《A Collection of Short Stories: Quiet Girl》17. A Little Jealousy
Advertisement
There was always a little part of Cassie that felt protective of the men who surrounded her daily life. From simply wanting to take care of them if they ever fell ill, to not liking it when anyone even so much as looked in their direction. There was one of them in particular who she didn't like the attention he would get on a regular basis, and while yes he was essentially famous, Cassie didn't think that meant anything.
"Who the hell is this girl?" Cassie said as she scrolled through multiple pictures of Amai with another female. Cassie didn't recognize her from anything, not another girl group, not a childhood friend, not someone at the company, not even a manager. Cassie was slightly filled with jealousy thinking that maybe Amai had moved on from trying to date her and was with this girl. She felt her face hot and thought about why she should even be upset with this.
"I-I mean, we're not dating and I..." She trailed off for a second. "Well I am single!" She yelled, "I can get upset if someone who I have the chance of dating is with some other girl... it would be different if it was a guy who was all over Amai, but..." She grunted and locked her phone before sitting in her chair looking out the window. What should I do? Cassie didn't know what to do, she didn't even know if she could fully call this jealousy or not.
She thought too long on it and found herself becoming disinterested in everything. She didn't want to write, she didn't want to eat, she didn't even want to move her hand to put her desktop to sleep. She rolled her eyes thinking about Amai.
"I mean, he can date if he wants to, but why put me through all of that for so long then?" Cassie wondered if she was taking this too seriously. Right as she was thinking that her phone went off and without thinking she answered it. "Hello?" Her voice came out angry.

"Woah, what's wrong with you?" She heard Amai say.
"Nothing." She simply stated.
"Well okay... but I'm near your place right now and I figured maybe we could hang out for a bit." The hell? Don't you have a bitch already?
"Aren't you busy?"
"No, I finished practice a while ago, but we still have something to film later tonight. We just got a little bit of time off." Cassie pressed her lips together. She knew saying no to him would only cause some kind of problem down the line, especially because Amai could very easily find out she wasn't doing anything from Ankara.
"Alright, where are you at?"
"By that cafe near your place."
"Alright, I'll be there in a bit." She hung the phone up right after saying that and got up to get dressed appropriately.
As Cassie was getting ready to leave when it suddenly began to rain. The universal sign of something being wrong... Cassie sighed and got an umbrella and headed out to meet with Amai.
When arrived at the cafe, she saw the dyed gray hair of Amai mixing with the slight mist of the rain, she didn't bother to call for him, but as she got closer she noticed he was talking to someone. She stopped trying to see who it was and Cassie only felt her blood boil. He's really with her? Does that mean- Cassie's mind went all over the place and her thoughts about the rain didn't help. However, she went up to Amai and finally got to him, the girl looked at Cassie causing Amai to turn around as well.
"Hey, sorry to call you out like this." Cassie said nothing. "But, she has to go so." The girl nodded and gave a smile to Cassie.

"Too bad we can't talk a bit more." Cassie gave her a fake smile, "Maybe some other time?" The girl suggested. Cassie nods "Alright then, you two have fun!" She said teasingly, Amai sighed and gave Cassie his full attention.
"She's really too much with that... but good thing I was here or I would've got caught in the rain." Cassie nods, "But, maybe we can share an umbrella." Amai said with a chuckle, Cassie made no effort to talk. Amai gave her a look. "Okay seriously, I knew something was wrong over the phone. What's up?" He said. She shook her head.
"It's nothing serious." She finally said.
"Well it's making you upset, so it must be serious." Cassie looked off but then spoke suddenly.
"It's nothing... but I was wondering who that girl was?"
"Oh, it might be bad for me to tell you this, but you don't even go on social media." Amai got close and whispered. "She's gonna be a host for this new show that's planned to air in the winter. Our group is planning to be the first guests!" Cassie felt a bit happy about that.
"So, you know her from work?" Amai nods, Cassie released a small sigh.
"Wait a second, you've never asked me about anyone else I've been with before."
"Well, it's just because I saw a few pictures of you two together."
"So? I take pictures with my bodyguards sometimes. You know that's just how I am." She looked off, "No way." She looked back to Amai, "Are you jealous?" Cassie stared without saying anything. "Oh shit you are!"
"I-I'm not!" She finally said.
"I doubt it. Look at how red your face is!" Without even being able to see, Cassie knew she was blushing. Amai smiled at her and stepped a bit closer. The rain began to slow and Cassie could clearly hear him. "You don't even need to be jealous. You know I only have eyes for you."

The Sorcerer
This is a fanfiction based on Harry Potter, written by JK Rowling. BEFORE YOU LEAVE, as fan fiction isn't what royal road is known for unless your book is called Borne of Caution, hear me out. This is based 200 years into the future. Hogwarts will be very different, and besides some references, we will follow no characters from the book. In my opinion, this is more of a new, mature, and more realistic version of that universe. If we want to put an analogy to it, I'm borrowing the house, but it's my furniture and things on the inside. Synopsis - 200 years since the battle of Hogwarts. The muggles know - magic is no longer a secret. Wizards and witches show their magical traits much later in life now, their powers weaker than previous generations... and to make matters worse, there is a steady decline in the wizarding population. Follow along as Lux, a muggle-born, shows the world what one determined young wizard can do.
