7. Resumption Day

Waking up the next day with anger on my face. I believe he sees me as his sister. How could he. Karen,I scolded myself he's a wack. Boys are wack. I had my bath and headed downstairs.

I ate and didn't bother looking at Dave.

Karen,I will like us to go the cinemas,you know have a family time together.

Dad,I'm not going. I want to stay indoors.

Why,mom questioned. You love movies.

Mom,I'm kinda tired.

Okay, we'll go without you. Don't get too bored.

I won't. I can't believe he's watching a movie with them. Dave is such a wack.

Night came and they went to watch their movie. I'm bored and I'm missing Dave. No,I scolded myself,you can't miss who doesn't even care about you. I drew a broken heart. I cried silently. Why am I in love with someone who's not in love with me. I slept off burying my head under my pillows.

Days passed really fast. We'll soon resume school. I can hear mom's voice. I guess they came home yesterday.

Karen,I scolded myself,you need to focus on yourself and the upcoming term. We'll be choosing our college.

Michelle came to visit me. She's so funny. She's now Jack's girlfriend and they are going to the same college. It makes me sad everything I think of it.

Dave and Dad went back to Australia. Dad has a contract to win and Dave wants to get prepared for resumption. Everything happened so quickly.

Days passed and finally we're in the second term. We already moved back to Australia.

Karen, wake up. You'll be late to school.

I groaned. I missed the holidays. I had my bath, dressed and headed downstairs. I rushed my food and ran outside. John drove us to school.

Damn, we're late. We snuck passed out chemistry teacher and ran towards our class. I can't be in detention on the first day of resumption.

Karen, Michelle hugged me. I miss you.

I chuckled,you saw me two weeks ago.

Still doesn't mean. We went to our seat. Dave went outside. She raised her hands.

Jack gave me this ring. He proposed to me to be his girlfriend.

Wow,I said in shock. He even proposed to you. Lucky you. Congratulations.

Thanks,she smiled. Hey don't you have a boyfriend.

No,I don't need one. I just want to pass all my exams and enter college.

You look sad. Spill it out who hurted you.

No one,I laughed. You worry too much.

If you say so,she giggled.

Class started. They basically revised last term work. Well not all teachers. Some taught new term's work.

Dave focused on his books. He didn't talk to anyone including Rose and Jade.

I don't why but a smile came on my lips.

We went to the cafeteria. It's lunch time. Jack and Michelle sat together. Giggling at each other. I sighed, lucky her.

I went up to the roof top. It's like my " only me spot". I didn't know Rose followed me.

Dave,she wrapped her hands around me. I miss you.

I shoved her hands off me. Don't ever do that to me.

Butt,am I not you love. Are you in a bad mood.

Point of correction, you're not my love and you'll never be. Leave I need some time alone.

What am I to you then.

I faced her,a slut. You're a slut to me and I only eat you for fun. Now never come to me again.

You're dumping me because of Jade. After everything we had.

Leave and don't come back to me again.

She left in anger and I lit my cigarette. I need to cut them out of my life. Karen's words flashed through my mind,"can't you see I want you". Crazy girl.

Rose ran downstairs and entered the class. She went straight to Jade and slapped her across the face.

How dare you steal Dave from me. Because of you he dumped me. Students gathered around them.

Jade slapped her back. It is you that allowed Dave to dump me. You're always around him. Now he dumped me and it's all because of you.

Rose slapped Jade and she slapped hers back. In no time they fighting pulling each other hair. Some students filmed their fight and some tried to separate them.

The chemistry teacher came in and took them to the principal office.

I can't believe they're fighting because of Dave. So childish. Michelle mocked them.

A smile caught my lips. That's what you get when you try to steal what's mine. I'm so happy.

They got a week suspension for causing ruckus in the school and not setting a good example for their juniors and also one week to clean the whole cafeteria. Their fight is all over the school blog. I'm just so happy. I still have the chance to be Dave's girlfriend.

Oh Karen,I spoke to myself. You take things extra far.

School's over and John drove us home. I sat beside Dave this time.

I caught Karen smiling throughout the ride home. Silly girl.

We got home and I jogged happily to my room. Feels so good to be myself again. Rose and Jade are out of the topic.

I took a shower and went downstairs to have lunch.

You've been smiling all day. Anything making you happy.

Nothing,I'm just happy.

I smirked. Silly girl.

I want to go out. I'm bored at home.

No, you'll stay at home and do your assignments.

Stop acting like an elder brother. I'll do it when I come back.

No, you'll stay at home.

No,fine let's play a game. If I win you take me out and I'd I lose I'll stay at home. Deal

Deal. So what's the game.

Hmm,I tried to think. Let's play rock, paper scissors.

Seriously,I rolled my eyes.

C'mon it's the best I got.

Fine,as you wish.

Rock, paper scissors. He did a rock and I did a paper.

I win,I jumped up happily. I'll go get dressed. I went back to my room.

Silly girl.

I dressed and headed downstairs. He drove his bike.

He parked and I got down.

So you wanna watch a movie.

Shh,I pushed him. Go get me tickets.

He bought tickets and handed me the popcorn and smoothie.

We went inside the cinema and the movie started to play.

I watched her laugh at every funny part of the movie.

The movie lasted for two hours. It was over and we left the cinema.

I want to go to a karaoke hangout.

Seriously,I rolled my eyes.

Yes,I won so you've to take me where ever I want.

Yes ma'am,I said sarcastically.

I hopped on his bike and he drove me to the karaoke hangout.

I had fun singing. I deserve this enjoyment.

I watched her sing and dance like a five year old child.

She got tired and we headed back home.

He opened the door and I entered. I sat on the couch tiredly.

You've had fun. Go do your assignments.

Hey,I'm tired.

Blah,blah, blah. Go do it.

Yyy,I groaned. I went upstairs and changed my clothes. I did my assignment except for one. It's quite hard.

Knock. Knock

Come in. I entered his room. Help me with my assignment. I don't understand it

Okay. I studied the equation. It's simple. See. I took my pen and explained to her.

I couldn't help but to stare at his body.

Hey,he hit me with his pen. Focus on the equation and not me.

Yes boss. He explained the equation and I understood. Damn he's smart.

I envy your brain,I said tiredly.

Envy yours not mine. I yawned and watched him work. I placed my head on his table and in no time slept off.
