19. I Did It For You Guys
“What was all that about? Care to explain?” I asked, staring at Jos straight in the eyes as she tried to look away. We had been resting in an empty classroom after the big blow we received from Jos and Kate had been saying just how marvellous Jos looked when she is angry. But I couldn’t have any of the fun. Not after what I had heard. Motel story? Whats that supposed to mean?
“What else Rosee? Its just that Lara isn’t the person we knew her to be for all these years, and thanks to Jos, that cover blew out and now we know the truth!”
“I wasn’t asking you?” I hissed back at Kate, making her flinch and back away. Jos finally looked at me, completely aware that I was angry and shouldnt be angered more. “Rose, calm down.”
“YOU TELL ME THE TRUTH AND I’LL DECIDE TO CALM DOWN!&

7thSeptember 2027,It was a fit. The doctor had said. Katelin had a seizure. Since it was her first, it had affected her a bit more, but nothing more than a little paralysation and difficulty in walking. But within a weeks rest, Kate is just fine. The doc said it was because of the new weather Kate had witnessed in the prison, which didn’t sit well with her. Kate barely ate, disgusted with the jails food and where it might be made, so she starved herself, not knowing what it was doing to her. Now that she is back on her feet and out and about, all is well with her, as if she had never been to prison a while ago.“Where will we go now?” she asks, as we leave the bakery with arms full of baked cake and bread. Kate is in a good mood, thankfully, so we decided to take a walk outside, like old times, but neithe
Oak Tree 21. It Still Hurts, You Know
"Mr Potter?" I ask, now standing up. We stare at each other for a while before breaking into small laughter. "Oh my goodness, how long has it been?" Mr Potter asks, shaking my extended hand. "Ten years, I guess." Says Kate, now standing up too. "Katelyn Akirdnach?" He asks before Kate offers her hand. "It's good to see you again sir." Mr Potter laughs in delight again before shaking her hand. After the hearty reunion, Mr Potter sighs, saying. "Goodness! Look at you two! All grown up! I have been away from country for five years now on business. Just returned a week ago. The last time I saw you guys was during High school graduation. And now you are both what? Working?" Mr Potter beamed at both of us, waiting for answers. "Yes, I'm a lawyer at Trust and co. Kate's an airhostess." Kate looked at her feet as I said the words, knowing all too well that she wasn't an airhostess anymore, but I wasn't planning on mentioning that right n
Oak Tree 22. Ben
“Can I come in?” “Can I say no?” I laugh lightly, unsure of what to reply. Ben steps aside, making place for me to walk in. Ben is a really nice guy. Among the three friends, if I were to choose one as the best gentleman, it would be Ben. Like I said, Ben and I aren’t that close, never were. But Ben knows how to make you feel at home. I have never actually had much in common with Joseph, so I really can’t speak for him. As for Charlie, well…you already know. “I’m sorry I called in so late, I had planned this visit thirty minutes ago myself.” I say, leaving my over coat on a rack and following Ben to the massive kitchen. “Don’t be. I don’t mind if any of my friends from the circle shows up. I get really lonely here. Would you like something to drink? Beer?” Ben asked with a smile, walking forward to open the refrigerator. I shake my head as I sit down on one of the counter stools. “Thanks but no. I can’t drink now. Water will be good.”
Oak Tree 23. FLASHBACK [Enemies, Pranks And Love]
16thMarch 2016,“Hey! Look! It’s Lara.” Someone whispered behind me. I lifted my head up from the novel I was reading and found that the whole class had gone pin drop silent at the arrival of Lara, who had been missing school for the last four days. Laras eyes were fixed on the floor, as if taking one look at any of us would make her barf. Whispers escaped from every corners of the room. They were all talking. All except the three of us. we stared at Lara with a blank expression on our faces, before I finally decided I had enough and buried my nose back in the book. Kate and Jos followed suit.One might say it was rude of us to stare like that. But we couldn’t help it. before we knew it, the three of us were already staring. Not because we were shocked at her guts to show up in school after the earfu
Oak Tree 24. Charlie And I
“Stop it guys!” She said shyly, slapping my arm. I winced playfully, showing that I was hurt. Kate, on the other hand, couldn’t stop herself from smirking continuously.“What was that for? And stop what? We didn’t even do anything. Yet.”Jos eyes grew wide, as if what I just said was murder itself. I smirked along with Kate, folding our hands over our chests.“Oh you wouldn’t dare!” Jos hissed, glaring at us. But that didn’t help her cause at all.“Oh we do dare!” Kate hissed back playfully, and that’s all it took for the two of us to jump on Jos and tackle her to the ground, tickling.Jos shrieked and laughed, trying to steady her voice through all the laughter and command us to stop. But all that came out was muffled words, which Kate and I didn’t bother listening. Thank goodness the school was almost empty, leaving this corridor completely
Oak Tree 25. Pig's Blood
The next day, when we would arrive at school, a surprise will be waiting for us in our lockers. Buckets of pig blood for a blood bath. Jos and Kate have blood phobia, and every one in school knew about it after an incident in the biology lab. I had lied saying I had blood phobia as well, just to make it the three of us together. It angered me a lot, to think that someone could go to this extent to hurt someone. If a person who has blood phobia touched even a drop of blood feels nauseous. Bathing in a bucket of blood would just kill the person. Rihanna that bitch had no heart. If she loved Ben that she was supposed to do something to convince him to love her, not something that would make him hate her. So Ruby completed us on the last part of the plan. The buckets will be placed in our lockers after the end of school by some of Rihannas goons. Which means, she would have nothing to do with this incident, keeping her hands clean. Clever bitch.
Oak Tree 26. When Relations Break
10th September 2027,"Kate! Breakfast is ready!” I call out, flipping the pan cake over in the pan one last time before placing it in a plate with two other pan cakes, pouring maple syrup over them. A few minutes later, Kate walks in, still in her sleeping shorts and smiley emoji t-shirt. Rubbing her eyes, she sits down on one of the stools in the kitchen counter, sleep still lingering in her eyes.“Did you wash your face?” I ask, pouring some of the pan cake mixture on the pan, not turning around to see if she has or hasn’t because I already knew she didn’t, because this happened every morning. A smile tugs at the corner of my lips as I hear the stool creak with movement, Kates footsteps echoing as she walks to the washroom to wash her face.ate! Breakfast is ready!” I call out, flipping the pan cake over in the pan one last time before placing it in a plate with two other pan cakes, po
