A week passed without seeing each other, talking to each other or even having a single glimpse of each other; though I sometimes see him I usually I turn around or put my head down because I don't want to see him or him seeing me.
~
I'm making myself to move on, it's working in the most frustrating way I know, and that is to do everything to avoid him.
~
Monday came, we were excused and pulled out of the class.
At the theater room, every representative from the last week's event was there, Mire, Rom, Lani, McCoy, Haelly and of course, the fake boyfriend, Shawn Mendes.
