Chapter 13: HE DOESN'T EVEN DESERVE TO KISS HER FEET
During the day of the presentation of our project, I was a little nervous. What if she losses, will she really kiss him.
But, she looked calm and composed, as if she had nothing to losse.
As everyone presented their work, it was Michael's turn. His presentation won a lot of applause and that made me even nervous. But to my surprise, Sauna laughed, with that I knew we would win, so I smiled too.
As Sauna presented, even I was stunned. She explained everything accurately with examples. After that day ,I believed that a project is nothing without a good presentation.
The teacher congratulated us, as Sauna won the project and gained some marks for us both.She came up to me.
"We won!", she said.
" I can't believe it, for a moment, I thought we would losses. Your so amazing. "I said with a smile.
She froze for a while before finally replying.
" I couldn't let him win, especially with a bet this serious, I couldn't have done it without you."she said with a beautiful smile as she looked at me but, immediately looked away.
During break, Michael walked up to Sauna.
"A deal is a deal", Sauna said.
" Yeah, fine",he said.
Even though it was to kiss her feet, I still couldn't see it. He doesn't even deserve to kiss her feet.
"I don't think the kissing is necessary", I told her.
" Yeah ,your right",she accepted.
She turned to Michael.
"No need to kiss ,just kneeling is okay", she said.
I was happy she accepted, as I looked at him with a satisfied smile.
He kneeled and declared that Sauna is the best, before he was allowed to leave with a grim face.
" I guess we are done ,right",she turned to me.
"Yeah", I said calmly.
" Then, see you around ", she said.
" Alright ",I accepted.
After that, the day went by until it was closing for school.
The next day
She seemed to start ignoring me again.
During class , I stared at her for a long time, even though she knew I was looking at her, she ignored me. It made me really annoyed.
Even at break ,she walked with her friends and kept ignoring me ,she even avoided my gaze.
The next day,
The same thing happened and this time
I decided to talk to her, but she was not in class.After watching her for all this time, I knew where she would be. I headed to the library and there she was all alone ,reading.
I sat across from her, she looked up and her eyes froze on mine, but she turned away immediately.
" Sauna..,"I said as I calmly sat back.
"..uh..", she said.
" You're ignoring me, aren't you, and I want to know why",I said calmly.
"...I'm ..not ignoring..you..", she said, still avoiding eye contact.
" Sauna, look me in the eyes",I said.
She hesitated.
"Sauna, I said look at me, and tell me you are not ignoring me", I said a little agitated.
She raised her head, but still avoiding my eyes, her face a little red.
" I'm sorry ,but I have to go",she said as she got up to leave.
I couldn't let her leave just like that, so I got up and stopped her.
"You can't leave until you tell me why you are ignoring me", I said.
She backed away, as I came closer, until she reached the wall, her face turned red as I trapped her against the wall.
" Since we are done with the project, I thought.... ",she couldn't finish it.
