The exchange (camren) English Version

Chapter 37

Camila's POV

"And what if nobody wants to talk to me?"
I asked, nervous

"Oh my God, Camila, people will talk to you. Take it easy." Taylor said

"I can't." I said and got up, walking around the room

"I studied with the same people since my first year, I don't know how to make friends..." I said

"You don't know how to make friends?
You come to an unknown country, alone,
to the home of complete strangers and tell me you don't know how to make friends?" she said and continued

"Bullshit Camila" she said an laughed a little

-

I bit my lower lip, it already hurted so many times that it did. I got ready to sleep, but I ended up with insomnia, all because of the damn nerves..

I went downstairs to drink a glass of milk, hoping I can sleep faster but I got scared when I tripped on Lauren on my way to the kitchen

"Ehh" she said, spilling the water she was carrying, on her shirt "sorry, I didn't see you." I said

"It's all good." she said and continued walking in front of me, preventing me from coming in to the kitchen completely.

"Excuse me?" I said

She looked at me for a few seconds, then stepped aside, letting me pass.

I took a glass and milk, and drink a bit.

"Insomnia?" she asked

I just nodded, and she sighed.

"How long are you going pretending that I don't exist?" I heard her saying approaching me.

"I'm not pretending you do not exist." I said

"But you're ignoring me..." she stopped, closer than she should in fact.

"Is it because of that ridiculous argument?" she said and I let the glass fall from my hands, dropping it in the sink

"Oh, besides everything it was ridiculous for you? Oh my God grow up girl!" I said and tried to go through her but Lauren grabbed my arm, preventing me from continuing

"What do you want?" I asked.

"If you didn't care so much, why would be so angry with me...?" I tried not to look directly at her eyes

"The discussion was important to realize as a low person you arem.. And I never said I didn't care, you're the one who says I shouldn't care. And that's what I'm doing."

"I ..." she started saying looked at me "I think I was a bit rude.." she said and sighed

"Well, should it take you two months to realize that?" I asked

"Please Camila, cooperate with me" she said

"I'm not going to make things easier for you Lauren, not anymore... You hurt me physically a few months ago and I forgave you.... You hurted me with different words or ways and I also forgave you. Now I'ev had enough, I won't forgive so easily. I don't want to hurt myself again." she let me go

"You know why? Because today you are being lovely... tomorrow you will be ignoring me or telling me that you should have never have talked to me."

"How much it hurts...." she shook her head

"You keep continuing and ignoring the words of who wants to see you well..."

I looked at her for a few seconds and then I went back to the room, very annoyed to get to sleep.
