Tasha's P. O. V I stomped out to the garden, ruffling my hair. My blood was boiling, and it was so hard to calm down. " I can't believe it!...." I muttered, puffing. " Calm down Tasha. Maybe Alex didn't mean it." Linda tried to say but I brushed her off. " What do you mean he didn't mean it? Of course he did. Didn't you see the way he looked at me? Like I was some idiot?" I said, glaring at her. Linda played with her hair, looking away. " Oh God..." I muttered, trailing off. This just gives me more reason to hate that Sylvia girl more. And I promise myself that I'll do everything I can to get back at her. Everything.... Sylvia's P. O. V Standing at the door of the Jones house, I took in a deep breath. I already told my mom about the babysitting job I got and so far she seemed cool with it. Let's see how today goes. Pressing on the doorbell, I waited for a reply. Soon the door opened and the maid I had met earlier appeared. " Hell

Patrick's P. O. VAfter some time waiting for the school to be slightly empty, I was on my way out of school when I heard a faint knock. Looking behind me, I realised there was no one behind me. Not thinking too much about it, I headed my way. It came again, this time a little fainter. Curious, I called out. " Is someone there?" No reply. I looked at the doors in the hallway. They were all closed. Surely this school isn't haunted, is it? Waving the thought off, I made to leave again, but something stopped me dead in the tracks. The nightmare I had came this morning came flashing through and my heart skipped a bit. Oh God, it better not be true. I turned back and started searching all the rooms. They were all empty till I got to the Janitor's closet, which was locked. I tried pushing, but it wouldn't budge. " Hello, is someone there?" I asked, knocking loudly. But who would lock it? The school isn't completely closed yet. Not taking it anymore, I forced the door open

Alex's POVArriving at school, I immediately went in search of Sylvia. I wanted to apologise on Tasha's behalf. I went around her classes but didn't find her.Maybe she's not in school today, I reasoned. I guess. Have to try another way, I thought to myself. On my way to my class, however, I bumped into Tasha."Hey..." she called out, but I didn't reply."You're ignoring me again? I said I'm sorry. You didn't even pick my calls. ""Tasha, I'm not in the mood for all of this. Can you just let me go? ""Not until I hear that you've forgiven me. " She stated. I scoffed and walked out. I'm not ready to deal with her yet.***A few hours later. In schoolPatrick's POVI was on my way to my next class when I overheard Tasha and her friends. I normally wouldn't pay attention to them, but I stopped when I heard them mention something about Sylvia. I slowed down my steps but made sure I was within earshot."She should have stayed longer in that place, I wonder how she got out... " Tasha said t

Sylvia's POV(Next day)After my mom confirmed it was all right for me to go back to school, I immediately hurried out. Even if I didn't like it that much, I'm glad to be away from the house for a couple of hours, not to mention the babysitting job I have this evening. Arriving at the school premises, I knew better than to expect warm welcome hugs and kisses. Why should I? I didn't have any friends. Not like I bother anyway, I headed up to my locker and began picking out my notes. On my way to my first class, I spotted Patrick in the hallway. Wanting to talk to him, I rushed towards him."Hey," I called out once I got to his side. He glanced at me and nodded."Hi." He muttered.Clearing my throat, I continued. " I wanted to thank you for visiting yesterday. No one has been kind enough to do that. ""You're welcome.""Plus, I wanted to ask. Did, by chance, Alex send you to me to offer me an apology on behalf of Tasha?"Patrick stopped walking and turned to me, surprise evident on his

Sylvia's POVI stared at Tasha, fighting for words. All in all, I was confused. How did she get to find out?"I was in the school of course. Where else would I be?" I said, even though it didn't ring true.Tasha clicked her tongue, rolling her eyes. " You think I believe you? For all I know, you're just another little liar! " She pointed out, scowling. I gulped nervously."I-I was in school... I-I swear." I stuttered, desperately looking for a way to convince her. If she tells on me, I'll be doomed.Tasha smiled. It was a sly one, the one that says she had me right where she wanted me and there was no escaping it."Let's see how you convince the principal and the entire board of how you were in school when you were not..." she muttered to my ear and just as she was about to leave, she got yanked back."What the hell...!?" she yelped out in pain. I looked up at the person who owned the hands and heaved a quick sigh of relief. It was no other than Alex."Hey! What are you doing?" She as
