"I began to like Mariam after. But in truth, I was enjoying every chance to see you. I liked Mariam and everything, but there was something about you. I didn't know what it was, but I guess I just enjoyed seeing you, and your pretty eyes."

Anthony explained.
"Me and Mariam arranged meetings. And since her parents were always busy, it was quite easy for her to get away with it. But for me, it was harder than you'd think. The nun in the orphanage was obnoxious, and you have to give her a valid reason to go out."

He sighed, rubbing his temple with his palm. He glanced up at me, then began to speak again.

"We managed, however. But, at some point, after one year and six months of dating, I got sick of it. Mariam began to notice my glances and feelings towards you. She also knew that you were oblivious about it, so she wasn't completely mad at you. But..I broke up with her, and she was quite angry at you. Then.."

He stopped, as if he was scared to say what happened after. I glanced at him in annoyance, waiting.
"Then what ?"
"She..died two weeks later."

My mouth dropped open.
"But what you don't know is..Mariam really did die in the school. It wasn't just a hence. All I know is, she's angry. She's really mad at you."

I shook my head in shock.
"You don't believe me? Then why is she doing all of that to you? What happened to your brother..this incident. Mariam did it. She hates you."

"Y-You're lying."
I stammered out.
"Oh yeah ? Why don't you go ask her then? You have to apologize to her, otherwise she'll keep hurting your family."

I glanced at him coldly, then stood up.

"Adelle, where are you going ?"
Hayden asked quickly, followed by the rest of the cast.
"Going to apologize."

I spoke coldly, then walked out of the location.

But was awoken by a thud as I hit someone.
"Adelle, where are you going ? I wanted to explain-"
I glared at him.
"No, I don't want to hear it. Stay away, and don't call me."

I ordered, hitting his shoulder as I walked past him.
"Adelle.."

He stared, heartbroken as his girlfriend walked away. A small tear streamed down his soft cheek. He heard someone running to his side.

"Where is she, Barron ?"
Rajwan exclaimed, noticing that his sister left.
"I-I don't know. Where did she say she's going, Rajwan, why is she so upset ?"
Rajwan didn't answer him, but kept running his hand through his soft, black hair.

"Come on, I'll try to call her."
He spoke, inviting him inside. Barron agreed, then ran inside.
Rajwan noticed Nabil's confused, nervous face. They both sat next to him and Allison, trying to think of something to do.
