Our eyes see and record every memory that goes on in life. A blog that writes short stories, motivation quotes, blogging tips, and positive vibes. The world is becoming insane. It gets increasingly violent, with wars, economic recessions, political power obsession, the deaths of innocent people, earthquakes, viruses, and disease. It may seem to be the end of the world, yet life carries on as long as the planet continues to rotate, and we are still breathing. I told myself last year that I would publish a blog article every week to keep the momentum going. However, things have lately altered as a result of several important priorities. And, as I write my second blog entry of the year, I have a nightmare. Everyone has one or more things they want to avoid in their life, whether it's people or events. We've been fighting this virus together for two years. I didn't want to get infected with the coronavirus at all. This could happen to anybody, including me. I recently tested p
A secret is like a glass that you have to protect from breaking. Once broken, it will spread all over the place. Even though the pieces of glass has been collected, it will not be the same as before, it's scattered. Therefore, it must be protected.
As soon as the police obtained the robberies, then the person told the police about the truth.
"Luna Gorge, wait for me!"
She stops, and when she turned her back, Mariah ran to her and patted her back.
"Let's go lunch together."
Without saying much, they just walk to the cafe together.
Luna Gorge, a sophomore student with, good background of studies, always with her book, and had a little socialize time with others.
Luna and Mariah met the first time during their orientation, handled by their course program. Mariah is a year older than Luna, and she is a third-year student. They became so close during the orientation in which Mariah is the facilitator.
However, their relationship was being misunderstood because both Luna and Mariah interact more than a friend.
So, from that, Luna tried to step back and tried to not get too close to Mariah.
Though the gossip went wild between her and Mariah, it does not affect their friendship.
Luna is an independent girl who's in her 20s. She was away from her family, back in the first year she was in the Universities, she manages all of her things, especially her life.
However, the gossiping that went viral between her and her best friend, Mariah, had struck her emotion because she was afraid of others' perspective.
Mariah, on the other hand, is a party type of girl. She never complaints about anything, and she is very open-minded with her circle. While Luna has a very normal life, Mariah's stepfather is very well known.
In other meaning, she is a rich daughter of Mr Brenkly.
When the gossip went all over the universities, it didn't bother her that much.
Her personality is much more like just letting it be; she doesn't really care about what people say.
One fine day, at the weekend, Mariah invites Luna to go to a cinema. But, because Luna knows that people might say a bad thing when they are two of them, she decided to bring Jackson, her male best friend, without Mariah knowing about it.
At 10 in the morning, when they all arrived at the cinema, Luna told Mariah that she will bring someone to the cinema.
As he came, Luna introduces him to Mariah.
Little that she knows, when her friend, Jackson, came, the expression of Mariah totally change. Neither she hate it nor not; she keeps quiet.
As they walk together, Luna was with Jackson all the time, and they were talking and laughing during their outing. Until one time, Mariah felt a little agitated when she saw Luna and Jackson were having some fun time.
Mariah felt being left alone.
The next week, Mariah came to see Luna. While talking with her, Luna told Mariah that she and Jackson became more than just a friend. Mariah was distraught when she heard Luna saying Jackson's name.
Out of nowhere, she stands up and gets away from Luna without saying anything.
Mariah being silent for a week.
In their universities, there was a website forum where students can post about anything. Not long after, a rumour came out from the forum posted by an anonymous saying that Luna and Mariah are actually in a relationship.
After hearing the nonsense rumour, Luna locks herself in her room and crying while Jackson came to her, comforting Luna.
One day, Jackson called Luna that someone followed him and broke into his rent house; instead of stealing anything, the robberies destroyed everything.
Jackson suspected that this might have to do with Mariah, but that's impossible.
After a while, after the police were investigating the house, they found one of the robbery identity cards.
As soon as the police obtained the robberies, then the person told the police about the truth.
It was Mariah.
While hearing the name, Luna was shocked. It became a question mark for Luna of not knowing what happened.
After that incident, Luna never saw Mariah again.
Six months had passed.
One of Luna's friends told her that they found out who was that person posted about her relationship with Mariah a long time ago.
It turns out, Mariah was the one who spread the rumours about the fake relationship.
That, in turn, make things became weird.
The secret Mariah kept all along is she's in love with Luna but never really wants to admit it.
A best friend that she thought her really best friend has actually had a crush on her. It didn't go well.
At the end of the day, everyone moving on to the next phase, and the gossip faded away. Luna moves on with her life, while Mariah, no one heard about her after the incident.
