Liam woke up and he saw that the room was empty, he felt a wave of annoyance but deep down he also regretted it a little, but what done was done. He didn’t want to hung up on past so he went on with his day.

Henry arrived home and jumped on his bed “How will I face him now?” this thought lingered in his mind but with this he also felt an excitement and happiness. He went to his islands of imagination and slept away.

At evening Ava came to his house, she rang the doorbell continuously, Henry woke up and opened the door, his appearance was all messy as if he was a beggar on the streets.

Ava grabbed Henry’s shoulders and asked worryingly;

“Are you okay? You didn’t came to college today and you weren’t picking up your phone”

Henry took a while to think what was happening and finally said this with a laugh;

“I'm okay I was just tired today”

Ava was a little angry but she couldn’t stay angry for long, she sat down.

Ava: Have you eaten yet?

Henry: No I haven’t eaten anything since last night.

Ava: Than how the hell are you still alive? I'm gonna order something you want pizza or burger.

Henry: Burger would be fine but I also want donuts.

Ava: You cannot let go of sweet things can you?

Henry had a fast metabolism; a little amount of junk food never affected his physique. While they both were having dinner. Ava asked:

“Why were you tired today? Did something happen last night at get together?”

Henry flushed, his cheeks got red but he tried to hide it much as possible.

“No nothing special happened tomorrow night”

Henry said this awkwardly. Ava felt something inside as if her sixth sense was telling her that something is wrong but she ignored that feeling and trusted Henry; she thought that Henry would tell her when the time comes. 

She ate dinner and left. As she was sitting on her bike she pondered over Henry’s behavior, it was little awkward because Henry never skips college except when he is very sick but he was not sick today so what was the reason? This bothered her but she still didn’t take it seriously.

Henry sighed with relief when Ava left. He wanted to tell her everything but he was too shy. He promised himself that until his and Liam’s relationship was not defined, he would not tell anyone.

Next day in college Henry couldn’t find Liam no matter how much he looked around, he asked people but they said that they haven’t seen him. Henry was hesitant to call or message Liam. He didn’t even know how Liam will react. He sat on a bench beside a tree and started recalling how he met Liam.
