Her FaceBook Friend

“Close your eyes and think with your heart. How many advantages you forgot just because of few disadvantages.” [Remo]

[Third Person’s POV]:

Jacqueline’s one eye filled with tears and the other leaked with salty lotion.

“I am fine Now. Thank you.”

Remo frown at her formal answer, he thought they were past that formal stage. His fingers pressing on the words rapidly as he sends her another text in few seconds.

Despite her puffy eyes, she smiles as another message pops up on the screen.

“Don’t you trust me, Jacqueline?”

“I do.”

“Then why don’t you want to share your pain with me? What could I even make use of it Hon? I just want to know. You know. And I heard that sharing the pain can reduce the effect it has on the mind. Don’t you think I deserve to know? Even a little bit about you?”

She takes the tissue from the table blowing her nose, looking more like a terrible honk, a goose.

“A New Student arrived in our school some days ago, he sat beside me on the school bus and asked me what my name was.” She types rhythmically as her salty potion seems to have stopped.

“Oh. I think you told me about the incident. But I don’t think asking for a name could be that bad?” Remo remembers their old conversation where she had informed him about it. But at that time he shrugged it off.

“Ah, I might have told you about it. But now the situation is out of control. You are right, it’s not a bad thing for most people. But for me it is. I usually prefer to stay to myself, and his face screamed trouble. So in haste, I ended up lying about my name.”

“Oh yeah, I remember what happened later?”

“He turned out to be my cla**mate, and he is kind of blackmailing me from that day onwards.”

“What kind of blackmailing?”

“He had kind of stopped me twice. He is continuously pestering me about it. But today things have escalated a lot.”

Reading her texts engulfed Remo in strange feelings.
