Ashley walked into her room and sighed angrily, she loosen her hair from the bun and change her cloth into comfortable wear, she lay in her bed and thought about what Hayden said. Is she really that lazy and don't worth anything good?

“He couldn't even apologize.” She muttered and hugged her stuffed bear tightly, a tear rolled down her eyes and she sniffed, slowly it turned to whimpers.

She slowly sat up on her bed and turned to see who she least expect sitting beside her, she screamed and rolled off the bed in fear.

“Ouch, that must have hurt right?” Hayden asked and she sighed angrily, she stood up and threw her stuffed bear at him. He caught it and stared at it.

“The bear actually did nothing wrong.” Hayden said and she glared at him before sitting on the bed.

“What are you doing here? Are you here to insult me again and make me feel less of a human?” She asked angrily.
