"Yes it's his mistake, he always tries to start a fight" I replied Millie pointing at the brown-haired male behind her.
"Really? Doesn't Mark grab his collar first?" Millie said. She was attempting to prove Cyrus innocent.
He had been really on my nerves since... I don't know how long but I was irritated by him.
"That's because Lysander always jumps in between and worsens the situation," my blood boiled in anger.
The rest of the people standing there were watching the drama, and neither anyone tried to meddle in between us.
"If it is so, then Mark shouldn't have replied to him, couldn't he handle the situation any bit?" Millie said as I could feel her making excuses for Cyrus. Meanwhile, James had tears in the corner of his eyes.
"he finely knows that their relationship ain't any good but still he has to meddle, Also why can't HE face the situation? Why do you have to fight for him" That's what I said.
I wasn't proud of anything I just said, Millie's eyes darkened, and as she was about to say or do something Cyrus spoke-
"Stop it, I'm sorry"
My eyes widened, and so as Mark's. Millie looked like didn't believe what she just heard.
Everything was silent, no wind was blowing. The oxygen we took was full of confusion, hatred, possession
I never expected Cyrus to apologize. I have known that He was the type of person who would never apologize for his own mistake.
Why do I feel bad? It was his mistake right,?
Cyrus wasn't looking at anyone, he turned his heels towards the other side and left.
"oh hey, Lysander where are you going?" Ian came from the same direction where Cyrus was leaving to.
Cyrus just ignored it and left the place making everyone worried. Ian held a confused expression and walked towards us.
"Iris, what's up with that guy?" Ian asked me, and I couldn't answer. He left because of me, he left because of my harsh words... And I couldn't control my anger again.
"We got into an argument," I said. I was now feeling worse. I hated that guy for his irritating and immature behavior but right now... I feel bad, I shouldn't have gone so far.
I bit my lips in frustration and my thoughts stuck on Cyrus. "well it's ok, I believe you all will settle everything" Ian said tapping my shoulder.
James and Millie left for finding Cyrus I guess. Mark was still beside me.
"I am sorry Iris, I didn't want you to be in trouble because of me," he said softly as I glanced at him and smiled.
"It wasn't your mistake Mark, it was me who spiced it up" I felt guilty.
My temper was worse from starting, even my parents said I had too much anger inside me. But I would take it as a joke but I realized it when my temper and my anger caused me disasters in middle school.
I beat up the boy who was peeping inside my friend's skirt. I was taken to the principal that day and was scolded a lot. But when I got to the Hayward campus, I thought to change myself.
But nah, the first day I messed up. I talked back to Mrs. Willson and later got scolded. And now it is worse.....
