Confused

I walked on the path beside the football field. A few boys were loitering beside the field. I turned to my left and walked to the backyard. Nobody was there and for some reason, I was feeling scared. I looked forward to the dense trees but Fardinn was nowhere to be seen.

Suddenly a hand landed on my shoulder. I jumped forward and let out a loud gasp. I quickly turned around and saw Fardinn chuckling and shaking his head. I huffed as a relief washed over me.

"I knew you would come." He laughed softly.

"Was it very important to scare me, huh?" I raised an eyebrow while trying to decrease my heartbeat.

"I didn't plan to scare you. It just happened." He grinned.

"Come to the point. What do you wanna talk about?"

He reached into his back pocket pulled out his iPhone and started taping something. He turned the screen to me. I looked at the screen and saw it was the pictures of Marjan, Reema, and mine. My eyes popped out of their socket as I realized it had taken when we were in the club.

"What the hell?!" I widened my eyes.

"Relax, I won't tell anyone." He laughed.

"Oh yeah, I get it. You're going to take revenge, huh?" I crossed my arms on my chest and scoffed.

"What? Of course not." He knitted his eyebrows and chuckled.

"Then why are you showing this to me? Why did you even capture these photos? Are you here to blackmail me?" I raised an eyebrow as my blood boiled in rage.

"Relax, Natalia. I'm here to ask you why you went to that club last night. That's it."

"And why should I answer you?" I frowned and laughed sarcastically.

"Natalia, Natalia, you're very innocent! You shouldn't have gone there! That place was full of bad people!" He said in a serious tone.

"Well, it's none of your business. Did I ask for your opinion?" I fired back.

"I know you're mad at me, Talia. I know it's ridiculous to you. But I always cared about you and still care about you." He spilled out.

"Then why didn't you listen to me and let me explain what happened last time? And now here you are suddenly so concerned about me." I shouted. "You know what, go to hell with your beloved girlfriend."

"I'm sorry. I'm so sorry for what I did to you. Delilah ruined our friendship and I've heard everything from Ryan. I wanted to talk to you about that but I was nervous. I knew I ruined our friendship and I hurt you. I'm sorry for everything. It's all my fault. But I care about you. Please give me another chance." He looked at me, guiltiness was visible in his hazel eyes.

"I don't know, Fardinn. I'm really confused. Why are you apologizing now? I'm really confused about your sudden behavior."

It was really weird and confusing. He was standing in front of me, showing me some photos of mine and my friends dancing in a club and then apologizing for some shit that had happened a few months ago. It was confusing but at the same time, it was quite ridiculous.

"I understand what I did. I was the real bastard full of shits in my little brain. I'm so sorry for everything. Just give me a chance. We'll be good friends again." He looked into my eyes like he was searching for something.

"Okay, I forgive you. But I need some time to think if we can be friends again or not. And I hope you won't leak these photos." I gave him a small smile and started walking in the direction where I came from.

"I won't. Don't worry, you can trust me on this. But Natalia, don't go to that club anymore. It's not a good place for an innocent girl like you." He said in a cold suspicious tone.

I didn't say anything, I just gave him a small nod and walked away. I knew he was full of shitty attitudes and an egoistic person from the beginning, maybe that's why he couldn't open up and apologize to me. I let out a deep breath and hoped he wouldn't leak those pictures.
