Grape Ice

As time went by and evening bell rang, Martha turned to Lorries seat, but she wasn't there as well as Sherley. Martha shrugged and packed her bag, when she saw her sister waiting for her.

Scarlett was a year elder than Martha and yes they were in same school. Scarlett never tries to disappoint her sister, but she did that morning. As soon as Martha saw her sister she rushed to the door.

"Are you waiting for a long while? " Martha asked as she pouted at her sister.

"Don't pout at me. I had an assignment today. We'll come to school together tomorrow." Scarlett tried to please her. But Martha wasn't that easy.

"Compensate me. " Martha demanded.

"I didn't injure you. " Scarlett was straightforward.

"You did. You injured my heart. " Martha said as she landed her palm on her chest and started a drama.

"You didn't wait for me. But I did everytime. Huh... you don't love me at all. My heart hurts..You are the reason my heart hurts.. sniff.. sniff. " Marta started crocodile tears.

Scarlett cried without tears. 'Arghh. Drama queen's at it again.'

"Ughh... I get it!!! What do you wan-" Martha didn't even give her time to finish her words.

"Ice cream!! " Martha bawled.

"I get it. Now let's move already. My legs are going numb" Scarlett moved forward as she pushed her sister.

They left the school and as promised they were on the way for ice cream.

"Scarl, Do you have a boyfriend?? " Martha expressed her doubt.

"What's going on in your muddy brain? " Scarlett was irked with Martha.

"You remember Sherley, right? She had a boyfriend. And now she even wants to break with him. " Martha said it out loud.

"What's the matter. Why are you looking so astonished? "

"She didn't even mention to me, even once.." Martha seemed dejected even though Shreley didn't consider her that close.

"Didn't you ask me ice cream?? We're crossing the shop. " Scarlett tried to divert her dejected sister with her weakness.

"Ice cream!!! Come on. Let's go back.!!! " Martha easily got diverted, Scarlett ruffled her hair as she smiled and they moved back to the shop.

"Boss I want 2 Chocolate Ice creams, 1 butterscotch Ice cream and 1 grape ice...." Martha was about to list out her likings.

"Are you going to sell properties??" Scarlett averted her sister and turned her form towards the shop.

"Boss We want a grape ice and a chocolate cone. " Scarlett glanced at pouted Martha as she smiled at her.

...

Martha ripped the grape ice and about to lick it when suddenly a hand dragged the ice in her hand. Martha was left flabbergasted as she stared at the hand which was with ice-cream a second ago. She turned her gaze to the one who took her life from her and her eyes widened.

A guy, taller than her, eyed on her with his silver eyes. She could tell that the person was a guy and she looked at the face..

"Let me take this, Little girl" was all the boy said and he rushed back.

Martha was muffled the whole time that before she knew the boy already left hastily. She didn't even lowed her hand which was in shape of holding. Her lips turned agape and the one behind her patted her left shoulder.

"He left already, you know!! " Scarlett let Martha gasp the moment.

"MY ICE CREAM" Martha cried out.

"HOW THE HELL DARE YOU TAKE MY ICE CREAM!!!! COME BACK!!! I'll SPANK YOU.. YOU DUMBASS" Martha shouted as everyone beside her started to look at her like she was a weirdo stood in the middle of the ocean.

"Shh Martha!!! It's just an ice cream. We can buy it again. " Scarlett tried to calm her, but Martha doesn't seem to be influenced by her words.

She walked to the shop with noisy thuds. Once she reached the shop she slammed her hands on to the desk and as she yelled at the shopkeeper.

"GIVE ME ANOTHER GRAPE ICE!!!"

"So... Sorry That was the la.. last one" The shopkeeper stammered as he looked at her.

Martha was dumbstruck and then

"Uwahhh!!!!! Scarlett I hate you!! "

It was just a ice cream but she felt that was her treasure that was only could be taken by her. When she lost her treasure, she collapsed into tears. This kid who popped at the sudden rate might replace that ice cream into beautiful memories in her life. No one could expect what happens until they experience it.

Martha was sure to write this in her diary.

'4th June 20XX,

Today was the first day of my School of this year. Scarlett left me alone today's morning. So I had to go to school alone today. I was late to my class. I learnt a shocking truth about Sherley that she has a boyfriend and she even wants to break up with him. There was a new girl called Tessa. She was damn adorable and I can't wait to get along with her. Scarlett said she would buy me a ice cream as a sorry that she left me in the morning. But before I brought my treasure into my Pandora box... I met a dumbass who took my treasure away from me. I curse him. '
