Gili and Juno was still standing in the backside of the school.

"Um, shall we go now?" Juno asked

"I'm not sure"

"What the fuck? I've classes to attend!"

"I'm sure you'll be fine, it's not like the teachers care" he smiled and sat down on the ground, she sat with him too. It was silent for sometime until Juno asked,

"Say, how did you become famous?"

"Oh, it's not much, I always has this tendency to be known, plus it's fun to collect memories and show it to the world"

"You mean making meaningless cringe videos? Fair enough"

"Pff- yeah, that's what it is but I guess it was just something for a distraction"

"Distraction ?"

"You see, you must have gone through the same past, the ones when you were forced to do the best. You will feel there are eyes looking all over you, waiting for you to make a mistake so that they can drag you down, I literally felt that.

My life would have been gone through same, that seriousness and studious but then I met her..."

"Who?"

He looked here and then and then whispered, "Promise you'll never tell anyone?"

"Of course!! I promise!" She said with a face that says 'we-will-see-about-that'

"Oh..kay?
That time I wasn't this much famous but I was known by some people. She was from a different district, she moved in our neighbour for few months as she had some problems going in her family.

When I first approached her, she was sweet like any other normal girl but" he paused and then smiled, "after getting to know her, she was one heck of a girl I've ever met. She is the type who will openly insult you if you piss her off and her sarcasm level was beyond my IQ, nevertheless, I enjoyed her company.

She was fun to be around and she always knew how to keep a conversation going. I guess I liked her more because we always talked about me, she seeks for the answers regarding  feelings and it felt good to be with someone to helps you to find about your true self"

"Then?"

"Then I realised she knows so much about me but I don't know anything about her, like nothing. I wanted to get to know her more, it was selfish of me to always enjoy conversations about me and she never ever got bored hearing me out. She always had this mysterious part I never got to know. We had a good relation, until I realised that I started liking her.

I accept that fact easily, anyone in my place will like some like her. She is sweet and caring and blunt and smart. But I could never bring myself to tell her, I was a coward and maybe that's one my regrets"

"You won't get anything until you say about it. It's either a 'yes' or 'no', atleast you'll get an answer. Talk about the shameless author, who proposes to me in one way or the other and at this point, I'm hella creeped out, tired of rejecting, but does that stop her?" Juno said

Gili nervously smiled, "I really don't want to talk about that brat—" he sighed, as they both shook their head.

"But say, what happened next?"

"Days passed, things started to change, she has going through something but I didn't know about that. She wouldn't be in home for days, won't reply to text but after some days she will pretend like nothing happened and will be back in her usual self.

I tried asking her but she never told me. I started to get afraid, you won't understand what she meant to me. I was terrified that 'what if she does something to herself?', 'what if she never comes back?', I didn't want to lose her. I was worried, so worried that I can't explain, even not seeing her face one day made me anxious, like 'if she fine?' I questioned myself everyday but could even ask her, I don't want her to get angry at me" he rubbed his eyes, blocking the tears to come,

"A-and one day...she was gone, and she never came back again. I lost contact of her and a part of me knew that she isn't gonna return again"

"What about her family?"

"They avoided us and then they left too. I tried to get as much information as I could but it was of no use. I couldn't even know the reason"

"I'm sure she will come back again..." Juno muttered

"Thanks but she won't, trust me, I know it better and it's fine, it hurt at first, so much that I can't explain. It hurt as much as I thought her farewell will hurt me but now if she comes back, I don't think I'm ready for regaining the feelings and the pain again.

I'm atleast moving on, or trying to be. I socialize as much as I can, it keeps me busy and I also work part-time jobs for that" Gili said, he rubbed his eyes with the tie of his uniform as Juno looked at him.

"I see, shit happens..."

"I wish she was still here, oh, I bet you would become great friends with her! She is a fan of bitches!" He chuckled

"(ʘᴗʘ💢) What the fuck did you say?" Juno clenched his arm and twisted it

"AGHH— I said you are an a-angel!!!" He growled in pain as she left him

"Better!" She asked and looked at her watch, "it's already break time, I need to go"

"Sure, keep in touch, don't miss me!" He shouted as she kicked his leg and went back to her class.
