No Words. Other Than I'm Sorry

Chapter Eight - Oh

Now I Might Have To Assure To That They Never Did Speak Of This Again.

They Acted As If It Never Happened.

Which Might Have Been The Worst Thing That They Could Have Done.
Because Within This Mask Of 'Nothingness'
They Felt The Worst Kind Of Heartbreak Possible.

But Then No One Had Forced Them To Hide How They Feel.
Which Is Another Reason For This To Be So Tragic.
Society I Suspect.

In The Mean Time, Roger had Been Given A Distraction.
One That, He Wasn't So Sure About Himself, Yet Needed.
And Enjoyed.

"So How Are You?" Roger Asked Evie As They Stood Outside The Drama Studio.

"I'm Good Thank You. You?"

He Was About To Talk, When A Girl, Just A Few Inches Shorter Than Evie Walked Past And Kissed Roger On The Cheek.

"Hi Roger!" She Said As She Smiled At Him.
"Hi. Evie This Is Maébh."
"Hi Maébh." Evie Put Out Her Hand And She Shook It.
"Hi Evie!"

She Was Pretty.
Had A Gorgeous Smile And Beautiful Eyes.

But Evie Felt As If She Could Cry.
Yet She Was Happy For Him.
But The Kiss?

"Are You Rogers Girlfriend?"
"Yeah! How Do You Know Each Other?"
"Friends. Just Friends... Look, I'm Going To Leave."

She Began To Walk Away But Came Back To Say Something.

"And Don't Worry About Me, I'll Sit Somewhere Else At Lunch."
"You Don't Have To Yo-" Roger Spoke.
"No. No It's Ok."

She Smiled And Walked Away.

With Tears In Her Eyes, Gulping The Pain And Regret Down, She Walked To The Bathroom, Sat Down And Burried Her Head Into Her Hands.

There Were Other People Behind The Walls So She Tried Her Best Not To Be To Noisy.

She Wished She Had Just Told Him.
The Kiss Must Have Meant Something If He Didn't Let Go.
Surley?

When She Felt Ready To Leave, She Did, Wiping Her Eyes With Tissue And Gaining Looks From The Other Girls.

"Are You Ok?" A Girl Asked.
"I'm Fine Just Leave Me Alone."

She Left And Returned To Her Classroom, Slouching In Her Chair Trying Not To Cry Again.

Shame Isn't It?
She Didn't Hate Maébh.
Not At All.
She Seemed Sweet And Loyal.

But She Wanted Roger.
