Chapter 202 - The Hidden Page Of Cedrics Life (1) (1/2)
Ch-201
Cedric was so disappointed that he started taking drugs. He used to visit a bar in Arrowglen near his apartment and started taking drugs. Soon, he became the biggest drug buyer in that bar just for himself.
He would turn mad if he doesn't take drugs even for a single day. He even fought with someone when he didn't supply the drugs he takes. That led him to be jailed. And that's when the police realized he was a drug addict too.
That was then… Nathaira entered his life. Nathaira went to the jail for Cedric to get bail for him. When the police refused she stayed a complete night there. Even then they didn't give bail to Cedric no matter what she did. Then she did one of the stupidest things in her life that was… messing with the police station. She turned the police station upside down and made it a mess.
That was then… a person from the opposite Cell to Cedric saw her innocence and stupidity. It was none other than Oliver. He watched Nathaira messing the station just to get her friend out of the station by resorting the stupidest way.
He watched as they locked Nathaira in the same cell as Cedric as there were no other empty cells. The next day they shifted her to the empty cell. Oliver can still get a nice view of Nathaira's cell.
While… Nathaira and Cedric didn't inform their parents about the situation as it was a complicated case. But somehow the police found the contacts of their parents and called them.
Both Cedric's and Nathaira's fathers came and got the bail for them. But for Cedric, the bail was complicated. He got bail only after Regan gave the admission letter in the drug rehabilitation center.
Cedric took nine months to get out of the drugs. It doesn't mean… he completely got rid of drugs. But… he left drugs by eighty percent. If his drug addiction gets triggered again… he may not be able to get out of the drugs again.
After he got out of the drug addiction center, he decided to resume his studies. And that's when Nathaira took the chance to confess her feelings.
She proposed him on the first day of their university which Cedric turned down.
Maybe because of her young love, Nathaira couldn't take rejection. She chased him persistently making him annoyed. Five months passed… but still Nathaira couldn't get over the fact that he was rejecting her continuously without batting his eye.
When she couldn't take it anymore, she invited Cedric to a party saying she would give up on him.
”I hope you will come this time. If you come, I will take it as you want to be my friend forever or else… I will take it as I lost a friend,” Nathaira said as she pursed her lips.
”I will come,” Cedric said as he smiled. Cedric felt relieved that he won't have to deal with Nathaira anymore. He went home and did his work for some time. When it was time for his appointment with Nathaira, he got up and got ready to meet her.
Nathaira held the party in her house itself along with a few of her friends. After getting drunk, her friends left. While Cedric stayed behind. He refused to touch alcohol due to his drug addiction.
”Why don't I get a juice for you?” Nathaira offered another glass of juice to him when she noticed his glass was empty.
”I have already too much juice. No more,” he said.
”Then… how about dinner before you leave, so that you can sleep right after you reach home. Tomorrow there is a session about Digital Image Processing for me. Such a headache subject,” Nathaira said as a disgusted expression formed on her face.
Cedric chuckled at her reaction. He was glad that she was getting back to their olden days. And indeed he heard her complaint that she failed in digital image processing test with less than pass mark, which shook her complete department. And the professor almost thought of attempting suicide as a top student failed his subject only.
”I will help you with that,” Cedric said.
”Really?” Nathaira asked with surprise.
”Yes,” he said.
”Yesh! Yesh!” she exclaimed and hugged him tight and kissed his cheek.
”I shall eat more tonight then! I will order food. What do you want?” she said jumping in joy. She acted as if she was acting out in an instinct. And even Cedric believed that she did that unknowingly to her.
