Chapter 49 NEW FEELING

• CLARA'S POV
• I had been restless since yesterday, Leo's last sentence seemed not to be leaving my head anytime soon, until I am convinced that he is fine and nothing had happened to him. Even while I was in school, my mind was far away from me and Jack seemed to notice it. He asked me continuously if I was all right and my reply was always a "yes" Through out the whole lectures we had today, I didn't grab anything that was being taught. Some student were gossiping about why Leo hasn't been in school since the beginning of this week, they kept on saying lies that suit them but I didn't care as long as I have been seeing him. My only problem at the moment was Leo's last statement yesterday and my harsh reply. Once it was time for dismissal, I ran out of the class immediately which got me stares and unnecessary laughs from my classmates. I ran down the stair like I was being pursued, some people began to give me weird looks while they also paved ways for me in order to avoid getting hit or pushed. Someone was also running behind me but I didn't bother to look until I was outside the building, it was Jack.
• " Allow me to drop you off since you are in a hurry and also not in the right state of mind" I was quick to agree and Jack smirked, trying not to laugh. "It is Leo right?" He asked me but got no reply, I rested my head on my hands, staring blankly at the while window while he began to drive. " Leo finally has someone to worry about him, you really like him right " Jack asked, already bugging me with all his questions. He doesn't want to give up with the questions he had been asking all day. "Answer me Clara, if you don't I will take it for a yes. Do you like Leo"
