INBETWEEN

8.

Our lives are pretty weird and that day I realised that all weirdness has its reason

I was standing in front of the mirror in the living room fixing my hair as I got ready for school

Yesterday after Leon kissed Fran, everything was normal...then at some point Fran just disappeared and couldn't be found. When we came back home, we came to know that she was in her room, door closed and lights off, so none of us not even leon bothered.

But that, that wasn't the only not normal thing, what was not normal was that Fran wasn't up, you see the reason why that was not normal was because fran got up before all of us, after her I got up and then she would wake Leon up or he'd get up himself and at the end the one to get ready first would drag Fede out of bed..

But today I was up, Leon was up eating in the kitchen as he was all ready, heck even Fede was up but Fran's room door was still closed..I don't know whether she's sleeping or just doesn't wanna face anything.

"Hey is fran up yet?" The voice belonging to Leon made me come out of my thoughts...I ignored him as I continued brushing my hair

You see something else also happened yesterday, after the whole Leon, Fran scene Diego made me realise something...If Leon had his happiness with Fran now...and he felt happy in pretending I didn't exist...why don't I too start ignoring him

Oh boy....how I wish he hadn't made me realise that

"Are you deaf or something?" I heard Leon ask as I felt his foot steps coming closer to where I was standing

I looked around, trying to find Fede who was still getting ready in his room

"Hello?" Leon said again as I just ignored him, ok now I know why he feels happy when he ignores me...seeing him annoyed at me is really great

"Hey I'm talking to you" he said as he hit my shoulder with his hand...yes it was slow, yes it didn't hurt...I barely felt it..It was like him brushing his hand against my shoulder but the important thing was that he did it...and he shouldn't have

"What are you blind or something? I  can't see her here, you can't see her here....how am I supposed to know whether she's up or not, last time I checked I wasn't a psychic" I shouted at him not even once fearing what I was saying...ok maybe ignoring him was a better option

I didn't dare to look at Leon's face, knowing that I or no one has ever snapped at him like that before....I was shocked at what and how I did that and I'm sure he's bursting with anger at the moment... any minute and I'm gonna get it

"Fran! Finally come on let's go" I heard Leon say as I looked up to him looking at the director of fran's room from where she had come out

Yeah their live saved my life that day

"Yeah....I....uh.." Fran was lost at words....Fran? My best friend Fran....wow this is something

"Come on dude we're gonna be late" Leon said...I serously think he's blind, he couldn't even see that fran wasn't comfortable, and worst of all he was acting like nothing happened last night, he was by now standing next to the door

"Y..you .g..go, I'll...catch you..l..later" Fran barely made the words come out of her mouth as leon just nodded...seriously something is wrong with this guy

"Yo Fede? You coming with me?" Leon shouted from across the room, was he raised in a jungle or something? He clearly knew that fede was at the end of the apartment.
