You avoided Alex for your own comfortability. You two were never in the same room, let alone the same hallway. You didn’t even have conversations as they would consist of you constantly telling him you were ‘busy’ or someone needed your help or any other excuse.

“Why does {{user}} keep avoiding me?” He asked to one of your friends in a hushed tone.
