At the end he looked directly at Myra.
" Look, I told you. He is now looking at you. " Myra whispered to Barbara.
" No He is coming to you.." Barbara said in a shaky voice when Brian got off the stage and begun walking towards them. Myra also noticed that Brian was looking at her directly and she was puzzled.
The other students' gaze followed until Brian reached where Myra and Barbara were.
Brian smiled when he was before them and he got the microphone again.
" Myra, I like you. Will you go to prom with me ? " Brian asked and after he knelt on his knee before Myra and pulled out a rose.
Myra covered her mouth in shock that her eyes turned red.
She first looked at Barbara besides her but she didn't look surprised at all.
" We thought he liked Barbara, How have things turned up ? " A few students asked some loud and others in a murmur.
" It was all a misunderstanding. Barbara and I are just friends and the person I like is Myra. " Brian spoke out to them loud and looked at Myra again who was still zombied.
" Myra...Say yes.." Barbara encouraged and spread a fake smile.
" Barbara, I thought you.." Myra was talking when Barbara cut her off by standing and clapping.
" Myra, Say yes ! " Barbara sung while she clapped and the other students followed her.
" Myra , Say yes ! Myra Say yes ! " The song became the anthem in the whole theater.
Myra thought that this was okay with Barbara so she smiled at Brian and said.
" Yes..." She got the rose from him and after he got up with her and hugged her before everyone.
Barbara put on a big smile but inside she was dying. After the hug Brian took Myra away and Barbara also left the theater. She went to the washroom and cried from the toilet where no one could see her.
" Brian, Why did you do that ? " Myra asked when she was alone with him.
" I said it already. I like you. " Brian answered.
" But we Can't. " Myra argued.
" I know you still love Liam. But I can give you time to get over him. "
" It's not about Liam. Its about Barbara. " Myra astonished him with these words.
" What's with Barbara ? " Brian asked not understanding it.
" Oh my God Brian, Can't you see she likes you ? " Myra asked.
" Be serious. " Brian took it for a shock.
" Brian, Don't act naive. You could tell. " Myra said.
" Fine..I know that but you are the one that I like. Myra,I am so serious. I really like you. '
" But I can't accept you. I can't betray Barbara. She is my best friend. " Myra explained.
" So will you force me to like her ? I don't have feelings for her. " Brian said.
" But I can't hurt her. " Myra complained.
" Fine . You can reject my feelings but please go to Prom with me. " Brian begged.
Myra kept silent.
" If it's hurting Barbara tjaThat you fear, I promise once the party is done I will never bother both you again. " Brian assured her.
" Really ? " Myra asked.
" Yes. I promise. " Brian promised.
" Okay. Let me go and talk to Barbara now. " Myra said and left.
Barbara came out of the toilet after crying and drying her tears very well. She was walking along the compound when her old friends came to her.
" Barbara, We heard that Brian proposed to Myra. Is or true ? " They asked feeling sad for her.
" I am not in the mood to talk about it. " Barbara answered.
" I feel sorry for you. You became Myra's friend to get close to Brian but now you have lost him. What will you do ? " One of them asked.
" I can't separate withher just because of that." Barbara had just said when she heard a voice from behind say.
" You will !.." when she turned around it was Brianna and Samantha.
" Brianna..." Barbara called in panic.
" We have heard everything. You became Myra's friend because you wanted Brian. " Samantha said.
" You were too stupid to think you can win Brian. No onein this school competes with Myra. " Brianna said.
" Now we shall go and let her know your true colors. " the two girls said and left.
" Barbara, Wont you do anything ? " Her friends asked.
" No. Maybe this is the only way to cut ties with Myra. " Barbara said and left.
Brianna and Samantha went to Myra and found her looking for Barbara.
" Are you looking for Barbara ? " They asked.
" Yes. Have you seen her ? " Myra asked.
" Myra, Stop looking for her. Do you know we heard her with own ears saying she only got close to you to get Brian ? " Brianna asked.
" You are lying. " Myra argued.
" Then go and ask her yourself. " They said and Myra rushed to look for her until she found her seated under the tree.
" Tell me the truth. Did you really get close to me to get Brian ? " Myra asked when Barbara turned to look at her.
" Myra, I am sorry. I wanted to tell you myself. " Barbara cried.
Myra chuckled. " I always wondered why a stranger suddenly started talking to me and offered to study with me. I thought you loved kefir who I was. I am so disappointed. " Myra said and walked away.
The two didn't talk again for the remaining days. Myra started hanging out with her friends Brianna and Samantha again and she gave more time to Brian.
When Prom reached, Myra went with Brian and her friends with their boyfriends. She was made the Prom Queen and Frank the Prom king.
It was time for the speech when Myra went to talk and realized that Barbara didn't attend.But on rememberimg that Barbara was just a fake friend she continued talking and ended her speech.
The party came to an end and they were all dancing to the slow music when the door opened and Barbara entered putting on the gown Myra had given her.
All the students turned around to look at her.
