Chapter 33:

It's here

Dreams of Reality


      I really wasn't looking forward to school today. All this stuff happening got me a bit worried. My inner voice was telling me that my school time will be slightly more uncomfortable than usual. That's why I crawled to school and was late because of it.

       I was somewhat surprised when I couldn't find Alan in class when the first lesson started. Lots of scenarios started to pop up in my head about why he didn't come today. It could be because he is mad at Shara, so he doesn't want to see her. Or he is sad because of what happened. I don't know which one is worse. Maybe he got sick or had to go somewhere.

       I am scared a bit. I keep thinking about how everything will fall apart  if they don't make up, and the fact that he decided to run away from the problem doesn't help either. He probably stayed home because of it. I would do the same if I was him to be honest, but I'm sure he knows he can't go on like this forever. Maybe he wants it to fizzle out and then act like nothing happened. It would be the best scenario.


       It took me a while to get a chance to talk to Shara. A few hours. It's chaotic today for some reason. Lots of changes in the schedule. When I finally got to talk to her, she seemed... off.
It must have had a bigger impact on her than I anticipated. I tried to get something out of her.
I wanted to help her if she needs anything, but she ran off.

       She was more distant than usual. After our little conversation had ended, all I could tell myself was that I can't help her. At least now. If she even wants my help. I thought that we were friends. Maybe she just needs some time, who knows what's on her plate now?
I shouldn't put myself into this mess and stop overthinking it. Man, this doesn't look good.
