Chapter 3

The next day, she rode her bike to school. She came so late that she did not even change her clothes. She pulled in, parked and turned off her bike. She walked inside to her locker.

Ronny was standing by her locker, hoping to catch a glimpse of her. As he saw her coming, he froze. She was wearing the same clothes as yesterday, but she looked beautiful.

He said, “Hi. How are you feeling?”

Her heart skipped a few beats when she saw him. She smiled and said, "Hey... I am sorry for yesterday..."

"No... Please... Don’t be... I am the one who is sorry... I did not want to hurt your feelings... Sorry I ran away.”

She looked at him, trying to get rid of this itch to kiss him. "Heh, i-its ok... We are in rival gangs..."

“No... It’s not like that… You remind me so much of her.”

She does a half-smile. "Sorry, I can't be her." She took off her jacket and put it in the locker. Ronny saw a weird tattoo by accident. She did not mean him to see it.
