My Source of Happiness [COMPLETED]

🔷 16 - Distraction 🔷

[Angin's POV]

You know what's saddening? It's that, you never get to spend some time anymore with that person you cared about the most, unlike the both of you used to before.

Yeah, I feel sad on the inside. But, I never made it too obvious to other people, especially with my best friend, Api. I feel like he's suffering in his life more than me, so I shouldn't be a burden for him; that's because I'm also feeling a bit gloomy lately.

To be honest, I've been faking everything. My smile, my determination, and my happiness. Though everyone sees them so warm, so true and genuine. I just don't want anyone to worry about me, and I know I should stay strong despite the problems I'm currently facing.

I know it's been almost a year ever since Dad left us, and that incident still pains me 'till this day. I still can't move on from it. I tried everything, distracting myself from that incident, but I just couldn't forget about it.

Come on, Angin. Just stay positive. Just stay strong. Everything will be fine. I know it will...

... I hope it will...

One kind of distraction I've been doing is, talking with my best friend, Api through sending messages using our gadgets. He's using a laptop, while I'm using a computer. Well, I just need any kind of gadget to chat with my close pal, just so I could also check up on him.

We were just talking about some things like, hobbies, interests, favourite stuffs we like, those kinds of things. I was actually glad when he said that he's been doing good lately, in which I felt contented by it though. He really needs a friend, just to be there for him when something's troubling him.

It's been a few hours since me and Api were talking. Those few hours had been very blissful, especially when it's only me and my best friend, just living in our happy, little world. But our precious moment didn't last long until, I need to get off my computer and say goodbye to my best pal for a while since, I need to do my assignments, and yeah, there are pretty much a lot of it.

I bid my farewell to Api then turned off my computer, doing my requirements at school afterwards. At least some of my homeworks are a bit easy to do so, I better work on those first before the complicated ones. Also, this is my second distraction: Doing some schoolworks.

Hey! At least, I wouldn't think too much about that incident, and my big brother who just happened to... change all of the sudden.

One in a half hour had passed, and I was already working on my last assignment. Phew, my homeworks were plenty, to be honest. But at least, I'm almost done.

"Aaaaaaaaaannd.... done!" I grinned, as I closed my English book. "Finally, I can do whatever I want!" I said, sighing in relief afterwards.

Knock! Knock! Knock!

Surprised, I turned to look at my door, my brows furrowing. 'Who is it though?' I thought as I got up from the ground and walked towards my door.

I then opened my door, curious as to whom just suddenly knock from the other side. When I swung the door open, I was surprised to see that, it's my big brother.

Honestly speaking, my big brother hadn't gone nor knocked on my door ever since the incident. So, I was totally shocked when I see him right now, here, standing outside of my room. I wonder what made him go here though...

"Angin, we need to talk."
