Keep it together,
Smile on your face even though your heart is frowning
But hey now, you know, girl,
We both know it’s a cruel world
But I will take my chances

So I initiated a talk with J. I found him so peaceful, calm and motivating and till date I pat myself on the back that I got his first impression right. I was the one who asked him for a picture on the last day of our trip. So on that day he was standing near the bus before our departure and Z comes to him surprisingly. Z asked him how his trip went, did he enjoy and all those casual talks.
Out of the blue, my not so innocent friend J, told me that he started texting me because he wanted to know more about Z. Yep I was offended. I didn’t know rejection would be so hard (laughing emojis I am not serious I promise). Lucky him though that I was cool enough to not interrupt their love story (smirk emoji). He also used my Instagram account to find Z’s ID. Don’t worry I will help you out too coz you are my blog friend now (kiss emoji). If you thought the love triangle was between us, baby sorry to shatter your dreams (laughing emojis). Later at 1 AM he sent a friend request to Z. To his surprise it was instantly accepted. Then they chatted till 3 a.m.
Next task on J’s list was to get Z’s number. And damn this boy has brains. So here’s what he did : one of our faculty had captured a lot of pictures of the students. J approached the professor and asked for his camera so that he could transferred the photos. He was successful as always (this guy’s luck I tell you. I wish I had this much luck, every crush of mine would have accepted me). As soon as he got the camera the first thing that he transferred were – Z’s photos. I hope you were able to predict this! if not dude you gotta watch more rom-coms (heart eyes emoji). Crazy stupid love makes us do these things doesn’t it? He took his own photos also and returned the camera.
Now J had an official reason to get Z’s number. You know it. He asked Z if he could send her the pictures from the professor’s camera. In a school boy innocent/cute vibes he gave Z several options like he could send them via Instagram or email but obviously emphasized on the phone number. He left Z in a dilemma which she didn’t even know she was in. Smart play. Finally Z fell for it and exchanged the digits. J’s hope grew. He wanted to be the knight in shining armor in front of her.
Tell me one thing all the girls reading this do you still fall for these stupid tricks that guys play or not? If you do lemme tell you (from personal experience) – every guy asks for your number either because he is into you or he wants to f*** you. I am sorry to say it out loud. Or maybe to make you a friend like J did to me (upside down smile emoji).
One experience that J told me he can’t get off his mind was when Z passed J. She was drinking Frooti. As soon as she saw J she came back running towards him. J’s heart was in his mouth when Z offered him her half drunk Frooti (laughing emojis). It was like a distant kiss.
You remember C? That girl whom J tricked into looking like Z. Yup never knew one lie to her would break J’s bubble of happiness. As she was talking to J she asked “You know Z has a boyfriend right?” J’s heart went – what the f***, you are kidding me right? The love of my life can’t be mine? No. No. Recheck it. It can’t be true!! But he reacted in a calm tone and said “Really?! I didn’t know. It’s ok. Z and I are anyways just friends. Nothing else. Chill.” C moved on but J did not. He was broken. Brave from the outside but a million pieces from inside.
J collected all the information he could of Z’s boyfriend. He didn’t leave any stone unturned. He got to know that they had been committed for five years now and he was pursuing medicine from abroad. There goes down his confidence, his self-esteem and his positivity. Comparison, jealousy, and his want for Z took over. He thought how can he ever be better than a doctor. He even started self doubting.
Have you ever been through a break up with a person who wasn’t your partner? Touchwood if you haven’t. But if you have you will feel me. It is harder than a real break up because you don’t really have a reason to hate them. But to not hurt yourself you gotta stop talking to them. You might have to block them. You gotta completely lose all contact to protect yourself. And doing all this while making sure they don’t get to know about it. This is what J was going through at that moment.
Do you think Z and J make a good couple? Do you think Z will break up with her boyfriend after knowing what J feels about her? What do you think will be J’s fate now? You are free to interpret in the comments.
Until next time, Adiós amigos.
