The next day, I waited for Gumball at the bus stop as everyday, but he didn't appear, again.
''It's the second time he says that he'll take the bus with me and he didn't appear'' I thought
I entered in the bus and saw that there was Darwin, staring me from the back of the bus
''Creep ...''
I kept thinking about what he told me Yesterday, but I didn't saw Penny neither, so I couldn't talk with her, I was alone ... Again.
I sat in my typical seat and I kept watching the window till the bus arrived at school, I got off the bus and entered in the school, the day passed normally till the last class, it was psychology. Ms. Simian teached us about the differences about emotions and feelings ...
''Well class, today we're going to learn about feelings and emotions, you certainly all of you must think that they're pretty the same, but in fact they're very different ...'' Ms. Simian said
I looked around but I didn't see neither Gumball or Penny, in fact, that day the class was almost ''empty'', there was only 6 seats occupied, in which we were only Me, Bobert, Tina, Darwin, Leslie and Carrie, but the rest didn't appeared, it wasn't even Flu season, so it was very strange really
''... The emotions are the feeling or perception of the elements and relationships of reality or imagination, like when we see something new, you feel fear or curiosity, with the emotions, we can say that we like something or we don't like something, with it we have a perception of our world and how we feel it. Finally, emotions are intense but temporary, we protect our mind from the harm of the external world and in basis of that, we react.'' She said to the class, but no one was listening her, except me.
''And feelings ... the feelings are the result of emotions, they form an emotional conclusion about life, how to live it, and more importantly, how to survive physically and mentally in a world of chaos. When this happens a feeling is born. The feelings are of long duration, but way more slight than emotions'' She concluded.
''Darwin, what could be an emotion?'' Ms. Simian asked him
''I guess that fear, Ms. Simian, it prepares us for something immediate and we take actions in base of that''
''Well said, Darwin, but what if the fear is constant and we concludes that there's something that cause us that emotion, it becomes a feeling?''
''I'll put an example, Teri has fear of losing someone, she becomes aware of the dangers of losing him, she reacts with fear, her body prepares to defend herself and then she interprets the situation and proceeds with her reaction to that. If she loses him, there will be a feeling of depression and bitterness, because it's her way to anticipate the danger of being hurt, again.
''That's an very accurate comment, Darwin, good work!'' She said happy because someone understood
''The heck is he talking about, he doesn't even know me and talks about me'' I stood from my seat outraged
''TERI!, Calm down ... It was just an example'' She said
''Yes Teri, or it's your way to defend yourself?'' Darwin said with a grin
I couldn't stand it, I grabbed my things and went out of the class, I went out from the school and I went to the park, where I hoped that he would be there, I looked around and didn't saw him, I sat on our bench and cried for a while, I drawn some tears that ran from my eyes to my cheeks
''Why he says he will come, but he don't '' I thought
I stood there, looking at the mountains, waiting for the northern lights, the ones I knew that wouldn't appear ...
''Just like that day ...''
I finally stopped crying and went to Gumball's house, he'll for sure be there, where else he could be?. As I got closer, I saw a figure coming out of the house, it was him ... but he was coming out with someone ... else
I hid behind the bushes and waited. I Poke out my head and saw...
It was definitely Gumball .. he grabbed the hand of someone
.. It was Penny ...
When I saw that, I hid my head again and broke down in tears
In that moment, the world fell apart, my weak paper heart passed through a crusher and it was now broken into pieces, when I saw that scene, I wanted to run, runaway as far as I could, I felt how a huge mass of desperation fell into my shoulders, and it was letting me breathless...
I couldn't hear what they're talking about, but it was a really short conversation, I could hear him saying Goodbye and entering into his house and she just left
I decided to go home, there was nothing that I could do there ...
''I knew this was going to happen...''
If Darwin's theory about my feelings was right, now I was in the phase of reaction, but ...
''How could I react if I love him ... ''
''He'll never find out that someday, I loved him with my whole heart, but now ... I feel that I barely know him. How could he do this to me? ...
I thought I was ..
... Special''
In that moment, my phone rang, it was an entering message, it was from Gumball...
''Finally everything is over, Teri, now I can say ... I love you''
''Yes ... it's seems that everything is over.'' I said as I erased his number from my contact list.
The storm has started
Teri will ever find out what they were talking?
Gumball lied to Teri?
Darwin's theory was right?
Find out in the next chapter :D
See you then !
