"harry. avoiding me won't do anything. i don't know what's gotten into you." i spoke into my phone.
it was harry's voicemail again. it's been weeks.
"i really want you haz. i miss you." the line beeped.
"please.." i mumbled just to myself.
it was 3:36pm. i had been in my room all day. i didn't bother talking to my parents.
i opened my bedroom door, and looked around the hallways. no one was there. slowly, i creeped out and downstairs.
"zayn?" darn it. i sighed. my dad.
"what." i groaned. i didn't wanna talk.
"zayn come here please. we need to talk. you didn't come home till' late last night." i rolled my eyes after my dad spoke and walked to the kitchen.
"what does it matter to you?" my eyes widened.
"it matters a lot zayn. i'm your father." he frowned. i say down I front of him.
"were you with harry last night?" my dad questioned sternly.
"no i wasn't. i was with perrie and leigh. harry was supposed to come, but didn't show." i sighed heavily. "happy?" i stood up.
"zayn malik we are not done here." my dad hit the table.
"i actually think we are done." i was sick of this. walking out of the house, i got into my car and drove. drove for what seemed like forever. until I reached a diner.
harry's favourite diner. he'd talk about it all the time and said one day he'd take me.
he never did.
i haven't been there before. the place was kind of ghetto.
i parked my car, and walked inside.
"good afternoon sir. take a seat where ever." the waitress smiled at me.
i nodded and walked around a little, looking for a seat.

suddenly, i saw the curly hair and green eyes i haven't seen in weeks.
"harry?" i questioned, walking towards him.
"uh.." harry got up. i gently took his arm, sitting him back down. i sat in front of him.
"zayn.." harry sighed. he's been acting weird lately.
"what happened?.. i've missed you." i reached for his hand, and tried to grab it, but harry pulled away.
"are you okay?" i asked.
harry picked at his french fries.
"uh yeah.. i'm fine." he whispered.
"there's something your not telling me harry."
"zayn.. i-i.. it's nothing okay. i'm fine." he stood up. i stood up with him.
"haz. i know you keeping something from me." i grabbed his hand, but harry shook it off.
"zayn. i'm fine.. i told you last week. it's not going to work out." harry walked off, without word.
"why." i spoke, quietly. "why."

The Priest of Genes
Meet Seth, acolyte in the Church of Virtue. He’ll be a Priest like his father soon, he just knows it. Sure he didn’t inherit his mother’s preaching power, but he doesn’t mind being the secondary priest at whatever temple he is assigned to. Just as long as he has a library. Meet this genetics textbook. Hmm, that doesn’t belong here. It must have come from somewhere far away, I guess something happened to its owner. I’m sure a studious young man who likes healing could go far with this information, whether he wants to or not. This is my first time really writing anything, so I hope you like it! Please let me know if I make any mistakes; I have a new R&D tech job at a genomics company, so I probably don’t edit as much as some people. I’m shooting for two thousand-ish word chapters released on Sundays, since none of the webnovels I read ever seem to update that day. Underserved Market! Genre is fantasy, possibly progression fantasy. Maybe a tiny bit litRPG if you wait a while and squint really hard, but that’s the most I’m prepared to claim. Hedged my bets on the content warnings, nothing that bad. Cover art from A. W. Gelman
