Elina-Jenny

Elina opened the door to her room. Her room mate, Jenny was watching something on her laptop with her headphones on. Then she laughed.

"Must be something funny I guess" Elina thought.

She straight away went on her bed, lying down with her face flat into her pillow, not even bothering to change her clothes. Hugged her pillow tight.

What the hell did I just do?

Why am I still feeling like shit?

She got up, sitting on the bed, took out her handphone, and stared at the screen. Then she pressed a few buttons on the keypad. Then stared again at the screen.

Suddenly she felt a tap on her shoulder.

Elina turned, and saw Jenny sitting on her bed, looking at her.

"Are you OK? Is everything alright? You look like such a mess" Jenny asked.

Elina just kept quiet.

She kept on fumbling with the buttons of the keypad of her handphone.

"You're not thinking about calling him, are you?" Jenny further questioned.

Elina just kept mum, yet again.

"Elina.......

You were the one crying to me, like 5 weeks ago.

And you started contacting that specky guy - what's his name again?

Well, whatever.

I thought you were so over him!

He has moved on.

With that very bitch!" Jenny exclaimed, furious.

She started walking away.

Elina's eyes were fixated on her handphone.

Jenny turned again. Looked at Elina.

"Still not saying anything? Fine, suit yourself. Just try to not break your heart again will ya?" Jenny said.

Then she proceeded to put on her headphones, and watch her movie on the laptop.

Elina looked at Jenny's back.

She doesn't understand.

No one will.

She looked at her handphone again.

Phonebook.

Breezed through all the names. Until she saw the one she wanted.

Dialing.

One ring.

Two rings.

"Elina?"

Elina hung up.
