From The Day By I Am They Novels & Stories

This is what you call a true friend. "Shut up, Day. Your boyfriend will kill me." I rolled my eyes, knowing well that Daya was a loyal person. Loyal in terms of relationships. She was more like a one-man type of girl, probably not like me. "Don't worry, I won't kill you, Amby," Daya's boyfriend, Kein, said to surprise us in between.

When I finally wake, it’s early afternoon. Today is Day 7, and I’ll never make it to Araphyra by Aolis’s deadline.

Same little bell above the door. Elliot and I used to come here after long Saturday prep days, back when he was still trying to build his reputation and I was still proud of how tired he looked because I thought exhaustion meant devotion. He would order black coffee. I would order cappuccino. We would sit by the window, share one pastry, and talk about the life we were sure we were earning. I stood outside for a moment. There was no ache in my chest, no sudden urge to turn away. Only a quiet recognition, like seeing a photograph from a life that no longer belonged to me.

The video call came to an abrupt halt. I stared at my reflection on the screen. It was staring back at me in disbelief. Now, I couldn't help but wonder whether it had actually happened, or whether I was hallucinating. Zoe Shamrock and I were childhood friends. I was still reeling from the sudden news, and my mind was wandering when Zoe popped up behind me and tapped my shoulder. "SAT's tomorrow, Seamus. You should be studying, not spacing out. You'll be sorry if you flunk it and don't get into Harland."

The memory burning. “I wish you'd just died that day when you were ten. I wish they never revived you.” And then there was what Daniela had said when she agreed to go out with him. "Adrian, you passed my test. Now I believe you're really over that deaf girl. You and me. A date." Every single sentence felt like a needle piercing straight through his chest, and the pain was bone-deep. Adrian's vision went dark, and his mind suddenly jumped to that day at the mall.

" What came after that was him stalling. He would not show up. He would not sign. He would not call. He clearly thought I was going to soften, and then I was going to come apologize. The longer I went silent, the more it broke him. The pile-on online got worse. I could not buy groceries without strangers giving me looks. Later, I figured out where the new wave was coming from. Maya and her squad of friends were running it. Mason knew. He looked the other way. He did call me, eventually. "Lara, you see now. I am the only one who can keep you safe.

"So, today is D-day." Damian’s lips curved slightly. "Shall we?" Without another word, the three of them walked toward the hospital entrance... * * *

I feel my shoulders sag and my gaze dips to the grass. “Hey, no sad faces right now. Today is about good stuff!” Amy says in her most chipper voice. Amy doesn’t do chipper very well, she’s the snarky, sarcastic sister. It’s kind of funny seeing her try so hard to cheer me up. I feel the corners of my mouth curling up into a small smile again. “There it is! There’s a smile!” she says in a cheesy voice, making me roll my eyes. “Vincenzo called me last night, saying you may want us to come for a visit,” Daya says as she takes a seat on a lounge chair, stretching her legs out and rubbing her belly as she lets out a big puff of air.

Everyone grouped together, awaiting the captain's words. "Alright! Day one of two this week! We got a short week, so let's make it intense. Remember to breathe and keep your pace consistent. GO! GO! GO!" Becca yelled and everyone took off, sprinting towards the track. Becca searched the crowd and spotted Demitri. She jogged up next to him and started taunting. "God, you're so slow!" Becca said, making Demitri's head turn. "Oh yeah?!" Demitri yelled and in a moment of spite, he ran ahead of Becca.
