I have been sitting in lunch alone since Tuesday after my fight with Alex. Cole sat here sometimes and Shawn sat with me too but it was only for a minute so I'm basically alone like I have always wanted. Then why do I feel so bad and lonely.
I spot Alex as she entered the lunch room too, her face was down as she looked around for where to sit. She spots me and smiled before walking towards me. I'm confused but I smile back. As if she just got a hang of herself, she stops and the smile on her face fades as she walks away from my direction.She misses me too. I watch her go and soon she was sitting at our usual table alone, picking on her food. Okay okay I can't do this anymoreI get up with full force and then march to our table with my food. I dropped my food on the table and she looks up with surprise." what are you doing here ? " that's the first thing she has said to me since our fight." I..I..I " I stammered and just stared at her." hi " I said plainly" don't bug her dork " Alex said as she hit Ralph's head with her phone." what the fuck " Ralph growled and I found myself smiling and trying to hold a laugher." what's that ? " he turned to me angrily" nothing " I whispered." I will be back Betty. I will just get snacks and then we can go off to my room " she said walking away from the sitting room. Leaving me and Ralph alone." okay " I nodded and sat on the arm rest with my phone in my hand. I didn't know what to do so I just stared at the television not even understanding what's going on." hey " my head turns abruptly to look at Ralph " why are you guys not in school " he asked while munching on pop cornI don't know which I'm more focused on. His lips or his question" nothing " I muttered.. He stared at me for a while before looking away" okay " he muttered. And I looked at the TV again.
" hey " I opened my eyes to see Alex smiling widely at me. I rubbed my forehead as I sat up on the bed." where am I ? " I asked her" my house " she said " your house ? .. What am " Suddenly everything came crawling back to me . from the lunch room to leaving the school to how I told Alex everything. " its fine Betty. I told you earlier, I love you and I'm not letting you go " she said and smiled" you sound like my mum " I said and smiled at her too." maybe I am " she said" eww " I scrunched my nose up in disgust before she hit me with her pillow and soon our laughter filled the room. She still loved me. She still wanted to be my friend. Wait what is the time" what time is it ? " I asked her. She picked up her phone" its almost eight " she answered and I screeched" what the fuck " she answered and I smiled and remembered Dena saying that exact statement."
" see you on Monday " I said as I got down from Alex's car with my bag on my shoulder." okay then.. But text me about the date " she said. I frowned" its not a date and we are not even friends " I answered her." you will be soon. " she said smirking at me." okay then.. Bye " I said" say hi to your mum for me and wear something hot on your date " she said and then drove away.You better run away dummyI walked inside my house after picking the key under the pot in front of the house. Every where was silent and I suddenly miss Alex all over again.I walked up to my room and got out of my clothes quickly before going into the bathroom... After taking my bath, I got out of the shower and cleaned my body before putting on a black joggers, a white hoodie and a back converse to match. I put on lip gloss and then decided to leave my hair down in its natural curly waves after brushing i
ADAM:" Hey what's the emer.." I started as I opened the door to the house, only to be shocked at the sight. Every where was messy with broken glasses at every single angle, pieces of cups and plates and everything else. The chairs were turned over in a disarranging manner and even foam was on the floor.What the hell went on here ?" Cheryl... Cheryl " I yelled as I tried to walk around without stepping on anything that would cause a cut it bruise. " Cheryl " I yelled and climbed the stairs to mum's room. As I opened the door, my heart beat stopped, my eyes full of unshed tears, my brain wasn't placing what I saw. I pushed through the door and ran inside" Adam " Cheryl said with a sob as the tears fall from her eyes. On the floor in the middle of the room was mum in a pool of blood, her blood and Cheryl kneeling beside her crying with her hands stained with blood." Adam " she called out again with a chokin
As I took my seat in english class during third period, I couldn't help but look around in search for Adam because he wasn't in this class again just like he wasn't in literature or calculus too and yes he has almost all of my classes with me. Thankfully Mr Mike our english language teacher wasn't around yet.Not that I have gone over my lines, not that I am even prepared for the presentation. Trust me william shakespeare's english is so old and it's not easy to know which is which. And Adam is meant to be here because we are supposed to be going over our lines together like everyone in class was doing now. Some odd people even went far in the sense that they were dressed like people on the covers of their books. They are just trying to show off." Good morning my honourable students. How was the weekend like for you guys " Mr Mike said with a broad smile. " Oh I see people dressed like shakespeare's " he said and chuckled and we all had a share
As soon as I walked into the lunch room, I sight Alex sitting at our favorite spot, a smile on her face as she taps away on her phone. I could see two lunch trays on the table meaning she ordered for me too. That's why I love her..I'm happy that our fight is over and I feel better now that she also knows about Dena but I still miss her from time to time. Maybe mum is right, maybe it's time that I let go of the past. Maybe it's time that I stop blaming myself, maybe it's time that I move on." Betty! " Alex yelled from our table as she waved her hands in the air like a crazy fellow. I grinned and walked up to our table hurriedly." Hi pretty best friend " I said as I sit beside her then drop my bag where she dropped her bag, in front of us. We are very well known in the cafeteria already. It's either we are yelling, meaning Alex is yelling or we are fan girling, meaning Alex in fan girling which also means more yelling but with squeaking like a rat. I'm th
" I'm sorry " I whispered still touching her face as she snores quietly." I'm really sorry. I should have been more responsible. " I whispered in between the tears in my throat." If only I was there. I'd have been able to protect you guys. I'm sorry Cheryl " I said again as I touched her forehead.The door opened and the doctor who had attended to us the day before came inside the room and closed the door." Good morning Mr Rivers " he said and smiled." Good morning " I said and snif before getting up from the floor where I knelt down beside Cheryl. I wiped my eyes and got closer to him." May I have a word with you outside ? " He asked me " Uhmm yes " I said and scratch my head in curiously. I wonder what he had to say to me that he couldn't say inside. " So how is my mother ? " I asked him as we stepped outside, I shut the door." Well there aren't many things to say " he said " What do
ELIZABETH:" So how long does this take ? " I watched mum pace around the kitchen with an apron around her neck. These days she is very busy because the business is planning to open another branch in another country." Two weeks is too much. " She answered and then sighed. She looked so tired and she wasn't even getting enough sleep. At least my nightmares have reduced or else mum would be more stressed " I guarantee you that it will be a success. We can try to hurry the process and end it in a week " she said still pacing around the kitchen." Yes sir.. okay sir. " She said and looked at me. I gave her a small smile which she returned back." No problem sir. I will have to speak to my daughter about it " she said stretching the last sentence as she stared at me again. She put the phone down and then brings the box of pizza we had ordered earlier to the dinner table. She gives me a slice, takes a slice and then sits at the tabl
