"Why are you ignoring me??" Marcel asked annoyed.
"Huh?? Me?? No" Keanu replied looking back at the TV.
Marcel's irritation grew as he felt dismissed by Keanu's casual response. He moved closer to Keanu, trying to get his attention. "Seriously, Keanu, we were supposed to spend the evening together. Why are you so engrossed in the TV?"
Keanu finally tore his eyes away from the screen, realizing that Marcel was genuinely upset. "I'm sorry," he said, a touch of guilt in his voice. "I didn't mean to ignore you. I guess I just got caught up in this show, and I didn't realize it was bothering you."
"No! It's not just about today! You have been doing this from the day!" Marcel recalled all the times Keanu kept ignoring him in the past few days. He even did not say anything the day he had barged into his room on his own. "Forget it! I am leaving!" Marcel walked out of the lounge and went to the study room.
