The damned jealousy
By Wednesday, while we were all in class, I was able to see Gentil again and I don't think I would wish what I felt at that moment on anyone else.
I was getting into my car when I saw in the driveway in front of me the principal's car slowed down gently and as the back door opened Amarantha and then Gentil got out.
I couldn't help myself and started to honk my horn incessantly, she turned around and I changed the lights as I lowered the window glass and she came up to me and said
Hello, how are you?
In a very bad tone I asked her
Why are you coming in the director's car with that wretched Amaranta?
And she made an expression as if she was annoyed and answered
Oh no, Samantha, I'll be jealous with her again when you get over your anger we'll talk.
And she just turned around and went into the school and I put the car in and parked and went straight into the classroom and Gentil was still not in his place.
I was probably with Amarantha, a few minutes later she came in and didn't even look at me, the whole first hour of classes went by and I went to the dining room, I wasn't going to beg her either, but she came closer and sat down and I said to her
Can we talk?
As long as it's not to fight or argue
But you don't want me to argue for a day without hearing from you, not even a text or a phone call.
We agreed to stay away from each other for a while, you know that.
That implies that you become Amarantha's best friend.
Love you know that they can't link us, we already talked about it.
Well I don't think your strategy is a good one but I guess you're right.
She looked at me and said
Samy I love you and believe me it's become very hard for me to be without knowing about you and even harder for me to ignore you because sometimes I just want to jump on you and kiss you and let everyone know that you love me.
I asked her
Do you want to come with me to the bathroom
She smiled and got up just as April was coming so she stayed to guard the table while we went back.
Just as we were going to the bathroom a call came in and I could clearly see on her cell phone screen a call from Amarantha.
Immediately I told her
Answer it!
She said
Why if I am with you nothing is more important than that and she grabbed me by the waist but the phone rang again I took it from her and answered it I could hear it
Hi doll, I'll take you home after school.
I hung up and said to Gentil placing the phone tightly in her hand
So you already took her home and what else has happened?
Samy please don't start, I was already honest with you.
At that moment Amarantha comes in and stares at us and says with a wry smile
Ah no wonder you don't want to answer me
I immediately got annoyed and told her
What the hell do you want with Gentile you wretch
Amarantha turned around and looked at me with irony and said
Excuse me, is she something of yours for me to explain to you?
I approached her and said to her as I firmly put my index finger on her forehead
Careful with what you're putting in her head, I know what kind of bitch you are.
She slapped my hand hard and I immediately slapped her face and she came at me but Gentil stepped in and stopped her.
Calm down what's wrong with you?
Samantha she is not putting things in my head she just wants to be my friend just like you.
I answered
Oh my God, she has other intentions with you, I can tell.
Amarantha yelled at me
And if that's so what do you care
I went at her saying
Look you fucking bitch
And at that moment we heard a commotion coming from the dining room, we quickly went out to see what was going on and to everyone's surprise it was the same policemen, only they were taking Newtan away in handcuffs.
Gentile and I looked at each other
And deep down I knew that everything was on Newtan and that there would be no way to prove the contrary.
They were all whispering at the same time as they were shouting
Murderer to pay for his crime
Murderer
He looked at me and said
Cousin call my mom
I nervously ran to the table to get my phone and while I was dialing my aunt I ran to him as he was being taken away.
What happened Newtan?
I swear cousin I didn't do it
And I told the cops
Why are they taking him away?
The detective turned around and said
Call his parents he has an arrest warrant for the murder of jhos canol and the DA is charging him.
Apparently your cousin is not as innocent as you and everyone else describes him.
I went back to the table, my aunt wasn't answering.
I sat down Gentil was there and April was there too and it was April who asked
What happened because they are taking him like that?
I answered looking her in the eyes
Apparently he was the one who killed jhos the detective said that the prosecutor has evidence that accuse him as the mastermind of the murder.
Surprised Abril says
It's impossible that it was him
And Gentil also says
You are sure because Newtan doesn't seem to be so violent
They have proof Gentil strong evidence
Again the school day is suspended due to the amount of press outside the school the news of Newtan's supposed guilt appears in all the TV channels he is in the lead.
"They catch the young monster the killer of the lake walls."
I know Gentil was confused and may be wondering but how can they be convinced that Newtan is the culprit and what proof is there?
I wouldn't explain it to her either it was better that she didn't even know about the iron bar he put in Newtan's car or the text messages he sent her from jhos phone
