Camerron's Point of View
"Caaaaaaams! Omg! You're finally here!"
Claire hugged me tightly as soon as I stepped on the school lobby.
"Claire I can't breathe!" I laughed and complained to her about the tightness of her hug. It's not too obvious that she really missed me.
"I'm sorry, I just missed you, where did you go?"
"Vacation?" that's the first thing that I thought as my excuse.
"I think it's too early for your vacation!"
"Whatever! Let's go upstairs."
I pulled her up to our room. She tells me too many stories and because I know that even if I don't listen to her, she still won't stop, so I just forced myself to listen to her stories.
"Also, do you know? Nial always annoyed me just to tell me where you are but of course I didn't say because I don't really know, do I?"
I felt a little guilt for what she said. But maybe it's better that I contact him. Besides, why would he look for me? It looks like he has someone else with him every lunch.
Our class has already started so Claire also stopped talking.
Just when the bell rang, my classmates came out. I just stayed in my seat which I felt a bit refreshing because I used to be with the people who were trying to get out the door.
"Hey what are you doing?" Claire asked me.
"Sitting?" I calmly reply to Claire.
"Hey! I mean why are you still here? Aren't you going to the canteen for lunch?"
"No, I'm not hungry. Just buy me some food and then I'll just eat here."
"Okay, just wait here. I'll be back real quick."
"Okay!"
She left and I was left alone. I suddenly thought of Nial. I wonder what he's doing now, maybe he's in the music room again with that girl.
Soon Claire arrived with food our food.
"What are you doing here?"
I asked in shock when Nial suddenly appeared at the door following Claire. There was no emotion on his face as he looked straight at me.
I looked at Claire but she just shrugged. The three of us didn't speak but it was Claire who broke the silence.
"Ahmm guys ... Maybe I'll just eat downstairs. Cams here's your food."
She handed me my food and hurried out of the classroom, leaving Nial and me alone. I avoided looking at him. I don't know what to say.
"Are you avoiding me?"
I didn't realize that he was in front of me so I suddenly stood up.
"W-why would I avoid you?" I tried to keep my voice calm but the truth was I feel like I'm going to faint with nervousness.
Why is he so close to me again. He’s taking all the air around me.
"You didn't go to school for 1 week, you didn't answer my texts and calls. You didn't give me any clue for your whereabouts then now you didn't go to canteen. Why? Why are you avoiding me and making me so worried?" There was something in his voice.
Sounds like frustration.
I couldn't answer, I just stared at him. His expression was very serious. This is the second time I've seen him like that. The first time is in my dream.
"Is it because of what you saw in the music room?" My eyes widened because of what he said.
Wait, how did he knows that?
"N-Nial ..."
"And don't call me Nial, call me master." He tugged at her hair as if extremely frustrated.
"Claire told me everything, It's just my bandmate, Angelica. Were just friends, believe me. She was depressed that time so I'm there to comfort her. I'm her only friend."
I was suddenly embarrassed because of what he said, so I was wrong? I just bowed my head because I didn’t know what to say to him.
I can't tell him that I didn't totally avoid him because I was in the hospital for one week.
I was just shocked when he hugged me. Here is the feeling again as if my world is stopping while I only feel is him.
"Don't do that again please. I'm so worried about you. I'm not used to not seeing you, not hearing your voice and not seeing your smiles. I'm hurt that you're avoiding me so please, don't do that. That's a wish from your Master. " Her voice was very sad.
He was really sad because of what I did. Omg! My heart beats so fast and I think he felt that because our body is so closed to each other.
"I'm sorry." Only word I could say. I feel like my cheeks are red now. Fortunately, he can't see my face.
We just stayed in that position and we both are silent.
I don't think this moment will end. If only I could always be in his arms.
I can't assure you that I won't leave you master because I know it will end too and when that day comes, I don't know if I can leave you.
MY MASTER'S WISH #7: I won't go away from him.
