I yawn at the Romeo and Juliet film we're busy watching at English Literature class. I was enjoying the class when it started but that all ended when people started getting cosy with each other...

...you know, holding hands, cuddling.

Uugh. It's all giving me nostalgia.

Some are even kissing !

Like, hey Susan, we're in class for God's sake.

The bell rings marking the end of English Literature. I run out of class and seconds later I find myself strolling the school's hall.

I navigate myself through other students till I reach my locker. My eyes scan Charlie's closed black locker and a pang if sadness and worry sweeps over me.

It has been five days since I last saw her. That is, at my dad's wedding. I tried calling her dozens of times but her phone switches to voice mail at the fourth ring.

Since today is friday, I'll go visit Charlie tomorrow at her house.

I really do hope she's okay.

I place my literature books in my locker and run to the changing room. I get dressed in my gym clothes that consists of a white jersey t-shirt with the name Quinn kali graphed at the back, a pair of blue shorts, knew length blue socks with white stripes and white sneakers.

Yay exercise...

I pep talk myself but guess what, it doesn't work.

When I get to the gym, the obstacles set are very intimidating. It's like they were designed to kill people's spirit and reap out their souls.

I grunt in displeasure and join the others.

"Let the torturing begin."

"Why are you walking like that princess ?" Kel asks as I head for my locker.

"Gym" I groan and he let's out a mocking laugh.

"It's not funny." I warn.

"It is." He insists.

I playfully punch him and he shrugs off.

"Soo... your letter from NYU came back ?" Kel asks.

I had told Kel about my interests in NYU around two months ago. I'm impressed he still remembers.

"Yeah, but I haven't opened it yet." I answer truthfully.

"Why ?"

"I don't know. Maybe I'm scared that they rejected me."

"No way Sky. You're the smartest person I know... I mean, apart from Oren." He says and I laugh.

"You just had to ruin the damn moment."

"Yeah I had to. Oren too got accepted at NYU. So he kind of is smarter than you."
