A new day A new revelation

I walked in the school hallway the very next day of my mother's funeral in my loose blue tank top and some denim jeans. I had my hair up in a messy bun, but my hazel eyes were very much swollen from my crying the whole night. I had tried washing it off but that did almost nothing to support my present condition. So I just let it be.

"It would go away on it's own," I had murmured to my reflection in the mirror.

I stopped at my locker to pick my books and left my acceptance letter in the locker. I was still not sure whether I should go or not.

I, atleast had mom's memories here, and most of all Jason is here with me. I don't think I could live there alone right now.

I still had not heard anything from Jason and I have been trying to call him for quite a long time by now.

I sighed and picked up my books.

"Uhh," I heard a snicker from my left side, I let my gaze run over the person who had just done that to my obvious surprise it was queen bee, note the sarcasm.

I rolled my eyes and again started to move ahead when I heard her voice after me,

"I'm here to relay a message."

I looked over my shoulder, "I'm not interested in your stories. I'm busy if you excuse me."

"It's from Jason," I stopped dead in track.

She came slowly in front of me with a winning smirk on her face as if she had won something.

I tried analyzing her words, but she started herself."He says to stop calling him, he does not have any time for someone like you." She said victoriously.

I started at her suspiciously and gave a knowing smirk to her in return, when I recalled Jason's words.

"Don't believe whatever Marie says," he had said before going away.

"As if I'll believe you," I responded shaking my head.

"Huh," she huffed "But I have proof."

She said showing my a phone. I frowned when I looked at the phone.

"That's Jason's," she said flashing it in my face, I glared at her again as if asking her 'what did she mean?'

"He gave me that because he did not want any moth coming after him, he is not coming in the next week either. I'm going to him tomorrow morning, because he just won two matches in row and two more are remaining that I believe he will win as well. So he asked me to come there to celebrate it with him. Who knows how much he is missing us together," she stopped for a moment and added slowly as she moved to my right ear,  "and our kisses?" She said grinning ear to ear.

I didn't say anything not believing her words. I pushed her away and started to make my way to my class.

"If you don't believe me why don't you call him right now?" She shouted again.

"I don't need to do that to believe him." I answered nonchalantly.

"Just do it for God sake, " she whined coming to stand in front of me again.

I kept looking at her with a penetrating gaze, but she did not budge away from the spot so I said Sighing, "you would stop bothering me if I do?"

"Of course," she said taking the claimed Jason's phone in her right hand showing me the screen.

I dialed Jason's number from my phone and in seconds I heard a bell ringing right in my ears.

I watched as the phone in her right hand kept on ringing with my name on it as 'Alice with a small heart beside it.'

I hung up the phone at once, and again checked the caller's I'd I was calling it was Jason. I again tried calling the number and again the phone started ringing.

Confused I tried thinking of the reason, but could not come up with anything at the moment.

"You believe me now?" She smirked. I put on my stoic expression again and looked at her.

"You are showing me this because?" I inquired nonchalantly.

"Because if you are waiting for him and I think that's why you are calling him. Stop it. HE IS MINE." She yelled in my face.

I could not take it anymore so I started moving away from her trying not to cause any drama, because I simply could not handle it anyway.

  "Oh yeah, I forgot to tell you," She said as she again came near me , "The night he left for match, you remember right?" She asked. 

  I did not say anything as I could not comprehend what she was getting at.

  "It was pretty steamy," she winked as she pushed her hair back in a dramatic manner.

  I stood there frozen. I knew somehow that she was lying but all this was hurting me deep inside.

  I kept on clenching my fists trying not to hit anything and most specifically not That fuc**g Marrie's face.

I took in long breathes calming myself as I again started to move to my class.

I entered the class in a dejected way and spotted a seat at the end where teacher would not be able to see me. So I placed my bag beside the chair and sat down on it with my register on my table to take notes.

Mr. Jones came in the class and started giving Ap. Physics lecture. I did not bother to look at the board or to hear anything he was saying I was already ahead in the subject myself, so it was not much of the bother.

The thing bothering was that, was Jason really with Marie again?

Was he playing with me again?

Is his father going to set him with Marie again?

I shook my head when I felt tears in my eyes again.

"Stop coming, it is enough." I said irritated and wiping the tears those were coming out of the corner of my eyes.

"You are strong." Mom's words resonated in my ears again. I closed my eyes to recover myself.

"Okay, class that would be your assignment for today." Mr. Jones said closing the book he had opened on his dice.

I opened my eyes and came out of my mind to find that class was already finished and Mr. Jones had already gone.

I was one of the few students who were still sitting in the class.

I grabbed my bag and put the stationary in it again. Sighing I moved out of the class.

I was walking to the class when I saw the billboard it had a news that our class was skipped due to some technical problems.

"That means one more session of internal conflicts." I told myself sarcastically.

I was walking to the gardens where I usually sit for alone time. When I heard my phone ringing in my hand.

Might be Jason from someone else's phone? My conscience gushed.

' I hope it will be,' I thought to myself before looking at the phone to see the Callers I'd.

But life does not fulfills every thought and wish you have, now does it ?
