HEY YOU...I LOVE YOU! Chapter 4

*FLASHBACK STARTS*

5 years ago...

'That day'...

Grace

Yay finally our classes are over! 😻

Mia

Yes 🥱 Won't you miss it Grace??

Mia was Grace's best girl pal in college.

Grace

Ye-

Mia

Guess you won't because you have your gang!🤭 They drops by once in a while to meet you even after they graduated...*in awe*

Grace

Yeah..☺️

Mia

Thanks to you I'm welcomed too...🥺 You know I have a crush on Adam!☺️

Grace

Of course I know! How many times have I caught you drooling while staring at him?🤣

Mia

*blushes* I don't drool alright!?🙈

They were chatting and walking through the corridor to the college cafeteria.

Grace

Btw..why do you wanna go to the cafe right now? We could've eaten something nice from outside.

Mia

Uh..it's our last day and let it be the last cup of coffee from the college cafe. Let's make some fine memories!🤩

Grace

Ahhh haha..fair enough!😄

As they were passing by an empty classroom, they heard some familiar voices

~from a distance~

Nick

*laughs*

*indistinct conversations*

Grace

Isn't that Nick? Let's go say hi!😃

Mia

Shhh..let's eavesdrop first!😉

Grace

Haha can't say no to that!😈

Mia suddenly pulled her next to the door so that they won't be seen!

Grace

*collides with Mia* aufff!😵

Mia

Ouch!

Mia

*coughs loudly*

Grace

*whispers* hey..they'll hear us!

Mia

*whispers* How can I not? Are you made of steel or something?

Grace

*whispers* so-rryyy...

The booming voices coming from inside made it certain that they didn't hear Grace and Mia

~inside~

Nick

I see...

So you know...it's easy for you to talk her into this.. Afterall, Grace is your friend

Nick

Okay

~outside~

Grace

(What are they talking about?)

Grace

Mia and Grace looked at each other in confusion

~inside~

Wow dude! seriously?

Nick

Why so surprised? You only said you want to sleep with her, that right?

~outside~

Grace felt her stomach churning, her legs weak... Mia's eyes widened and held her steady.

Grace

*trembles* *whispers as soft as her breaths* Wh-what...

Mia

*pulls Grace's hand*

Mia

*softly* Let's get outta here!

Sometimes later...

At a local bar

Mia

Why would Nick agree to something disgusting like that?

Grace

*stern* No..we heard it wrong. That's not Nick.

Mia

But-

Grace

Mia!

Grace

He's my best friend! He will never do that to me!

Mia

Okay..fine then.

Grace

They both drank in silence for few minutes

Grace

I'm sorry I took it out on you...

Mia

I don't care. You are my best friend, I'm just...

Mia

...worried for you.

Grace

I know...you always stood up for me. I don't know where this went wrong...

Mia

What do you mean?

Grace

I am not stupid. I know it was Nick...

Grace

But I cannot believe that he- *voice cracks*

Mia

Oh Grace..🥺

She got up and comforted her, tears rolled down Grace's cheeks...

Mia

So...what are you gonna do about it?

Grace

I don't know...you tell me... should I confront him about it?

Mia

No!

Grace

uh..why..? I thought you'd tell me to walk up to him and give him a tight slap *chuckles through her tears*

Mia

Uhm..yeah but he's not your boyfriend or anything..

Mia

Besides, I fear going through it again would hurt you more...?

Grace

Ah..*wipes her tears* You are so thoughtful..

Grace

Thank you...😊 I'm so lucky to have you as my friend...

*FLASHBACK ENDS*
