Body Language of A Hurt Soul
She sees him later that week. Her time of not speaking to him has taken its toll on both of them. She is not angry with him or anything. She has gone so long not speaking with him, that she does not know how to behave any other way. Now he is no longer even making an attempt to smile at her. When he sees her his entire body language changes. He becomes stiff. He does not smile. He makes an effort not to even look at her. She notices the difference.
One day she is running late to class. She hurriedly walks out of her office, books and laptop at hand. Walls block her ability to see who may be coming from the left or right. She crashes right into him. She says oh, but he does not say anything. He does not react in any way. He does not even look at her. He just stiffens up and starts back to walking to class. She is hurt that he will not say anything. She readjusts and starts walking to class. He is stone faced. She says hi to a person right in front of him. She does this because she is nervous around the guy. Though it probably comes off more as she is able to talk to everyone but him.
