Todos os capítulos de My Best Friend: Capítulo 11 - Capítulo 20

When World War Three did not break out immediately, I cautiously walked to the living room. I found Zack with his arms crossed as he sat on the couch; he looked very, very upset. Kevin was there with slightly widened and panicked eyes. He looked like he didn't know what to do or what was going on. ''Um Zack hey, whatcha doing here?'' I asked as I stood in front of him. ''I saw on his story that you were having a party, so I decided to come over since my invitation seemed to have gotten lost,'' he said. ''There isn't and, there won't be a party. Sorry to disappoint but you can go home now,'' I said. Zack looked at me with furrowed brows, ''Why do you want me to leave so badly? Since when do you question why I come over? You're MY best friend, remember? We always visit each other unannounced,'' ''Yes I know that, but I'm hanging out with Kevin right now. You do know I'm allowed to talk to other people, right?'' He rolled his eyes,'' I know that,'' he pouted. I sighed. I knew I was

''Oh, sorry about that. Lucas, this is Zoa and Kevin. Guys, this is my dear older brother Lucas,'' I introduced them to each other. They exchanged greetings while I dug in the food Lucas bought for me. A jumbo hot dog and iced tea. It was pretty good, minus the icky relish he didn't ask them to leave off. The tea was also too sweet and the hot dog was not warm enough. Perhaps I was just trying to find fault in the food so I could justify my bad mood. That was a thought I didn't want to get into so I tried to focus on the rest of the game. Everyone seemed to be really interested in it. ''They are so annoying. Do they ever shut the fuck up?'' Zoa said to me as she sipped her iced coffee. I thought it was odd to drink coffee at nearly 11 at night, but I was drinking black tea so, I wasn't going to call the kettle black. I laughed and nodded,'' All they do is yap on and on and on. They make chihuahuas seem like librarians,'' The game ended so we decided to get more food since the gam

I often wondered why Zack and I became friends. That thought would lead me to wonder how we stayed friends for so long. Sure we were similar, but we were also very very different. Zack was naturally charming and well-liked, he was a huge fan of tomatoes and pickles on the other hand I was an awkward, unfriendly people-hating tomato avoiding, pickle despising person. It didn't take someone with two brain cells to see how different we are yet we've been friends since the very beginning of time. I'm convinced we were friends in a past life as well. ''Why do you think we're friends?'' I asked Zack as I rested my head against his chest. We were in my room just enjoying each other's company while my laptop played some random sitcom in the background. ''I don't know. They say opposites attract so it might be that,'' he shrugged not giving my question much thought. ''Don't they say that about couples?'' ''I don't think so. I'm pretty sure it's just for people who are opposite but are att

''Why are you smiling like that? You look like the Joker. It's really freaking me out. Stop it, stop it right now,'' Lucas said as he opened the fridge to take out the juice. ''My apologies for being happy dear brother,'' I sarcastically replied. ''Apology accepted,'' I looked around for something to throw at him but, unfortunately, I came up empty-handed. Sure I could throw the broom I had in my hand but I was using it. ''You're lucky I like this broom,'' He laughed. ''Want a glass?'' I nodded and went to get the shovel. ''So when are you two going to get together?'' Lucas asked. He said that so casually. My eyes widened, ''I'm sorry?'' I asked, my palms sweaty. I kept my eyes on the line of dust that refused to go in the shovel. ''It's so obvious you guys like each other,'' he casually replied. ''I have no idea what you're talking about,'' Just because you deny it doesn't make it less true. ''Whatever,'' Lucas dismissed. He was going to bring it up later. He could

''What should we do to her?'' Lucas asked as he took slow menacing steps toward me. ''I don't know,'' Zack answered. He stroked his imaginary beard and thought deeply about different ways to torment me. ''Hey, I have a suggestion,'' I jumped in, ''Maybe we focus on the good part of this night,'' ''Oh yeah, and what is part is that? The time when you threatened to drown me or the time when your brother tried to blind me,'' Zack asked. He's so dramatic and for what? What does he gain? ''I didn't try to blind you and you were on my sister. I'm the one that's blind,'' ''So what? Why do you care about what we do?'' Zack asked. ''Because she's my sister,'' Lucas said as if it were the most obvious thing ever. ''Your sister, not your property. She's her own woman that can make her own decisions,'' Could have fooled me. I decided to sneak past them as they argued back and forth like little children. I felt like having another slice of cake and a glass of chocolate milk before bed.
