CHAPTER 27: Asking Another Favor
Last Updated:
2021-11-09 22:45:00IT’S been a week since that accident happened. The accident where Nathan sprained his ankle. But thankfully, he’s fine right now. I mean, he can’t still play basketball or any vigorous activities. So for now, he’s just focusing more on school and in the rehearsals of the drama club.
“Everyone! Pay attention! This is one of the biggest play that our drama club ever conducted. So I want you to focus on your roles and start memorizing your script,” our adviser stated.
“Yes, Ma’am.”
The members of the club suddenly walked towards the different directions, getting the copy of their script as they started memorizing their lines. Nathan and I sat down in the corner, me looking at his sprained ankle.
“Are you sure you’re alright now?” I asked.
“Uhm, yeah. I’m fine. Don’t worry. The doctor said that I can participate in this drama for I’m just sitting for the whole duration of the play.”

WE are now at the Cafeteria, eating lunch with the whole squad. Everything is normal, I guess. Becca is now talking to us and she’s even being kinder to me than before. I mean, this is what I wanted, right? Even if it was against Nathan and Scott’s plan, I decided to closed the deal between me and Becca and help her instead of Scott. I even quit in the drama club and decided to be just a normal student with no clubs being joined in. Thankfully, Nathan and Scott didn’t notice anything unusual about my recent action for they thought that I’m just being a lazy person as I was for not memorizing the script and quiting the play. I even anonymously recommended Becca to our adviser as an replacement to my role and as Nathan’s partner. “I have an announcement to make!” Becca squealed, tapping her glass using some stainless spoon. “What is it?” Scott asked, l

“WHAT do you mean?” he asked, confused. “Scott... I did this. I helped Becca get that role by quitting in the drama club... Even if I already promised you that Nathan and I will going to help you instead of Becca...” I trailed off. “What?!” he shouted, sounding furious as ever. “Now you just gave me enough reason never to trust anyone except myself.” He shook his head in disapproval, before walking away. As soon as he vanished into my sight, I cried. I cried a lot. This is all my fault. I shouldn’t have let Becca got that chance to be with Nathan. Now our squad and friendship were completely wrecked. I sat down at the corner, hugging my knees as I cried out loud. I don’t know what to do, and just thinking about being left out and alone again makes me really scared to the point that I don’t know if I could still face the world as same as before if ever that I loose everyone of my fri

RULE number twenty-four... Never fall in love with your bestfriend. Because love is overrated. It can cause some weird feelings and complicated scenarios in your life... For the lives of both people entangled with the situation. Aside from those life changing things that happened right after the confession, it could lead you into an awkward friendship... And worst, it could ruin your friendship itself. Love could only lead you into two different paths. First is the joyful one... Having a happily ever after right after the other one decided to confess to his or her friend that was secretly in love with them too and just keeping it to themselves for a long period of time. The second one is the tragic one. The one that can lead the both of you into having a broken friendship. And before you even know it, things had already change a lot and you two aren’t talking to ea

“HI, Nat.” “S-Scott...” I trailed off, stuttering by just saying his name. He sat down on the opposite side of the table, smiling at me from ear to ear. When I didn’t say another word, he took a deep breath, before doing anything. Actually, I’m not yet ready to talk to him. And besides, he suddenly came here so I’m literally unprepared. “Would you mind looking at me?” he asked, so I did looked up to him. I’m being shy for what I did and being hurt at the same time when I remembered what happened down the hallway of our school. Though I couldn’t even blame him for doing that to me. I mean, it’s my fault, I guess. So maybe I deserved it. “Look, Nat. I’m very sorry for screaming at you the last time... I shouldn’t have let anger get in the way of our friendship... And also, I shouldn’t have taken it out on you...” He tapped my hand on the table

THREE weeks before the official end of classes for this school year, and two weeks for the student council election day. Our schedule became a hectic one, and only now that I realized the real meaning behind of the word “busy.” Campaigning for the election and putting up the needed requirements for our finals wasn’t as easy as I thought before. I should have known better. I mean, if only I knew that our teachers are going to give us tons of homeworks and projects at the end of this quarter, then I shouldn’t have signed up for being a candidate in this coming election. But even so, I’m not regretting this decision. Scott, Nathan, and I are having a blast together, and I could say that we are enjoying the stress and pressure that this activity is causing into us. We never been so busy before, and testing ourselves to the limits is a good thing, I guess. It will

OUR adviser told us that before we ended this school year, we need to select our student council committee. Now that we are already sophomores, we could finally joined in the election and even participate in the campaign... If ever that we wanted to join. “Nat, would you like to join in the student council?” I asked to Nathan, while laying down on his bed. We are now in his room, just came home from school. Nathan is playing some video games on his computer, while I’m currently laying down on his bed doing apparently nothing at all. He looked at me after he heard my statement, before chuckling like what I’ve just told him is a crazy idea. “What?” I asked, confusedly. “Are you insane? Why would I like to join in the student council? I mean, being a member means having a huge responsibility...” “Not when you have someone to help you,” I stated, flashing a

TODAY is the last day of the campaign for the student council election. Later on, the candidates for the position of president will have their final speech before the election day tomorrow. Well, it was just Nathan and Freeda for no one wanted to join except of them. Maybe because of one main reason... They are afraid of Freeda. I’m glad that Scott and I pursued Nathan to build our own party list. If not, then Freeda’s whole group will win by default. “Are you ready?” Scott asked to my bestfriend. “Damn! I’m so nervous. I mean, why do I even joined in this activity? You two should be the one to talk on that stage later on,” Nathan complained. “Nat, don’t worry. We are just in the backstage if ever that you needed help. We are here to support you.” He sighed harshly, before picking up the remaining pieces of flyers on his desk. “Let us just roam around and distribute these to t

GREAT, now I have to endure school on my own. I feel betrayed, knowing that Nathan and Scott maybe talk to each other to be absent today. I mean, it’s literally election day and they chose to be gone. “Geez... I guess it’s just you and me again, my manual,” I whispered to myself. I walked down the hallway, waiting for the lection day to starts. I get into my classroom and waited for my turn to come. I mean, the previous committee will got five people from each classrooms to vote every ten minutes. They said that it would help them became as organized as possible and also, it will avoid being biased to the candidates of the election. As they called me out to vote in the chosen classroom where the election will be held, I felt anxious, knowing that people will saw me vote all of the members of my party list.

More like having another responsibilities but still, another journey where in we can proudly say that we survived high school, the most scary and unexpected part of our lives.“Ready? Come, I can’t wait to march and get my diploma on stage,” Nathan stated, before attempting to touch my hair.“Don’t! Do you know how many hours my Mom spent on my hair?” I asked him, and he chuckled.“You really wanted to look pretty, huh?”“Of course. This is the last time that we are going to see some of our classmates. Might as well leave a good impression on them.”“Whatever. You know that no matter what happens, you will always look beautiful for me,” he answered, before pinching my cheeks as he noticed that I am blushing. I p

“JUST follow me.” The two of us knocked on the door, before it swing opened, revealing my mother who immediately gave us a warm smile plastered on her face.“Hi, Nats. Why are you home so early? No celebration for the results of the exam, eh?”“Mom don’t listen to Nathan’s nonsense words,” warned her.“What are you talking about?”“This is not pure nonsense, Aunt. I’m here because I wanted to tell you something...”“And what is that, Nathan?”“I don’t want your daughter to be my best friend anymore. I want her to be more than that... I love your daughter, and I want her to be my girlfriend. So please, would you allow me to court her, please?” Nathan stated, making me and my mother gasped in shock.“You want my daughter to be your girlfriend?” my Mom asked him, and he immediately nodded, as

FEW days passed by. Today will be out final exam, yet I haven’t got the chance to talk to Nathan... Nor he ever did something to show signs that he wanted to spend some time with me as well... Alone. During our review sessions, I tried to act fine, knowing that the squad will keep on nagging us about our situation. But then, as time passes by, Nathan already realized that something is wrong, making him chase after me every single time that he will see me walking on the hallways of Jackson High. I tried my best to avoid him, but to no avail. He just keeps on following me, and I have no other choice but to talk to him just like what happened this morning.“Nat... Do you want us to have a great lunch together after the exams?” he asked me.“Uhm... Maybe. It depends how hard the exam is, Nathan.”“No endearment this time?” he asked me, and I shook my head in disapproval.“Nat is not an endear

WHEN the dance ended, the students came in circle around the bonfire, before the organizers have us two strings, one with the color of red and one with a color of blue. They wanted us to give the red color strings to the people we wanted to thank, and the blue one to the people we wanted to apologize to. The reflection began to start, and of course, Becca gave both of her strings to Scott, the same way that he did. Nathan and I chuckled to himself, watching the two of them nearly kiss. Nathan gave me his red string, while I gave him the blue one.“Thank you, Natalia. Thank you for being my best friend. And for not giving up on me. You made my high school so memorable.”“Aww... Here. Take my blue string. Sorry for everything. For not listening to you... For being too stubborn all the time. I’m always glad to have you as my best friend, Nathan.” He hugged me, and I di

TWO days passed by. We ran out of activities to do during our retreat, so the organizers decided to have a campfire night later on, during our last night in the retreat. Everything went fine, or so I thought. Because it seems like Freeda and her squad was unable to bully me became Nathan is always around, as well as Scott to Becca. I guess they will have to find a proper time to do something towards us.“Ready for the campfire later tonight? I heard that there will be dance and reflection in front of the bonfire later on,” Scott explained, sounding very excited.“Really? That would be great. Let us enjoy our last night together, alright?” Becca added, before taking a fries from my plate.“Well, seems like the two of you will be enjoying that bonfire activity later on,” Nathan mischievously answered, teasing them.“Let’s see. Maybe you will too, with Natalia.”“You&rsqu

AFTER we went home, Nathan left me in the doorstep without saying another word. I stood there, feeling sorry for myself because I didn’t even ask Nathan if he already forgive me or even thank him for taking me home. I sighed, before turning around to get inside. But just as I was about to, the door opened up.on it’s own, revealing my mother behind it who looked so surprised to see me.“Natalia... Dear, why are you home so late? It’s nearly six in the evening... We still have a dinner in your Aunt Jessica’s place.”“What?! In Nathan’s house?”“Yes. I forget to tell you about it yesterday. You two should spend some time together. So Jessica and I decided to have a sleepover there.”“But Mom...” I trailed off, thinking that she wouldn’t understand our complicated situation even if I try to explain it.“Come on. Just change your clothes and pa

“SCOTT! What happened? Have you two been captured as well?” I stood up, before asking him. The officers of the booth pushed them inside, together with us. Becca is frowning, as if she can’t believe that she needed to stay here with us.“Yes. I’m sorry for not answering your calls. I was about to follow Nathan to get the foils but then, those students catch me as if I’m doing something illegal.“Well, that’s how they go. Anyways, how long does we have to stay here?” Nathan asked the other students, and they chuckled.“Two hours at most, if you don’t have a friend to bail you out.” The four of us frowned, before sitting on the ground. We sat there, quietly. It felt awkward, being together again after a couple of months of being enemies with Becca. Scott tried calling some of his basketball teammates, and thankfully, one of them bail us ou

NATHAN came over my direction, glaring at me as if I was the one who did something wrong. I bit my lower lip, before wiping away my tears, not wanting him to see me being weak and vulnerable. After all, he is not my best friend anymore.“What’s your problem?!” he asked, as if questioning me.“Did you really come here just to ask me that?” I asked him back, my voice slightly breaking out.“Yes. You’re making a big deal out of picking colors for our booth. You are making me look like a bad person.”“Because you’re being one, Nathan! Why are you acting like a jerk all of the sudden? Is this because–”“This conversation is over.” He was about to walk away when I pulled his arm, not wanting him to go without finishing our conversation. He pulled his arms away from me, retrieving it while glaring upon my direction.
