Chapter 9
Zoe Gomez's Point of View
Oh gosh, where is he?
[Phone rings]
"Hello-"
"Sorry Zoe, I can't make it to the beach with you today, But don't worry bubble head, Kelly is going with you, she has her car."
"Hey Zoe!" I saw Kelly waves as she gets out of her car, so I waved back as I'm holding my phone and puts my phone back to my ears.
"Nico why?"
"I will tell you after weeks"
"Oh okay"
"Hang up the phone, Zoelite"
Yeah, he wants me to hang up first.
As I ended the call, I hold my phone to my chest for a second.
"You okay?" Kelly
I nodded.
"You're inlove with him, aren't you?"
"What? No, he's only my best friend"
I said as I get in her car.
"Eyes don't lie, Zoe."
Wondering why Kelly and I seem like not a best friend goals? I wondered that too.
As we grow, they gained, learned and changed.
It's not like we hate each other, or doesn't like each other.
It's a feeling that we can't be like that again, like what happened in the past.
[Flashback]
When we're in junior high school, we're so close like a sister. She helps me beating every person who dared to bully me.
After a fight, we stay all night at her house without her parents knowing.
And the hardest part? My Dad died for searching me that night, my Mom told me I'm grounded.
My mom got depressed, but she never said she blamed me for my father's death, and I never blame Kelly. but who blamed me? Nothing but myself.
Kelly cried and she was sorry.
Months passed,
"Zoe, I have a crush. Please don't tell anyone"
Then she tells her crush to everyone
"Zoe, Let's make a dance cover video!"
and we dance like crazy back then.
"Umm, Zoe? I think we're bad at dancing, let's try singing!"
We sing wildly there at public karaoke, it makes people laugh.
"W-T-F People say we're awesome, Zoe!
O-M-G" Kelly
Sometimes, we hurt each other by judging each other's appearance and It takes 3 lonely days to make our friendship back.
I always apologized before her. Then she will hug me, and she'll cry saying she's sorry.
[End of flashback]
But as we grow old, she focuses more on studying. But does she realize that she's losing someone? I mean, It's not like I don't want her to focus more on her studies but--
Nevermind, it's for her parent's happiness, and it's for herself to be better.
"We're here"
I don't know why, but until 5:30 pm we never talk anything. We're just sitting here for hours while enjoying the sunset.
"Zoe, I miss you"
I turned my head to her.
[Now playing Gift of a friend by Demi lovato]
Sometimes you think you'll be fine by yourself
"You know"
'Cause a dream is a wish you make all alone
"I never forget how crazy it is back then"
Its easy to feel like you don't need help
But its harder to walk on your own
"I'm sorry"
You'll change
Inside
When you
Realize
"That I messed up everything in your life"
The world comes to life
"Your dad died"
"No, kelly-"
And everything's bright
"Why do you forgive people easily?"
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
"You must have hate me"
By your side
That helps you to find
"I will never hate you, Kelly"
The beauty of all
When you'll open your heart and
Believe in
The gift of a friend
The gift of a friend
Kelly cried and apologizes as she holds Zoe's arms.
"I'm so sorry Zoe, because of me your father died because I let you stay at my house all night, because I want you to be by my side that time. But as I grew up, the more I think of you the more I blamed myself, I couldn't just get over it. How thicky my face is for causing your Father's death and let this friendship end."
Someone who knows when your lost and your scared
There through the highs and the lows
Someone you can count on, someone who cares
Besides you where ever you go
"Kelly" I said as I hold her hands, helping her to stop crying, but she couldn't
"Kelly, I never blame you, not even 1%."
"You didn't kill him, and it was an accident car crash, okay?"
You'll change inside
When you
Realize
The world comes to life
After that she hugged me as she pained cry
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty of all
When you'll open your heart and
Believe in
The gift of a friend
"I miss you too, Kelly" I said and I hugged her tight
And when your hope crashes down
Shattering to the ground
You'll, you'll feel all alone
When you don't know which way to go
And there's no signs leading you home
You're not alone
Until my tears, fell down.
The world comes to life
And everything's bright
From beginning to end
When you have a friend
By your side
That helps you to find
The beauty of all
When you'll open your heart and
Believe in
When you believe in
You can believe in
After I wiped her tears,
"Is this the reason why, our friendship turned like this?"
She nodded
So, It's not all about the study?
"I'm sorry that it took me years to realized that I was the cause of your father's dea---"
"Kelly, I told you It's not your fault okay?
I told you it was an accident car crash"
She nodded as she smiled a little
"Kelly, thank you for keeping our friendship back"
"Yeah, Thank you" she smiled
"Oh Zoe! By the way! O-M-G! You know Santino right?"
Oh man, when did he know about, Santino?
"No"
"Oh I know you do! And what about those bouquet foods thingy huh?" She said as she feels butterfly in her stomach.
"Wait-! How did you know?"
"Umm, from your mom?"
Argh! Mom stop investigating me!!!
