Teacher's Girl (Aflyingwhale)
Chapter 80: Bubble Burst
EMMA’s POV :
"Is that her? What did she say?"
Sophie gasped when we heard Tristan's phone buzzed.
"Nothing… it wasn’t her..."
Tristan sighed as he scanned his screen, "And she left me on read..."
"See! I knew it!" Sophie exclaimed.
Tristan rolled his eyes and threw his phone on the bed.
He looked upset and defeated.
He rolled over to his side, avoiding eye contact with us.
"Soph, don’t gloat," I nudged her elbow because she was being insensitive.
"But we're right about her, Emmie. She's a bitch!"
Sophie announced.
"She is a bitch, but Tristan’'s still getting his heart broken," I hissed.
Sophie’s eyes softened as she realized that her brother was hurting because of this.
Even though it was the truth and it was what he needed to hear.
"I'm sorry, I.."
Sophie said as she brushed Tristan’s arm lightly.
"Whatever. It's whatever," Tristan waved his hand carelessly.
"You'll find someone better, I promise.You deserve someone so much better than her," Sophie cooed.
"Whatever.Just leave me alone,"
Sophie and I shared a look and we knew we had to get out of there.
Once we stepped away from his room, I turned to Sophie and asked, "Is he gonna be okay?"
"I hope so.He's been in love with this girl for years.But I guess it's better that he knows now than later," she sighed.
"Yeah..."
"Are you going to the station? I'm going out for a club meeting, I can drop you off?"
Sophie said when she noticed I was dressed up and ready to go.
I thought about saying yes, but then I took another glimpse at Tristan who was lying on his bed and I felt bad for him.
When I was having problems with Ian, he stayed up all night with me and listened to my sob stories.
"Actually...on second thought, I think I’m gonna stay here today,"I said.
"You're not going to the city?"
"I'll stay with Tristan.I think he could use a friend,"
"You're such a good friend, Emmie," Sophie smiled appreciatively.
"You two will do the same for me if the situation was reversed,"I shrugged.
"Thanks.Please take care of my brother for me,"
"Will do,"
I walked back into the apartment carrying a shopping bag full of stuff.I was struggling to carry everything while holding a phone to my ear.
"Hello?"I heard Ian’s voice on the other line.
"Emma? Are you on your way?"
"Ian, hey, I'm sorry I'm gonna have to bail on today.Tristan’s having a rough time and I think I should stay with him for a bit," I said apologetically.
"Tristan? Your roommate?"
"Yeah, he’s having girl problem and I feel bad for him,"
"So you can’t come today because you stay with him?" I could hear the note of disdain on his voice.
"Ian, he really needs a friend right now,"I pleaded,
"..Yeah, sure, I guess..."Ian sounded disappointed, "
But no drinking and you stay five feet apart from each other at alltimes,"
"Alright, alright, you possessive man,"I laughed.
"I’m not kidding, Emma.I don’t know him.I don't trust him,"
"But you trust me, right?"
