The Space Inbetween~15

°×°

Exactly a week since the incident

Nathaniel's room

Niel was sleeping when Kendra entered his bedroom sitting on the bed beside him as she tapped him lightly.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Hey

Nathaniel Federico

*turns to Kendra*

Nathaniel Federico

*groaned slightly stretching* You are here.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Eaten? I bought you some chicken and fries.

Nathaniel Federico

I ate.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Oh, okay...

Nathaniel Federico

I will eat it later

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

*nods as she laid down beside Nathaniel*

Few minutes flew back with no conversation between them

Nathaniel Federico

*sigh as he sits up* Your silence always means something Ken

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Are you really not going to school?

Nathaniel Federico

I needed to clear my head.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

It's been a week already though

Nathaniel Federico

I-I just wanted to get over him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Do you need to do that though?

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

You like, and he clearly does.

Nathaniel Federico

*shifts uncomfortably* You think he do?

Nathaniel Federico

All I see is him finding all means just to make fun of him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

That's what your brain is telling you to believe, but your heart knows that's not true

Nathaniel Federico

Does it? *ruffles his hair*

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Nathan...come on.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

The guy had no idea who you really were throughout the time you both were chatting on the dating app until you told him, you said this yourself.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

He looks confused also when you were questioning him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Isn't that enough prove that he never was playing with your feelings?

Nathaniel Federico

...*curled up*

Nathaniel Federico

You don't understand

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Then make me.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

Because all I see is you hating this guy for nothing, he had been trying all means to reach you throughout the week, I even heard you blocked him when you called, all I see is you overreacting Nathan!

Nathaniel Federico

I WASN'T OVERREACTING!

Kendra shut as Nathaniel raised his voice at him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

...

Nathaniel Federico

Y-you don't understand at all.

Nathaniel Federico

You don't understand what I had to go through because of him.

Nathaniel Federico

It's annoying. Having to deal with being compared to literally everything about him.

Nathaniel Federico

The fact that they made it know to me how he was the first in just everything about us, from his height to his CGPA, to how good he is in basketball to our locker number and even our age. He was always ahead of me. I hate it so much

Nathaniel Federico

It's really annoying

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

...

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

*sit up as she turned to Nathaniel*

Nathaniel Federico

W-what?

Nathaniel had no idea he was already crying until Kendra's wrapped her arms around him hugging him.

Kendra (Nathaniel's bestfriend)

I'm sorry Nat, you are right, I had no idea what you are going through. I'm sorry for taking it lightly like that, please don't cry.
