" Back to reality, Milly. What are you thinking?" I heard Jason's voice which brought me back to the present. Pearl is already out of sight.
" Nothing important. What's up?" I asked, giving him a space to sit next to me.
After some classes, Pearl's back to normal. Now, we are in the ground for P.E ( Physical education) class. To be honest, I hate this period. Why should I even run in the ground or do some exercise? Am I going to participate in a marathon?" Someone's looking so tired. The period hasn't even started." I heard Ryder's voice behind me.
How dare can she talk like this? I thought she's out of Jason's and my life for good." Get the hell out of my sight," I said, trying not to make any scene. That's not me. I have no idea how to be a bitch like her. I gave a hand to Pearl to help her get up. She rubbed the dirt off her dress. She looked at her elbow in pain." Are you okay, Pearl? " I asked, examining her hands." She's fine. Stop overreacting." I heard Crystal's voice again. What does she want from me? Can't she mind her own business?" I told you to..." I started still trying to act calm. But then, I heard a girl's voice behind Crystal." Maybe Pearl wanted to call Andrian to show her injury. But he won't give a fuck about her."That's it. Mess with me. I can deal with it forever. But talking about my best friend like this is beyond the limit. I do remember this voice. It must be
" You aren't a coward, Emily. You are not going to say this to your mom and get back to Paris. I don't want that to happen and definitely not because of Crystal." Jason stubbornly said. I'm not a coward. I don't wanna be a coward. I need to face this. I can't imagine myself entering into my class again when all are talking and laughing about this fight by seeing the footage. I wish I could put an end to this." We can talk about it later. Right now, she needs some ointment." Ryder reminded by seeing my elbow and legs which are slightly bleeding from the pressure I had given to them in the ground while fighting crazily. Did you hear it? Crazily. I'm ashamed of it." I don't need any ointment. I'm skipping the class and sit somewhere I can be alone." I replied but Ryder's grip on my hand hasn't changed. He's holding me still but his voice isn't angry." Just put some ointment. Then we can skip the class. I promise yo
" Her name is June. She was a twelfth-grade student when she died." Ryder said." How she dies?" I asked. That's when Both Jason and Ryder spoke at the same time." Murder,"" Suicide,"" What? Oh my gosh! What's the true story? Don't you know it?" I asked looking at either side." It's not a suicide. It's a murder." Jason strongly confirmed." Go ahead. Tell what happened. I'm sure that it's suicide." Ryder responded." You got the wrong information. On prom, everyone stayed a little bit longer in school. That's when this girl fought with her boyfriend. Their presence seems disturbances to others so they occupied this room to sort it out. When her boyfriend's temper raised, he slapped without a second thought. He didn't think it would cost her life. She fell and hit her head on the table hard. All that the boy saw is her bloo
" What the..." I looked at it and read the heading and the below details. Our school is selecting students for auditioning for a play. But what's the story? It must be mentioned somewhere." Why are you looking at some trash? Throw it in a dustbin." Ryder said without taking a minute to look at it." No. It's not trash. Our school is conducting a play. They are auditioning students for a Vampire drama called 'Dark Night'." I said and read all the necessary information given in it.The next minute, Pearl snatched the paper from me and blurted something. " Sorry, Em. I totally forgot to tell you about this. I'm auditioning for this play. I'm not sure which character should I choose. I don't know whether I'm good enough to audition for the main character but..."" Whoa, whoa. Stop right there. Why are you always giving me a late update about anything? I guess you have amnesia. Now, you can proceed by ta
The next hour of my life was going on with happy tears. I never felt so happy before. Nothing could be equal to this moment. I know my dad will leave Florida again. But atleast I got to be with him for a week. That seems pretty long to me. I should probably put leave for some days. I want to embrace every second with my father." You never wanted to skip school, Emily. Not even for a day. You are doing something new." My dad said. He can't imagine his daughter not being a nerd. I'm always a nerd.
I didn't notice. I didn't notice who comes to my mind first. Even if I did, I'm kind of afraid to think deeper. Maybe this isn't the right time to decide." I guess you don't remember. But I hope you notice it next time." My mom said after I hesitated to answer. Finally, the day's over with a little conversation with my mom.....After three days...." Hey, Em. I got the script for the best friend character. I have almost done with learning it. Do you want to hear it?" Pearl asked once I stepped into the class. She did her rehearsal with me. After an hour of practice. I attended some boring class and some interesting ones too. Now I'm sitting in a chair near the swimming pool. In case, I forgot to mention that I had joined swimming classes a week ago. Even though Jason isn't my coach, it's still good to be a class where Jason is present. There's a month left a swimming competition. So, the beginners on
I stared at the empty place where Crystal was standing a minute ago. The next batch lined up for the match. Jason already got out of the pool. He's surrounded by his friends. I can't go to him to ask for help by explaining the situation. I have no other friends with me right now. All I have left is me. How am I going to save myself from Crystal's plan? I have to delete the photo. Footage plays a large role in my life." I will wait for you here," Lexi told Crystal and crossed me as she made her w
