Why don't you confess

◔ ◔ ◔ Aly ◔ ◔ ◔

I searched for her in every corner of the storage area but couldn't find her anywhere.

I was seriously getting worried about her now.

All the fantasy thoughts that had popped into my head a while ago went out of my head.

I crossed my finger before searching the last room in the storage area and hoped to find her here.

But I was disappointed not to find her there too.

And I started to get more and more scared.

"Did something happen to her?" I asked myself. I pinched my palms fiercely before my emotions tensed up.

I rebuked my stupid mind for thinking so badly about Mina.

I stretched my legs to get out of the room but suddenly heard a sound of weeping from a corner and stopped.

I started to move slowly following the source of the sound.

As I approached near the sound, I saw my dear friend was weeping, sitting in the dark in a corner, hiding her face.

I put my hand on my chest and let out a long sigh of relief.

I took the phone out of my side pocket and sent William a message informing him about our location.

"Why don't you tell him everything? Why can't you just confess dude? " I asked in a low frustrated tone.

I tried to suppress my frustration as much as possible. So that I wouldn't make her more upset by yelling at her being blinded by my frustration.

At my sudden sound, she panicked a bit and looked up at me.

Her eyes were swollen from crying for a long time and the dry tear marks were all over her face.

"No, I can't...He thinks that I am a playgirl with no morality. He thinks of me as a girl who can't control herself whenever she sees a boy" She said in a sobbing voice.

"Oh Come on Mina. Don't be childish, Now show some maturity and tell him everything. Just say it" I tried my best to convince her...

"You will never understand how I feel," Mina said.

"I do" I tried to convince her that I could understand her feelings.

"But do I really understand?" I asked my inner self.

" No, you don't understand" She yelled at me.

Her loud voice interrupted my thoughts and dragged me into reality.

"You will understand this feeling, these limits, these compulsions, these pains - only when you fall in love...

Otherwise, you will never understand how I feel, or what a storm is raging in me, Aly "...She said in a soft tone which made my heart ached for her. And I wish I could just run and tell him everything.

"Stop these bullshits...I will immediately open my heart to him whenever I fall in love with someone...I will let that person know about my feelings thousands of times" I said in a voice full of confidence.

She smiled..."No Aly.. you can't"

"Of course. I can..Let the time come and I will prove to you. It's not a fixed rule that boys have to confess first." I said to refute her sentence.

"And if that stupid stupid moron somehow rejects you, then I am already here. "

"So you are planning to convert me into a lesbo?" She said while trying to suppress her giggles.

"Anything for you sweetie. please never do that again" I said this in a worried tone, wiped the tears from her eyes, reached out my hand to her, and hugged her.

She hugged me back.

"When we both are going to live as lesbians, let's go through a trial," Mina said in a teasing tone while pinching waist. I giggled at her nasty jokes.

She is the only one who can tell such strange jokes even in such a serious moment. I playfully hit her shoulder.

"Was that even a joke? that was hilarious" I chuckled and said.

"You guys are having fun and I was getting anxious for no reason".. William said in a happy tone.

We both looked at the owner of this voice and gave a sweet smile.

He smiled back and slowly moved towards us.

"Sorry, Mina. I shouldn't have talked to you like that.. please accept my apology." William said while lowering his head. A bunch of guilt floated in his eyes.

"I will but if you fulfill my two conditions"... Mina said playfully while letting her tongue trailed over her lower lips.

"I have already accepted it...Just say once that you have forgiven me".. William raised his hands and said in a surrendering manner.

we both got astonished by his immediate acceptance. I winked at Mina to signal to her to take this opportunity and say it all.

"Think before you say".. Mina said in a slightly serious tone.

I was a little fooled by her serious tone.

"Did she accept my suggestion? Wow, did she obey me so easily? Will she say now?" I asked myself

"I already have accepted your conditions.. Just say it"... William sounded sincere.

"You have to accompany me for the ball and you have to treat me a dinner"...Mina said pouring cold water in my wild imagination.

I twitched my lips hard.

Although I was a little disappointed with her, yet I was happy with her spirit. At least she took a small step.

At her sudden demand, William became somewhat off guarded.

After much hesitation, he agreed, keeping his eyes on me - which made me a little bit confused. He looked hurt while loads of unknown emotions flashed through his eyes...Maybe he planned to attend the ball with someone else...

My eyes could go wrong. I shook my head and tried to focus on the present.

I was very excited for both of them.

"You guys are behaving like I am not even here"..I said while pouting my face...

Seeing the expression on my face, they burst into laughter.

"Don't do it you look like a pig" William said while pinching on my cheek.

I pretended to be angry and start punching his sturdy forearm. So even though he didn't get hurt, I did get hurt...

Not seeing him in pain, I started to punch him more frantically and kept moving towards him.

Seeing me frustrated, he started to chuckle more and suddenly I tripped - and reached out to grab whatever I found in front of me, to save myself from falling.

Unfortunately, I grabbed William's shirt, and he wasn't ready for it at all, and he fell to the ground with me.

We were both shocked at what happened suddenly. And on top of that Mina came and jumped on us and beamed on top of our head

" it's time for group hug jellos"...

Though we were choking under her weight but both William and I laughed out loudly.

I always want to stay like this... With no worries, no pain - Only with a touch of love.

"It's late ladies..we should return home" His sudden announcement brought me back to reality.

I and Mina both looked at our watch...

"Oh shit, my step-mom will kill me. Congrats to me. I have missed the bus. Shit man " I cursed myself.

After hearing my comments, they both went into another fit of laughter.

William said goodbye to us due to some urgent work and left earlier.

Mina and I walked home, and on the way, I told Mina all about Alex.

"Maybe he's interested in you. He is so hot yaar. Soon whole Princeton school is going to witness the most sexiest couple in the world" She exclaimed excitedly while slightly stroking my shoulder with her.

"No never. He is not my type..." I blushed but spoke quickly to refute her sentence.

She chuckled at my reaction.

But suddenly I stopped as my eyes got stuck into something.
