A Kingdom of Secrets

Part 12: A Picture Can Tell a Thousand Words

Flora and John were picking up the pictures on the floor when he realized that the pictures were from the Fall Ball with him and the "mystery girl."
"What's this Flora," John repeated for the second time while Flora was still looking at the floor. Marc passed by and saw the pictures all over the floor,
"Hey Flora, do you need help with those?" Flora looked up at him,
"Oh yeah, um no it's ok I just need to..." Flora was saying flustered shoving the photos into her bag and rushing off. John knew something was off and Marc was watching him very carefully making sure John wasn't trying anything on Flora. John had snuck one of the photos and put it in his back pocket. Marc noticed what John did,
"Hey dude, what is that is that one of Floras because I don't know if she'd want you to-"
"This is mine, and you should be careful with what you say and do." John state my suspiciously walking off. Marc rolled his eyes and took out his phone to text Flora,
Hey, I don't know how you feel about this but I just saw John sneak one of those pictures of yours, I tried to stop him but he told me to be careful what I say and do.
Beep beep
Flora opened her knew text message.
Thanks for letting me know that's weird that he would take it um... I'll handle it.
Flora lied. Flora immediately texted Mariposa and Marigold,
Guys John will figure it out and he has a picture!
Mariposa responded,
I'm confused is this a good or a bad thing?!
Marigold joined in,
Yah, is it good or bad.
Flora answered,
It's bad very bad! I thought we were finished with this and he's with Mylie ew but yah.
Beep Beep
Flora got a new text message, but it wasn't from Mariposa and Marigold, it was from John,
