My Belligerent Lover

☆CHAPTER ELEVEN

•MY RIVAL!

Emma?

You know her?

Yes, she just transferred from Boston.

She is from this college.

Her dad sent her there for studying for a year because of her grandma.

She was not feeling so well, so, she went there to be with her.

Now she is back.

And you know?

She had crush on James long back, I guess she came back for him.

They have been so close for a long time.

I wonder even James like her.

I guess.

I don't know but hearing this from Seth made my heart feel so heavy from inside.

I am so shocked and broken.

My mind just went blank with this.

I left to home.

This day was a disaster too.

The next day.

Is the Program Day.

I really didn't want to take part in it but there is no other choice.

We reached college, everyone is ready with their pairs, and me with Edward.

He is so excited, but not me.

As Mr. Harper is taking students count, I see James with Emma coming together.

Mr. Harper asked them, why didn't you guys attend college yesterday?

Emma said, he was helping her with her shifting of house.

Mr. Harper told since only you both are left, you guys become a pair.

Hearing this I am so angry, made me feel like to kill Mr. Harper.

I folded my fists so tight, like I could really feel pain on my palms with my nails.

We started the programme.

Even though I am helping Edward in planting, but my focus is on James and Emma.

I see them being very happy.

Guess they are happy because they became the pair in this event.

My anger is raging inside of me.

I see her giving water to him.

She started wiping off his sweat with her hanky across his cheeks.

Is she indirectly proposing him?

See how shameless she is.

How can she even do that in front of these many people?

Without having a second thought, I took my hanky out and wiped Edward's sweat from his face.

Doing this I am both seeing James and Edward with a tiny, bitter half- smile.

I started doing the same to Edward as this woman was doing it to James.

I don't know what this feeling is but I'm sure I hate her being this close to him.

What do you call this?

Jealous?

I don't think so?

It's just I hate her that's it.

But I couldn't handle for so long so I left from there immediately.

• GUESS THEY ARE IN LOVE!

I went to our classroom to be alone.

But after few minutes Leah came into the classroom with everyone.

She asked me "what happened?

Where did you go?

I told her I couldn't bear seeing those two being that lovey-dovey.

That's why I left from there.

She asked, then what about your pair Edward?

You left him alone [with a smile].

I replied, I don't care, by putting my head down on the desk.

As I am laying my head on my desk.

I was disturbed by the hard push on my chair.

I angrily turned my head, thinking that was James and started to scream his name.

But for a surprise, that is not James.

It is Edward who is sitting behind me.

I asked him, Edward?

What are doing here?This is James's place.

Then Edward told me that he wanted a place change to my place.

I first hesitated but thinking it is you who is sitting in front of me, I agreed.

Because you are the only one who is free and friendly with me.

I was lost for words that moment.

I am so in emotional misery.

I then turned my head to see them.

Listening to my scream, James and Emma turned their heads to see me.

He then saw my face with a smirk and asked me, do you miss me that much which made you scream like that?

I am both angry and sad.

I was about to put my anger on him but Mr. Harper entered the classroom.

He started talking, but all I could think about is James being so close with her.

I couldn't take it, as soon as the bell rung.

I left the classroom without even calling Leah.

I ran so fast as if I'm chasing some thief.

I reached home.

I can barely breathe.

Unknowingly, tears started rolling down.

I could feel a heavy burden on my chest.

A feeling where I could feel like someone is piercing a sword through my heart.

It is so unbearable.

Never felt that being ignored by someone you love hurts this bad.

It's like I'm becoming invisible to the person to whom I have the feelings.
