It was the next day as the time was ten a.m, It was recess time in high school as some students were going to the cafeteria and were talking and eating, Right now Anne was in the classroom as She was looking at Her phone camera.

Winters kept looking at herself before she closed the phone as She was thinking about Carriette and was hoping that she was doing okay and everything was fine in her school, Anne was in deep thoughts until she got a call as She snapped out of her thoughts and looked at the Caller ID.

It was her landlord, Anne hasn't payed rent for four months due to some issues as Anne sighed and was a bit busy to talk as She let the phone ring.

He called her three times but Anne didnr answer the phone as Anne just laid her head on the table from tiredness.

Suddenly she got a message as She opened her phone and saw that it was a voice message as Anne played it.

???: Psst! Anne, Meet me outside! I'm standing outside the school gate.

Anne stared as She looked through the window and saw her best friend standing as Anne raised an eyebrow and messaged her that she was busy and is not allowed to leave school but her friend was so stubborn and and kept convincing her as she had had no choice but to meet her.

Soon, Anne was looking through her purse as she was outside the gate until she saw her friend.

Her name was Lexi Kaufmen. She is twenty eight years old and works in a beauty salon.

Lexi: Heyyy Anne!!!

Anne: Hey Lexi, I can't believe you actually sneaked inside here. What if somebody saw you??

Lexi: Sorry sis, Just wanted to see you.

Anne raised an eyebrow as Lexi smirked and laughed as Anne sighed and smiled a little.

Anne: Anyways, How are you?

Lexi: I'm doing fine! You?

Anne: I'm good, Just exhausted though.

Anne fixed her hair as Lexi looked at her and felt a bit sad for her, She knew how exhausted Anne would be because of her life.

Lexi: Its okay Anne, Just be strong okay? You will manage.

Anne: *Smiles* I know, I'll try to be strong.

Lexi: *Smiles* Be strong for Carrie.

Anne nodded and smiled at her as Lexi smiled and decided to change the subject.

Lexi: So, Is your students behaving?

Anne: *Laughs* Yes they are, Except the jocks.

Lexi: Hahahaha typical jocks, But they better listen to your warnings because we have to take your warnings seriously.

Anne: Your right but I seriously hope they stop bullying those students.

Lexi nodded as Anne and Lexi were talking to eachother before Lexi had to leave as Anne went inside the school again.

Four hours past as schools were done, Alot of students were leaving as Anne was texting Lexi about something before she closed her phone and was thinking about something.

About Ten minutes past, Anne was doing something until she checked the time and realised she was late, Her eyes were widen as she quickly took her bag and ran quickly to get Carriette, She was in deep thinking that she almost forgot the time, Anne quickly walked past the students as she had to be fast.

Anne wad outside as quickly got in the car as she felt worried and started driving towards Carriette's school.

Soon, She reached the school and already saw most of the kids were gone as Anne got out of the car and looked around.

Anne: Carriette???

Anne was looking around and noticed that she wasn't in the school gate as Anne was running around and asked the security guard where she was.

Winters's panic started to rise until Anne heard something and turned.

She saw someone riding a motorcycle as The wind blew as Anne turned and saw Carriette was sitting in the motorcycle with a man as Anne was shocked. Carriette ans the man were wearing a helmet.

He was laughing as Carriette was cheering as Anne ran towards the motorcycle, Soon The man stopped the motorcycle as Carriette looked at the man.

Carriette: This is fun! I wanna ride a motorcycle when I grow up!

Man: *Laughs* I'm sure you will look awesome. . . *Takes Carriette's helmet off* Hey, Where is your parents by the way?

Carriette: My Mom hasn't came here ye- *Has a huge smile on her face* Mommy is here!

The man looked confused and turned as Carriette started jumping and pointing

Carriette: My Mom is right there, Sir!

The man turned as Anne ran towards Carriette as Anne grabbed and hugged her as The man was standing and looked.

Anne: Carriette! Oh my gosh, You scared me. I told you to not go anywhere and stay in the school gate.

Carriette: I'm sorry Mom, But I loved the motorcycle.

Anne looked and saw the man as He removed the helmet as Anne saw who it was.

Anne looked at the man as Seth was standing awkwardly before he gave a smile as Carriette was talking to Anne and explained how fun was the motorcycle ride as Anne hugged he'd daughter and kissed her in the forehead as Seth looked at Anne and kept staring at her face.
