed your oufit" she said looking somewhere else not wanting to show me she cares.
I was putting on a sleeve less top and leggings not wanting to change but Isa on the other hand changed and put on some make up, she wore more exposing gown that is red in color and it was beautiful with her petite blonde hair.
We arrived at a different room, this was like a red room, can't still put my finger to it, if it was the paint that made it red or the light but it was not attractive to me but it was to Isa cause she seemed to love the room
"Hey guys!" Mia said, but not to me or Isa to some people sitting down on a long chair that was curved at one angle, they all cheered at her. Wait!.
I stepped closer to where she was to my surprise I saw Liam at first then James and Alex.
What where they doing here?, I looked at Isa that was by my side but she immediately took a sit closed by to the crew.
Maybe she was tired of standing.
"Who are your guest" A guy with black hair said he looks more muscular but handsome just with a glance.
"Oh" mia said "this is Jude my roommate and Angela her best friend" she looked at me and continued "Angela and Judy this are Luke, Liam, Hunter, James Charlotte and Alex" she finished.
And just with one eye I could see Alex making out with Charlotte. Charlotte I thought her name was Mia...now I understand why mia was so familiar, I mistook her name with Charlotte's and I saw her back then when Alex excorted his girlfriend to the classroom, Mia was there...
She sat down immediately after the introduction and am the last man standing.
"Hi" I said waving stupidily to everyone..
All their gaze was directly to my direction.
This is awkward....
