The Drone Lifted Me Up and Out of Her Life
When Steven Baxter, the heartthrob of the school, admits that he loves action movies the most, my childhood friend, Lisa Thornton, has my limbs strapped to four huge drones.
During the flag-raising ceremony on Monday morning, the drones lift me high up in the air in front of the entire school.
The students' laughter is deafeningly loud. The videos they take quickly go viral, too.
I only get to return to the surface once the drones finally run out of power and make their descent automatically.
With a wide grin on her face, Lisa unties me from the drones.
"Steven loves action movies, so we had you cosplay the main character from the most popular Tom Cruise movie.
"We grew up together since we were kids, Dominic. Surely you don't mind, right?"
As I sit on the ground, Steven pulls Lisa into his arms before he starts guffawing at me. Tears soon streak down his face from all the laughing.
"I can't believe you actually peed yourself!"
"Ahahahaha!"
I get up to my feet and walk away. From then on, I don't return to Lisa's side.
But Lisa soon loses her mind.
"We've known each other for ten years! Must you really do this to me?"
