Chapter 43: Chapter 43
“You know nothing, so stop acting like you know everything!!” says Helena.
Helena then leaves with a rage that still overflows. Meanwhile, Drake was just sitting in his chair laughing. No one knows why he laughed. Maybe Helena’s angry face looks funny or maybe he's just laughing at his lonely life whereas everyone else ever has someone. Yes, losing love doesn’t hurt him so much, but being betrayed by his own best friend is the greatest suffering he feels right now and always torments him.

Smiles from both corners of Natty’s lips. Her eyes kept glancing at Gale walking in front of her while glancing at her. After making sure no one saw them. Gale and Natty go into the women’s restroom. One by one their restroom doors are open, making clear there’s no one in there.
And after making clear no one in the toilet, they open the door at the very end and get into it. Even their warm hugs are linked while staring at each other and teasing each other. They are as passionate as they are in the world of both. A world that only they have. They stare fairly as if they had not met for a long time.
“I’m happy now that I’ve seen your face.” Gale said with a seductive look.
“Me too, but it feels sad because we only have 5 minutes before the bell.” Natty said while playing his finger to Gale's hand.
“Five minutes is worth it to see you. I feel pretty happy because after seeing your face that will give me encouragement. I miss you...” Gale replied with a smile and a flirtatious stare.
Gale then pulls Natty’s waist and reduces the distance between them. Their legs overlap. Breasts that touch each other and heat the air. With her attractive gaze, Gale took a bold step by kissing the little pink lip. A slight kiss, a suction and then a hot one. Then the tongue also comes into play and twists and shakes each other. The longer it gets deeper and deeper.
Natty can feel something running all over her body like a man being electrocuted, when electricity is going all over her body. Thing that makes her want to go down even deeper. It felt so good that she closed both eyes and wanted to feel more and more. Natty lets herself sink in and lets Gale lead her.
They’re getting immersed in love. Gale takes another bold step, she presses Natty against the wall. Then kiss Natty’s neck while Natty hugs her. The thrill of being ready to take them even further. It’s an unbearable feeling that keeps their passion going up.
“Nat, Natty!”
Helena’s natty voice sounds very close. Natty held Gale’s shoulder and told her to stop. They shut up for a moment and tried to hear more. And as soon as Helena calls Natty again, they both panic.
They were afraid Helena would open the door and see them alone. Natty comes out and asks Gale to stay inside the restroom. Gale is a little anxious, so she tries to restrain Natty by holding her hand, but Natty pats Gale’s hand and looks at her with a soothing gaze. It’s like she's saying that everything’s going to be okay. Natty opened the restroom door halfway out and again closed the door before Helena could see Gale.
“Why did you get me to the restroom, I’m not a kid.” Natty said.
“Why did you stay in the toilet so long?” asks Helena.
“I’m sorry, my stomach hurt so bad. Let’s go back to class.” Natty said while pulling Helena out.
Helena is quite suspicious of Natty’s behavior. When Natty pulls her out as if she wants to make her go fast. Helena then glances at the restroom door where Natty came out, and she looks at the leg of a woman wearing typical black shoes worn by Gale.
Helena could deduce something that might happen in the restroom. But Helena won’t say. She doesn’t even want to think that’s the case. She still wants to deny everything she sees. She can’t accept that someone she knows and is close to is an abnormal person.
Although some people and some countries already recognize. In fact, she's seen many people who have relationships like this. She might tell if it’s a stranger she doesn’t know. But if it happens to someone very close to her, it’s very hard to accept it. It’s even easier to deny everything.

The class resumes and the atmosphere becomes more awkward for Alex. He can’t see neither Drake nor Ruby. He still can’t improve his relationship with Drake because Drake keeps avoiding him, but Alex is eager to fix it because only Drake is his best friend and no one can replace him.
Ruby monitors Alex, and she understands what Alex is feeling. Ruby still wants to help Alex revive his friendship with Drake. Ruby is also thinking of trying to figure out a way that she can help Alex. She then tore up the paper writing something on it and then handed over it to Alex.
‘If you can’t talk, how about writing a letter like this?’
Looking at the contents of the letter, Alex stared at Ruby. Ruby smiles broadly at Alex as if she told Alex to do it. Alex looks back at a little piece of note Ruby gave him. To be honest, Alex was very hesitant, regardless of whether or not this would work. He’s just never written a letter to someone before. There’s always doubted if we want to do something we’ve never done before.
“Come on, just do it. There’s no way to try that...” Ruby assured Alex.
Alex obeys Ruby’s words. He tore up the paper and tried to write a letter. But writing letters is harder than he thinks. It’s very hard to choose a word to write. He wanted to apologize, but he didn’t have any mistakes. He wants to have Drake back to be friends with him, but Alex doesn’t want to sound weak, and he shouldn’t sound arrogant either.
