Chapter 111

"Why don't you rest after graduation, girl? You're stressing yourself out after what happened to you," Jazz said on the video call.

I went straight to my grandmother's house. I sent a message to Zairon that I'd be sleeping there, but I didn't receive a reply.

"Do you think I'm stressed? I'm even eating well, see?" I joked, showing her my food. She just looked at me sadly.

"I'm fine, really. I'm just being overly dramatic," I added.

"Are you afraid he'll leave you?"

I stopped eating. I suddenly lost my appetite and drank some water instead. "No. Why would I be afraid?" I replied emotionlessly.

"You can lie to me but you can't lie to yourself. You're really avoiding him because you're insecure about yourself."
