Both Evy and Eddy skipped school the next day. But both of them knew that they would have to face each other soon. Evelyn didn’t know what to tell Eddy when she met him, and whereas Eddy was concerned, he knew that he wouldn’t be able to handle rejection from her. The next day, both their friends forced them to go to school. In the morning, Mrs. Natalia called Evy into the staff room to talk to her. “Evy, stop hurting yourself.” She said when she saw Evy in a disheveled shape. “Hailey and Owen told me everything. They are concerned about you." “What should I do?” Evy asked, clearly desperate to know the answer. “Just follow your heart.” Mrs. Natalia said. “I did that before and see where it had led me.” “Evy dear, everything happens for a reason. You need to let go of your past with him. The heart will lead you to difficult situations where it will ache and break, but it is never wrong.” Mrs. Natalia’s words were stuck in Evy’s mind. During the break, Evy finally saw Eddy and co
After the break, Evy tried searching for Eddy, but she could not find him, and when she did, he rushed to get away from her. He was avoiding her. It seems that the tables have turned now. Finally, after school got over, she rushed towards the road where he was walking home to catch up with him. But no luck. He soon disappeared from her eyes. While walking, she was carefully glancing around to get a glimpse of him. Finally, she saw him sitting on the swing in the park where they once used to play when they were kids. They had wonderful memories of their childhood, where there was no peer pressure. They were just kids who enjoyed playing with each other. The only stress they had was completing their homework and getting enough space to have fun and what games to play with each other. Eddy was lost in his thoughts when suddenly Evy came out of the blue. He noticed that she was trying to talk to him, but he thought of it as his illusion. “Why didn’t you drag me to an empty room to ask m
As time passed by, everything got normal. As normal as it could have been with time. Evy and Eddy didn’t directly start with a relationship like shown in movies where lead stars kiss and make up. They took things one at a time. They decided to take baby steps, took their own sweet time, and enjoyed their moments of patching things up. They built their past relationship by being best friends again. Evy slowly and steadily started to trust Eddy back again. It didn’t take much time as she thought it would have taken. She was content and at peace with how things were going. Eddy thought it might be a bit slower, but he knew for the fact that it was necessary. He and Evy both needed time to understand each other and also the dynamics of their relationship. All three, Hailey, Evy, and Eddy, caught up on old times and filled the missing gaps, and Owen, Carson, and Kayla also accompanied them. It didn’t take long for Eddy and Evy to become best friends again. Yes, initially Evy was a bit care
It has been a year since Evy has visited her hometown. She would be lying if she said that she did not miss it. Her parents live here, and she had spent her entire childhood in this very place. So yes, she definitely missed it. She has lots of lovely yet painful memories here. One thing that Evy didn’t miss was her school; ‘THE WOODSTOCK HIGH SCHOOL.’ It is a private school. If you are in the ‘IT’ crowd, you will be in love with this place, but if not, you will dread every minute of it. Especially when you are associated with any of the popular kids, but ‘you are not fit to talk to them.’ However, if you are lucky and do not have any contact with the jocks and Barbie’s here, you can live your life peacefully. Well, you might guess who exactly Evy is? Evy is short for Evelyn Brook. She is your regular seventeen-year-old teen. She is the only daughter of her parents and, like every other daughter, she is a daddy’s girl and shares a special bond with her mom. They are not extravagant
Evy took a deep breath and entered the gate of the school. Yes! She was nervous. But unlike usual, it had nothing to do with fear. She can’t think of a correct word to describe her feelings. All in all, she can say that she was excited. Evy was curious to see the reactions of all those people who had made her life miserable in this school. And most importantly, she was anxious to see her best friend. The one who was a rock for her. She was always there when she needed a shoulder to cry on. The one to whom she could say anything and everything. The one who didn’t care about her reputation. The one and only Evy’s true best friend, Hailey. Evy has not been talking much with her in the past year. They did chat once in a while, but nothing major. Her best friend has no clue that she has enrolled her name in this school once again. As she was entering the gate, Evy got curious glances from the students here. The boys were shamelessly checking her out, and the girls were glaring at her. H
“Hey honey, you back?” Evy’s mom asked aloud when she closed the door. “Yes, mom,” she answered her back and moved her feet towards the kitchen. “How was your school?” “Usual,” she said to her innocently. But as it is said, nothing can be hidden from a mother, so her mom instantly knew that her school went better than usual. “Of course, honey, your gleaming eyes say that school was fantastic.” To which she stuck her tongue out. “Uh, mom, I have invited Hailey and Owen to hang out. You don’t mind, do you?” “Of course not,” “Love you, mom,” she took an apple and ran to her room. Evy’s room is the favorite part of her home. It is not that huge, nor is it tiny. It is covered with beautiful lavender colored wallpaper, which has a white floral print design. In the middle of her room is her comfy bed. On one side of her room is the study table, which is attached to her bookshelf. On the other side of the room is her dressing table. Unlike other girls, it is not loaded wi
Unlike usual, today, Eddy was anxious. He doesn’t know if there is any such thing called Karma, but he knows one thing for sure, he has to apologize to Evy soon, or else he will lose her. Maybe he had already lost her? NO, Eddy will get their friendship back on track. He just needed to tell her sorry. That’s it—five-letter words. After an hour or so, he drove to school. It took him around fifteen minutes to reach. He wanted to solve their misunderstandings. So, he thought about waiting in the parking lot. You might peg him as a desperate guy. But no, he is not desperate. He wants Evelyn back in his life. During this one year, he missed her a lot. His train of thoughts was intervened by the view in front of him. Evelyn, Owen, and Hailey were cycling to school. And he would be lying if he said it didn’t matter to him. You might be wondering why the hell he is creating fudge about them riding a bicycle. His answer to your question is that two to three years back, all three of them us
Today, their first lecture is going to be Psychology. Evy was pretty excited because, in every lecture, Mrs. Natalia makes them do something different and new. Though there is a possibility that some activities might be a repetition for her, that’s fine. “Well, hello class.” Mrs. Natalia greeted everyone. “As you know, today is our first workshop session. Before starting with anything, I would want to tell you that this workshop is different. Here we are going to do many activities. To make this workshop work, I will need your participation, and I’ll guarantee you that each one of you is going to enjoy this.” “Of course, if you are teaching, then definitely, we are going to enjoy.” Victor grinned, to which Mrs. Natalia just rolled her eyes. “So, I have every girl’s name written on this sheet. Each boy will come and pick up that piece of paper. The name written on the paper will be your partner for every activity in this workshop.” Mrs. Natalia explained. “But miss, last year you ga
