Novel & Cerita Friday Night Lights Lyla Garrity

I closed my eyes and tried concentrating on stopping my tears. Then her voice broke and it almost faded. "Your parents were like my children. Oh, Jacob and Corina, why did this happen to them?" She started sobbing hard, and I was just looking down. "Oh, my good sweet children," she wept. Ms. Lili is the owner of the few houses in the neighborhood. She visits each house everyday but she frequently stays in our home. She loves talking to my hilarious father and she loves gossiping with my Asian mother. She would give us different gifts, whether frames, food, and other things, and I know that she's genuinely in pain due to what happened.

I tried to push the horrible event from my mind, but the memory lingers on, reminding me that even seemingly harmless dares can have sinister consequences. But, minutes later as if ruining the conversations that was filling the hallways and classrooms through the ancient stone hallways, a stern voice came over the loudspeaker, "This is Ms. Rose Elleanor Stowne, speaking. Students of both houses, the Stonemaskers and Wanderlusters I want you to be aware that my voice had taken over our morning rituals as I have to make a tragic announcement this day. At exactly past midnight yesterday, one of our own, Lilian Graywood, student #011 from the Honors Wanderlusters, passed away."

Then after a short moment of silence, after Lyra took a look at her hand, she fell to the floor and passed out. Suddenly, there was a glow, a strange light that radiated around her. I forced my feet to move, and finally I was able to. I ran to Lyra’s side immediately and picked her up from the ground into my arms. Her eyes fluttered open for a second. “Lyra,” I whispered in surprise. She wasn't looking like the Lyra I knew. Her eyes were different. They had a strange golden glow, and Iris grew bigger. Then her eyes closed once more.

Instead of joining the line, we cut through to the back to get food directly from the kitchen—one of the perks of having the lunch lady crushing on your brother. We joined Poppy, Elodie, and Trevor at their table. We aren't exactly close with them, even though Poppy is a She-Lycan and Elodie is our friend’s mate but with Max here, maybe we could all actually be friends. “Max, so, I was thinking,” Poppy said as we ate, winking at me. “Since I’ve been too busy to teach you how to ice skate, why not ask Johnny to teach you?” Jackpot. Poppy was helping me.

He said slamming the door shut in my face before I could even say anything. Yeah, typical Stephen, he was a dickhead, always trying to annoy me relentlessly. I stood in front of the door still reeling from the shock of the door he slammed in my face when he opened the door again. “What do you want, Lana, it's 5am in the freaking morning.” I pushed past him into the apartment. “I don't care about your beauty sleep Stephen, is Kayla at home?” “Kayla? Aren't you two like, working the late night shift? She'll be here soon.”

I remembered seeing Cole and Ria, and after that. Nothing. Nothing at all. Cold fear crawled up my spine. This... This wasn't right. Someone had done this. Someone had... My thoughts were interrupted by slow clapping. I looked up. Ria stepped through the crowd with a triumphant smile spread across her face. She looked as though she'd been waiting her entire life for this moment. "Well..." She said loudly enough for everyone to hear. "Our little innocent Lilith is finally awake." No one defended me, no one shunned her, if anything, they jeered her up.

Bright blue and red lights danced across Lylah's face, making her cringe. She waved her hands in front of her eyes, her irritation palpable. Her bare feet dangled from the stool as she sat her drink on the bar counter. "Love," she giggled, the sound laced with a hint of sarcasm. Her hands trembled slightly as she rummaged through her black purse for the lighter. But her eyes lingered on the inscription on the lighter: "Princess."

"Let's talk." Lyla stood there, her figure framed by the dim light filtering through the curtains. The room was quiet, the air thick with unspoken words. I watched her, her nervous fidgeting a stark contrast to her usual confidence. Her hands absent-mindedly traced the hem of her shirt, playing with the loose thread she often complained about. Her gaze flitted around the room, avoiding mine like it held an accusation she wasn't ready to face.

Her caramel smooth skin, shining along with the candles that was suddenly lit up. Lyla walked away from the candles and went to the girl. "Stand up dear" she helped her up. The sleeping lady sleepily murmured something as she lightened up herself a little so Lyla could help her up. "He's coming, he's coming. He will hurt me" she continues to murmur as a lone tear ran down her cheeks. "He won't do anything on you. Don't worry okay. I'm here" Lyla consoled her as she lay her gently on the bed. Lyla went to the table she had dropped a tray, filled with different dishes.

Rashid We stood in silence, the only sound around us was the AC kicking on above us, drowning out the noise of my beating heart. Lyla was tucking in a thin jacket, the front of it parted and open to show the loose-fitted t-shirt she was wearing underneath. She had sweatpants on and rubber shoes that were a bright and obnoxious yellow color. Gone was the glamorous woman I'd seen earlier this evening and here was the woman I'd fallen in love with over the course of a maddening two weeks.
