Amelia POV
I wake up early today and still the memories of past haunt me even today and it's something I'm not able to forget...
Everyone tried their best to help me to forget him but it's really difficult to forget someone special as him.
He was happiness of my life and the way he smiled whenever I told him about my day is something that I can't forget in this life..
My day started with his good morning and ended with his good night 🙂
I used to fall asleep and he listened to my heavy breathe while I slept with dream and feeling that he hugged me & I'm in his arms wrapped around me, pulling me close to his chest...
I want to again feel this moment of life.
"***Michael**" I want you back.....I want to feel the warmth of your chest again*....
Those memories still wet my pillow but why does he f..king care. Who cares about me? No one..
I got up from bed. I turned on the shower,but even the cold water can't calm me down....
I hate looking in these damn mirror which always reflect my body....I hate myself
I got out from shower dressed in a tank top and fitted jeans which shows my curve.
I packed my bag for school and headed downstairs
Mom had already left for her work
I saw Dad sitting on dinning table with his laptop
He's always busy with his work, never really had time to spend with us.
But I love him. I always loved him for his struggle for us. I gave him hug and took a sandwich. I headed towards my friend's house.
After Michael and I broke up,my best friend "Lily" doesn't talk to me anymore just because I broke her brother's heart. But she didn't even know how much I had hurt myself since that day. She just left and didn't even give a chance to explain.
But I don't have time to think about that.
I'm already late for school.
(I saw Amber waiting for me.)
Amber: you are late again
Me: sorry I wasn't feeling well today.
Amber: Are you okay now??
Me: Yea.. I was just having a little headache. But it will be over in no time.
Amber: okay, You didn't sleep well? But you seemed all right yesterday.
Me: Yeah! Had a bad dream
Amber: Don't tell me you are thinking about Michael again
Me: Amm..
Amber: I have told you he's a lier. He broke your heart and you are still thinking about him and had promised me to move on from him.
Me: I tried but it's hard to move on. I can't forget about him. His words...how he used to care about me and....
(Amber intrupted me)
Amber: Ashley is throwing a party tonight and you are coming there with me. You know my Mom will never allow me to go to late night parties and stay over. So, if you are coming along then she won't complain. We are childhood friend & she trusts you more than she trusts me. So you are coming there with me right!?? We'll go for shopping after school. Okay? Sarah are you listening?
Me: Of course, I'm listening and I'll come there but at one condition that you won't try to set me up with any guy. I'm not ready for any relationship yet.
Amber: ok I accept that condition.
( Amber rolled her eyes. She always does whenever I ask her to not to try to set me up with any guy)
(We didn't even realize when we reached school. But now we have to part away from each other Coz her locker is on second floor and mine is on ground floor.)
Me: Bye Amber see ya in English
( we only have three classes together English, Art and Mathematics)
Amber: see ya
I opened my locker look at my schedule and stuff my books in locker and took out my Chemistry notebook and file ( Coz we have chemistry practical today) First class will be very hard for me Coz Lily and I share this class. I can't really handle how she looks at me.
*Lily's locker is 5th locker from mine on right side.
She is coming towards me.
But why on this whole earth she is coming towards me. She must be passing by , I am overthinking it.
But our class is on 1st floor and stairs and lift both are in opposite direction from our locker*.
Lily: Mia!
Me: Yes
Lily: We need to talk!
IN THE BACKSIDE OF SCHOOL. OLD CLASSROOMS.
Amelia POV
(What happened? Why she needs to talk to me? I don't think she's here to say sorry. As far as I know she will never let her ego go. So did I.)
Me: What happened…? Why you drag me here??!!
Lily: AMM...!
Me: What!!!
(I'm being restless. I need to calm myself. Mia clammed down. She won't swallow me right!! Calm down)
Lily: I need to ask you a favor...!
Me: What kind of favor…!?
Lily: AMM…! Don't get me wrong!
(Lily used to be too confident. What happened to her now that she's out of words…!?)
Me: Okay! You know I don't have patience. So say it out quickly. I have class to attend.
Lily: Don't tell me you want to attend Chemistry class…!
Me: Of course! I want to attend! What's your problem...?!
Lily: I know you very clearly. I know how much you like chemistry 🙄.!
Me: Are you here to mock at me…!😒
Lily: Okay!.! I want to ask you a question first.?
Me: I thought you were here for a favor…!
Lily: Answer the question first!! Are you going to Ashley's party…??
Me: Don't know. I haven't decided yet but maybe I can go.
Lily: You can't go!!!!!
Me: Why.!?
Lily: It's just that you can't go!!!
(I have a bad habit whenever anyone forbid me from doing anything. I take it as a challenge. And specially do that.)
Me: If you say so...! I'll definitely go! 🤭
Lily: It's not a joke!! I won't talk you forever. If you go there.!!!
({Frown} You don't talk to me anyway.)
Me (with a straight face): You forget that we already don't talk!!! We're not friends anymore so don't threaten me with these words.!!
Lily (rubs her head): Alright!! It's my request to you please don't go to Ashley's Party.!! 🙏
Me: Let me think about that first. I'll tell you when I make up my mind. See ya!
(Lily holds my hand)
Lily : I told you not to go!! It means you can't go!!
Me: You are no one to make any decisions for me!!! Better understand that Lily!!! Otherwise, you know what can I do!!!
(Remove her hand harshly)
Lily: Mia! You don't understand!!!
(Someone is coming. Sound of footsteps.)
Me: Someone is coming I need to go, or we both will be screwed!.!
(Lily again holds my hand)
Lily: You can't go! Give my answer first!!!!
(Footsteps are getting faster and closer)
Me: Lily! Let go of me!
Lily: I won't first give my answer.!
Someone: She will go!! Let her go otherwise be ready to being expelled!!
(This voice is familiar. Who is she.?! Turns back)
Me: Tina !!! What are you doing here.!?
Tina: I should ask you the same question!!
Me: UMM…!
Tina: I came to find you because you were not in the class.
Amelia POV
Me: Then you will also get punishment like us.
Tina: You'll not get any punishment. Don't worry.
Me (Happy): Wow really!!
Tina: I told teacher that you suddenly became sick so LILY is taking care of yours. Because nurse is absent today.
(I hugged Tina in happiness)
Me: You are best!!! 😘
Tina: Alright! But remember to pretend that you are really sick !
Me: Okay
(Lily clears her throat)
Tina: And you!! It will be better for you if you don't interfere in her life again.!!
Lily: It's not your problem what I do to her!!
(I feel bad by listening to her reply)
Me: It is!!! Because she is my best friend!
(Lily looks sad I think)
Lily: Yeah! You both suit each other. One had stolen my boyfriend and other is going to do same!!!
(I tried to hold my anger)
Me: We have nothing to do with you!!! Kevin had dumped you because of his own reasons. It has nothing to do with us.!!
Tina: You are Jealous that he choose me not you!!
(Tina started to cry. She is really serious about Kevin{I hope he is also serious}. And can't handle any bad comments about her relationship)
Lily: Amelia! I'm warning you if I see you anywhere near JOSH. I won't let you enjoy your last year of high school! You better understand that.
(I can't hold my anger now)
Me: It's your problem that you can't control your boyfriend. And they always dump you anyway. If you want them not to go after girls then change yourself!!!
(I think I said too much)
Lily (Tears in her eyes): I never expected that you'll say anything like this.!!!
(She run away * crying*)
Me (whispers) : I also didn't think that I'll hurt you this much.! (A tear slips from my eye)
(Tina holds my hand)
Tina: forget about her. She will never change.
Me: I don't want her to change! I just wanted her to listen to me!.!
(Tina rubs my back)
Me: I'm Okay Tina! (I give her a fake smile)
(Tina hugs me)
Tina: I know you're not!
(I hugged back)
Me: Thanks Tina.
Tina: We are friends. Don't thank me!
(Someone pat on my shoulder)
Me (Turns back): Who-...? Em, What are you doing here?
(I saw Em and Lana standing there)
Emily: My teacher is absent, so I was wandering around.
Tina: Lucky girl! 😒
Emily: What are you both doing here?
Me: We...? Long story.
Emily: Then tell me in short.
Me: Okay!
(I explained what happened skipping the favor part)
Emily: So, this happened.
Me: Yeah
Lana: Where you find that b**** ? She is so rude.
Me: Lana! Watch Your mouth!!!
(I don't know why but I can't hear anything bad about her.)
Lana: Okay! 🙄
Emily: Calm down Mia.
Lana: After seeing your reaction. Now I'm more interested in knowing how you met Lily and become this close to her. And what happened that you both don't talk to each other.
Me: I'll tell you later.
Lana: Tell me now!
Me: But...
Tina: You can tell her now.
(I remembered that I'm sick in teacher's eye)
Me: Okay! Then I'll tell you now.
(Everyone listening carefully)
