Complex Romance - 15 Focus on studies
After a few days, Teresa’s brother decided to visit the marching band club.He ask, ‘Sis, you wanna follow me to your school to see their practice?’
Teresa replied, ‘Nope I lazy, you go yourself Tommy.’
Tom replied, ‘Can’t you keep your beloved brother company?’
‘I will keep you company at home. I’m lazy to go to school.’ Actually the real reason was she was afraid to meet John, she didn’t want to face him.
‘Just follow me and I will buy you an ice cream’ said Tommy. Teresa couldn’t keep rejecting him, after being asked so many times. Hence, she decided to follow him.
When they reached school, all the band members were stunned to see them. They didn’t expect Teresa to be here with a boy, because most of the younger generation didn’t know Teresa’s brother. After saying Hi, Teresa just stood beside Tommy and ignore John. She didn’t even have interest to look at him, not even a glance.
‘Sis, where is the boy who ask if I remember him?’ ask Tommy.
‘Oh him? He is already an ex-member, he quit the club.’ Why did you suddenly ask?’
‘No reason’
Tommy had a nice chat with the band coach and other older members of the band as Teresa just stood beside him listening to them chat. Soon, time passed and just when John wanted to say Hi to them, they were already gone.
Teresa was in a great mood cause she spend the whole day with her brother, playing, goofing around, and teasing each other. To her, her family is her treasure, so she enjoys all the time she has with them.
When Teresa open the phone to see her notifications she saw one message from John. However, she didn’t open the massage first, on the other hand she massaged Harry, ‘Hey sis, you there?’
Harry replied, ‘I’m a boy not a girl! Stop with the ‘sis’ ! What’s up?’
‘Nothing actually, just wanted to tell you my bro asked me about you today when we were in School watching the band practice.’
‘You went to school? And your brother actually asked about me!? Woww’
‘Yup, so I reminded him that you were the ex-member haha’
‘That’s good, to bad I didn’t see him’
‘Yupp, okay then chat later I’m gonna go out now.’ said Teresa to end the conversation
‘Ohh, bye then, take care’ replied Harry.
After that, Teresa checked the massage send by John, ‘Why were you ignoring me the whole time in School? Where are you now? Did you and your brother left already?’
Teresa didn’t know what to reply him, or should maybe she didn’t want to reply him. But she still did, ‘ It’s not to say I ignore you, I just didn’t want to bother you with your practice. And yes I left School already, I’m gonna go out now, so might not be able to reply later. Bye.’
Teresa tried she best to be cruel, to show John that she didn’t want him to keep bothering her, to chase her or even to like her. She wanted to stop this complicated relationship of them, she wanted a peaceful mind where she could just focus on her studies.
