Everyone Forced Me

My friends teased me with the name of the most handsome guy in our class. Not because we had something but he was teased by almost everyone's name. Although he was good in studies, he was the second topper every time. His name is Tyler. Since Alice was topper now he became third in position. Alice and he never had good communication. They were like rivals. I always thought him as a playboy. One day, in lunch time he proposed that beautiful second topper girl in front of whole class. Everyone cheered for him. As for me I never liked him as in my head he was a playboy. I thought he was a playboy because I had heard he had a girlfriend and there was much not time for their break up he proposed another girl. Then Jazz (second topper) said him to give her some time to think. It was a weekend after that day. So I didn't know what happen to their relation.

Until one day, we had a picnic. This time I had a friend, so I went. I was happy and excited. The spot was beautiful. We could have a nice view from a 10 min walk from the spot. So few of us, me, Alice, Jazz and few friends went to that spot with a beautiful view. To our surprise, Tyler and two more boys followed us. Then Tyler said he had to talk to Jazz in private. Then without enjoying view we came a little down to give them some time. We were a little far but we could see what was happening. Tyler got on his knees and proposed her, again. Then, I heard the other girls saying that they were already in a relationship, why did he do that again. Then they were talking more so we thought to return.

Then a boy who was with Tyler named Saww came and asked for Alice. I was near to Alice and everyone forced her. So, she went with him on that spot. He said not to wait for them and give more privacy. So we went back to the picnic spot. Then again I was alone. I sat and thought. Obviously, Alice would say me what happened so I was just waiting for her. After few minutes both returned. I asked Alice in a teasing manner, “What did he tell you?" She said, “Nothing special." Then I clearly knew she did not want to tell so I did not bother to ask her more also.

After few days, I heard the rumor that Saww had proposed Alice. I was hurt at first because Alice did not tell me about it. Then I asked her if that was true. She said, “Yes, I did not tell you because I did not accept him. I did not want to talk about that thing more." She added, “How did you know about it?" I replied, “Many of others have been talking about it. So I heard it." She became sad because she didn't want others to know. After few months, I was not that loner now. I talked to everyone. But still Alice was my best friend. We went home together every day.

One day, Tyler had asked me to take notes for him also, because he sat at my back seat. Alice was absent on that day so I sat alone. I said okay and took notes for him also. When he returned he was thankful to me. That day was nothing special. The other day, I saw Tyler with one of our friend talking. Her name was Tanie. She was also beautiful. When they were talking the class's door was closed. As the door had a small glass I could see them. Alice was with me. Then we saw that Tanie was being shy. She did not talk much. Then I thought he proposed her this time. Then a week passed. They were not in a relationship I thought. But one thing was for sure, Tanie liked Tyler.

Few days passed and I had to go to doctor for my ear checkup, because I had problem in my ear. When I returned from doctor to class. Everyone said to sit at the seat that was in front of Tyler which was empty. I thought they were teasing so I sat with Alice. Then during whole lecture, almost everyone said that Tyler felt bad though Tyler did not say anything. When I saw Jazz's face she was expressionless. She did not speak a single word. When the class ended, everyone forced me to sit on the empty seat. So I sat with Alice on that seat. When I asked Alice what was happening, because she also insisted me to sit there alone. But I forced her to sit with me. When I heard the reason I was... I do not know what I felt.
