Critic

I intentionally woke up late to make sure somebody who needs to leave has left.

I went to the kitchen to grab some food it's almost lunch. I'm so hungry, there are corned beef and eggs, that will take 10 minutes to cook.

I prepared the food, then bring it to my room. Andrei is at the couch scrolling his phone. It is so awkward to see him around. walked passed him and eat at my room. When I walk back to the kitchen to return the plate he is still there. He is about to approach me.

Can we talk Tara? He asked.

I can't I'm busy right now.

He barricades himself in front of my door

Please, Tara, don't avoid me. My choices to that matter don't change me. He tried talking even with the dark aura between us now.

It does change you Andrei, especially the way I see you. But I guess it doesn't matter. It's not my concern. The business will be the same though.

Things may change, I will leave soon. I know that's what is what you so desire right now.

I do, I prefer to be alone right now. And please do me a favour. Bring Drake with you.

You know what, people around you become so miserable coz you're not letting them into that small world of yours. He said accusing me of this nonsense statement of his.

Coz your world is too big I can't understand it. I will get lost when I try to even just step on it. We have a different kind of thinking Andrei better keep it that way.

Avoiding me won't make you feel any better.

It does. I feel better without any stress to think about. You don't have to worry about how I think about you. Just continue doing what makes you happy. You and my brother and Lisa. I don't need to puzzle myself to your sick fun. I told him about watching my distance.

Andrei is moving close to me while explaining what I've already seen. Seems like he wants me to understand him, like its a normal thing for people to do that.

Please, Tara, you have to understand, that people do things that are unacceptable to your views but that doesn't mean they are terrible people.

Insisting your own views on someone doesn't make you right, Andrei. I'm no longer a kid. I know what is right and what is wrong.

I just want you to understand me. I don't want this feeling that you are disgusted with me.

I need time I think. Now is not it. I left him at the living room. His face is so sad.
