Chapter 31: CHAPTER 31: Boy Friends

“HI, Nat.”

“S-Scott...” I trailed off, stuttering by just saying his name.

He sat down on the opposite side of the table, smiling at me from ear to ear. When I didn’t say another word, he took a deep breath, before doing anything. Actually, I’m not yet ready to talk to him. And besides, he suddenly came here so I’m literally unprepared.

“Would you mind looking at me?” he asked, so I did looked up to him.

I’m being shy for what I did and being hurt at the same time when I remembered what happened down the hallway of our school. Though I couldn’t even blame him for doing that to me. I mean, it’s my fault, I guess. So maybe I deserved it.

“Look, Nat. I’m very sorry for screaming at you the last time... I shouldn’t have let anger get in the way of our friendship... And also, I shouldn’t have taken it out on you...”

He tapped my hand on the table, and that’s when I got some courage to face him again, and I saw him smiling at me.

“Would you forgive me, Nat?” he asked.
