Chapter 8
After school, we went straight to Kate's house. Yesterday, we didn't do anything but just talked. Today, we'll be doing a sketch plan. Like, what date do we go to these place and why is it interesting.
We were currently seating on the floor of her room whilst her phone starts ringing.
"Hello, Scarlet." she said to the other line.
"I'm busy right now. So bye" she said before hanging up.
"Why are you friends with them?" I mean all of them, pretty much have a fucked up attitude.
"Because I met Kiera"
"So?"
"She's worth to stay and hang out with them"
"Why can't you hang out with her alone?"
"As much as I want to, I can't. I kept pulling her away from the popular crowd, but I realized that she doesn't want too. Because not only does she want to prevent her sister's attitude in getting worst, if that's even possible but also she's in love with Alexander Carter." she emphasized the word 'love' and rolled her eyes. Like I said before, she doesn't believe in the word 'love'.
"So is she like your best friend now?" I can't help but be a bit offended because after I left she managed to find a best friend to replace me.
"Well, I can't say were best friends because she only opened up to me, a few days ago. I haven't really opened up about my past to her. And she can't replace my best friend back in New York." I am flattered about that. Even when I met Camille; Kate is still the best friend that I couldn't and never replace. I can't blame her if she can't easily trust someone even when it's Kiera. I mean I don't know her and I'm not saying she should trust her instantly but how she talked about Kiera, it's like she's really a nice girl. And I trust in what she described Kiera.
I bet she's not opening up to anyone recently which hurt me the most because the only person who she trusted and poured all her feelings to was me and I left her, but I did it with a purpose. I didn't want her to be involved in my problem that's why I left her. But I didn't know she's also suffering it because now she doesn't have anyone to open up. I just hope she could trust, Lauren Candice.
Should I ask her if she trust me?
"It's weird how I just met you after Kiera but I really trust you but not Kiera. I think it's the connection we have. It's like, you're the best friend who left me." she quietly said the last part.
"What?" I asked her confused.
"You said 'Should I ask her if she trust me' so I replied how I trust you and all. I knew you were talking about me with your head" my eyes widen. Did I just have said that out loud? That's so embarrassing. Now, she probably thinks I talk with my head a lot. Well, it's true but I don't want anyone to know that.
"What's the name of your best friend backed in New York?" I asked her.
"Well, I have three but I only opened up to one of them," she said
"So what's their name and whose the girl you opened up to?" I asked her.
"Theresa Olsen also known as 'T' , is the nerdiest of us all. She's like an angel, I must say. She's the teacher's pet. She's the one who always get conscious when we do something that's illegal or labeled 'dangerous' to her" she laughed and I did as well. All the things we've done, she would always tell us what are the consequences. And Jessica loves to push her buttons.
"GUYS, I have a bad feeling about these" T says and we all rolled our eyes to her.
"You're being a coward," K told her.
"Well, I don't want to be thrown to jail. I still have so many plans in the future. Do you want to be stuck in jail." She told us.
"I know we'll be caught, but I'm okay being stuck with all of you guys," J smirked. T's mouth was hung opened when J said that.
"Close your mouth, honey" I cooed to her and we all laughed. We know we wouldn't get caught and if we do, we know how to bail ourselves out without our parents knowing.
"Do we really have to do this?" she asked us and like the millionth times, we rolled our eyes.
"Do you have to ask stupid questions?" J said with full of annoyance laced on her voice and T glared at her.
"Plus, your ex-cheated on you so his school deserves to be vandalized." Kate said with full of hatred, but I know why. Kate hates the school as much as I do but with a different and a deeper reason. The principal before Ms. Cruz our recent principal, treated Kate and me as daughters of hers and clockwise. After she found out that her bastard of a husband, who she apparently is in love with cheated on her with another principal, which is the principal of this school. And the worst part, they were twin sisters. Yes, they are. She was so devastated that she suicide after our competition held here. She couldn't take it how she saw her ex-husband in the same event making out with her twin sister.
We all attended her funeral and Kate and I really cried for weeks, but we've been moving on, only to find out that T is dating someone from that school. Nobody knows except me and Kate because Ms. Dallas (our principal before) has this secret box hidden in a secret place and Kate and I were the only ones who knew where it is. After the burial, Kate and I stayed back and went after that hidden place. We saw a letter inside the box. A lot of people until now thought she had a heart attack, but the truth was, she suicide. She told us everything in that letter. She told us the reason behind it; which is because of her ex-husband and her twin, and how much she really did love us and she wants us to move on after this and etc.
We wanted T to break up with the quarterback of that school, but we can't because we saw how happy she was to finally have her first boyfriend, so we let him be. Then after weeks, we discovered that he was cheating on T with another girl. The girl was the cheerleader of their school and a plain bitch. So we decided to mess around with their school tonight.
"I don't think it's really necessary to involve his whole school." T said.
"Shush and let's finish what we came here for." J said and we grinned with the exceptional of T. They all looked at me to hear out the plan I made.
"You do the gym and the all their courts," I ordered T. She was still scared but will still do it.
"Do the halls and don't forget to leave art there," I ordered J.
"And of course, you can do the class. Don't forget to put complete damage towards the class," she nodded eagerly.
"I'll be doing the principal's office," I said proudly and we all left. After our complete damage, we escaped as soon as possible before anyone could catch us. It was a mystery to everyone who vandalized their school and nobody was suspicious about us doing that.
"She must be like Kiera," I said to her.
"I bet if she's here. She'll be great buddy-buddy with Kiera" she said.
"Why didn't she come with you here?" I asked her.
"She's dead." I saw tears going out of her eyes, but she wiped it.
Months after the vandalize, T found a new boyfriend. They were inseparable and Kate and I didn't like the fact that T was starting to act like a bitch because of him. He was literally a jerk. I couldn't take any longer watching them in the opposite couch. I think I'm going to be sick.
I decided to go upstairs and I heard steps behind me but they probably someone else who's also going upstairs. I was about to close the door when a foot prevented it. I saw Zylen Woody, T's new boyfriend.
"May I help you?" I monotonously asked him.
"Can I have a kiss? Always wanted to kiss you even before Theresa and I got together." What the actual fuck is he saying? I knew he was a jerk, but I didn't know he was a player as well. So, I did what I had to do. I slapped him.
He pushed me to the bed and tried ripping my clothes. I kept crying for help, but nobody was there. I kept kicking him. Not after minutes, Kate came in and pushed him away. She helped me out only to be pushed by him to the bed. He starts undressing Kate so I did what I could only do. I grabbed the vase and smacked it on his head. After that, he fell and you could practically see blood everywhere. It was scary. I grabbed Kate and we both ran towards the hall and I knew what I should have done.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm calling the police"
"Are you insane? Becca, think of what will happen to us"
"I don't have any other option" I can't just let Kate be involved. She only tried saving me. She shouldn't be involved.
"Becca! Becca! Look-" her voice started fading as I start going further away.
▪▪▪▪▪▪
"Mom! Mom!" I kept calling for her after bursting out of the door.
"Becca, what happened?" she asked me.
"Could you please book a flight to New Zealand right now." I pleaded.
"Sure, honey. If you want a vacation in the middle of a school term."
"No! I want to change school and I don't want anybody else to know where we are and etc. I want us to go their low profile." I told her.
▪▪▪▪▪▪
We are currently at the airport, waiting for our flight to be announced. I was thinking of what happened just now, I still couldn't wrap every event that happened. My phone starts beeping and I took it out. I received so many phone calls from Kate and two messages from the same unknown number. I opened the message.
THERESA OLSEN IS DEAD
and then the other text says
BECAUSE OF YOU
I went to the airport toilet and cried. She probably suicides because she found out I killed her boyfriend. I'm so messed up. But how did she found out about it?
The events were still fresh in my memory. But I snapped back to reality when she starts talking.
"Then there's Jesica Diane also known as J. She's the badass of the school. People said she's a bitch and she is but except to us." I still wonder why'd she left when Jessica Diane is still there.
"The last but not the least, the girl I only opened up to aside my grandmother. She's Becca Skyler also known as B. But the whole school calls her Queen B because she's like the queen of everything. She's damn talented. She's an great and an amazing person. But that doesn't mean she doesn't have a bad side. Probably not much people actually notice it." she said. So I guess she did open up to her grandmother.
"What bad side?"
"She's a total coward. She doesn't want to face her problems. And she leaves her best friend behind without saying goodbye." I was totally offended but at least she's telling me these.
"She probably had a good reason behind it."
"She didn't even know what I had gone through that day or the other followings months after she disappears," she grumbled. What happened?
