"Modern Loneliness we're never alone but always depressed, love my friends to death, but I never call and I never text. Modern Loneliness, we all take it high but we don't know how to come down."

Vera's POV

"What if I try to design a graffiti art for him saying 'I'm sorry', will he still answer?" I ask Florence desperately.

It's the day after I apologised to Florence and I'm trying to get Tobi to forgive me..

Yup, I'm so desperate, I want to paint a graffiti for him.

Don't judge, I've literally run out of ideas. I tried talking to him today during lunch, but he only responded to Florence.

He's really punishing me..

It's only hurting you that much because you like him!

If only I could shut you out.

"Yeah while you're at it, you should organise a dance mob just for him" Florence says teasingly

Could that work?

"Do you think that'll be okay?" I ask again

"Geez Vera, I was kidding, don't try anything silly! Just give him a little space to breathe" she says

Breathe?

Breathe?

Was I choking him before? Oh my goodness.

"I'm being real here Flo, what if he never talks to me?" I whine with annoyance.

"Don't over think it" she says and smiles
That's definitely not going to be easy.

"Here's your Government note Vera" Collins hands me my note as he distributes the rest to others.

He's actually that isn't fully mad at me.. I mean I give him a bad attitude each time he talks to me, that's just the way we  cooperate.

He's definitely fine with it.
Right?

"Uhh thanks" I say seconds after he left

Yeah I know a little too late.

"He's looking at youuu" Florence starts to sing

"What" i ask to be sure if she's singing to herself or to me

"Himm" she sings again

"Who?"  I ask eagerly

"Tobi you idiot!" she starts to whistle with it.

Oh shit. Oh shit. Oh shit.

Should I look to my left?

Or I should just pretend like he doesn't exist?

That's what you did the last time, and look at where it got you.

For the first time ever, I agree with my mind.

"What should I do?" I ask. I swear I could feel the class getting smaller and smaller by the second.

"Uhh look to his direction and wave, don't do a huge wave, just do a quick one-

" Okay okay" I say cutting her off

"And smile! Don't start looking like a bitch" she says laughing

I roll my eyes at her and decide to focus on my main problem.

Tobi.

Shit what if he looks away?
