“Where is the festival?” I asked, when we were already far from the park.
“It’s in the center of the city!” Raf stated and I fell silent again.
Linc, Bella and I were walking together, while Ashley and Raf were going with their hands intertwined. I found myself rolling my eyes a lot.
When we were already there, I noticed a lot of people. There were attractions and stalls with toys.Everything was decorated with orange, red and green colours. Exactly like the autumn. The time passed so quickly. It was already the end of the autumn and soon we had to go back to LA and back to school.
Everything was so beautiful, that it made me smile. This atmosphere in this place, with a soft wind and with my friends by my side made my mood rise.“Look! The Ferris wheel! I’m definitely gonna try it,” I stated.
“But it‘s scary!” Ashley said and pulled Raf closer to h

It was morning. You wonder, what happened that night, after Raf had left me near the house? Well, I came into the house and there was still no one except for grandma and Agatha.“What happened? Where are others?” grandma asked, when she looked at me.“They are still at the festival, I guess,” I frowned.“Why did you come home so early?” Agatha asked.“I didn’t feel well. I am tired a little bit,” I answered after a little pause.They were still telling me something, but I didn’t listen to them. I went upstairs and wondered why Raf had stormed off. I didn’t wait for them to come home, because I fell asleep as soon as I lay my head on the pillow.When I woke up, I yawned and rubbed my eyes. What happened yesterday was still like a foggy morning. I just hoped that Linc would tell me. So I got up and quickly went to his room. He was sleeping, as usual. I sat on the edge

“Thank you,” he stated.“For what?”“For sticking with me during such hard time.”“You don’t need to thank me.” I smiled.“You should know that no matter what, I will be there for you. Always.”He smiled genuinely. “Here you go!” Linc gave us our cups of coffees.“Thanks, man,” Raf stated and started drinking. We were there in silence, until doctor came and stated:“Mr. King, you don’t have to worry anymore! Your granny is alright for now. But she doesn’t have to worry anymore! That’s the reason of her fainting! In the evening she can be discharged!”“Thank you very much, doctor,” he stated and came back to us. “God! I feel so relieved!” He sat near us again.“See! I told you!” I affirmed.He nodded and smiled. &l

When I came home, I didn’t say anything and went straight to bed. In the morning, I woke up at six A.M. and decided not to go for a walk. I didn’t want to meet him, nor I wanted to meet Ashley and grandma. But as usually, grandma started waking everyone up. I heard everyone coming out of the rooms. But I kept laying on my bed. Then I heard grandma coming in to my room and screaming:“Kylie! Wake up!”But I turned away to another side and closed my eyes.“Are you sick, dear?” she asked, worried.“I am not going for a walk,” I stated calmly, not opening my eyes.“Why?”“Because I don’t want to walk with a woman who doesn’t believe me,” I answered quietly.“Kylie! Why are you so stubborn? You are not giving Ashley even a chance to show her kind side!”“I gave her a chance, but she made it clear, that she was beha

“Gram,” Raf whispered.“Sorry, dear! I just wanted to check on your dad,” Agatha apologized.“No! Everything is okay! It’s just still painful for me to think about it. My dad is fine. All of us are still hurt because the absence of mom, however we try to hold up,” I answered and smiled.“That’s good!”“Thank you very much for your cookies and tea, but I have to go!” I went to the doors. “Goodbye! Have a nice day!” I left their house, walking automatically. In fact, I was afraid that I would cry. I didn’t like others to see me in this state. But Raf ran after me.“Peanut, are you okay?” he asked, as he approached me.“Yes...” I trailed off. “You know what? Nothing is okay. It hurts every time someone mentions her. It still looks like a nightmare for me. And the thing is I really want to stop this feeling!”

It was already our time to leave, so Linc put our bags in the trunk.“Visit me more often!” grandma said and kissed us.“Of course we will!” I exclaimed and hugged her tightly.“I will miss you!” Bella cried.“Bella! Come on! Don’t cry. We will see each other soon!” I laughed and hugged her. Neither me nor Lincoln went to Ashley to say goodbye. We were fed up with her sticking all those attempts to hurt us out. Even her voice made my blood boil and I didn’t want to see her ever again. I felt like freedom was coming to me. I wasn’t planning on meeting her soon. We sat in the car and I waved to granny and Bella. Then, we left.“Where were you?” Linc asked me and smiled.“Ohh! I had so much fun!” I started.He smiled again. I started telling him about how Raf and I put the signs on the people’s cars. He started laughing.&ld

When teacher turned to the board, continuing explaining, all of the students started laughing loudly. I felt like I was the one, who did that, somehow. “What? Why are you laughing?” Mr. Adams asked, bewildered. Nobody answered and we continued laughing. I couldn’t help, but laugh too. Then, Raf came in and was still laughing. “Oh, Mr. Adams! Someone glued the sign to your back! Poor you! Why are you laughing, guys? Something like that could happen to everyone!” Raf mumbled and laughed. Mr. Adams took the sign and read it. “Raffael King! This is your doing, right?” teacher screamed. “Me?! No chance in hell!” he laughed and tried to keep a straight face. “Detention!” he screamed and Raf sat back near me. “Look! You are helping someone and then they are screaming and punishing you! This is so ungrateful!” Raf claimed. Everyone continued guffawing. “Hush!” I whispered, but still was laughing.

“I can’t believe him!” Dylan started.“I mean, he doesn’t do relationships and now he is dating with that slut. Are you kidding me!” Linc maintained.I felt Mia’s hand on my shoulder.“Kylie, are you okay?” she asked me.“This has an explanation! I’m sure! He wouldn’t hurt me after our conversation!” I stated.“But it’s true! Kylie, I know that you are probably looking for an excuse. You like him, but I guess, you have to forget about him,” she whispered, but even in this crowd, I heard it very clearly and loudly.“Mia, I have already told you that I don’t like him! It’s just wrong that he is dating with my enemy, but he can date whoever he wants!” I smiled.“As long as you deny, you will get hurt even more.”“Listen, I will talk to him and scope this out. I am sure, that it’s not what

I looked up and saw Raf looking at our hands and then turning his gaze on me. I shook my head, narrowed my eyes and went to my seat. In fact, my seat was next to Raf, but there was Charlotte. I sat far from them with James. “Why did you do it?” I asked James, not taking my gaze from the copybook.“Well, firstly, I couldn’t make you talk to me another way. Secondly, it made him furious!” James whispered.“Are you blind? It didn’t make him furious at all! He doesn’t care! He is dating Charlotte!” I splashed out my anger.“Is it a problem for you?” He smirked.“No!”“Good, because as I said, you are a riddle, wrapped in a mystery, inside an enigma, and I won’t let someone else solve your mystery!” James exclaimed and backed at the spine of the chair, crossing his hands across the chest.The flash creeped across my cheeks and I stopped tal
