Chapter 16: Chapter 16

A week has passed and Michelle hasn’t seen Nathan. She was worried because he left without her notice, she didn’t even get the chance to say goodbye and he hasn’t called ever since. She remembered that Derek came home really angry the day he told her he was with Nathan at his new home. When she had asked him why he was so angry, he didn’t say anything, he just held her close to himself. She didn’t want to pressure him, so she didn’t question him any further. She wondered what might have transpired between them.

Maybe, he had an argument with his mom. But, if that were the case, Nathan wouldn’t be avoiding her like he's doing right now.

Michelle then decided to give Nathan a call, to know if he was okay and to know why he didn’t tell her that he was moving out.

“Hello, Michelle?” Nathan said as soon as he picked the call.

“Yes, it’s Michelle… Were you expecting to hear someone else’s voice?”

“No… it’s just… just forget it. How have you been?” he asked.
