Have a good afternoon Wen.

-------------------------

3 YEARS AGO:

Lips trembling, I bolt out of class when the finale bell rings. Rushing down the hall, hoping not to be caught in a crowd of students. Sadly, I'm too late, I get tangled in the web and I'm cared with the sea of classmates. I needed to get the hell out of here, now. Pushing my way past everyone, squeezing through the cracks, I finally make it out the doors. Spotting John talking to his long time crush Heather.

I grab him by his wrist and pull him away from the girl and towards my car.

"Hey!" He calls out, offended.

"Look I don't feel well, we are going home now so I can go see Dr. Randy to see what's up, all right?" I dig through my bag, scrambling to find my keys, as John hops in the already unlocked car. Finding them, I raise them up in success.

"All right." I hear a voice call out from behind my head. The beach blond boy stands behind me, his hands snaking around my waist.

"Caspar, I must go now." I tell him strictly, ripping him off my body. I whip my hand around to look him in the eyes, his lips crashing into mine. It's short, I pull away fast and get into the automobile.

"Have a good afternoon Wen, I'll call you tonight." He waves, headed back to his twin sister. I break a sweat, beginning to worry for Caspar's health. If I was truly sick, he could be too.

I throw the thought aside, and drive fast home. Dropping John off at the house and then racing to the doctor'a office.

"Shit." I mumble, the guilt of getting Caspar sick making my cheeks burn. My stomach tied in knots, I couldn't think straight.
