The day I let go

Warning bells never ring without reason; they echo with truths we often ignore, signaling danger before it strikes and urging us to listen before it's too late.

Right now I have an idea of what the truth is , but I have my doubts and I know what I'm ignoring right now ! But I might be the danger if I'm too late

" Earth to Diana !! We need you here " I blink twice pushing back my thoughts to see Stacy and Inéz staring at me

" You wanna talk about it?" My eyes meet Stacy's worried ones

" Talk about what ?"

" Everytime you zone out like that and get lost in your thoughts I'm always worried about you , and honestly it scares me " there are numerous reasons you should be scared of me Stacy ..

" I'm fine Stacy , we have to finish professor Stine's work , he nags a .. " I change the topic

" Deflecting won't work this time " Inéz cuts me off

" Well I'm not talking about anything so either we do the work or we stare at each other or better still I'll leave "

" Okay okay ! Fine "

" I cannot believe he gave us an assignment on CBT seriously?!!! I thought studying Cognitive Behavioral therapy would be fun " Inéz whines

" It is and the assignment isn't even that hard "

" Of course you would think so... you love professor's stine's teaching " huh I actually do .

" Fine listen up ! So we each write out a situation where by we were nervous and we write out the cause , the behavior and all that then we write the after effects like after gaining composure how did we feel ?"

" Ughhh nope " Stacy cries out

" Common we don't wanna fail his course "

" No you don't wanna fail his course I don't even see the need " After much arguments we finally finished

" See it wasn't so hard .."

" Princess we need to talk " I turn around to see Rami " I'm coming"

" Stacy get a grip on yourself!" I scold her , Stacy looks flushed and I don't mean the friendly crush kind , I mean the type that screams I'm ashamed please God let the ground open up and swallow me and I'm curious to know what she did " well hello Ramiro, good to see you too , what do I owe the honour of this visitation? Or is it a who " I side eye Stacy

" C'mon outside "

" Kk"

" Wassup? "

" I messed up Princess"

" Messed up how ? "

" It wasn't meant to happen I wasn't meant to touch her , I don't even know argh "

" Okay why don't we take a sit " I know he slept with Stacy it's quite obvious but why is he so mad about it

" Now tell me what happened "

" Okay she was actually the one who made the first move " that's my brave girl

" I've been avoiding her and turning her down till yesterday I couldn't control myself so I .. "

" Pounced on her ?"

" Tf ? Don't say it like that , we had sex and it was .. "

" Okay onyx I don't need the details of your rock and roll ! So what's the actual problem "

" I want .. you know what . This is stupid "

" You find yourself wanting more of her , when you look at her you can't think straight "

" How'd you know ? "

" Well ... Novels " or might be happening to me but no one needs to know that

" Well yh that's what's happening"

" If you really like her , take her before another person does , be a man !! "

" You are right ! Thanks princesa "

" Sure anytime you need counseling come with payment " I chuckle as I relax into the chair

" So anything new going on in your life? "

" We are becoming talkatives ,especially you !! Look at you asking questions

" Don't deflect" .

I sigh and shake my head " Nothing new okay apart from the weird friendship I'm kinda getting used to " and Damon and Dante appearing when I'm alone , also I've been imagining Damon's warm breath at the back of my neck and maybe other things but who cares !!

" That's okay , I have to look for Ale " .

" Rami , do we always listen to the warning bells ?"

" No princesa , sometimes we see the truth the warnings bring but ignore it and honestly it's not our fault " .
