===== Chapter 13 [ Part 5 ] =====

Wednesday. 11:10 a.m. Looking up from your silver wrist watch, you send a quick glance to your platinum blonde - haired friend Peach before slowly taking in a spoonful of rice. It's quiet. Too quiet. Despite allowing this silence to remain for a few days now, you do not think that you can handle it anymore longer.

It's odd.

When that happened days ago, Peach changed.

She isn't the cheery type anymore.. She is just quiet these past few days. You tried talking to the girl, asking her the problem. If there's something wrong. But she would only give you a smile and say that it's nothing.

You thought that giving Peach a break might solve it, but no. Nothing happened. It stayed the same. Everyday just seems so sad now with Peach not initiating a random talk with you or anyone...You tried asking Dante if he knows any reason why she's acting like that, but he only laughs. "Don't you think it's good change?? At least the fucking bitch finally shut up," he happily exclaims. You can only glare at him when he said that. Thankfully he apologizes. But that doesn't mean that it is sincere.

Asking Dante is seriously very futile. He does not really care about Peach and is in fact very glad with the current situation.

Kielle at least tries to be helpful... He would also attempt talking to his cousin too, but Peach doesn't open up. The attempts are unsuccessful, but you are thankful that Kie's trying; on the other hand, Alessio's almost the same with Dante. However you don't know what he's feeling about this. He's just quiet...

"Peach?"

She interrupts you before you can even utter out another word. "I'm okay, (Y/N)." She smiles, a forced one. "I'm okay. I promise you." You sadly look down at your food. No progress at all. She doesn't seem ready to talk about those problems concerning her. Her cousin takes note of your disappointed expression... Kielle instantly feels the sadness.

Wanting to cheer you up, he squeezes your arm.

Thank you, you tell him with your eyes..  A smile almost seems to reveal itself. Kielle gives you a nod. As you do those non-verbal communication, Alessio's mood gets a little dark. His silver eyes are narrowed for a second. He then wipes any glares off his face before you and Kielle can even see him.  Alessio could not wipe it fast enough though. Peach and Dante are able to see the displeasure Alessio has shown for a little time.

Peach gets even more sad.

Now she is certain that her crush likes her best friend— Her best friend which is you. How come that she didn't notice it though. Now she finally grasps the reason why  Dante has been telling her that she has zero chance with Alessio. It's because of you.

You.

Peach looks at you— observes you.. Your cute blushes when Kielle talks to you. Your playful glares when the asshole Dante teases you. And whenever you catch his silver eyes taking you in, you would only be confused. Flustered. Shy. You didn't do anything. Nothing at all. Peach wants to be mad, but she just couldn't. Couldn't. Never.

Noticing her stare, you give her a puzzled look.

"Peach?"

Peach blinks her blue eyes. A genuine smile filled with sadness rises up on her face. "(Y/N)..." she murmurs to you, softly.. You tilt your head, confused by the sudden call. But you nod your head, urging her to continue on. Maybe Peach will finally say her problems. Well, that's what you hope.

Peach opens her mouth, and you wait.

Dante raises an eyebrow, curious what the bitch has to say... Will the bitch finally explode? Or— "Ah, no. It's nothing," Peach whispers as she looks away from your face. You sweatdrop, disappointed. Dante just gives her that strange look. What the fuck. Nothing really!! This bitch is just making everything bad for your friendship. Dante rolls his eyes... If Peach continues to be like this, then maybe your friendship will go down and crumble. Dante doesn't care however. That is why he isn't doing anything to help.

"Okay," you sadly say.

Kielle looks at you and Peach, wondering if there's any thing he can do to fix this. He doesn't want to see (Y/N) and his cousin like this. He'll do anything to fix what is going on between them.
