I've Been There Before (Grace and Caden) novel Chapter 35

Grace got endless nightmares circled every night.

 

Standing on the edge of a cliff, she suddenly fell into an abyss... She woke up.

 

There was not an abyss, instead, the door after her was pulled to open from the inside room.

 

“Are you ok? You don't sleep on the bed but outside the room?”

 

Since then, Ruby usually ignored Grace when meeting her. Ruby looked down upon her and would not talk with her. She was 

so indifferent and despised Grace that she was shameful to talk with her.

 

Early in the morning in their common dorm, it was extremely rare that Ruby was kind enough to have a talk with Grace.

 

Nevertheless, it was not nice words, even worse than nothing to say.

 

Feeling too much dizzy, Grace was unwilling to reply Ruby.

 

She just said, “Last night the door was locked.” Ruby should understand what she was talking about.

 

Grace did not expect Ruby to make an apology, but hoped Ruby could stop doing something like this.

 

She heard Ruby said in a peaceful voice, “Oh. The door was locked. 'I might do it by accident when closing the door yesterday”

 

By accident? Who believe it?

 

Grace shook her head and stopped arguing with Ruby. She started to feel headache and everything around her was whirling.

 

Ruby continued, “It is not my fault. 'I made it by accident. But the door is locked, can't you knock it or call me? You have your mouth”

 

Ruby was so talkative that Grace with headache could not endure it to say, “Ruby, 'I am very tired”

 

Everyone could know it from Grace's face.

 

Ruby pretended to not hear it and laughed at Grace; she watched Grace to say, “Oh...l know. You mouth only works for the 

shameless things’

 

Grace held the door frame and looked too exhausted. She said again, “I am really tired”

 

She was too pallid now.

 

Anyway, Ruby still did not let her come into the room and said, “A moment.” She stopped Grace who was walking inside and became more aggressive, “Grace, 'I tell you now, don't meet Franklin again!”

 

Ruby would never admit that she was badly envious that Grace and Franklin got along too well with each other. As a student of S University, Ruby had to work part-time in Royal Club for earning tuition. She believed she was totally different from the other ones there.

 

Grace held the door frame...She almost used up all her energy so that she would not like to say anything but lie down on the 

bed soon.

 

“Ruby, 'I feel not well”

 

Hearing this, Ruby stopped for a minute; abruptly, she burst into anger as she got insulted too much. She shouted out, “Grace, 

don't be so poor. 'I only talked with you for a while, so now you don't feel well?”

 

Grace pinched the middle of her eyebrow; she was unwilling to argue with her anymore.

 

“I got wet in the rain last night. Didn't you lock the door?”

 

Grace just told the truth; she did not imagine it irritated Ruby completely. Possibly, Ruby did not like her to the extent that 

anything she said would be incorrect.

 

“What did you mean by that?” Ruby was angry to say, “Is it me who let it rain? And 'I told you already that 'I locked the door by 

accident. You think 'I intend to do it?”

 

Already in dizziness, Grace felt more headache with these words. Actually, she would like to refute Ruby or work off her 

unhappiness without any hesitation.
