"Hey... Can I have your phone, I need to call my friend". He said with a trembling voice.
she took a deep look at him. "Should I? she asked herself. "Hello miss..???
"Okay.." she gave it without thinking much about it and went back to looking at her timetable.
"he have it" she heard someone saying it. she looked up to that guy, standing there with her mobile and staring at her.
"Asher...run..,," she heard.
"Thankyou for giving it.." He gave it back
she took it back without saying anything. "WTH is he doing, why did he gave it back to her..." his friends were furious. "lets do something else ,It's not fun anymore". He said and left.
"what just happened". she asked herself.
"Am I late" Amy was here. "What do you think.. I ordered the coffee for you go and take it" she answered while drinking her juice.
"should we go and take a look at the campus?" Amy asked her "hmm.. let's go". She agreed.

"I stood there on that hill, exactly on the spot where I realized that I love her. More than anything, anyone in this world." He took a pause. "On that hill, on that place, when she held the hand of him, that's when I realized it was her, the one who blowed my world with only her eyes"... He took a pause again. "It was her, the one I fell in love with. Her eyes were filled with those sparkles that shooked me when I first saw her....the only thing that was changed in the scene was the person in front of her". There was a moment of silence. "Those sparkles weren't for me, the hand she held wasn't mine. I was late, I regretted being late for the first time". He ended reading the message.
"Eli..??? Say something.." Didi almost freaked out. It wasn't the first time it happened that he became silent during the show but everytime he did, was scary for Didi.
"It's fine to be late.." He said after being silent for a couple of seconds. "It's fine to let go of your loved one". It sounded like he was having difficulty to speak. "Today, Tomorrow, the day after tomorrow, or even after a long time, everyone is meant to leave, they have to go. you can't tie people with you. And it takes a strong person to let go of your loved one. If that person is happy, then that was all we needed". He said it with a heavy voice.
"The song you requested to play for your loved one, I dedicated it to all the people on this world who were late. I hope you enjoy this one and think of your loved ones on this beautiful night, this is Eli, thank you for listening ". He sounded broken into million pieces.
(song:Jealous by labrinth)
"I'm jealous of the rain
That falls upon your skin
It's closer than my hands have been
I'm jealous of the rain
I'm jealous of the wind
That ripples through your clothes
It's closer than your shadow
Oh, I'm jealous of the wind, cause
I wished you the best of
All this world could give
And I told you when you left me
There's nothing to forgive
But I always thought you'd come back, tell me all you found was
Heartbreak and misery
It's hard for me to say, I'm jealous of the way
You're happy without me.. "
The song ended and so was the show. He was still sitting there with his eyes closed trying to gather the courage to stand up. He tried to understand why was there an emptiness in his chest." What's missing. " He asked himself.
" It was a good song isn't it" Didi tried to break that blankness. He came back from his space. "Hmm.. it was." "should we have dinner together?" she asked.
"Sure" He agreed and in seconds her face was lightened.

She turned off the laptop and lied down on the bed. "Why does his voice felt shaken and a bit sad?" she asked herself knowing that she won't know the answer. And went to the dreamland trying to find it.
She woke up with a sound of scream.
"What happened what was that sound..." she was confused and half sleepy.
"Amy.. What's wrong.. What happened" she was worried for her.
"Belllaaaaa..." Amy hugged her with excitement. "Do you believe in fate.,I can't believe it happened" she seemed happy.
"Okay but at least tell me what happened".
"He's here..." she said it with sparkles in her eyes.
"Who...??" she was about ask Amy.
"You remember I told you about the guy I loved back then in school, the one who left the school because his family went to some other city.... He's here, in our campus" she was really excited.
"Ahhh.... You literally scared the hell out of me when you screamed like that." Bella was about to nag her. "What should I weae today, what if we met in campus" she excitedly asked Bella and then went to her wardrobe. "Oh God what should I do with her" Bella asked herself and went to ger ready for class.
