💞 HIDDEN PAIN 💞 ( Can I be your friend?) Chapter 58 Jayson's pov; Myra is my best friend but at this moment, I dunno if I should tell her this or not; not that I didn't trust her, but I was just scared. I made a promise to myself; and also I don't want Skyler to get angry with me when she finds out " You okay?" she asked me " Ermm...yeah...sure I am" I said nervously " You were gonna say something" she said " Yeah...about that...I...I just" " Myra! The order" Jackson yelled at her interrupting " Oh!! So sorry about that...I forgot" she said as she hurried to get the order I heaved and held my chest... that was close I didn't know where to start lying from I wasn't used to this - lying It's weird and absurd I reminisced over what Myra had said about Skyler having a concert in California I brought out my phone and went to the internet and the news was all over So indeed, it was true I checked the date for the concert and it was the following week's Thursday Which means she has just few days left to come to school I wasn't even sure if she'll come to school because she will be so busy preparing for the concert What should I do now? She promised she'll meet up with me?? Should I just trust her?? I thought deeply as I suddenly felt sick MONDAY MORNING The weekend has been usual and normal. Nothing exciting or new I was dressed for school and didn't bother having breakfast because I was so eager to go to school Myra came out of her house on my way there and we left together * * " Look who we have here" Bryan said when we entered the classroom " Morning guys" Myra greeted " Morning angel" Ben said and laughed " Morning princess" Stacy also replied " How was your night?"Pecthra asked smiling " It was splendid" Myra replied and the two laughed " What? Why do you have that look on your face?" Aaron asked me " Nothing; just surprised you guys came before us today" I said " Yeah...we decided to change and make a difference today" Ben answered " That's really good" Myra said " You can say that again" Bryan said " Well; keep it up guys" I said giving them a thumbs up " We will" they said and we all laughed. We were still laughing when the bell rang out " Oops" Stacy said as she stood up to go to her seat. The rest of them also did same before the teacher walked in * * " That class was so...boring" Bryan said dejectedly. It was the last class before recess "Come on buddy; you really have to stop hating every class" Ben criticize " Who cares" Bryan said with an eye roll " I dunno what you guys are saying, but am so hungry" Stacy whined " I somehow wish Mrs Thompson had taught throughout" Pecthra said " Seriously guys" Myra chided " This isn't the time to talk about workbook; this is the time to feed our stomachs. I'm famished" Myra said " Alright..let's go" Aaron said and then all stood up They walked a distance and turned.Myra was the first to turn to me with a confused expression on her face " Why arent you coming?" she asked. The others turned also looking at me weirdly " Uhmm...I have something to attend to, but don't worry I'll catch up with you guys" I told them " You sure" Aaron asked me " Absolutely" I assured them "Okay then....I'll grab you a bite just in case you didn't show up" Aaron said and i smiled. They turned and started walking out. Myra didn't want to leave but Stacy pulled her forward and she had no choice Phew!! Time to go I just pray she's there.I don't even know if she's in school but somehow I prays she'll be there I thought as I hurried my footsteps I got near and I could hear a beautiful melody coming from towards the tree I got to the tree and stood, then looked at the bench and she was there She was playing her guitar, as she sang along with it It was a slow and steady song with few lyrics. The strings played on the guitar, were more than the lyrics " I've told you before I don't like it when am stalked" she said ending the song I chuckled coming out from behind the tree She had a straight face on " I didn't want to disturb you" I said " Or you didn't want to miss another opportunity of seeing me sing" she corrected " ymyeah...you got that right; plus, I was surprised. Thought no one was allowed to see you sing" I asked she sighed then placed her guitar on the chair " Well, you have before so I didn't see it as a big deal" she answered " What did you want to tell me?" she asked instantly taking me aback " I love your voice" I said instead ignoring her question " Thanks" she said but still didn't smile " Now speak" she said more like she commanded I was so glad she had come. It was more than enough for me " It's about..." I was about to tell her when her phone interrupted It was ringing. She picked it up and got up then walked a few distance away. I could hear all what she was discussing with the person because the phone was on Loud speaker I wondered if she forgot to turn it off or she didn't know She returned and she had a worried look on her face - worry mixed with anger and sadness Looks like the person was stressing her out.I couldn't really make anything out of what I had heard " Is anything the matter?" I asked when she walked back. She retreated and turned to me " Just because I want to listen to whatever you have to sing and because you have heard me sing, doesn't give you the damn right to start asking me questions about myself- got that?" she said irritatedably I shook my head like a leaf that was about to fall off it's branch.I became agitated and took rooted to the spot " Go on with what you were saying" she commanded I swallowed hard and blinked rapidly. Her eyes didn't leave mine as she stared blankly at me Did she ever get to express her emotions? I asked my subconscious " The scholarship m..no; no..I mean..." I stuttered Oh, Lord!!! What was I even saying? She stared at me in confusion and I was scared she would get angry " I wrote a song for you" I blunted out without thinking twice She blinked twice staring at me " Is that so??" she asked me. I nodded rapidly " Are you sure that's what you wanted to tell me?" she asked me again " Yes...am sure" I replied her " Okay then; let me hear it" she said crossing her legs " Sorry, what??" I asked her stupidly " The song; the one you wrote for me...sing it " she ordered....I gulped hard as I started sweating What have I gotten myself into? What's wrong with me? Why did I have to tell her that? I could have just thought of something else instead of this, now I'm stock What do I do? I looked up at the sky then from side to side " Are you going to sing or you're going to keep me waiting all day" she snapped " I'm...I'm going to sing" I replied " Then hurry up and get it over with...I don't have all the time in the world" she said coldly I coordinated myself as a song came to mind to sing It is an old song I used to love singing I closed my eyes and opened them again before I started singing I sang for a while allowing my emotions to show in the song and making sure my vocals and tone were accurate and intact I finished singing and lefted up my head to look at her. She looked away when I did that, and so I couldn't read her expression or saw her countenance I couldn't tell if she was happy, is she liked it or not " Do...do you like it?" I asked her She took a while before she turned to look at me " Did you really write that up?" she asked me " Yeah...I could write more for you if you want" I told her beaming happily I guess she likes it after all Whooohooo!!! She didn't respond to what I had said " So...what do you think?" I asked her " Do whatever you want ; I don't care" came her response I felt hurt.. why is she this cold? The least she could have done is to tell me she likes it or not She stood up and picked her things in the chair including the guitar " I dunno; but I gotta go" she said " Alright then" i told her and watched as she started walking out " By the way; the song was amazing" she said before she finally walked out Oh, heavens!! Did she really No; I gat to be dreaming! She didn't just...did she?? Did she really just make a compliment, I asked myself "Yesss!!" I yelled out in excitement as I ran out going to meet the rest of them I was so happy and full of smiles
