159-Drugs And Helanie

I couldn't focus on Lucy anymore. My eyes were glued to Kaye and Kesha in the car together, and from the looks of it, they seemed pretty dressed up. A weird kind of coldness crept over my body—a coldness no embrace could wash away now.

"I'm going back inside," I whispered, not even raising my head anymore.

"Are you okay? Did I upset you?" Lucy asked. I stopped dead in my tracks. When I turned around, I saw her eyes widen, doubling in size as if she already knew I was about to be blunt with her.

"Stop worrying about what others think of you, Lucy. You can't live like that," I said, my tone harsh, my voice breaking under the sudden wave of pain and betrayal.
